My Ideal Job

I can’t say what is really my Ideal Job, actually I have asked myself that since I have memory, and I still can´t resolved. But there’re some things that I have clear, and is that I want to contribute as much as I can in this society. Obviously someday I would like to have a family, so I want to do something that brings me resources and makes me live without fear. But more than anything I would like that all people have the same social rights and the same conditions to work, in those conditions I would like to work.

I know which are my main qualities and skills, so that clarify more my future job. I can be a good student, so I could develop myself in an investigation job. I'm good writing too (in Spanish still), and someday perhaps I want to teach in university.

Another important aspect to choose a job, and is a reason for what I decided to study anthropology, is that I would like to know many countries and travel through the world, that would be amazing.

But meanwhile, I'm still a soul in crisis who is trying to council my ideas with the request of this capitalist society.

Second Semester 2013

My experience using blogs in the English Class

I think that it was difficult for me to create the habit of writing before the deadline, because to me it's difficult to write without an inspiration, and sometimes inspiration was delaying in coming. So, for futures students I would recommend that they should finish the post in class, because then is very difficult to continue with the idea, almost for me.  I think that it's very innovative to write a blog in class,  is necessary to test new types of education; but I think that I would like more to speech more in English, primarily to learn a better accent (I must confessed that I love English accent, I hate the farmer-American accent). I'm not sure that the exercise of writing a blog helped me significantly to improve my English, but it gave me the desire of write a personal blog, in this one I would like to write about politics mainly. I would not change anything essential to the way the blog is written, certainly, topics of the post could be more varied. I remember that once that I was writing a post, I felt like in school I used to be more creative, and write maybe was easier to me, and then I realized that school and high school mostly makes students become flatter. I saw a study months ago i think that talked about that, how cognitive ability decreases. Well, I think that I can post about that someday. Now, the only way to face it, is to thinking, to question and writing.

My favourite subject

My favourite subject this semester was "anthropology 1". I liked this subject because was the only course that allowed me a real approach to the anthropological discipline. In classes teacher spoke about major authors of anthropology, So I realised that almost all anthropology theories come from sociology. The subject gave me a lot of knowledge and at the same time many doubts. But most importantly aspect that more I rescue is that it made me think and develop argumentative skills. So, the subject bring me the things that I expected when I decided to study this career: to anderstand The Human.
In the subject we made a route through main currents of the anthrology history, since  first evolutionists, cultural relativists, structuralist, postmodernists, Between others. Classes were very didactic, I think, because teachers tried to include students in the discussion. Different classes were dicted by different teachers, depending on their specialty. First, was the profesor Gissi, then Was Marcelo Gonzalez, and then it supposed to be profesor Quiroz, but after time that faculty was in a stop because of Mobilizations ( I’m trying to not involve polic themes here, but I think all aspects of life to some extent are political, so is inevitable).

Up to the moment, I consider myself as an historical materialist :)

La sociedad de la Igualdad

Francisco Bilbao

Do you recognize the sovereignty of the reason as authority of authorities?
Do you recognize the sovereignty of the people as base of all politics? 
Do you recognize the love and universal brotherhood as moral life?.

"La Sociedad de la Igualdad" (The society of the Equality) was a political Chilean organization founded by the intellectuals Francisco Bilbao y Santiago Arcos in 1850, during the conservative Republic initiated in 1831.

The Society of Equality raised the need of a revolutionary transformation of the society that would give beginning to a nation of free and equal men. They  attempted to mobilize artisans and the popular sectors. This Society was influenced by the ideals of the French revolution and the Utopian Socialism.

The utopian socialism was born in europe in the lates 1700 and earlies 1800. It emerges with the industrial revolution as a response to the miseries that the insdustry and urbanitation brought. The best known utopian (intellectuals from the bourgeoisie) were Saint Simon, Fourier and Owen, none of them proposed to emancipate a class but the whole humanity.

The historian Julio Godio says that the fact was that the utopic socialism in latinamerica acted a lot of times as a substitute of a consistent bourgeois liberal ideology and, under the wrapper of a generically socialist ideology, a democratic strategy was formulated. In spite of this, the Utopian socialism would have sowed in latinoamerica the seed of this new socialist ideology, which hereinafter would be defined by the "anarcosindicalismo" and the Marxist socialism.

"My favourite piece of technology"

I'm going to talk about my computer, because, actually I'm not sure of loving technology, but my notebook is almost the only piece of technology I use. Sometimes I miss an Mp3 or something to hear music, but -although it sounds a bit stupid- when I was at school someone stole my mp3, and after that I never became to buy another mp3.
I have this computer since 3 and a little more years ago. I needed it because before having it I used to share the house computer with my younger brothers, and in "hight school" I started to need more and more the computer to do my  homework, been conecting with people, boyfriend and that kind of stuff.

When I talk about the computer, basically I mean the internet. I don't like that now everything depends on online communication, university homework, university official information, conversations, etc. Sometimes I think that the nineties had many good things.

We agree that the computer has many good things, such as the spread of information and unofficial news, social networks, which allows to unite people in a world so fragmented, but there're certain myths about internet that I think should be taken down, par exemple, the fact that internet facilitates easy access to information, sometimes internet information  becomes lush and confused, and for trying to achieve everything, you learn just a little.

If I didn't have my computer, everything would be a bit chaotic, more than it already is with the computer, because, as I said recently, everything turns around technology, and emails and computers ...
