The cellphone!

The cellphone is a phone, but personal and customise. Whit the cellphone I can call, take a photograph, record, send and receive messages.

My cellphone is a present of my mother; she gave the cellphone to me when I was 17 years old for my confirmation.

The cellphone is very easy to use, because all the cellphones are organized in the same way, one place where the messages are, another where the camera is, another where the games are, etc.

I always use the cellphone, to wake up, to send message, to take photos, etc. I can’t live without my cellphone jajaja.

I like the cellphone because it has my memories and many important things inside. Also I like the cellphone because it is useful and practical.

My life is easier with the cellphone because I use the cellphone in emergency instance and to daily life for example: when I call a friend, when to the police call for an accident, etc.

My cellphone is old, but equal I like because is a memory of my mother and always I will have.

Well, the cellphone (for me) is the best piece of technology that has been created.

See you class ;)

The minga!!

The “minga” is one social celebretion, where the people of the town have to go to the help a one family that want change of place, but keeping the house.

The first the house is move for sea with the boat, and the second, when the house has come to earth, the house is pulled by bulls until you reach the place of installation.

There is no specific day for the Minga, only happens when one family want and when the people help.

For the community should be very important and rewarding, because they continue with the tradition of town, specifically in the Chiloe island, birthplace of this practice. With this practice is achieved by creating and maintaining a true community, because the people able to share experiences and build relationships.

I like the minga, because they have one mision and all the people work to achieve them, they work to created one community and this relationship have continue in the time.

But, I have not participated in this tradition, because I've never been in the island of Chiloe. I would like to go Chiloe, because I think that south people is more friendly and more open to sharing.

The teacher Gabriel Salazar

Gabriel Salazar was my teacher of “Historia de Chile” in the second semester the last year. He is teacher of History, he studied philosophy and sociology. Salazar is a man who belonged to the MIR in his youth, since 1970- 1973. But in 1973, with the “coup military” and the dictatorship, he was detained and tortured at Villa Grimaldi, in 1976 he went into exile in UK where he studied a Ph.D in “Economic and Social History” in the University of Hull.

Salazar, along with other historians, is the founder of "Social History." This collects stories of the “Bajo pueblo”, of the vanquished and not the victors.

The teacher Gabriel, in 2006, won “Premio Nacional de Historia de Chile”, he has written many publications, between books and articles.

Why I like him? Because the teacher open my mind about another kind of the History, with the that I can work with the children in my future job, although difficult to oppose the official curriculum.

See you class
