18 of the Bicentennia

The bicentenary ceremony of the bicentennial has a very important historical value for our country, as more than celebrate 200 years of the independence of our republic, is a forum to put in the balance as we have grown as a country. Just live the bicentennial of Chile and we realized that is more than going to armadas, going to elevates comets or meet with the family to a barbecue. As I write a personal opinion why is it so important to highlight the traditions and appreciating our history as unique and special for each Chilean should represent mush more than ever recall the 200 years of Chilean history and proud of it.

Despite the tragedies that have rocked our country, we have managed to get ahead and excel, helping the needy for the earthquake and tsunami and pending second to second what was happening in north of our country with tragedy of the 33 miners. These are the achievements for which we should feel proud, a country committed to its people and solidarity, not only of the tragedies that shook us, but also carried out campaigns, such as the Teletón. It is for these achievements and many more who deserved Chile celebrate the bicentennial in big and for me is more than one party is to recover the values of our country, back to the roots, together with our grandparents and great grandparents for tell us how as living on September 18 when they were children, what they did, what they played ... It was also the time of Chilean typical activities such as preparing and then eating empanadas, playing traditional Chileans games like trompo, the gymkhanas, the emboque and many Chilean games that gradually have been lost in some families and have been replaced by baked or just for relaxing evenings on TV and see the militar parade and stuff.

That is why in the bicentennial year call on all people to celebrate all the September 18 like the September 18 of the bicentennial, and we can`t miss to take what we identified as the Chilean people, our roots and our way of being. Let us leave our homes, dance cueca, share with the elderly and thus further enrich our culture, while the technology to take them to display this wonderful culture to succeeding generations

The music that I like!

Hi everyone! How are you?
Today, again, I have to write about a free topic. So I’m going to write about the music I like to listen.
Actually I have no fixed style type of music I like, but overall I like listening to English songs, I like how the song sounds when I'm singing or listening.
The bands I like are Queen and The Beatles, but I like different songs from different bands and artists too, as the song "I don` t want to miss a thing" by Aerosmith, or "say a little pray for you" by Aretha Franklin.
But I also listen to music from Chilean artists such as Bunkers or Nicole but the Chilean group that I like are Los Tres, a group that became known nationally in the early 90's. This group has many familiar themes that are a must at family gatherings, meetings with friends or at parties.
One of my favorite songs of Los Tres is "violent love." This song is a bolero with certain shades of rock; this track is so popular nationwide that is considered a "romantic anthem”.
Well to finish what kind of music that I like to think it's because my dad listened to music and still listening ... the music of 80 '. I think it's the best music of all time, songs that speak of an era of change that is lived, not only in our country, if not worldwide.

Well, I think this is the kind of music that I like.

See you in class, bye

The Brain!

Hi everyone! How are you?
Today I will talk about a speech he came to do a physiology professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Chile, Dr. Pedro Maldonado, he told us about a very interesting topic about the myths and truths about the brain.
The first thing he discussed was: "The human brain is different from animals." This is a common phrase among all people, but in reality this is false is just a myth, because, first of all we humans are also animals, as well has the same structures in relation to animals, but has more rows.
Another myth that Dr. Maldonado is denied is "only use 10% of the capacity of the brain." This is false because we occupy all the capabilities of the brain because the brain is plastic, in other words, the human brain can change and adapt.
Dr. Maldonado also told us that the brain is compared with a computer; it is said by the storage capacity. But this is another myth, because the human brain is much more complicated, because the information is stored in different brain areas, as well as the brain integrates all the information, not separate them.

Another myth is the doctor said about the brain was differences between female and male brain. Both brains have the same capabilities, except that they are influenced by hormonal factors.

One of the last myths that the doctor was denied "the brain reproduces the world as it is, this is false because the brain constructs its own world. Is for this reason that we all have different point of views.
