My favourite festivity is the New Year. It is celebrated on January first and it corresponds to the first day of each year of Western culture. This calendar was established in the year 1582 by Pope Gregorio XIII, due to this it is named the Gregorian calendar and it corresponds to the calendar used in the most of the countries. I like this festivity because it is a day of party in all the country, everywhere. Many people go to parties and meet with their families and friends. On December 31, the last day of the year, I always eat a dinner with my family and when it's twelve o'clock at midnight and the New Year arrives, we go to see the fireworks of the "Estadio Nacional". After that I go to some party with my friends. I like the new year due to it is a day of celebration all day, all night. People is happy this day with their beloved and that makes me happy, too.

Like all posts that I have made, I don't have a favourite band or singer, also I hardly ever listen to music because I prefer the silence or the conversations when I'm with someone, but there is a band that like me since I was a children. That band is "Tiro de Gracia", I knew this band due to my eldest brother that listened to this kind of music. Tiro de Gracia is a chilean band, they started their musical career during the 90's, especifically in 1993. The members of the group at beginning was Juan Sativo and Lenwa Dura, but some years after of the creation of the group, Zaturno joined the band. The best and most known album is "Ser humano!!" and it is positioned like as one of the best album in the history of Chilean music along with artists like Violeta Parra, Victor Jara, Quilapayun, Los Prisioneros and Los Jaivas, this is very important considering that they play rap music and this type of music has never been so famous and recognized in our country.

When I read the post about a photograph, I didn't know what image I could choose. Then I surfed internet and I searched the best pictures in the world and I found it. This picture was taken by, Santi Palacios, a spanish photographer and journalist, the last year. I like it because the history behind it is really impressive. In the picture are two brothers, I don't know their names, but I know that they are from Nigeria and that they are eleven and ten years old, respectively. In that image they are in a boat in the middle of the Mediterranean sea due to they had to rush off from the Libyan conflict. In the image they are crying because their mother died in that country, Libya, and they are trying to call her. This photo represents the cruelty of the wars that make innocent people suffer and unjustly people who cause the wars don't lose anything.

Sincerely I'don't really like technology, as my English teacher, but if I had to write about one piece of technology, I'd choose the Play Station Four. The Play Station Four is a game console that you have to connect to TV if you want to play with it. It can be played alone or with your friends or with the person that you want. I bought it with my little brother the last year due to we wanted to enjoy together and with our friends in our house. If you want to play with it, you have to have a control, named "Dualshock 4", it has a lot of keys that have different functions. The play that I always play is "Fifa 17", it is about soccer and you can play with every soccer team around the world. I use this console every two days approximately and I like it due to I can play virtual soccer with my favourite team: "Universidad de Chile". My life without it would not be very different how it is now, it isn't a important thing in my life.

It's really difficult to me tell about one friend because there are many people that I love and everyone of them can be named as "best friend". So, in this post I'm going to talk about my best friends. They are seven boys of different ages and we are a very united group, named "The luxe". I met them in different dates, the first one that a I knew was mi cousin, named Diego, it was in the year 1999, when I was six months old. One year later, my little brother was born and then I met the second member of the group, his name is Matías. Many years after this event, when I grew up, specifically in 2012, I arrived to a new school, then I knew the rest of The luxe. At first I met Felipe and Lucas because they was my classmates since that I arrived to that school. Finally, one year after that, in 2013, I met Jairo, Tomi and Isma. I consider them my best friends because they have been with me when no one else has been there and I really love them, they are wonderful

I can't say if a subject is better than other, because I think that all things that you can study and learn are important and this last situation makes you a complete person that know and talk about  different things in different places, and the English is a good help to get this objective. But the thing that I can do is say that there are subjects that I like more than others, for example I like Epistemology of the Social Sciences and Sociology more than Statistics I because I’m better with words than numbers and the topics that we study with these two subjects are so interesting. I like the Epistemology of the Social Sciences contents because it is beautiful to realize that there are different positions about how the human have to know in the social sciences, and the teacher of this subject allows to every student say her or his opinion about the things that we talk and study. Regarding Sociology, I like this subject due to the thinkers that we have to read, wrote about deep thi
