Interview ~

Sorry, I couldn't interview someone of the class, but it should work, I hope u.u

Last class, last post u.u

To start with, I would like to say that this term in language 4 (in this class only, not in the other monday/friday ¬¬!) has been quite fun! I've learnt a lot regarding idioms, expressions, and vocabulary. Also, I've learnt a bit of phonetics and british pronouncing. However, what I liked the most was the freedom of speech we had in our classes, blogs and emails. I think this is the kind of class (meaning planning, activities, approach, happiness, and ironic jokes) I would like to have forever. I really had a great time here, guys C: Hopefully we could meet and do something fun in a couple of weeks, in El Ermitaño ;D I'm really looking forward for that.

I think I'll be using this account for some projects on a magazine during summer, so if you want you could check it once in a while C:

See you guys around!

Love u all ~ <3

Jobs And Happiness...

It has been said that people are unhappy with their jobs due to many reasons. One of them is the hard work and the bad payment the job offers. Along with that, people have to coup with the unequals social and economic aspects of their day-to-day life. For instance, families who want to go on holiday and are not able to do it because they have to work in order to pay the bills (these are the workers whose contracts are constanly being renewed, having no benefits, or even worse, having no contract at all).

Nevertheless, and amazinly as it might sound, Chile is placed as one of the happiest country en Latin America after Peru. Why? Because people know how to take care of their own and they consider that spending time with family is more important than money itself. Also, the social life, the concerts, the movies, and all that, are usually named in the bills. Interesting, isn't it?

The Coolest Job Ever



If a could choose a job that would make me happy, it would be definitely Game Tester.
Game testers have to test video games in order to give their opinion regarding graphics, interaction, logic, and plot of the game. Thus, the programmers are able to fix whatever is wrong and release the video game with no further problem.

If I could get that job, I would be the happiest girl in the whole world! For instance, I have been waiting for Diablo III to be released two years ago, and Blizzard is not giving up yet. They want it to be huge, so they are playing (as usual) with the expectations of all video game geeks and it seems they are going to launch the video game in 2011. That means ANOTHER YEAR of patience waiting... However, the game plays are already upoaded for everyone to see how it works. Those game plays are made by the Game Testers! So they do not have to waint years to play a brandnew game, and they even get paid for playing it! Is not that the coolest thing ever? Nevertheless, I do not know anyone who works doing that. I had a friend once whose opinion was asked in forums, but nothing else.
