Movies

This is my last blog and it can be about anything that I want so I am going to talk about movies.

I love all kind of movies bacause they make me create new worlds. I can`t tell you how many movies I have seen because there are too many!

What I like about movies is that they are the perfect excuse if you want to meet with your friends or if you want to invite someone on a date.
I think that the most complicated thing if you want to invite someone to the movietheater is to choose what kind of movie you want to see, because there exist there three kind of movie drama, comedy and terror.

It is difficult to decide what movie is my favorite because I enjoy all of them, but I can tell you that my favourite director is Tim Burton because his films are amazing. He is very creative and original.
His last creation was Alice in Wonderland, this is an old film that he change a little bit of it in order to be more representative to the world were living in.(186)

“Edward scissor hands” is other if his films, this story is wonderfull, it is about a man who has scissor instead of hands, this man was created by a scientist who died at the beggining of the film so Edward had to learn how to live in a normal world. This is one of the most popular film in the history.

So I invite you to see more films and to learn what they are tying to tell us, because every movie teach us different things.

My experience learning English at the Faculty

It is very important to know how to communicate with people in all the possible ways. For example you can use body expression, your eyes and your language and this is in every country in the world.
So if we want to know how the different cultures communicate we must know how to talk in Spanish very well and we have to learn different languages like English, because it is a universal language so it will be useful in every part of the world.

Last year our University decided to change the curriculum, and it included English as an obligatory subject so we are having this asignature. This is very positive for us because it is a new way to interact with people from other careers and with this we can learn how to work in team and how to respect one from another.
It has been very difficult this year because we don’t have a lot of free time so we can’t dedicate a lot of time to the thing that we want, or to practice more this new language that we are learning which is very important to our develop as a health workers.
So it is a great idea to have this subject but obviously there are a lot of thing that we can improve, for example, there are a lot of teachers that participate in the English program but, every one of them teaches in different ways. Maybe it would be better to use a common system so that the students will learn the same, considering that it the classroom every student have a different style of learning.
And the other important thing is that every teacher must teach English related medicine, because this is the most important part for us to learn.

The second semester has been very different because we have learned a lot of medicine terms in English. This is very necessary because nowadays all the information that we constantly need to complement our study is in English like articles, books and internet. So we have to keep learning and if you have the time and motivation youm may even learn 2 or 3 more languages.

Brain Myths!


On Thursday, novembre 4 an Amazing person came to see our class in order to talk about the brain. Pedro Maldonado is an excelente professor of the University and I have to say that I admired him very much because he is brilliant and he dedicated some of his time to give us a little talk about the brain that is a very interesting subject.

He said a lot of interesting things, he start telling us that there are a lot of myths about the brain and he help us to clear up a lot of them.
For example he told us that when we are doing something all our brain is working, some areas more than others because he never rest, and all of this areas are connected with each other.When we learn our brain changes, this is the reason why when we do something a lot of times we improved because our brain create new connections.

Human Brain is important because of his biology, it help us in our education and for our mental health, this is why some people believe that everything is in the brain like personality, things that we said, things that we need and diseases. So it is very important to continue investigating on it, because this could help us to discover more about a lot of diseases, helping us finding the reason why the human been have some wear actitud when he face up to different kind of problems.

I think that the brain represent all that we are, we should take care of it.
