Some reflections

Hi everyone! Today is the last blog and I’m going to talk about the things that this year is bringing for me. Really up to now, my life hasn’t been much different to the past time. In the summer, I travel with my mother and sister. My family and I always go on vacation but this year was the first time that we went alone and it was different but enjoy. I say that we would travel more and I hope that it passes!   In my studies I’m in my fifth semester of university, although I have a few subjects because I failed one these. However, this mistake has caused that I can do others things. Before, I think that failed a subject was terrible but some time it result be better (it’s a personal opinion, obviously.). I don’t want to tell about others thing that I have happened; I prefer to keep it for me. But, I can tell about one thing that I’m going to do. In a near future I’m going to travel out of Chile and I hope to result very well (I’m not going to say the why and where ha-ha...

My favorite plant

Today, I’m going to talk about my favorite plant. I believe that all of us, Forestry’s student, think that we must have a favorite plant but I haven’t think about it. I love too much the plants and I don’t choose one as my favorite. This occasion, I choose Luma apiculata , commonly known as ArrayĆ”n.   Luma apiculata belongs to the Mytaceae family, of the Angiosperm group. It is a native species of Chile which it has a wide distribution throughout country we can find it among IV – XI region, in hydrophilic forest, on the shore of lakes and water courses. This plant is very common, it is easy recognition as Quillay and Peumo and it don’t result be very attractive for much people, but It is attractive for me. I like its white flowers with large stamens (that this is characteristics of the family). It has an orange trunk and it usually doesn’t be straight totally.   This species has a particular aroma; in fact we can recognize it for this characteristic. So... that’s it...

A subject you enjoyed studying this semester

Hi everyone!  Today I must talk about a subject that I enjoy studying this semester. Truly, I don´t enjoy to study some subject this semester because I have a few subject and not ones I like it enough. So, in my third semester (Now, I’m in fifth semester) my subjects were more specifics and hard, but I like the contents so much. My favorite subjects of that semester probably was "Structure and Functioning of Ecosystems" because in this one I learned about ecology, basically the relation of the organisms with the environment, also can be between organisms.  Study this subject was enjoyed, because I understood and connected all the ecological processes within an ecosystem. Know this is very important due to that we analyze different ecosystem during the career and subsequent to it.  We went to field, specifically to Cerro Poqui, there measure different variables for to analyze ecosystem; for example measure biomass, radiation, vegetation, etc.  Other su...

Hi, everyone! Today I'm going to talk about the movies and other things related to it. I’m not movie lover but I like watch movies. Even, I prefer staying in the house or going to cinema than going to party. The most of the weekends, I watch Netflix with my sister, friends or alone. I love Netflix. The problem is that there I enjoy more watching series than watching movies. I’m very terrible to choose films :(. Often, I’m going to cinema. The last time that I went, I watched “Avengers: Infinity war”. It bad that the cinema is very expensive.                                                                         ...

Hi, everyone! Today I'm going to write about my favorite place in the world. Literally I have a favorite place in the world because it depend much of the situation and my mood. Depend if I meet my friends or my family, if I’m with energy or depressed. When I’m depressed I like be alone… maybe in my room or in an outdoors listening music or reading. When I’m with energy I prefer be in any place where I can make things that like, for example riding in bicycle, walking, taking photos, observe plants, etc. I know a few places. I love the south of Chile but I’ve not had the opportunity of know whole it. If I had to choose a favorite place in the world I choose the forest in Chile. If I had to choose a favorite place that I’ve gone be “Parque nacional Radal, siete tazas”. I would not choose it only for its landscapes, but for the good time I had over there. I hope know many place in a very near future to I have a favorite place in the world. So... that it. What about...
