This semester I liked knowing the blogs in the English class, it is a very fun experience, because we tell different anecdotes or interesting things about one through a platform, where my classmates can read it and comment on what they think; besides the teacher also does interesting publications, where we learn more about him and his life. As for my writing skills, it has helped me a lot to develop it, since at the time of writing, I must look for connectors to understand what I want to explain, so I must make an effort to tell my story and be able to understand it. For the future I would like to read more publications from different people, from my colleagues and from different people from other countries, where they talk about their culture, their traditions, their day to day in places that are not known, it is interesting to learn new things through of other people's stories, and it would be great if people from other countries can read our stories and leave us their comm...

Normally I have millions of dreams, almost every night I dream different things, some very interesting and some terrifying, I have woken up very happy, but sometimes I have also woken up crying. Many times I have had the same dream, that I still do not understand why it is, I dream that I am tearing away from someone, that I run most of the dream, and when I wake up it is with a jump, once I remember that I was sleeping next to my cousin and I woke up and I scared her, I wonder what happened to me and I told her that I dreamed that a dog was chasing me and that I was scared and stumbled on a stone, but it is not always a dog that chases me, once I dreamed that It was a lady who wanted to attack me, and the most frightening moment was when a young man had a gun and I was watching and then I started running to escape, that time. I woke up too agitated, and of course, scared. I have never looked for what it means to dream about this, I always look for other meanings
The name of the branch that I like most of this semester is "Social History of Chile", since the classes are very dynamic and entertaining, since we are all interested in the subject, and also because the teacher explains the subject of A unique way, before I felt it was boring, I was only interested in knowing a certain part of the story, but this teacher makes you want to learn more about what happened in previous years.  The contents of this semester are from the history of Chile from the nineteenth century on, I like this topic, since it is quite interesting to understand everything that happened in those years, all the social movements that existed, to know the motive of the protests , where they asked for basic things and did not give them, it also gives them rage and impotence to know that there are injustices that remain to this day, and that people have fought all their lives to change them, to know the past of our country. It allows to understand all the ev...

Jane Addams was born in 1860 and died in 1935. She was a reformer, philosopher and American activist who created the first social housing in the United States, the Hull House. She studied at Rockford Female Seminaty in Illinois, made a trip to London, where she met the community center of Toynbee Hall, which encouraged her to do social work. It was for this motivation that created the social institution "Hull House" provided to immigrants, with child care and various educational programs. In addition to this success, in 1910 she was the first woman to hold the presidency of the National Conference on Social Assistance, and that is why I like Jane Addams a lot, because women are little recognized when referring to history in general. She showed many things, won prizes and always fought for equal rights between men and women, that's why I like her to be one of the pioneering women of social work, and I like her famous saying "Work in the social". He was not ...
