Final Essay


This year is very important for my country, because is a. bicentennial year.
Chile is a beautiful and interesting country, the people is very friendly. The people change in the time, the Chilean people is very different than Chilean people in the past (for example), and now…Chile has a own culture.
This year (2010) was a special year, with more problems for the society. But the Chilean people is very strong and courageous. This is my topic, “Bicentennial’s anthology…Chile, big country”. February 27, was a terrible day for the chilean people. This day, an earthquake in Chile produce sadness in the chilean families.
More people died for the earthquake…was a terrible day for everyone.
After time, the terrible day was “superated” in Chile…and the World Cup helped.
Chile participated in this competition and the chilean people was very happy in this moment.
Marcelo Bielsa was a coutch in this moment, and he maked a good job with chilean football team.
But not only is good…other bad day for Chile; Agust 5 one mine (San Jose, Copiapo) was collapsed with 33 person.
The people was into the mine for 70 days.
Very countries helped to Chile, with technology, (for example machines) , and emotional support.
One day, the people into the mine wrote in a white pepper: “We (33 person) are ok into the mine” (the machine is down approximately 688 meters underground) was a message of hope for the families. Chilean people (and other people in the world) was cry for emotion and happiness.
In this moment, the government worked day and night for the people.
Today the 33 person are out of the mine (saved) with there families.

Finally, this year was very intense for Chile, but Chilean people are optimistic and courageous, however Chile should grow, because is a “more young country than France”. This was a “Bicentennial’s anthology…Chile, big country”.

Andy Warhol, my favorite artist!



Andrew Warhola, was born in 1928 in Pittsburg, Pensilvania EEUU. He studied comercial art in the beauty art school of Carniege, Pensilvania.
He is my favorite artist, because I love pop art (for the colors, forms and simplicity).
Andy Warhol was an plastic artist (like Yoko Ono) and filmmaker (Naranja Mecánica), very avant-garde for his age (moment).
Andy was a polemic person...other artists said that "Art Warhol" was a bad joke and stupid.
In 60s , Warhol began paint comercial products, for example; coca-cola, campell soup. This objets were "cultural icons for USA", like Marylin Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor, Warhol thought:

“What's great about this country is that America has started a tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest ...
Coca-Cola is a Coca-Cola, and not even any money in the world, can you find a better Coca-Cola than drinking the beggar on the corner. All Coca-Cola are the same and all queues are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows, the beggar knows, and you know it”

In 70s, Warhol had his own ideology when he said; "Make money is art, and the work is an art, and a good business is the best art"...this period was more relax than 60s.




"Dato Freack":
Warhol was designer of Sticky Fingers and Love you Live, CD of Rolling Stones.
Warhol was very fashionist, he said: I prefer buy a dress and hanging on the wall before putting a picture, do not you?

This is my topic, I hope will be of interest to you, Kisses!!!!

Stress and brain...


Hi hi hi hi… I'm stressed ... I know... My blog has its own life and opens when he wants, I think it is problem of my email, so I think that I'll change it. For this reason, this post will be a multipost.
Is very common to see people stressed today, society is demanding enough, work, school, children, marriage ... I think most things cause stress in people.
Fortunately, I have only the stress of college, and I try to diminish my stress with other activities, for example; I paint in oleo.
I think people do not know how to live ... the people don't know to organize the time... but in other countries, exist more time for the family and that reduces stress, also exist more support for government in other areas (Guillermo's activity for example, in France provided a nanny for the first mothers).
As individuals, we have much to grow and learn to control our emotions.
When said Dr. Maldonado, the brain is very complicated, and may alter the perception of reality...when the people are stressed, everything is more complicated, and is very dangerous because of extremely active of sympathetic nervous system, accelerates heart rate and breathing and if it continues for a long time can cause premature aging and depression problems.
The Dr. Maldonado 's disertation was very interesting and funny, in specially when I realized I didn't see the monkey!
Didn't have much knowledge about "the brain", but I think that with the "myths and truths" (people think that the more brain mass, increased intelligence)
I was able to clarify many about this topic.
Is important for my know about the brain and his development, because in a future, I will explain at the mother about the babys brain and and the importance of bonding. The baby is all set to receive information for storage, because the baby now is creating new neural connections...is a brain in development, and we can stimulated this brain for a good development.
The brain is very delicated, for this reason is necessary a good careful in this area (head).
Any damage in the brain, affect not only one funtion...it affects other funtion...for example, if i hit my head, i can be invalid and with language problems. The brain is a universe.
Honestly I liked the presentation by Dr. Maldonado, more than the others, for his material support (use picture and video, not only letters) and the way to explain, easier to understand.
This is my opinion about both topics.
See you!!
