Do Schools kill creativity?

Yes hehe... That is the first thing I say when I see that question.
I am talking about a video where Sir Ken Robinson tell us about a truth so commented by many of us, but never analized so well as he does.A way that keeps on attentive and so easy to convince
My admiration Sir Ken.
He says that the typical system education that we have has at the top the mathematics and laguages. And those are most important for the common of the people. We all so convinced that that the way it is, that we forgot many other important areas are arts such us music, painting.We confuse the humanist areas with the thinking. The truth is that we only receive what the ''older people'' teach us, that we don't do anything by ourself, we live in a world where everything has to be stablished, so we are not able to do something new...to be wrong.
I am gonna take a quote of him...It says more or less like this:If you are not prepared to be wrong, You'll never come with anything original.
So true!
Areas as the arts are so much important and do not to be taken are a downtime. It is the only one tool to create. We can take it and do more things than working in scientific areas, engineering and all of that, or maybe we can take it for that, we can take for anything! because arts open your mind and it does not have to be less important. Arts fix everything and move the world.



School kills creativity, ladies and gentlemen, but the old school and we have to create a new school, a school for the life, not for the work.

My Blogging Experience

I would say that at the end I enjoyed my English blogging experience.At the beggining I felt that was a little boring and was so much difficult before than now, to me.As we always worked in the Friday’s afternoons, I think that I was tired most all the time and knowing that we had to stay over here till six PM it was a little annoying but bit by bit it started to like to me and sometimes it was relaxing.In some subjects I enjoyed can expressing my feelings and it was a good chance to do it. But it was another where it was so difficult to me having to writing things that I didn’t matter. Maybe it was because I just wanted that the week ended soon.I can say that the blogging helped to me to think faster in English when I need. At the same time I am going thinking, I am going to writing in English and not in Spanish and that is the most important thing. Also it helped to practice the English, and although I did not learn to much new words, more than anything helped to me to make better my grammar and could solve some doubts.The blogging made that I could pass the barrier of the language.Despite all of that I think we could do things so much productive and actives and not to have to write once and other time because it made so repetitive and we did not go on.Some advantages could be that it was easy to us, because as we were tired, maybe we did not have the energy to do something to get involved more brain activity. Other advantage is the fact that we had the obligation to investigate more about our careers. As a conclusion I can say Blogging it was a great idea that with the pass of the time I learnt to value and it is sad that this is the last.

My Ideal job

My ideal job in an ideal very ideal world would be to be an actress or something like that.For that, you have to, obviously,to have the art skills, those I would like to have much more that I have now. I don’t think it is enough if you don’t born with that and work and work, because you need, more that the capability and talent, you need to have the feeling, the different thought, the emotion, and that is something you can not buy in the shop.Also you need the personality, because all that you do and say will be listened by the rest of the world and that is beautiful of this: communicatingI think I would be good in this job, because I have the personality, I learn quickly and I like to do different things and most of the time, I have no shame of making fools of myself. Despite of all that, I need more practice and honestly I don’t feel prepared to throw myself to act for the life, but we are talking about an ideal future. Aren’t we??I like this job because the freedom that it has, for me, that is so important, but the diffuculties would be being valued an artist, because you are not the only one, and you really need to excel and shine from the rest of the people and you have to know it’s not so good paid, at least you be a famous one.

My favourite subject

I am going to talk about my favorite subject what is anatomyIs one of the reasons, I think, of why many of us are studying a career like this.In my class the teachers are: Rodolfo Sanzana who is so kind and teaches slowly, so that way we can capture easier contents as complex as these.The second teacher is Elias Fernandez, for me he is the wisest and learned of the theme. He know each single part of the body, the bones and ligaments at the perfection, but his class are hard to get.The next one is Miguel Soto the funniest. I love him because he always comes out with something new and you really have the desire to listen him, although his way of teach is a little entangled .And the last one, but not the less important is Ximena Rojas, the master in nerves. Just like Soto, she is funny in a so natural way and she sures that we learn exactly what we need. I really love to be in her lessons, well she is special. I like anatomy, because the human body is beautiful and perfect and anatomy teachs you how exactly you can know it.This year I have learnt a lot of things, since the minimun face's bones, till the arms. I feel that everytime, it makes me easier to me, however also, that I will never know everything.

My Ideal future :O

When I saw the questions, a lot of things started to run through my head. I don’t know if I have to talk about my career one more time. There are some days where I see myself in the future doing this, physical therapy, like everybody else here, but there are days too, where I’m not sure about this, because during all my life I though in many kind of things, not too typical and by another hand I do like it.I see many people happy in this, I see a good future and I think it's a complete career, though I know that many of my classmates are not really so convinced and I think is pretty normal, but I don't want that all of we finish doing something we do not want at all.Ok, independent of this I would be studying for the next five years. But that's not all I want to do. I also want to travel a lot and for that I have to have a lot of money, so of course i'm going have to work, a little bit in my area, a little bit in a store and I think to sell some of my things.If I continue studying here, of course I am going to keep living here in Santiago, but in my ideal future I would love to live in every part of the world.For the next five years I hope to have advanced my career enough, traveled a lot, known many interesting people but always with the most important pillars of the life: Cience, sports, arts and love.

The best in my area

Although I don't know many physical therapists.
I think the best has to be a person who is able to reach so far and work in an important place and with the best people.
The best in Chile, for me is Dario Correa.
I knew about him, by my ex teacher who is doing with him a Master’s in the University Andres Bello in High Performance Sport.
He is a physical therapist of the Universidad de Chile and the head of the physical therapy service of the CAR (The most important sport high performance centre in my country) . Moreover he teaches in the Finis Terrae University.
I like him because he is doing what I want to do and that is why I admire him. I think you have to do a lot of things to have a responsibility as big as that and, as I have always wanted to know how they work, my ex teacher told me that he said we can go to the CAR anytime we want and see what and how they do it :D.
Maybe he is not the best in my whole area like medicine and all its aspects, but as I fix my mind in this subject for me. He deserves to be here.
