Hi

Blog 7: My Favorite Character  This blog in particular is very difficult for me because I have so many favorites characters from different series, but for this opportunity I’m picking one from an anime that I recently watch: Boku No Hero Academia. The plot of the story began when in our world, suddenly and with no explication, the majority of the babies born with super-powers. Years after, this condition became the new normal for almost everyone and being a hero become to settle as a job, even schools were build to learn how to become one. In this context Ochako Urakara appears, a girl who is applying to become an U.A.’s student, the most prestigious school for super heroes in Japan. Her power is called Zero Gravity and consists on manipulate the gravity of objects and people by touching them, for example, she can make a car weightless and throw it into the air like a paper ball. A drawback of her power is that if she used it too much, she will be suffer from nausea and pos...

Blog 6: Postgraduate Studies In terms of my postgraduate studies I’m still figure it out because I have more than one option. For example, I would like to know more about gender studies; in fact I’m interested on doing my thesis related to communication with a gender approach or something related to the drag queen culture. Also, I really enjoy writing, so I would love to study a degree associated to creative writing and maybe in the future be able to work as a scriptwriter. And on the other hand, I really like the course that ICEI offer about Communication and Cultural Management. I like the idea of creating my own cultural agency and work on development projects related to encourage Chilean art; so as you can read I’m a little bit all over the place. One thing that I know for sure is that I would love to study anything on other country, but I’m not in a rush so I think maybe I study something here in Chile first (besides my actual career) and then I would make plans to go outs...

Blog 5: My future job I am currently working on a Chilean music radio show called Estación Local, where I lead a small section in which I talk about new and emerging Chilean music. Besides that, one of the things that I really enjoy doing for the program is organize and produce events outside of the studio: illustration’s fairs and small festivals. So in the future I would love to create or work in a cultural management organization that allows me to produce this type of events on a larger scale. I love working outdoors, but I don’t mind working indoors either. In fact, a lot of the works that I do for Estación Local is at the Radio JGM’s studios, but my favorite part of working on the show, as I said, is produce events outside of our studio. I would love to have the chance to travel because of my job. I like the idea of meeting new and talented people from all around the world, sharing our experiences and inspire us to create new things. In terms of the salary, I just hope to...

Blog 4: Jimmy´s Hall Review I don’t love the film, but I don’t hate it either. I think the plot is great and knowing that is based on a true story make it more interesting.  And as I said in the last entrance, I don’t know that much about the Irish’s history, so I always appreciate learning new stuff thought a film.   My favorite character has to be Jimmy’s mother. She was so sweet and funny and also she reminds me of my grandmother, specially the scene when she pretended to lose the key so she could help Jimmy escape. One thing that I really liked about the film was all the landscapes and locations. Since the last movie that we saw,” The Wind That Shakes The Barley”, I was amaze by all the green on their fields, a color that I don’t see often in Santiago. In the other hand, I think the movie was really slow and I get lost and bored sometimes. My favorite scene was the contrast between the moment when all the people was dancing and singing at Jimmy’s Hall on opposi...

Blog 3: The Wind That Shakes The Barley Review I’m not a “war drama film” kind of person, so I didn’t enjoy that much the movie. However, I can appreciate the historical importance of the story and plus now I have a closed idea of the Irish culture and history. My favorite characters were Damien and Sinear. I think that the construction of Damien character is very realistic and human, showing his insecurities and doubts at first and then his loyalty and determination, I can relate to those emotions. And on the other hand I’m a big fan of strong females characters, so I really liked the role of Sinear, who gives another perspective to the story and also showed the importance of women in the Irish history. A thing that I really like about the film was the photography and the locations, I never seen pictures of the Irish lands before, so that was pretty amazing. My favorite scene was one at the beginning of the movie, when an old lady sings at the funeral of Damien’s friend who ...
