The end

             Since I left school, I forgot a little how to write correctly in English, y can hear a conversation and speak but writing is kind of a problem, I have to practice constantly but university takes my entire life jaja, so, at the end of this course, I can say that writing in the blog was a very good way to practice, I didn’t wrote all of the posts, but I will do it before the real end. I didn’t dislike something about this; the thing was that I couldn’t come to class every Thursday, which was the complication.

             The post that I enjoyed the most was the one of movies, because I don’t have the routine of watching them very often, so, reading recommendations of my classmates piqued my curiosity. The post that I didn’t like because it was a topic that I don’t feel very interested of, was the one of the website, I had to think more than usual to write something jajaja

             I enjoyed reading Francisca Cousiño’s blog, because she posted pictures with her comments and the way she wrote didn’t make you feel bored. But I also liked Daniela Moder’s blog and Angelica’s; actually, I think that Angelica has the most attractive blog, she wrote about things that were new for me, like the Korean bakery or tumblr, so it was a good input.

             I think that know how to write or speak English it’s a very important tool, in my case, a lot of important arquitecture books are in English, so, writing, reading and comment was a very good thing for me. Now, I hope you have success in the exams and have good vacations!

A website

I don’t visit a lot of websites, I just use the computer when I need something specific, for the university or I don’t know, to google something, but if I have a little of free time, I like to watch TV series or movies and in that kind of cases, I know that I can watch them at www.cuevana2.tv.

I don’t remember the first time I visited it, but when I discovered that I could watch things that I missed on TV, I used to saw them at www.peliculasid.com, but I never liked the quality of the website, it seemed that the movies where recorded on the cinema and you could hear people laughing or heads hahaha, anyway, one of my best friends told me that I could watch any movie or television series I want in cuevana and of course I followed her recommendation.

Before the police discovered the website provider, the original website was just cuevana, you could see the premieres or classic movies or child movies, anything you want, and every series I wanted to, it was just fantastic and you could see all chapters because the website had all the seasons of the series. Now, the website has another provider and it’s slower than before, but it works too.

The good thing about this is that everyone can visit it and you have movies or series for EVERYONE and if you don’t like to watch them in English, you can choose Spanish or subtitles, the bad thing is that you have to wait, sometimes a lot and sometimes just five minutes (or sometimes the movie is not available) but it’s free and you have a lot of possibilities.

Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain

There is one movie that i can watch over and over without feeling bored, and that movie is “Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain”.

I don’t remember the exact time I saw it, because I have seen it many times, but I know that I saw it when I was studying at school, I’ve always wanted to learn French, because I think it a very beautiful language, I think that’s the reason that I like it so much. Of course, the language is not the only thing I like, the places where the film was filmed are beautiful, the colors, and the music! A famous compositor did the music especially for this movie; his name is Yann Tiersen a French musician and compositor. He and the main actress of the movie, Audrey Tautou achieved global fame with the film.

The film is a romantic comedy that shows you the life of Amelie, a young waitress who decides to change her life the same day that Lady Di died. That day she also discovered a little box hidden in her bathroom, containing pictures and toys that a child hid forty years ago. She decided to seek this man and deliver the box. When she finally found him, she saw that the man was very moved, so she decided to dedicate her life to helping others with simple gestures. “Elle va changer ta vie”, she’s going to change her life. In the film we can see lot of different situations, there are two of them that i like a lot, Amelie have a neighbor, an old man that is a painter and he can’t have a normal life because his bones are very fragile, so she started to send him short clips of different things that were happening around the world, that’s her way to show him the world. The other situation that I like is about her father, he widowed when she was little and she always told him to travel with the retirement money. He never took the initiative, so one day, she took an elf of his garden and gave it to one friend of her that is stewardess, her friend took pictures of the elf around the world and then she sent the pictures to Amelie and then she sent those pictures to her father, to encourage him to travel.

Some people think that this movie is very cliché, but for me it’s one of the best movies because the story is very simple, but not light and the actors (combined with the music) transmit a lot of feeling, and reminds you that we can make people happy without big things. I definitely recommend you this movie, if you like romantic movies, of course, and if you don’t like romantic stuff I can tell you that this is not the typical one!
