Post 4 - Topic A

Hi everyone!

Today I'm going to talk about my favorite meal.

Well, I must recognize that my favorite dish is the paste or rather the noodles. I think is a delicious meal and at the same time can be very versatile regarding its ways of eating, for example can be eaten with tomato sauce, white sauce, with vegetables, with chicken, with meat, with vegetarian meat, with pesto sauce and many other ways. In my case por example, I don't usually eat paste with meat or chicken, but I really enjoy the other forms. 

Generally, the ingredients to cook home-made paste are: wheat fluor, egss, salt and water, but also there is the option of instant noodles, which is in fact a good decision in the case there is not much time to cooking or if you are not a fan of cooking. Actually, both forms are valid and respectable. 

Honestly, I think that the paste is great, but eating it in excess is not healthy because our bodies needs more functional foods, not only carbohydrates. 

Bye, thanks for your time!

Gender roles and stereotypes

Hi everyone!

Today I'm going to talk about gender roles in the society.

When I was kid I went to a mixed gender school and also then in the high school. I think that was a right decision for part of my parents because honestly I believe that the single sex-schools generate more stereotypes instead of being a help for the society, an explample of this are catholic schools, where predomine a religious ideology and specific rules are imposed for girls and boys. 

Today, I think that although the society has chaged some aspects, still needs to be improved further because is impossible that the wage gap remains a reality, I mean, is unfair that a woman receive a low salary, while a man receive a high salary and both do the same job. 

In my opinion, I hope that the future generations can be more conscientious and gender equality can exist.

Sometimes I think that if I had the possibility to change my sex, I wouldn't because there is a commintment with a fight about famele gender that I feel part of, I mean, there are still things to change.

Bye, thanks for your time!

Post 3 - My favorite piece of technology

 Hi everyone!

Today I'm going to talk about my favorite piece of technology.

While it is true that with the new digital era there are many technological objects, we use them more and more. 

I must recognize that recently the computer is the object I use the most because I can watch series and movies, do my homework, meet virtually with my friends and edit my audiovisual proyects in Adobe Premiere for the university.

Honestly, one of the negative consequences is damages the eyesight and also can cause bad back posture.

I think I recommend the computer, but as long as its use is not extremely excessive because technology can be a big help, but also can be very problematic and harmful for us and our lives.

Finally, I can say that to have a good relationship with the technology in general, we must learn to divide and prioritize our times, I mean we can enjoy, but with responsability and conscience.

Bye, thanks for your time!

Important days and dates

 Hi everyone!

Today I'm going to talk about one of my favorite celebrations around the world.

In this oportunity, I chose the Balloon Festival in Taunnggyi, Myanmar. This event is celebrated during the previous week to the full moon in November, which consists of a typical fair with atractions, food stands and craft stands. But nevertheless, the most distinguishing fact of this celebration is the hot air balloon contest, that have hand painted decorations and candles inside. These balloons are huge and exists a big variety of forms and colors, that are launched at night.

Certainly, one of the most important traditions of this festival is community work because people meet in groups to create their balloons.

In my opinion, I think this event is very visually attractive and has a lot of happy vibes.

Post 2 - Why did you choose this career?

 Hello everyone!

Today I´m going to talk about my academic decisions.

Honestly, when I was child I usually played with my kitchen toys, medical toys and also sometimes I like to design clothes for my barbies, but I can´t remember with precision if I had a dream job at that moment.

After the PDT, when were the postulations, one of my other career options was history pedagogy because the history is something that interests me and I thought it was great to be able to teach it, but my first option always was cinema and tv because I really love movies and I like all the develpment that exists to generate audiovisual pieces.

For the moment I can say that my experience at the university is good because there are dynamic classes, there are good teachers and the partners are friendly. 

Honestly, I'm not sure if in a few years I will be working inside the audiovisual world, because it's too early to think about it...

Bye, thanks for your time!

Tools of the trade

 Hello everyone!

Now I don't haven´t got a cat because I'm allergic to them fur, this is very sad to me because I love cats, I think are adorable, but whenever I have the oportunity to have one near, I can't resist and I caress it, no matter what the consequences and on the other hand I don´t want to have a car in the future because I'm very nervous and anxious to drive, honestly I'm very afraid the trucks and the buses, I panic to be shocked by them and also I would be very afraid of catching a dog or an animal, I would never forgive myself. 

Thanks for your time, bye!

Post 1 - Who am I

 Hello everyone!

Today I'm going to tell  you a little about me.

I'm Martina Rodríguez, I'm 19, I was born in Santiago and today I live in Puente Alto.  

Last year I started to study cinema and tv at the Universidad de Chile and for the moment I can say that I'm satisfied with that decision, but I'm sure that may change, because people change their minds constantly.

I live with my parents, my mom's name is Alejandra, she was born in Santiago, specifically in Calera de Tango and my father's name is Sergio, he was born in Chillan, but large part of his life he lived in Santa Cruz. I have a sister, her name is Valentina, we are both have a distance of 10 years, but we don't live together because she lives in Rancagua. 

One of my favorite hobbies is watch movies, actually my favorite movies are the triology of The Lord of the Rings, I love fantasy.

Another thing that really interests me is the zodiac signs and their characteristics, by the way my zodiac sign is cancer.

Bye, thanks for your time!
