Today's assigment is about blogs, yes, blogs..
I feel like the man who is having a dream, about his self having a dream, about his self having a dream.. You get it, right?
But well since this is the LAST session (yay!) I guess that I'll try to make a nice post.. Oh right? Let's go!
Since I had have blogs, since I was like twelve years old, this hasn't been what you may call "a new experience".. But anyway I have enjoyed it.. I mean, I always wanted to have a blog in english (in order to practice the lenguage, and get to now people from other places), but I never had a good excuse for it.. Of course I would have liked to write about free topics.. But well.. Nothing is perfect in life.. right?
But still I think that this is quite a good excercise to practice your writen english, 'cause it allows you to write in a less academic vocabulary..
Yeah, yeah.. I think that it has been quite amusing, after all.. And it help me to improve.. well... I don't know.. but surely it helped me to improve something.. I guess..
Well, I want to suggest some topics, that should be here, in my opnion of course... I think It would be nice that there were one assigment with a free topic.. I mean it would be great if we can write about whatever we wanted to, and since it would be about something interesting to us -well thinking that everything works as it should- maybe the people will work harder to make their point or subject clear..
I also want to suggest that the topic about "the best in your area" were removed 'cause it felt quite forced to write about it..
And well.. I guess that's all.. For ever..
So I won't see you.. At least 'till next term.. :)
Be good kids, bye!
As I've said in many occasions before in this blog -through the many assignments that we had have to do- I want to be a forensic anthropologist..
And as a forensic anthropologist you can work as an independent consulter or in a legal or police organism.. And I want to do the second thing.. I want to work at the medical-legal service of Chile , in order to identify rotten corpses and help to solve crimes.
But in order to get that job is not enough just to gradate from the university.. I have to do and phD, a master and get a bunch of degrees... Just to apply to job..It kinda sucks but that's the only way, and I guess that it's better, 'cause really need to know a lot of things to be able to do my work properly..
Luckily for me once I've finished my studies, get the job would be quite easy, 'cause there are not many forensic anthropologists so I wouldn't have too much competitors.. Which is really cool...
I guess that I would be a good forensic anthropologist mainly 'cause I really like the matter, I feel a real passion for it no the dead people, but the job it self), and for that reason I would all that it takes to get it.. And I'm also good at biology -laughs-..
And well.. That's all folks!
Sir Ken Robinson surely think they do.. And actually I agree..
As he so wisely said, the whole system is design on the basis of the productivity, so is our society.
But in the case of the society the thing go backwards: it doesn't matter if you're over productive as construction worker, no one cares about that, actually is what is expected and nothing more... But if you have a doctorate on semantics, even if you never publish a paper, people will respect you anyway, because normally people doesn't know what the hell is semantics about, so they just admire the ones that know it, even if it doesn't help the human kind in any possible way...
Sir Robinson calls our attention in one particular and really important subject: the role of education in the suppression of creativity, an god damn he's right.
I've actually seen it, in the school I saw how some of my most creative classmates were reproached, just because they didn't fit in the "normal" pattern.. And my school was pretty "open minded" about that.. Actually it was one of the school that actually pt attention to plastic and musical arts, and the drama class -even when it was and out schedule activity- was really serious and well done..
Actually what Sir Robinson says make sense to me.. I can't be in class without be drawing something, if I don't do it, i can't manage to concentrate and start to chatting to my classmates, distracting them.. I found out about this in school, and at the beginning it got me in many troubles.. But eventually teachers managed to understand it and I got the permission to draw in class, as long as my grades didn't down.. And they didn't..
I think that the world shoul listen to Sir robinson, because he certainly does an extremely lucid analysis about a situation that concern to everyone in this worl, and if we make changes on it, we will certainly make the world a best place in the future..
Also I have to say that he's quite a awesome speaker, very eloquent and fun to listen.. It's a great conference, and I strongly recommend yo listen it.To see the video go to : http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html
And I guess that's all..
See ya later..
