About Transantiago

I think that it’s pretty much a good system, I mean, it has some flaws an all, but is not such a big deal; it actually works pretty well…
Anyway at the very beginning it wasn’t like that... There was a complete chaos on the streets specially when it came to the time to actually take the bus… No one knew where they had to catch the bus they needed or at what time it’ll pass… -Well no one ever knew that with old system either-… An also there were pretty few buses, so the time that people has to wait to catch a bus was way longer than usual; people even had to wake up an hour - or even more- earlier than usual; which was really bugging for most of the people, and made them complain a lot.. Also the medias were really happy to have something to create controversy and bother the government…
But now every thing is different, the system works better, the people is getting used to… The medias have stop bothering the government about it, and more buses have been add to many of the different routes, so now the buses pass more frequently, which makes thing more bearable.
If you ask for suggestions, I guess that you can always add more buses to make thing work better, but I think that the state should take full control over the public transport service, ‘cause that will do them able to do changes more fast and efficiently.
Well that’s all.. See ya later, alligator.

Sweet Ireland

I want to go to Ireland… I actually always have wanted to go there, for many reasons… At one side it has the most wonderful weather ever, all year rainy, foggy and cold…Just wonderful.
Other reason is the landscapes: the woods, the hills covered by grass and clovers… The rocky shore, the sea…. Well you get the picture.
By the other side it is a really touristic country… Full of beautiful thing to see when you are a visitor… The churches, the old buildings and castles, the historical places... I guess it should be awesome to live in such a wonderful country…
An if you add to all that the rich cultural tradition of Ireland: the music, the ancient language, the food, the myths, and all else.. I really would like to go there…
Since I was kid I have liked Ireland, It all started with some old fairy tales, and fantasy books... Then I started to listen to Celtic music, and I fell in love with it… After that I wanted to know everything about Ireland: It’s history, the legends and myths, the local manners, the original language –ancient Irish-, etc… And of course I read every book about it that fell in to hands...
I hope that one day I could finally go to Ireland... And it seems quite possible, since I want to go to study in England, so how the two countries are pretty close –geographically speaking- I guess that I’ll be able to go sightseeing to Ireland at the weekends… But well, It’s all just a dream…
And that’s all folks...
See you next week…

Last Semester

So here I am one half of year had passed already… And now I just have to wait until the class period finishes…

But right now I’ll do a review of the first term of this year, because it won’t hurt… I guess, and I also have to do it, because it’s today assignment for my English class…

Well in the first semester I have 7 different subjects… I kinda learnt a lot, but it also was full of useless classes, so sometimes it felt like I was wasting my time… Anyway, at least I have one wonderful class which also had an incredible teacher: Elements of physic anthropology… That was, without any chance of doubt, my favorite subject of the semester, especially because it was directly related to what I want to do in my future… Everything else didn’t matter really much, so I won’t waste speaking about it…

I’m not really a sports person... I don’t like doing exercise, I rather to stay in home and watch tv, or read a good book... So I actually, didn’t do anything that was not related to university... I didn’t have time to either anyways…

I won’t talk about my friends or my family, because I don’t feel like to… I rather keep that to myself… And about the challenges… I had enough just trying to pass all the subjects…

And well, I guess that’s all folk’s…

See ya!
