my favorite football team!

I'm going to talk about my favorite football team... Universidad Católica. 

On the national Championship the UC team was the best team who got the highest punctuation in the first phase, and now, there are in the final! 
The last national championship the UC team was the champions. It was an annual tournament, not six months as now, and it was just one phase, there were no playoffs, only points. In football, points are accumulated as you are playing games, if you win three points, if you lose zero points, and if you tie one point.



 I went to the stadium to watch UC’s soccer games in fifth times, the last Sunday was one of them, I went to watch the soccer game between Unión La Calera y Universidad Católica, and UC won the game! So we are in the final stage! With Universidad de Chile, this soccer game it will be on Thursday (the first game) and on Sunday, that would be the final soccer game of the national tournament… I think that I will go too; maybe we will be bi-champions!! I always like watch the Olympic lap that the winner had to do by the stadium, with the fireworks and everything, and this is the chance that I have to see it!!
This is my favorite team since I have memory, and  I think that I like this football team because my big brother, my parents, and all my family like it… since I was a little child I watch all the soccer games that UC plays. Also, I always like the football, like a sport, I play football with my brothers since I was a child, and I like it so much!

A picture that reminds me something

Me and a close friend that I have who gets birthday at the same day than I  (4th of June) have a lot of friends on common, so when we were on our 14th birthday we decided to celebrate and make a big party with all of our friends... It wasn't too massive, we were just ten, or twenty people. We ate cake, drink a lot of juice (of course, I'm and I was just a child)... Obviously we doesn`t sleep in all the night... And, when were the seven AM, Everybody has running by the house, and I don’t understand it (my friend, that she was on birthday too), and then, everybody told me that we have five minutes to go to the bus station... I didn’t understand anything... then they give to me tickets for a travel to Pto. montt... I don't know how to react at this gift... So we were running by the city to the bus station, 'cause we don't have much time. Then we stayed on Pto. montt two days, one night... That birthday was the longest party that I have... We doesn`t sleep by 50 hours!!

Now... The picture, it was taken June 04th 2008, on the square of Pto. Montt, there is a big wall, and it's all write and painted with a lot of phrases or draws... The picture was taken by me, when I was just with my other friend (who had the birthday on the same day than I) in the square, thinking about a lot of things... and all of my friends were buying a cake (yes, another one) before than I was take this picture all of my friends has singing us the Birthday song, and then a lot of strange people has singing too!! It was really funny (and shameful too)... so, this is the story about this picture, I love it, because it reminds me of all of my closed friends that they are not with me now (they are in other towns, studying in other universities, and making another life) I miss them a lot.

My favorite technologic device

My electric guitar.
When I was eleven years old, I got the fever of the music. First, I wanted to sing, but my teacher told I couldn’t, because of some problems that I have on my throat, so then I wanted to be a drummer, but a drum it was way to expensive for me… 
So then I wanted to play the piano, but there was no good teacher in the city, so I started playing the cheapest acoustic guitar that I found. First I hated it, it was so ugly and so bad, that when I bought a new electro-acoustic guitar I broke the old one, without any remorse. After a few years, I finally got enough money for my electric guitar; my beautiful white Gibson X-plorer. Since that, I became a pro guitarist. My motivation was so much, that in some weeks I was covering every song that I liked, no matter how difficult it was… There was a time in my life, where I couldn’t even feel the pain in my fingers anymore, after hours and hours of practice… I love my guitar, because it did help me out in times where I was sad; I could write a song, then playing it, and then life was better, and through the song I could understand better my sadness, so that I could go through it… I think the best way of express oneself is through music, and I’m going to keep on loving my georgeous x-plorer, ‘till the end of my days.

my favorite superhero

When I was a child I watched a lot of animated series with my big brother... and one of those series was “batman”, I can`t remember what was the official name of the serie. The real name of Batman is Bruce Wayne, he is an American superhero that fight against the crime of the town and a lot of villainous, like The Riddler, The Joker, Cat woman, Poison Ivy and other ones more (my favorite evil character is The Riddler,  I love it!).
Why Batman? I think that I like this superhero because he has no superhuman powers… he just has money (a lot …) and with it he can buy a lot of weapons, baticars, or build buticoves. Maybe I like it because I think that he could be real, exists in our world, there is no superhuman powers. When I was younger I really thought that maybe he could exists and someday rescue me.
I think that batman represents a lot of people who had money and their doesn`t knows in what spend it… Also, he represents the kind of sad and lonely people who had a lot of material things, but the only thing that they not had is love.

Person that I admire? ... ...

As I told you, I'm mechona, so I don't know too much about psychologists, or people who is connected with my career, but I have chosen one... Freud. Why? Because he's so well known, and I have little references about him.
 Freud was born on a little town that called Freiberg on may - 1856, where today it’s Checoslovaquia, and he died on 1939, on London, because his ancestry where jews, and the Nazism expelled him from the town.

Freud was an Austrian neurologist who founded the discipline of psychoanalysis. The term "psychoanalysis" means, that descriptive and explanatory theoretic model of the mechanisms, processes and phenomena involved in human mental life.

Freud tries to treat mental disorders with hypnosis, but then he looked that the treatment only works by the “hypnotic state”, and then the pathological symptoms still there. So, he decided to back to the research about psychoanalysis.

Then Freud published some studies about hysteria, and how it can be connected with sexual troubles. Also, Freud studied about the dreams, and he said: “the Dreams are not only a psychic disposable product, as was believed until now; it represents a normal psychic work full of meaning”

The studies that Freud did, was an important contribution to the current psycology.

My favorite movie


I have a lot of favorites movies, I really like to watch movies, but, as I can't talk about all of them, I had to choose one... And I chose 
A Clockwork Orange.



A Clockwork Orange is an old drama, crime and Sci-Fi movie, it was first shown on 1971 and it was directed by Stanley Kubric, a famous director expert on this kind of movies.



In the story is all about four "ultraviolent" friends that like seeing and making violence. 


There is a scene where they go to a house of a woman, and they steal things form the house, and they hit, rape and kill the woman, in my opinion is the most hard scene of the movie, in what respects to physical violence. The principal character is Alex DeLarge, and the story shows how, because of the violence, he stands alone and crazy, 'cause he's arrested and convicted of murder and rape, and his friends are not, so, Alex is sentenced to a new treatment that the government creates, "ludovico's program". 




This program is about creating shocks through images containing ultraviolence on a big screen, applying some classic music.


They force Alex to do the treatment. The objective of this treatment is to make him better, 'cause he's completely insane, and SICK. So, when, he becomes "healthy", he finishes his sentence and he is finally released. When he's free he sees his other three friends, and two of them were cops. They hit Alex... the others "ultraviolent" friends became "normal" people... without being convicted for their crimes. When Alex came out of the treatment he got a terrible trauma... He can`t listen to classic music anymore, 'cause when he listens to it, he goes crazy...  In the final scenes, Alex goes to the house of a writer, whose wife had been raped by the ultraviolent guys before. The writer dopes Alex, and he locks him in a room, meanwhile, in the other rooms of the house, classic music starts sounding (the same that Alex listened in ludivico's treatment), and he jumps from the window, 'cause he can't stand it.
Then Alex get a long recovery on the hospital, and the guy who was in charge of ludovico's treatment, offers him a "good" job, whit a good remuneration; he will be the face of the new political campaign showing how the Ludovicos Program works.  Then the movie shows a little surreal fantasy,  Alex in the snow, and telling to us that "he was completly healthly".
I chose this movie, cause i think that is great, and it shows how some treatments, or sentences can destroy the life of a person, who, indeed, was a "bad" person, but, what is the limit to try to make it a better person? When the human rights can't be respected an when they can apply this sentences that destroy the life of the people? A criminal is a sick person? We are going to change it destroying his human essence?

I really, REALLY recommend this movie, it could change your way of thinking, and show you another way to see life; if violence comes from biological or social facts.


So, here is the trailer.... watch it!
