Memory

This photo was taken by Alvaro Hoppe, who is a photografer from the AFI (Independent asociation of photographers).  It shows a demonstration were a glass was broken with a rock or a bullet. You can see a police officer walking and people who looks afraid of what is happening. I'm not sure when this photo was taken, but i guees that was in the chilean dictatorship during the eighties. 






I like this photo because is a very interesting document of what the country lived in those years. I think is a very difficult angle to take. I find that is like an eye that broke a wall. When you broke the glass you can see the reality. This photografers are very important for me because with his work they build up the memory of Chile, but not the memory of the official books, this is the memory of the street, the memory of the common people.  

Some tips for your life as student

1.- Eat a lot on Friday's lunch. In Juan Gomez Millas you probably want to "carretear" and maybe you'll drink too much and get drunk if you didn't eat enough. We don't wanna you bring up in front of your friends.

2.-Read and study at philosophy's library. Make you sure that you study in a quiet place. Go there if you want silence to learn something or be alone to focus.

3.- Be friendly with people who work on campus. Security guards, gardeners, secretarys office, we  are all part of a community. if you need help they will be there for you. if you study at icei, please be careful with your relationship with Olguita.

There are many tv series now that you can see on internet, but today i want to show you my favorite.

Fringe is a Sci-fiction drama like The x-files, but better. The director is the acclaimed J. J Abrams, the same who wrote Lost and now Alcatraz. In fringe you can find pararlel universes, monsters, people who travel trough time, bad scientist, FBI and maybe all you can imagine. If you want to do nothing on a weekend i think see Fringe it's a very good option.
I follow Fringe since 2008 that was the year of his first season, and every day i have more and more questions about it.  

Now Fringe is at the end of his fourth season and nothing apearrs to be finished . The fifth season comes in september and will be the last so go on and get it.

Hi, my friends, i think one of the best ways to know a person is through the music. I have many favorites bands, but now i hear every day Cultura profética. They are a reggae-band from Puerto Rico. They mix this style with jazz, bossa nova, and even drum and bass. I like them because they offer something else than the other bands of reggae now, they are all great musicians. The lyrics of their songs didn't talk just about marihuana. They talk about the problem of their island, problems like to be an state of EEUU(they want their island free) and other common things like love but with very good rhyme. They have also political views against the goverment and how they treat the people there.They made a tribute to bob marley that i recommend for you. My favorite song is Soldado from their first disc Ideas nuevas ( New ideas).

I'm Gonzalo Espinoza,  i'm 21 years old,  i was born on the 11th juni 1990 in Viña del Mar each to the sea. But my fathers were in La Serena so i grew up there. I went to a very special school, Escuela de Música Jorge Peña Hen, there i learned how to play euphonium and i felt in love with the music.Actually i study journalism in Santiago at the Universidad de Chile in the ICEI's little school. 

My inmediatte family is made up of my mother María Luz, my 2 brothers, Pablo and Nicolas, but i have also 2  half  brother and sister, Gabriel and Emily, they live in USA with my father Pablo. 

I like very much the music, i love to play the guitar and sing with my friends or alone. The most part of the day i'm not at home, i like to be in the city making something or talking with somebody.

The last thing about me that i want to say is that Santiago is too loud.
