1) For me it the experience was very relaxed, with the sufficient space for the opinions of everyone, but I think that more of these were needed, is a self-criticism. For other side I think that the dedication of the teacher is the 60% of the class, personally I think that in all the classes, exclusively when one learn a language the role of the tutor is very important, because is the person that open the door of knowledge, wow! Amazing! Clap clap clap…

2) I think that now I could write a large text than before, I’m feeling more secure in that aspect, but I know that is not sufficient, so I should keep doing it, for the healthy of the world.

3) I would like to include more grammatical tips. I enjoy to learn the structure of the language and start the emancipation of the teacher and transform myself in my own UBERTEACHER.

4) I think that if the class were more short I would enjoy it more, because I like to be outside, far away from this place.

5) I would like to write about the vacations, what I’m going to do or what I wish to do.

I didn't know about the three Rs before, I think that it's very important, because today the human is always expanding. Is interesting how we learn from our mistakes. Well actually in my borough there is a plan for recycling, I always separate my junk, the glasses with the cans, the paper with cardboard and so on. I separate the organic junk and i put it into a pail and from time to time comes my uncle that he have a drawer for compost.

I think that it's very important, because we have to take charge of our pollution leading it to a sustainable way, it's in the nature of the life, occupy the resources that we have to make other useful things. The conscience of take care of our environment is responsabilty of everyone.

I contribute with this eating my yogurt with banana and oat, so I produce a lot of banana rind.

I wish I was...

-I would like to learn, rather understand how to represent the reality in the painting, I know that it's a hard point of art, we could have a very boring debate about that, but my doubt is about to how represent and make the colors that i see and how to put them in the correct form that they form what I'm seeing.

-I would like to learn how to make electronic circuits, since I was a child I felt a fondness for the electricity and his function. When i was younger I use to electrocute some Vespula Germanica, for now I'm not interested in provocate pain to other species, just to learn the laws of electricity and how I can use them to get results in the area of art specifically. I imagine that I can use that knowledge to make some installations in the future, I don't know, sometimes I think that I'm not going to paint  forever, well it's a dispute of everyday.

-Other thing that I would like to learn is to edit videos professionally, when i was in the school with my friends we use to make videos, but the editing wasn't too good, that were good times, I have enjoy that moments of distension.

EAT-IT

1) A place that i like to eat is... I don't know, I think that I don't have one. I like to eat, but thw "where" is not a big deal for me, I use to eat in the U or in my home and that's it. Generally I eat fast and I don't think in the flavor of the things, when i sit for eat I like to take that short time to think things that during the day i don't think because i don't take that time.

2) Eat food in our days it's a big thing, because the fact of eat doesn't mean that it is for nourish. The offer of food transformed the essence of what food its for, now the term of luxury is in each corner of the city. I would like to have a restaurant of food, I think that is a great business fill the belly of rubbish of other people, knowing that they are knowing that is rubbish, sounds good, easy peasy, good job, good one.

3) When I have to eat something fast while I work or I play or I do something intense, i use to eat oats with yogurt, its fast and easy, so i could invest my time under the (my) order of the life.

Lucian Freud

My presentation will be about the paintings and personal appreciations about Lucian Freud.

 I ordered my presentation in two part, the first is about his biography, where did he studied, his perceptions about his own paintings and how he understand the act of create. The second part is about my own opinion of him, and what does mean his work for me. I've chosen a simple way to present this topic, because i want to keep the freshness of the exercise and don't fall in a deep point.

Well, I've chosen him because his work mean a lot in my process of learning, I've been following his painting since i left the school and until today I think that he is a great master and I feel lucky to have lived in this time of history.

Today he is considered one of the most important contemporary figurative artists, personally I can’t say something like that, because I don’t have a global seeing but I think that the way that he works, seeing and feeling a real model and then putting the oil paint in the canvas, is a real experience.

Random Post: Mapuche Culture

I've been interested about mapuche culture, because i think that it's important to remember where we are living. Long time ago this land and the most part of Chile was inhabited of our root culture.

The Mapuche culture is very rich in every meaning, they developed they own calendar based on his studies of astrology. They practice the medicine using herbs administrated by the machi, (who could be man or woman) kind of priest that know and preserve the knowledge of their ancestors. There are different ceremonies according to the purpose, for example the Nguillatun that is for claim for rain or the Machitun that is for cure a person. Personally I have been the experience of being in a Nguillatun when I was a kid and a I got drunk with mudai… just kidding.

The social organization is distributed in communities that are under the order of a Lonko, that is the person that make the important decisions.

Well, I had experiences that  I described, because my mother worked in a foundation that help communities and farmer families to improve their own products.

Die Temperatüren, ach ja!

i been thinking about the climate of Santiago, it wears me out. At this point of the year i can not support the warmly in the microbus, in the streets, in other words i like the cold air, well here is dirty, but-. I'm from the cold, from the south, so i'm tired. I see the climate everyday on internet and it's not up of my expectations, in every part of Chile the temperature is under the twenty celcius degrees, and herethe thing is like a green house. 

But not everything are bad news, the low temperatures are coming and i'm very happy for that, because i'm going to wrap up like old times, when i use to be a southern. This is about being comfotable with my environment, the cloudy days bring peace to my mind and the feeling of being where i'm from makes feel good. 

I think that Santiago looks very nice at cloudy days, even when it's rainy, the gray color of the city combine with everything. 

maybe i'm accustomed  to melancholy and silence of the nature, i thinks that is a mental state.

HI TECH

 I would like to talk about my computer, before of it a lot of things would have been hard, but this machine opened a new world for me, and of course closed others, you know, the analog way. That is an actual problem, because we replace a digital solutions that are faster than do handmade things.

After a little discusions with my brother and my mama I accepted the offer, finishly I last would have my own computer, it was a few years ago, in 2011. After I shared a computer with my bro, but it wasn't a good experience, so now is different.

I use it everyday, is very useful since to watch sum movies, do works, play sum games, listen music and for inform myself openly about things that I'm interested. I like it a lot 'cause from time to time being connected with my distant friends, but not ever, because it turns boring.

There are bad things about using the computer, for example when i do works for the university is very stressful, i don't know, i think that is anxious of end fastest as possible. that kind of devices makes that, it makes you feel that things could be solved in a little time. Other thing that i don't like is how it take up your time, and it fly.

Now without my computer somethings would be hard to solve.

A place that I enjoyed visiting...

I want to write about a place that i've visit in the summer of 2013, i'm talking about Salto del Claro, near of Pucón, every year i go to that zone. i have many friends in there, because i lived in Villarrica and i have a very good friend that he lives in there. Well, i was there with three friends about three and a half days. We use to enjoy the landscape, the nature and obviously the cascade. the water was so cold, but in that moment it wasn't important.

 From the mountains we could see the city of Pucón and the Villarrica lake. stay there with my friends that i dont see during the year was so confortable, i'll never forget that moment, feeling the fresh wind of the evening. At the night we shared food y drinks.

hi hi, my name is Ismael Alejandro and i was born in Temuco in the south of Chile, in the nineth region of Araucanía. I'm studying Plastic Arts in University of Chile. i like to paint and observe the world, i think that art is about it.
