Walking a life

The journalism is a complex profession, but I think that this is good because it makes the career has different areas and that the journalist can choose what they want to do. Inside this types, there is one in which I’m interest: the literary journalism. Since I have memory I love to read. In my room I have a library with poems, sciences fiction novels, mystery and stories of all kind. However, when I started to study journalism I stop reading those books because I didn’t have much free time - I still don’t -. Then I realize that I want to combine my love for literature and the journalism career, so the literary journalism is an excellent alternative for my future and my profession. The literary journalism is a different way of communicating the reality that includes a few tools of the narrative writing as the description, the rhythms and a structure that try to do more attractive the story, because in this type of journalism it is believed that it matters how the story is told....

For a few months my family and I saved money for a travel together. My twin brother and I worked and we finally got the money we needed. It was the best trip of my life. We went in february 2016 but the coastal air is still in my nose. The view of the beach La Herradura in Coquimbo is amazing, the sea has no waves and the sand is more thin. For eight days with my mom, my two brothers and my dog stayed in a little house, to five minutes of the beach. A little restaurant by the coast is part of one of my favorite memory. One night, we walked to see the ocean. Then we ate and drank with a softy light in the beautiful tables the restaurant had. Another moment that marked our trip was when we went to Elqui Valley. The sky and the air of that place is so pure that is impressive. We went to Vicuña, the town of Gabriela Mistral, and we knew the museum in her honor. In that place a bought a book with all her poems.   This is my more emotional and favorite trip because being wit...

When I started to study journalism, I didn’t expected anything, I didn’t dream with the power of this job like others of my partners. I was insecure, even a little disappointed. Maybe of the type of journalist that is more common to see on the television and heard on the radio, professionals who have lied, manipulated and  ignored the reality. In my first semester I read a book that help me to understand a few things. I love to read all kind of books since I have conscience to do it. I think that passing a page gives the satisfaction that you know something you didn’t know before. I’m losing the point. So, in that semester I had to read a lot. In the ethics course (which was far of being my favorite one) I read “Sostiene Pereira”. This is a story of a journalist that decide to ignore the dictadura that his country, Portugal, lives. The man thought that is possible to live without a political participation in this job and he do nothing to report the situation. He changed his m...

The experience of having a blog was a little strange for me, I never had one because I always feel that what I think about some situations it is personal and I was not sure of publish this thoughts in a public web site, because I prefer to talk in person with the other people and I feel some much better sharing this way what I think. In this curse, the blogs were a good toil to develop our abilities and helps us to structure our writing in an order. express us in a web site teach us to resume ours ideas and communicate those in a more clear way. I also think that all this blogs were a way of knowing my partners for middle of their publications, their experience and their opinions. I think that writing a blog in a web site contributed to make of the curse a group.    If I have to resume my experience in this blog, I would say that, although I did not feel very comfortable in this activity, it is an interesting way of learn english, it is an innovation and that always he...

I have very things that annoy me, the disrespect between the people and the indifference to the situations important of the present. But, of all that, I feel really outraged when I realize that the country in which I live gives television spaces to public figures that used them to discriminate other persons. The confrontation between the conductor of the program, “El interruptor”, José Miguel Villouta and the “Pastor Soto” is and example of that. I think that people like this “Pastor” have public spaces is dangerous for the construction of a more respectful nation. What makes the situation worse, for me, is that his ideas also represents to a presidential candidate, José Antonio Kast. It may seem like a isolated case but it is really an example of the violence that some people have to live every day for their sexual orientation, only for who they are. I would like to live in an inclusive country that values people, because all that matters is that they are people with feeling...

While I am ending the semester, I think in how it was, how I feel with my teachers and my courses, and in that thoughts I discovered what subject was my favorite: Critical Theory. Critical Theory was my prefer because it was where I learned most and about different themes, so this made it more interest for me. The course was about a tendency that was developed by different authors in the past century and that studied the possible ways of analyzing society.   Also, the teacher of this subject was great, he knows a lot and explains the contents in a deep and cool way. His experience, his books recommendations and his methodology benefited the course in an incredible form. The reflexions about the society, the economic model and the communications theories are an area that I am interest in developed in the future, so this course was a based for that project. For this course and the last semesters, like Functionalism and Subject and communication, I realized that I like t...
