An important test or exam


My case, the PSU.
Maybe is not a really important test, and certainly isn’t a good tool for a university selection method because it take aspect related to memorizing things and not to the real vocation of the people.
To contextualize, I do the test in two times, separated by one year (2008 and 2009). The first time that I do the test in the 2008… I got bad results (I want to study geography and my score was 20 points below the limit).
The first result was bad, because of my school… in my school the people are formed to be more human (I don’t know how to make a better example) and thinking people, in contra – part with many other schools that their form students to have a good result in the test; the pondered score of my generation was about 490 and 570 points.  
To the second opportunity I take classes on a pre – university institute and I prepared the test during the whole year on a really intensive course (maybe more intensive than the university, whit classes by Monday to Friday (at the 8:00am to 15:00pm) and with simulated test all the Saturdays. The result was satisfactory (56 points up to the limit) and in the 2010 I entered to study my actual career in the university.
I remember that thing because it was my more recently (really important) exam that I do, and because it represents a wall and an initial point of an important part of my life.

A special place to eat


Today I will write about a special place to eat. First of all, I want to say that I don’t know too many places to eat in my city because the food in my house are excellent (in so many cases are better than some restaurants).
The place is called Tip & Tap, and they have many locals here, in Santiago. I discovered it when a local opened near La Reina, in the actual Hoyts cinema. And for my surprise, the quality is the same in all locals (I corroborate it when I ate in other local in Santiago)
The thing that I like from there are the special dedication given to prepare and serve the food, also the food are excellent, and full personalized(for example: if you want the serve half cooked or with no tomato and in integral bread… you can ask it, and they give to you). Also, they have a mix of food types; not all some elaborated, but they have a great mix.
I visit that local when I go with my parents to the cinema in the mostly cases; the prices are ok, but it’s more a thing of costume than higher prices. I remember that sometimes we went there only to eat (without going to cinema after or before).
To end, I need to give a tip for eating places. I will give two:
The first it’s called “Kintaro” they serve Japanese food and are located near the “Bellas Artes” Sub – station. The quality in my opinion are best than the “Yoko”, but the prices are a little higher.
And the second place is called “Peyo” and is located in “Seminario” near “Grecia” avenue. It’s a typical Chilean food restaurant; really big and really cheap. Often are fully of people and the quality are excellent. That restaurant has other local, but that ere deficient in comparison whit the first.

A name would you like


If I need to choose a name of all the invented or not invented for me I will take “Gabriel”. I don’t clearly know why I really like that name… but I only like it.
I don’t make relations with the religions and these names… when a like a name I just encapsulate that.
So, tell me about a name that you would like, tell me why you like that, and how you liked that.
Leave me a comment in my blog and post on at least 2 classmates.

A Birthday


Hello, today I will talk about an important birthday that I remember.
I had born on the January 16th of the year 1990, at the mid-day of a summer day, here in Chile, here in Santiago. And i have three clear remembers… but I only explain one more deeply.
In chronologic order, the first was when I have six years old, and my parents invited my entire grade to my house to have a pool kid’s party. I was so happy that day, because in that day all the grade was my friend and my friends, will come the best friends.
The second experienced that I remember was on my eighteen birthday. I remember that I invited all my close friends, and a few friends of my friends… that was a big birth with some people that I didn’t see again since that day… but the remember comes to me because I don’t liked that birth really much, in comparison with my third case.
The third case was this year, when I turned the twenty two years old.
I invited only my close friends and two or three friend of my friends, it was in my house and I celebrated about 15 hours (like 6 pm to 9 am). The important think that I remember is that I enjoyed very much the company of some close friends, which not was a mega party, or a distorted party.
The most important thing that I have in that day was two… first: I saw a close friend that I didn’t see in three years (a friend of my pre – university) and in second part, I know my actually couple.
Especially that day I didn’t talk with her, in effect… I completely ignored her and she ignored me too. But in the future in a birth on a friend the things changed.

Free post, the Technology.



Today I will talk about the evolution of the technology on the last 50 years.
If we think about the technological pieces that we have in the present in our lives, they have to admit that these lives are extremely complex and rounded of technology.
The evolution of the technology was suffered an exponential improve during the last 50 years, especially in those 50 years.
 For example, in the 1950’ was created a lot of things that are used in the actuality by some people with absolute normality… things like the TV remote control or the microwave oven, the jet airlines and the radical fibers like the Kevlar or the Velcro.
In 1962 was created the LED technology, which is used in the coffee machines in that period to indicate when the beverage is finished. The inventor was Nick Holonyak, working as a consultant of General Electric.
In the same year was created the video games… that invention maybe was one of the most revolutionary invents that was made, and I can talk an entire post about it, but that is not the trending topic. For example, 43 years after of their invention the 89% of the kids in de USA plays any type of video game.
That evolution was directly related with the evolution of the gigantic computers, which evolved into the actual personal computer.
During the rest of the 60’s the technology evolved into the invention of the music synthesizer (and the music evolution that carries that), the smoke detector used in some public and private properties, and the computer mouse (the computer mouse are being probably used by you right now if you are reading this on a computer).

In the 70’ the theme was the portatile technology, with the invention of the cell phone and the Sony Walkman. The first cell phone was made by Motorola during the 1973, the inventor called to their competition using the phone.
The 80’s and the 90’ was a period of micro – technology and improvement of the whole tech with inventions like the Prozac, the MP3 player (evolution of Walkman) and one of the most important things: the world wide web, known as the “www” or the actual internet in some cases.



In the new century the technology made an unexpected improve to the nano technology, and the microprocessors. In the 2002 was created the IEEE 802.16. It consists in a wireless metropolitan area network, used in Paris, France.

I hope that I will see you dear blogheads during the next week.
