Chile 2010 = Shilian Güei

2010 has been an important year marked by numerous things:

The first one, the celebration of a fake bicentennial, because it’s not two hundred years of Independence it’s just a loyalty act to the King; an earthquake that erased all the good summer memories, a trip to southafrica that was not much tan a short trip and a disgrace that became a public media joke with the thirty three miners in the third region.

The celebration of the bicentennial year has been marked by huge celebrations that account for an attempt to make invisible latent conflicts in our society made by a mediatic instrument (in which all oficial media are part of) that tried to create an artifficial nacional feeling, necessarily joining groups that are constantly faced, as employers and employees, workers, peasants, young and old. especially people with opposing political tendencies.

For this they have transformed the meaning of every moment of this year:

The earthquake has been saw than an opportunity to grow, like a test that only grows with the feeling of sadness and a “teletón”. The trip to the football world cup it’s considered like the result of a genius whose work is closely consistent with the triumph. And in the case of the miners were celebrating the win of living and perseverance as a unique condition of Chileans.

However the way that the president termed the Chilean way (doing things right) is just hiding the dirt under the carpet. Actually the way they have treated these events shows a “Shilian Güei”

In the case of the earthquake there is an aberrant centrism of the power which means that the inequalities are reproduced between centers and peripheries, for example the more distant localities are suffering now the consequences of this catastrophe.

In football the constant work has been accompanied by large sums of money, which seem unattainable for most Chileans. Reproducing the myth of express overcoming, “from being a child in the suburbian to be a mogul with luxury cars”. The idea is that Chileans identify with this figure, believing that there are no radical differences between these social groups.

Finally the case of the miners has been disguised as a triumph for the nation and no differences have been considered of the scandalous labor legislation. Is more important to know details of the private lives of the miners that their working conditions. The goal is that any Chilean identify with them, feel sorry for them and therefore feel gratified by the action of government.

To conclude the Chilean Bicentennial in 2010 is a "Chile" that forgets, hides, exclude and decorates. It is an effective non-existent nation-building with deep fractures that remain. Nothing that a light show at the government house can not solve. Well, “The Shilian Güei”.

Hey Guys!

I think that i must have a sabbatical year, since the two and half years i have not stopped ever in my entire life, I get in to the college the next year when i finished the school, and that is why I should have a almost two sabbatical years. (xD)

If i had a sabbatical year I would work in non well remunerated job to have a Little monet for myself, and with that Money I would go to parties, buy something like clothes, movies or spend the money in theater plays.

Also I Would like to go to the beach every weekend and sleep till my eyes open and i would spend my time doing nothing. I will watch all the movies that i want, I would go to the cinema every day to view a new movie instead if they are good or not.

I would like to travel over the world and visit every famous museum or beautiful places around the world like the niagara falls or the pyramids in Egypt or even the Taj Majal in the India.

But by the time when i finish college i will not have a sabbatical year I will have to work, earn some money and the, finally, I could have my precious free time, so I only have to wait to finally do the thing that i would do in my free time, and ge tinto a bus and dissapear in a long travel

That’s all

Hello guys! Today I’m going to write about environmental friendly practices. Actually, I’m not too active in this issue: I don’t ride a bicycle but I prefer to take a bus to use the car (well I don’t have car, so I HAVE to take a bus XD), Indeed I really think that people should use the public transport instead of particular cars, the pollution will be reduce in almost a 70% if all the people use buses instead of cars.

Also I don’t separate the garbage in my house, but when I see specific trash cans I try to. Yes, I’m a little bit lazy with these topics. However, I think that this is an important problem, so I want to incorporate some enviroment friendly practices, such as using carefully the water and the electricity: it’s so easy and is a good way to help the planet.

Also, with some friends we are working with an eco-organisation MODEMA. This group works in Punta de Choros, and some time ago they won the conflict about the installation of a dam plant in this place. This could be really harmful not only to the penguins and all the marine animals that live there, but for the people who work in the sea, like fishers and man who work with their boats, too.

In these cases I think that we -as normal persons- can`t do much about it, I mean, yes, we can say “don`t throw it to the ground, throw it out!”, “use a cycle” or “turn off the electric equipments”, but are the major company the ones who destroy our environment by the garbage that they produce and throw to the soil, the only solution it’s creating an effective law that protects the environment and the people who uses those spaces.

Hi guys! Today I`m gonna talk about my last wild party: my birthdayOn August 21st I celebrated my birthday. There were a lot of people that I love: 15 or 20. It isn’t a crowd, but they are people too important for me. With my best friend Hugo, we went to “El Cielo” off license, there we bought a lot of drinks to have a really good time at night.Then, at 11 or 12 o’clock the party begins in my sister’s house. The music was loud, and there were a lot of laughs and we were shouting of joy: yes, alcohol was doing the job.It wasn’t later than 3 am, and all the people felt good. I can`t say all the things that we did, but I`m sure that it was like a wild party. Actually, I don’t remember too much about that night, only that it was very funny and tequila was a serial killer.The consequences of the party were awful: all the house was wet with alcohol, there was a smokescreen too, and all the people with an unforgettable headache. The day after the party was very hot, I hated it! I can`t believe how my friend walked with this sun.Fortunately, anyone had a camera. So there aren’t any photographs about that night. At the moment I thought: d’oh!... but now I think that is better, I didn’t wanna see it , especially my face. xDAt last, I recommended to you don’t use confetti: if you have parquet flooring it could be a nightmare, it’s too difficult to sweep it, especially when they are wet.

I love them in many ways, the first one is the lyrics that they wrote. the words are incredible and they had very underground subject like capitalism and wrong goverments all of them hide by a cool melody or sometimes by very sad music,

the second is the music in fact, they are very atmospherical in many song, in others they are very fast, with electronic beats mixed with cool britsh rock style.

They are from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, England.

The band consist in Thom Yorke (Vocals, Piano/Keyboard, Guitar), Johnny Greenwood (Guitar, Keyboards, Electronic Programation, Beats, Etc...), Collin Greenwood (Bass Guitar, Synthetizers), Ed O'brien (Guitar, Percussions, Backing Vocals) And Phill Selway (Drums, Percussions).

Two years ago I discovered a magical place. I traveled with my firends on february to Neltume, this is a lovely place to the east of panguipulli. Yes, isn’t easy to arrive there, but the landscape Is wonderful: much of the scenery is flat, but there are a big forest and a cold lake. The silence is amazing, so you can relax and have a good time after this long weekend that has a lot of food, drink and parties.
In Neltume you can’t do much things, for somepeople this could sound boring, but for me is great! Too much time to look the birds and swiming in the lake. I remember that I was there two weeks and I had fun all the time: with my friends we walked to the lake and we taked a sunbathe with a cold beer. At nights we usually gone to the forest and walk in the darkness, with a crate of wine.
Actually I had a really good time, so I recommend it to you… you can have relaxing days listening the silence and lookin an amazing landscape with wild hourses in the meadow and fishes in the river. The best thing is that you can have a rest of the last weekend celebrations, because I think that too much party and lots of food and drinks is tiring.
Finally, I recommmend you to go to “Tres B” camping, there is Hugo, he`s is so kind, and the place is good, beautifull and cheap, as his name says.

c-h-i chi!

Actually I’m not really nacionalist. Most of the celebrations doesn`t have many sense for me, I think that most of them are for cover important problems and pretend a wrong national union.
Even though, this holiday is a general celebration. Everywhere there are many parties, and all the people are happy, excited. Lots of food and alcohol liven them up… well, liven us up.
I`m not sure where I will celebrate this holiday. I thought to be with my nephew in Santiago (he’s from Punta Arenas) and go to the refreshment stands in the Ohhigins Park. But he had a problem with the tickets, so I’m still planning what I can do. Obviously I’m going to go out with my friends, but I’m not sure if we can go to another place than Santiago; we don’t have enough money, so I think that it can’t be possible, maybe.
My mother going to travel to Talca, probably. She wants to visit my grandma. So I’m going to stay alone and I can organize some kind of parties in my house. I think that it’s not necessary to spend a lot of money in this celebration. It better “do a cow” and collects ingredients for a delicious barbecue, or turnovers.
