English Languaje Challenges

Image
  About my experience learning English at university, I can say that it has been pleasant, although the pandemic situation has made learning difficult through interaction between classmates, I feel that we have been able to achieve joint development during virtual classes, and I have been able to establish dialogues with my students. peers making learning feel friendly and entertaining through the computer screen Personally, I have liked the use of blogs to learn to communicate with other people in a different language, I think that in addition to helping us learn how to express ourselves to tell a story, they have also served to reflect on things to which we are not used to and that are necessary to stop thinking about tests and exams. Regarding my handling of the English language, I have noticed that I lacked the ability to express myself, since I consider myself very capable of understanding when listening and reading, but I realized that speaking and making myself understoo...

Changes to my Study programme

Image
 The career I am studying, as I have already mentioned in my previous blogs, is social work and I am currently in my second year. When I started studying, I only had a superficial idea of ​​what the degree was about, however, these years have taught me that what I am studying is much more than I thought. It is a sadness that I have entered this career online mode, as I feel like I am losing a large part of it. For the same reason I cannot speak about the infrastructure or the use of technology beyond the computer in my room, as I have never set a foot on campus or the faculty. Personally, I consider that the curriculum of my career is quite complete, although I cannot imagine the amount of work that goes into creating a curriculum, I think that it is a great job that marks the lives of both the professionals who practice it, as well as the society that receives them. Creating careers in a way that meets the theoretical and practical bases to meet the needs of a society is a great...

What I would like to study after finishing my degree

Image
  As I mentioned in my previous blog, I am studying Social Work because I like to serve people, however, what I would like to study later has a more selfish purpose. At the end of my degree, I would like to study dressmaking, because the style of clothing that I like the most is from the 50s and it is difficult to find clothes that satisfy my expectations and fit my body. Since school I love to dress up, in every school activity in which I could dress up I took advantage of the opportunity to do it and I usually make my own costumes by hand, that is why I have been interested in making clothes, I have already dabbled in making dresses from molds and modifying dresses that I have bought to make them look like 50's style. Now I am in a transition between modern clothing and vintage clothing, there are days when it is difficult to put together a vintage outfit and I must give in to the weather and the rush and end up wearing my "normal" clothes. For the same reason I wou...

My Dream Job

Image
  My dream job is to put my own vintage-style tearoom Since I was little I like to play with cups of tea, I always offered to serve coffee to the clients in the hairdresser where my mother worked, I liked the cups so much that today I have five sets of cups for tea which I use in the tea parties I host to my friends and my church sisters, I have a tea collection in my house and I also like to make my own varieties. As I grew up in the public service environment, I really like serving people, I enjoy social interaction and I think that is why I am studying social work, what I liked the most about growing up in the world of beauty salons is have that ability to change the mood of customers through your work. In my tea shop I want to serve cakes made by me and I want to make the varieties of tea that I serve by dehydrating fruits and drying aromatic flowers. I also want to decorate the entire living room so that those who go to have tea or eat a cupcake feel like royalty when they e...

My Pandemic Experience

Image
  The negative is how far I have been from my family, more than a year without being able to meet, since our tradition is to meet every Sunday at my grandmother's house and talk, eat something delicious and play cards, I miss talking with my cousins and my aunts, my grandmother's food, the laughter at the table when we finished eating, anyway, we video calls from time to time to catch up. I believe that we could improve as a society in how we tend to take care of our health, since in my family experience, thanks to COVID precautions we have not gotten sick from other more common diseases such as a cold, we have realized the power of prevention I could say that I rediscovered the use of the computer, because I was never skilled with it, now with the online study I have improved in my writing and my desire to write has increased since it is easier to correct or restructure my notes. Personally, I like studying online but I miss the social part of studying, seeing my classmate...

A remarkable movie

Image
I really like the movies, before the pandemic I went once a month, the genre of series and movies that I like the most is princesses and romantic comedies, because they are light and fun, also like action and superhero movies, I think the only genres I didn't watch under any circumstances are thriller and horror. I’ve seen a lot of remarkable movies, but I think the last one that made an impact on me is “Soul” [spoiler alert!] because I love jazz music (and the poor kitten!!!) The story follows a middle school music teacher named Joe Gardner, who seeks to reunite his soul and his body after they are accidentally separated just before his big break as a jazz musician, but in the great before meets a soul named 22 who can't find the “spark” to go to earth and make a deal to help her to find her spark and exchange to him to return to earth and play at the gig that he wants. Joe returns to Earth but accidentally carries 22, resulting in the two souls respectively entering the bodi...
