Roller derby 


The truth is that I do not have a favorite sport other than dancing. However, I do not want to write about dances because I have mentioned it in several previous posts. 

So in this post I will write about the roller derby. 

Roller derby is a sport that takes place in traditional skates and on an oval track. Rollers compete with each other in order to accumulate as many points as possible as the scorer passes through the defensive players who are allowed to prevent and obstruct their passage through regulated physical contact.

Every player must be equipped with body protections such as wrist guards, elbow pads, knee pads, mouth guard and helmet.

This sport caught my attention when I saw it in a movie called “Roller girls”. This film is about a girl who is forced by her mother to participate in beauty contests, but during the movie she begins to discover that she has a great passion for roller derby.



I would like to play and practice this sport, but here in Chile there are very few groups that practice it. It's not a very well known sport.

Changes to my Study Programme

Imagen
Hi everyone! In this post I am going to talk about of the changes that I would like to make in my Study Programme. First of all, I would like my Study Programme to be more practical. It is very theoretical and sometimes the contents of the subjects are repeated.This theory I do not know if it really helps us when we work. There is who say that these theories are obsolete and I believe  them because they are teachers who works in the public service. Also, I would change the type of English that is taught because it does not  help us to read the text in English that they gives us in others subjects. With respect to faculty facilities I would like change the library.In the building we have a precarious and small library that also people do not respect.  There is a culture of speaking inside it and even talking on the phone! not respecting the ne who is studying.... Actually if i could change everything i Would. I would change many teachers who are really bad teachers so...

Opinion

What is your opinion about tatoos? I love tattoos. I have three: one of my mom and I giving us the hand, an arrow and a wolf of many colors. I think society should end the prejudices towards people who have tattoos.   The t attoos are often stories that mark us and that must be above all kinds of criticism. So if you want to make one, do it! What is your opinion about child labor? I think child labor is horrible!. however, you and I are cynical. Probably all the clothes you wear is made by children. The phone that you long for, the computer you use to work, the television on which you watch your favorite series!. Probably everything you have in your life is made by a child. What is your opinion about “barras bravas” (hooligans)? I hate them. I think they are the worst parasite that Chile has. There are many deaths at their hands and that is unjustifiable. I can not understand why the public of football is not like the audience of other sports like tennis or hock...

Hello everyone. In this post I will write you about my year 2018 . university this year has been very bad for me. I am not motivated to continue studying because I have lowered my grades considerably since this semester has been the one I studied the most. The teachers I did not like that I got because almost all of them are very selfish and not very empathetic. Although there are always some that are not like that. Although at university it hasn't been a good year, I must say that in relation to my family and my boyfriend has been very good. also in the field of personal fulfillment has been good. I have taken new challenges in my life such as: I recently started working for the first time. I am a cashier of the San Bernardo station of "Metrotren". also in my dance group for the first time I did a couple choreographies in which I danced with my boyfriend. in synthesis I learned that the marks and the university is not everything even though I feel tired ...
