why the Simpsons?

The Simpsons are a typical tv show to see on weekends for me, I watch the serie since when I was 10 years old and was the center of the laughts and topic of conversation with my classmates.

Sometimes  I ask to my self why the serie produces a great impact on people of many generations, for example in my father or my nephews, and the only answer that I have is the globalization, that afect the culture pop of many countries, between these Chile. I think how the chilean families are reflected in springfield characters? Because Chilean society increasingly has the same critics, characteristics or concerns that appear in the series. Apart of this, the tv channels have exploited the series so that most of us relate to characters like Lisa, Homer, Bart or Marge.

Putting all that aside, I like the serie and one of my favorite chapters is when Bart sell his soul, he said to his friend Milhouse that the soul is a lie, Milhouse reply “All religions have a soul, why would they lie?”, after that the scene changes with the priest counting money.

Today I tell to you one of my best experience in holidays, I hope you enjoy it.

This happened in 2016, when I was in my last year of college And for that reason I was also getting ready for PSU. Two months before that I received an invitation from my sister to go with her boyfriend an my nephew to Menoza, Argentina, in the first moment I didn´t want to go because I was focused in study, but I didn't resist and I went with a pair of books.

To go we crossed the mountain range of Los Andes and in 5 horas were there. In Argentina I ate many of delicious “asados” and I take a lot “mate”. We visited historic places of mendozas like the monument to San Martín, thermal baths of cacheuta, the aquarium with a turtle almost 90 years old.

But one of my best moments was visit the stadium “las Malvinas” to watch a game of Godoy Cruz, the local team, there I felt the passion for the soccer of the argentine fans. I hope go back again and visit other stadiums like the “bombonera”of Boca Jrs.

REFLECTION TIME - Studying in Santiago

Dear readers,

I want to tell you about my experience studyng in the capital of Chile, Santiago. First is necesary say I from Los Andes, a small town in the  north of Santiago, and this year I started living  with a friend in Santiago because I decided study in the University of Chile. My experience has been good but not easy, I have learned to be more independent and accountable. On the other side I met new friends and places very different than I was used to. The other topic is the transport, I dont like to use the subway in hour peak, that is the worst because too many people travel, I don't recommend it.
