HOBBIES!

Hello!! Today my blog will be about my hobbies, I have three:
First my favorite hobby is to sing karaoke, I started with it about four years ago, and this helped me a lot because now I have more personality than before, because I sing the karaoke song and sometimes I record it and then I share the video in Facebook or in YouTube so my friends can watch my videos and this not ashamed me. For sing karaoke I need a lot of concentration, I need to feel the music to know when I have to start singing and to know which rhythm and tone I have to use. This hobby is very funny because I have accounts in three Internet pages and there I can record the songs and make videos and then share them with the communities, so I am in contact with persons of other countries who like this hobby too.
Another hobby is to surf the Internet the most of my free time, although when I have to make investigations for my subjects I do it too, but is easily for me because I know the way I have to search for the information. I’ve made it since I have Internet in my house and I learned by myself, now I am surprised when someone does not know how to surf the Internet, I think to myself Oh my God, this is so easy! You must to be crazy. I do not exactly which skills I need to do this, but I think that maybe I need some patience; I need to identify what I need to know how and where to search for… I don’t know which more.
And the last hobby that now I done less frequently than before is to read. I do it since I know how to read, and I love it because helps me to develop my imagination, to improve my spelling and my vocabulary. For this I need concentration, comprehension and time (this is what I need now). I develop this hobby individually but it helps me to have another topics to talk with my friends that like to read too.
That’s all for today, bye.

Holiday destinations


Hello, today I will talk to you about the kind of places that I like to go in summer, for example if I could I would like to go to Iquique, because I think that in the north of the country the water on the beach must be tempered because now that I am bigger than before I do not like the cold water of the southern beach (when I was a child I used to go to Concepción, and there the water of the beach is very cold); also I would like to go to another country, like Brazil, specially to Rio de Janeiro, because it would be fun to share with people as happy as Brazilians, and obviously I would like to learn a little of them language and travel by plane (although I would die of scare).

This summer I went to Las Cruces (a beach in the central coast) with my family (my mother, my father and my brother) and then arrived my grandmother, my aunt Cecilia and my cousins Esteban And Cristian to pass some days with us. I had so much fun, because I rested a lot, although I helped my mother in some home works. I like to go there because is a very quiet beach, and special to share in family (this was the third time that we go there). I remember when arrived my cousins, my father made a barbecue with a lot of ribs (that is my favorite kind of barbecues) and then we went to a beach (I do not remember the name but it was near Las Cruces) and I stayed swimming and playing on the beach until seven p.m., after at night we used to stay playing cards, but I never won.

The next summer I planning to go to Chiloé with my father, my mother and my brother because my father wants us to travel to the south of the country, because we always go to the fifth region, and because is a place that I would like to know. There we can know about the popular mingas and eat some curanto, almost we would know about the legends of the area. I think that we would stay in some residential or I do not know because with my father I never know nothing.
Well I hope that this trip to Chiloé is as good as the previous one.

The beatnik turned natural birth expert


Hello, I read a new about a woman that asist natural births in the USA in a "farm" (as she call it) in where live a community of 300 people. This farm was found for a group of beatniks wich like to have a naturistic life, so Ina May became in a midwife that asist naturally the births of the women in the community, she attended a lot of births even of the Amish community, so she obtained so much experience as a midwife with hundreds of years working (she atended a loto f high risk births, breech births, twin births and even feet births). This helps her to write a book with all her knowledge about natural births (Spiritual Midwifery). That book made her known in all the world and now go to the farm women of other countries who wants that Ina assist their childbirth, once Demi Moore called she because she wanted to have a natural birth, but Ina did not know who was Demi, so she said that if some woman wants that she attend her childbirth, she must to travel to the farm.

Bonnie Reed (a woman that have two natural births) told to the reporter that she worked as a birthing advocate in New York helping women to have natural births because in some states of the USA this practice is ilegal. Ina hopes that Obama helps creating a health ministry for help with this problem.

A sporting life


Hello… well you can see that the name of this blog is about sport, but ironically I do not practice no sport, it is funny I know, but letting aside my sedentary life I think that the physical activity is very important in the life of people because it helps to maintain a good health and to prevent some diseases (that is the reason why I must to do physical activity for half an hour three days in the week, but I think that I will start with this the next Monday) but the problem is that the most of people have no time (or say they do not have) often not knowing the importance of this for them life . I imagine if all the people in a country playing some sport or do physical activity, the obesity rate would decrease a lot, also heart diseases and the quality of life of them would be better; also the physical activity helps to feel better with yourself and to be more happy.


I would encourage the people delivering information about the importance of the sport in them life depending the age of each person it will be different because in a children is easily to teach good habits for them health (in the school they have to do physical activity as a subject), in teenagers is a little difficult, because the most of them become in sedentary persons with the technology (the internet, television, play stations and other consoles) so I do not know, I am a teen and I like to dance sometimes watching videos on internet or I follow exercises videos (is funny) and there I am using the technology, so my idea is that this things includes activities for young people so them are interested and they would learn that physical activity is important. In adults is more difficult because they have works, so I think that in their jobs the boss would give them a little time to go to the gym.
Bye.
