English IV

This semester my favourite subject is Editorial Design. In the subject we learn how to make one book from 0. We see how to collate the paper, make diagram of books, choose the good size of the leter and fonts, and how the market of books is. I think the market of book is bad in Chile because the library receive a lot of money and the writer and the editor receive less money for their work. In the subject we have a project that is to make a book. I worked with a girl that is a writer and i make the illustations of the poems for the book. It was the best project because is a lot of work but is beautiful to have the final book in my hands, made with love and time. This is why editorial design was my favorite subject, I like to make things with my hands and create something that meaningful. I don't have a picture of the book yet, because i not finished it . Hope it is  wonderful!

There are a lot of websites that can help me in my career but one of my favorites is pinterest. (Link to the website -> www.pinterest.com you can also download the app in your cellphone for a direct access). When you create an account in pinterest you will see many things, there are different themes that show you pictures related to the theme. You pick the ones that you like and the website show you pictures and suggestion related to your favorite pins. The website is very helpful because you can find a lot of references for ilustration or photoghaphy, color samples and options that help you develop ideas to illustrate. The bad thing about this website is that pinteres shows is the tendency of today and not what will it be like to learn how to use the tools it gives you to do or create something new and better. I know, probably my design teachers thinks "oh no, it's sooo basic" The site is a lot of fun but it's true is basic for inspiration and ideas, but i think t

This is my favorite picture. It is the sunrise afer the new year in Brazil. More specifically in Ipanema a beach of "Rio de Janeiro". I traveled to Brazil on december 20, 2017 with my friend Marcela. We visited many places and met a lot of people in our journey. I took with me $ 500,000 clp that were exchanged into real (or reais, in portugese). I worked so hard for this, while i was studying. Probably i missed all the partys in 2016 haha, but, in the end it was the most fantastic experience in my life. I visited different places in my stay, such as Sao Paulo, Buzios and Arraial do cabo. Brazilian culture is so different from chilean culture. People in the beach are easygoing and friendly, we love it. The weather is hot and humid even at night, we were sweating all the time, wearing flip flops and drinking water, juice, beer and drinks. My favorite place was Pontal do Atalaia because it was beautiful and mystic? I do not know, energy in this place is so different. I discovere

My passion in this life is draw and the music. I love draw since i was a little girl. I like to copy things that i see every day and mix colors to create a new thing. i've spent a lot of time learning about drawing, and today i spend most of my life doing this. but, the new passion that i met is the music. I discovered i love dancing to the rhythm of the music. I am part of a percussion group called batucada Sonido de Lucha, since 2016. In the batucada we play different kinds of drums. When I arrived at the group I learnt how to play the "repique". Then I changed my drum to a "tercera". The batucada is 6 years old now. We organized our first carnival last year in May. This year we had another carnival to celebrate our 6th aniversary. There were many batucadas and bands in the pasacalles, playing their music in front of the neightbours from Cerrillos. We worked together with the Junta vecinal Luchadores Silva Henriquez, a group of awesome women who wanted to do

My favourite gadget is my cellphone. I got it 3 months ago after my last phone was stolen. I use it everyday for everything. I text my friends and family and use the camera to take pictures of everything, I call my boyfriend and use the apps for social media. I like it because i can do things from my cellphone like ordering food or paying a bill or writing to someone who is far away from me. Life wouldn't be the same without it but it wouldn't be so bad, sometimes I get addicted to the phone and living without it would not bother me so much. I think people are so addicted to their phones that they miss what is happening in the real world, outside of social media, on the streets or in their houses, it's better to spend time with the loved ones than in front of a screen all de time, that is my opinion.
