Music and Art

Hi everyone!
Today I will talk about something that I really love, music and drawing. I will start with the art of drawing and painting. In my personal case, I enjoy drawing portraits, I give my best to do them with a lot of details and improve my drawings. I started drawing when I was 12, on vacation, I was so bored because I was so sick and the first thing I drew was a table, then I began to take confidence and draw people. I have never painted on canvas but I hope to do it one day.
And about music, I enjoy to listen indie music, or relaxed music and pop/pop alternative sometimes. Lately I’m obsessed with Bastille, an indie pop band of London. I knew them before,and the first song that I heard of them I think was “sleepsong” but lately I've listened to their music a lot and it's totally fantastic. Another type of music that I love is the music is one that includes piano in the melody, and when I first heard the music of Ludovico Einaudi was amazing. I discovered this pianist 3 years ago, because I was looking for piano music to study and concentrate haha. the first song I heard from him was “Primavera” and right now I’m keep listening his songs.

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.

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.

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 ...
