tumblr.

Hi, today I would like to tell you about my favorite web site “tumblr”. I’m not a big fan of internet, so I don’t know too many web sites to visit. Eventhought, about three months ago I discovered a web site that attracks my attention a lot. I don’t remeber exactly how I met it, but I think was because a friend sent me a photograph from there and I found the page quite interesting so a decided to made an account.

I visit “tumblr” when I’m bored or when I have some free time. I like this web site because anyone can upload a photo, taken by themselves or other person, and share it with  the poeple: friends or anyone who decides visit that page. Also, you can upload stories, gifs, quotes, links, dialogues, audio, video, slideshows... anything you want! And the best think is that “tumblr” doesn’t force you, I mean, you can upload anything, and there is no rules or censorship. Also you can keep things to yourself, that page give you the posibility to create private post or entire private blogs, to share with some people only, and you can invite many people to see your account. I like very much store photos and videos that likes me, because in that way I can see them only in one site.

So.. I invite you to visit my page http://quemandoelsol.tumblr.com/

The end

Camera.

Personally, I’m not a big fan of technology. In fact, I’m very clumsy about it; I always have difficulty with modern and sophisticated objects. Also, I prefer simple and tradicional thinks, like books and vinyls.

However, I love photography and I like to experience all types of things associate to photography, even moderns invents, such a filters and digitals cameras.

A few years ago, my mother gave me a digital camera. I remember that I was very happy and surprised. In that moment I thought “!This is the best present in a whole world!” From then on I started to take a photograph of anything that attracts my attention: animals, people, flowers, windows, doors, even the sky was very interesting to photograph, specially the clouds.

I always have the camera on me, especially when I visit new places. I like to take a photograph of the places that I like and particularly take a photograph of happy and funny moments. I enjoyed portray the moments that I felt happy, because in that way I keep them with me forever.

Unfortunately, my camera is very old, about 8 years, and has too much use. Apart from that, in the earthquake I left in on the table, and with the movement the camera came down to the floor. Because of that, one part is broken, but the camera still works.

So… If you want give me a present, you know what will make me happy.

Saló, Pier Paolo Pasilini.

Hello guys!

Today I’ll talk about cinema; I’ve always like watch movies alone or with my friends.  A few years ago I stared to be interested about French and Italian cinema, directors like Jean Luc Godard, François Truffaut, Eric Rohmer, Robert Bresson and Pier Paolo Passolini.

Pier Paolo Pasolini was born in Italy at 1922, he was a writer, poet and film director. He was communist and his movies always have that politic influence.

My favorite Pasolini’s movie is Saló, also called 120 days of Sodom, is based in the Marques of Sade’s novel, Marques of Sade wrote it in 1785 while he was in jail. The argument of his book is about four rich and psycho men who decide to live in a castle four 120 days with their victims and their accomplice. There are also 4 prostitutes who start to narrate sadistic stories that lived a few years ago, after that, the 4 men decide to make exactly the same to their victims. Pasolini’s screen version transforms this man in politics of Republic of Salò, the fascist state in the north of Italy after the defeat of Mussolini in Second war world.

I saw this film a few years ago, I don’t remember when, exactly. But I remember it because I like the way that Pasolini relate the film and especially the harshness of the pictures that made a big impression on me. Without that, I don't recognize any actor, they are unknown to me. After he made this movie, the government started pursuing him around Italy to kill him because the controversy that his movie caused.

Hi, my name is Pascale and i'm 20 years old. I'm in third grade of theory and art history at Universidad de Chile.

I like travel and meet diffent places. I like arts too, especially cinema and Godard's movies, photography and music, like classic rock and jazz..

That's all.
Take care!

Valparaiso.

 

Hi 
I love travelling, especially with my friends. And today I want to talk about Valparaíso, my favorite place in Chile. In summer of 2010 I was very excited about the visit of my best friend Paula, she's from Recife, at northeast of Brazil. I didn’t see her since 2007, so I was very happy when she arrives in Santiago.
In the early days we visited our favorites places in Santiago, but in a few days we’re very boring to seen always the same, so we decided to travel to everywhere. She wants to go to the north of Chile, but I didn’t want to think about how expensive there is. So, after much thought we decide to go to Valparaíso.  
We didn’t have a place to stay, but funnily my cousin called me one day before travel and said that she knows a guy how lives there in a big house and receive people there, even if he don’t meet them.
 So we decide to go to try one’s luck. When we arrive there we had to go up a lot of stairs, that was terrible but when we got there the scenery was amazing. That week we went to walk to the hills and meet a lot of beautiful places. In the house where we stayed we had made many friends, especially Diego who was very friendly with us since the day we got there.
The most amazing thing about Valparaiso is that never finish to know all the places, there are too many interesting places! I love that. I stay there for a month...

Pascale
