My future job

Hi riders!

Today I talking about my ideal job. My ideal job must be nice, I hope this near my house. I do not like having to go far from home.

I would like it to in the municipality, I have always wanted work there although I do not like the mayor. I want to work with ancient, boys and girls, teach them everything I was taught in the university.

My speciality in the university was textile, I would like teach embroidery and weave, maybe teach weave to crochet or weave in the loom. Is a project that I have pending because a friend invited me to participate in a similar project but at home is very similar to my idea of work in the municipality.

For the moment I only think about starting a new stage in education, maybe after I have a new plain about a ideal work but I would like that the boys and girls have fun with me in my classes with them.

I would like that the college is hippie Jajajaja! his teachings seem propers because the children learn others methods, for example: They have orchards, plant their own vegetables, make crafts with recycling and the child are more conscious about the environment.

I hope to be a good teacher in the future.

My artistic project

 

Hi again!

Today I am talking about my workshop project. My project in textile is about the familiar memory, I am using my grandmother's family album. 

It all started when my mother told me about the history of family, she told me that my last name was not correct!!! I was impressed when I knew but I needed know what was the real last name, that was Rodriguez. I investigated about my original family tree and I knew that I have more family and I don't meet nothing about them! 

I started gatherings photographs of distant aunts, I asked my mom if she knew them, sometimes I said yes other told me not... so I knew so many of my family are children of first cousins, I have a lot of cousins I do not know.
There my work begins, try to recognize themselves in unknown family through photographic images. The material used are piroxilina transfers and second-hand clothes, although this clothes is used to create a metaphor, which present an absent body, it is responsible for representing my family memory.

I hope you like my work.

Kinds regards,

My favourite food

                    

Dears readers,

Today I am going to talk about my favourite food. First I tell you that I love eat! The food is very delicious, always ask me for what the peoples eat so little.

well, my favourite food is Pizza and I like pizza that make my father (although I teach it recipe).

The dough must be fine and not bread dough because so you can feel all the flavours that you choose. The dough you can make with any flour but my favourite is wholemeal flour is more light and you make use hot water so that the dough is elastic for stretch after.

After I choose the ingredient (for him general are: Onion, sweet pepper, tomato, basil, cheese, tomato sauce, mushroom and corn, always like me more the vegetables), later put them together, put the dough and done!, carry to oven!. Ten minutes after this done.

The only variation in the recipe the my father is that use cool water and his dough is more soft that mine. 

Still I remember the best pizza that taste, was in La paz, Bolivia. was very economic and you are very full with one familiar pizza!!

We could do something when finish this semester!!! 

I hope you enjoy reading my favourite food <3

The concert was 8 year ago, was a sorprice of my father, he know when I would like, he gift me the ticket for the concert in my birthday, I turn 17 and I was happy for days!

Bjork live in Iceland, know that she has a house on an island of your country, this island is a gift from the president of Iceland, because she present her country with the world through her videos.

The Björk concert was in november, I dont know the date but this day arrived very fast, the concert was in Santiago and I hold that plan as arrive to place, because I live in La Florida. This place is San Carlos de Apoquindo in the commune Las condes, very far away the my house.

I was with my half-sister because we love it!, with her us get along very good, she was more age that me but was not many age.

The atmosphere during the concert was anxious, all the people wait for Björk, because she return to Chile after 10 years!, the people were crying and singing, I was very excited all the concert! (I also cry with my favorite song).

Bjork is best!!!! I love it!!

My experience

Hi riders,

Today is my last blog level 3 and will talk about my experience in writing a Blog.  It was very interesting to do this about things or themes of our interest.

My experience writing in my blog was very fun because I learned of places and I talked about my biography. My riders could learn about my life and my interests because I also wrote about my career and specially about my mention, in this case Textile.  I could also talk about my travels and the possible trips to do in the future with my friends.

All of this let me learn much more English. Since i entered the intensive English course I can understand more than before, perhaps not perfectly but much more. I learned more vocabulary and I hope to learn more in the next level.  

I would like to use in the next level other forms of communication, for example videos: make tutorials on ours techniques, maybe from the same workshops make a video showing the techniques. I would also like that the video talk about my real life: meet my friends or my family and give some funny panorama, invite people to a party or concert, etc.Tell our life in an interesting way.

Activity in class!

Hi riders:

I go to talk about the webquest that we made in the class. The activity it was about a groupal trip to London. We had to search places for visit and meet specific sites in the city. This places can be, for example: museums, London eye, Big Ben, etc. The activity is very fun. I can plan a dreamy trip but of lie LOL!

All the places that recommend us are very interesting; maybe more in the future. I will to meet those places and meet all England!

I recommend all the places that review in the internet, above all the museums because I love it!. I could be all day looking the painting, sculptures, etc. I would love meet the Támesis and eat in a restaurant near to this river.

My dream is traveling to Perú!

Hi again!

Today I talk about one place that I would like to meet in the future if I had the money, this would place is Machu Picchu!!!. My dream is traveling to Perú.

I like visit to Perú in the summer of 2016 (provided that I find work), to know everything about this country, the native’s cultures always I have been interesting, its landscapes, food (Say that is very delicious) and the people that I will know! For all these Perú is a country with lots  the places to visit.

I want climb Machu Picchu, walk 6 hours to reach the peak (Although I cannot respire very well!).  The height of the peak is 2.430 meters above sea, although I was more height in Potosi, Bolivia. I think that I will feel better in Perú. When I arrive the peak, I will look the ruins of their ancestors and cry of emotion for look this wonderful place!! And I create in my head beautiful memories that are not erased ever.

Maybe I remember the disc “heights of Machu Picchu” of Los jaivas!!!  I like this album!

Today, I'm talk about Ana Teresa Barboza, she was born in Perú at 1981, she’s 34 years old. She studied Paint at the university catholic of Perú and finished his study in 2004. Since then to done different things inside the arts.

Since time ago her changed discipline, after a short time start to add others element to complete her work, use yarn and she started to embroider. Since there never leaved embroider.

In her embroider, she show it landscape, animals, people; all this subjects she mixed with different techniques, some of them are draw, embroider and paint.  

I like it this artist, ‘cause we use the same technique added to our work, both become linked this technique to the feminine and to the intime. Embroider is close to me, the needle is a pencil that the create the work and the colors help to assemble the images. The materials that she use are cotton, like I she don´t use animal materials and that is very important for me, because I don’t use anything come from animals.

I hope u like it!

XOXO!

Love in Bolivia

Hi readers

I talk about my favourite photography. This photo was taken for my boyfriend, is a selfie Lol!

We were sitting outside the house of money Potosí, Bolivia.  We were waiting to enter to the museum; behind us is the door of the museum. In this place is known the Latin American history and the Spanish conquest. Spain takes the silver and returns to Europe with all the wealth.

My boyfriend and I, went to Bolivia to learn others realities and cultures, these peoples are very friendly, they never say offensive words although sometimes remember the sea theme, but not everybody.

This photo was taken in March 2015 on our vacation, we were in Bolivia for three weeks and we planned this trip for six months.

I love it this photography, I like the places, the people I met and  the person who took this photo is someone that I love, because it allowed me find pre-columbian textiles in our trip. I love him so much!

I hope you like my photography!!

Tapestry

                                           

Dears readers

Today I want to talk about “Tapestry”.  It does not know the exact date of the start of the tapestry but it is said to come the different countries for example, Egypt in 5000 BC, China in 2698 AC and in South America the date it doesn’t know.

This millenary technique exists since the human needs to cover. Since then natives people to use this technique not only for dress also to cover their homes.  The woman’s wove for their families and she teaches his daughter, she must help to weave all day, while his mother ends home works. The techniques are taught by the mother and are inherited by generations. 

In our country the inheritance come from the Mapuche tapestry.  This native people teach us their world view in his weaves, we can see it in blanket and in the same clothes.

In Chile we can find Pre-Columbian textiles in museums at the capital. I invited you to learn!!!
