My favourite piece of technology

There are so many piece of technology that I can’t choose just one, so I think that all them can be summarize in the “electric energy”. Some times we forget that almost all technological elements need the electricity to work… I know that, because sometimes my family and I going to visit the country, and in some places there isn’t electrical energy… this is terrible… in the early days you can try to see it from the romantic o adventure side (to eat or made usual things), but at the end, the patience as gone and you need feel the sensation to press a button to read, wash tv, use the computer and even to see the way to bathroom in the darks nights... that’s why I love the electricity!! (ja, ja)

We use the electric energy all day, every time since we born, but we don’t really know how it came to us. Recently, for family things, I learned some things about, like the installation of a electric system in a place without it, is really expensive and difficult:
First, you need a measure of the distance between the last electric connection and your place, then whit this; you go to the electric company, there is when you realize that the cost is really high: their can charge you millions for it!!...In this point, if you don’t have enough money, you are destroyed, buying candles…
But you have one hope yet: the policies and programs from the government can help you!!... And then the bureaucracy will become your new problem …
My familiar experience takes one year, and it is not resolve yet… so the next time that you turn on the lights, thinks in all the process that it involves, and appreciates the importance of the electricity.

A public manager

I study public management and I choose it around five years ago. I always like the public service, because I think that there are many persons that need develop themselves but they cannot do it. Our country really need to that persons, but we live on an unequal educational and economic system: we can´t lose their talents and we need understand it and do something about

The public manager works in the government and public organizations. They made studies about the people needs and work to develop the social policies and the strategic plans. Their obligations are always respect the law and use with effectiveness and efficiency the public resources, besides, the promotion to the social welfare.

A good professional of this career needs get knowledge about the government functions, the law, managerial tools, and how formulate and value social programs; it is not the same that the private sector´s abilities, because we always need focus in the government and social goals.

My favorite subjects are the formulation and analysis of the effectiveness of the social´s programs, and the management of resources. Is here we really feel what the public value is.
Like you can see, I love what I´m doing, and really believe in it.

Pichilemu


Well this is where I spent my vacation: Pichilemu. I`m sorry because I can`t put a picture of me… but I dont like the pictures so I never take them. I spent two weeks there with my all my family and my boyfriend. Pichilemu is a great beach but the water is really cold so you can`t be much time swimming.

Pichilemu is also known as the city's world surfing because the waves are huge all year, so, while touring, you can see many Americans and Australians with their tables around. Also nights are fun, on holiday are many people walking through the parks and beach, and sometimes you can go to the musical shows on the beach or buy handicraft.


I love Pichilemu, it's fun, but also is very relaxing, it has many places to visit and learn about interesting things and of course, to dance and have a good time too.


This is a good place to have fun and relax in good company

Hello, well, here I am, writing without many things to say, but the work is the work, so:

My name is Tamara and I´m student of Public Management in the Universidad de Chile. This is my second year of English (I´m in third level with miss Jaramillo) and I hope get good marks this year.

I always like learn lenguages, specially english, but I need develope some special areas like speaking, because this is difficult for me: I always forget some important words or the tense of the sentences, but this is only because I am a bit absent-minded

Well thats all... I see you son.
