I love England

The country that I would like to visit is....ENGLAND!!
I love this country since I've started to read Harry Potter books and because my father traveled there when I was a child and always told me anecdotes that are funny.
I want to visit it because it is an interesting country, I know that it has the famous Madame Tussauds Museum (my father was there) with those famous people made of wax. Also, I want to get on the London Eye, the largest wheel in the whole world. Of course going to the Oxford Circus and taking fantastic pictures at night. And obviously, visiting the Buckingham Palace with its serious guards. And like a Potterhead, I must visit King's Cross Station and take a photo in plataform 9 3/4 crossing the wall (as Harry!!!) and the Harry Potter Park. 
And I would like to get on the train and travel across the country to know different places that I read about in other books.
I know that England has an Parliament Monarchy, the capital is London and the Queen is Elizabeth II. Also that is one of the important countries, economical and technologically talking. And I know places just for the books.
I would like to study in Oxford University (is a family dream), but my real dream is travel around the world so maybe I wouldn't live to much time there, just the time that I want.

Second Term 2013

A photograph that I like

This photo was taken by me one evening in the apartment that I'm living (I think was in May of this year).  
It was a beautiful sunset so I decided to take a photo to conserve the mix of colors that were in the sky.
I like this photo because it seems like a gift of the nature to us. If people realized of those little gift of life, maybe they should be happier.
I like taking photographies, actually is one of my favorite hobbies (the first is singing). I think is a way to conserve different moments of our or others life. 

I started to take photos since I was a child with an old Canon camera that belonged to my father, after a few years later, my father bought me a simple camera but I was very happy with it. Through the years my father bought a new camera for the family, but was usually used by me.

Now I'm raising money for bought a new camera because the other camera is old now and it is mostly used by my parents, and I need one just for me. 

My Tablet

My favourite piece of technology is...MY TABLET!!!
A tablet or tablet computer is one-piece mobile computer with a touchscreen. You don't need a keyboard is include, actually it's a virtual keyboard. Also, you don't need a mouse, you only need your fingers or a stylus.
I got it last year in Christmas, well was a Christmas present but my father gave me the tablet two weeks before Christmas Eve. You can use it for many things, you can read books, newspaper, works, also you can play different styles of games, surf in the internet, write, take pictures, etc. But I especially use it for read, but also for play Angry birds and other games.
When I was in summertime, I used to use my tablet everyday for read (I maybe spent all my time reading this summer) but when the classes started in the University I must use it only weekends or when I have time for a break.
I like my tablet because I can take to everyplace, it's very light and the battery go on for hours. My life without my tablet maybe could be boring, because I love reading and playing Angry birds. And also, I love taking pictures, especially to my nephew, who is photogenic.  

Anime

The Japanese animation well-known as "Anime" is cartoon that talk about the story of a young character. Almost talk about the relationship of the main character with his/her friends and love one. If an idyllic story that the most of the fans want to have.

When I was around 3 years old, my sister used to watch "Sailor Moon" and I loved this anime. This anime talked about Selene's life, she was a normal girl but one day she found a talking cat with a half moon in the front that told her that her mission is become a Sailor Senshi (warrior, protector). Since that day, she must protect the world of the Dark Kingdom, in that process she met other magical girls that helped her to keep the peace.

Other anime that I used to watch, is "Ranma 1/2", that anime was my favorite. That anime is really weird, it's about a guy that, I don't remember why, but change to a girl. In many countries was censured, but it's very fun and funny.

With my brother I saw anime too. I saw "Knights of the Zodiac", "Dragon Ball", "Dragon Ball Z" and others. I must recognize that are old animes. But when I was around 8 or 9 years old, I watched "Sakura Cardcaptor".
The anime influenced my life, was the first cartoons I have seen in my life and was very important in my childhood.
I know that Japanese modern culture is based in anime characters and should be interesting look the mixture of the old and new Japanese culture.
About the songs, my sister told me that I sang all the opening and closing songs. Here you have one is the closing of Dragon Ball Z. Enjoy it :)

Bruce Trigger

 If you like Archaeology, you should know about Bruce Trigger.

Bruce Graham Trigger was born in Preston, Ontario in June 18th of 1937. He was a Canadian archaeologist, anthropologist and ethnohistorian. He studied in Yale University. In 1964, he graduated as a Doctor. He made classes in Northwestern University in 1965 and then got in the Anthropology Deparment of McGill University of Montreal, where he past the rest of his life. He died of Cancer in December 1st of 2006.

He wrote a lot of books about his research work in ethnohistory, archaeology history and archaeology theories. One of  the books that I like is "A History of Archaeological Thought". 

In this book, he wrote about the progress of the archaeology during our history and the different methods than the archaeologist used to hold.

He was named an Officer of the National Order of Quebec and Officer of the Order of Canada. He was a Royal Society of Canada member, won their Innis-Gérin Medal and the Prix Léon-Gérin of Quebec's Government.

I like him because he did an important contribution to the archaeology and his books are very interesting. 

My Favorite Band

My favorite band is....BACKSTREET BOYS!!!!

Yes!! They are a five beautiful men! The first (at the left side of the picture) is Howie Dorough, but the fans call him Howie D and he is 39 years old. The 2nd is Kevin Richardson, he is the oldest of the band with 41 years old. The 3rd is Brian Littrell, he is the cousin of Kevin, in fact Kevin called Brian to join to the band and he is 38 years old. The 4th member is Alexander James McLean, best known as A.J McLean. He is 35 years old. And the last is Nicholas Carter but everybody call him Nick. He is the youngest member of the band, he is 33 years old. They started their musical career in 1995, but they were together since 1993. After ten years of success, they decided to try each one as soloists. But after a year they returned in 2004. In 2005, Kevin left the band. The others continued with the band. In 2012, Kevin announced that was returning to the band. This year, they are celebrating 20 years together and a new album coming soon.

They play pop, pop rock and R&B music. I like this band because I grew up with their music, my old sister listened when she was young and I was a baby girl. Both are big fans, we have gone to two of three concerts  they have done in Chile, one in 2009 and the other in 2011(the first time that they came I was three years old in 1997). And, because they make good music.

I don't have a favorite song, I love the most of their songs. But one of the most I hear is "The call", I like this song because talks about a wrong decision that mark your life, and that decision is repeated over and over again.
