My first day at university

Hi everyone! Today I will talk about my first day at unversity, last year, in the induction day.  
I still remember a lot of activities that I do these day, not perfectly, but if enough to narrate it. 
I remember that I was so nervous, anxious and excited in the induction day, and wake up so early in the morning didn't help so much for me. I was lost and when I entered at the faculty I saw all my first-year classmates sitting in front of the science kiosk with scared faces, funny and sad haha.
Before entering to the classroom, everyone talked to everyone, I guess trying to make friends and to reduce anxiety or something.
In the classroom, a lot of teachers make us a introduction about the career in general, told us about, the subjects, where we can go if we needed and stuff. After this, they asked us where we came from, why we want this career. 
This day I met and talked with a lot of people, I feel so comfortable in this place with all of them, my classmates were all very kind (and still are). Was a good experience and my nervousness was happening little by little.

Essay

¿Should students use their cell phones in the classroom?  In Chile, and in the world in general, students use their cell phones while they are in classes. This phenomenon can be caused by the increase of the use of social networks or the use of internet or other types of resources for academic purposes. In this essay, we will review the arguments sorrounding this issue, although this essay will argue why it is better not to use the cell phone in classes.  Use the cell phone in class has some advantages if the student occupies it responsibly. First, cell phone has many applications to help solve doubts about the class, if the student does not understand a point of the subject. Second, using phones today helps in the skills that a person should have in the current 21st century, for example, to work with technology in the future. Finally, the cell phone would help to takes notes in class more quickly, because in the classroom many teachers talk a lot, and students can no...

Graph

Today, in this blog, I will describe and analyze a graph that show us how much money (in US dollars /millions/) we spent on books in countries like Germany (green), France (blue), Italy (yellow) and Austria (black), in a period of 10 years, since 1995 to 2005. In this graph, we can see that in Germany, in 1995, the money that was spent there reached 80 million dollars, and between 1997 those numbers are increased slightly, so, in 2 years, since 1995 to 1999, those numbers are increased in 10 million dollars. After, since 1999 to 2003, there was a decrease slightly, to 80 million dollars, but since this year to 2005, the numbers went back to rise gradually, surpassing the 90 million dollars. In France, costs are around 55 million dollars in 1995, and to 1999 they rise slowly, until reach 60 million dollars. Later, the numbers go up a little in 2001 (70 million dollars) and increased very slowly till 2005. In Italy, the money that was spent in 1995 start with 50 million dollars, and incr...

Language

Pagel start by saying that language can implant ideas in your mind. He start with the story of Babel tower in Bible and says that this story is a warning about the power of language. He references this story because God felt that his power can finish with this tower that people want to make. For this reason, God destroyed the tower and scattered the people, bu giving them different languages, to ensure that the tower would never be rebuilt. I think that this opinion about the origin of language it's kind of religious, and maybe he need to investigate with other focus of attention, but it's a good analogy to start. To understand the evolution, he start to talking about chimpanzees. He says that chimpanzees can't imitate, they can't learn from others mistakes. From my point of view, this explains why chimpanzees have live in this way always, doing the same thing for years. In the other hand, he start to talk about Neanderthals. He says that we are not sure that they ...
