Final blog.-

All people make use of reasoning, which makes them conscious of what they do. To be aware, people know what is good and what is wrong. Therefore, always it is makes necessary a self evaluation, because it will show me my weaknesses to help overcome and improve them. My essay is about a self evaluation of my academic year (2009). Therefore, I will talk about my second year in the psychology’s career, I will describe my academic performance, the relation with my classmates, the reason of my taste for studying psychology and the importance that the career has for me.

This year was my second year in the University. It was very special for me as last year. Nevertheless, in my first year of university, everything was new for me. On the other hand, this year knew to my classmates and the system of the University. This helped me to facilitate the obstacles that were arising in the University.

My self evaluation about my academic performance is good, because both 2008 and 2009 I got high marks. This allowed me to be exempted from all subjects. The high marks are due to the great effort I put into understanding and learning the subjects, because I am aware of how useful it will be for my future work.

About the relation with my classmates, I think that this is becoming more mature because, now, not all are friends of all as last year, where we all wanted to be liked. Instead, this year has strengthened ties with certain people, standing out as being true and sincere.

Now, it is necessary to speak of the importance I give to study psychology. I think that the essential for the future is the issue of a degree, because it implies an economic base that will be of great help for my independence and my family. For this reason, I make an effort to get high marks, because I want to be the best psychologist. All the above would be part of my strengths about my academic year. Nevertheless, my weakness in this academic year would be the inability to control my nervousness, which caused that I often fell stressed. Besides, I feel that I haven’t tolerance to failure, because I always want to be the best. This often disadvantaged me.

To conclude, I would consider my academic year in general: Indeed, we live good and bad times. For this reason, we must learn to harness not only the good periods, but also learn from the bad. Learning these will help us grow and become better people.

Finally, we see that it is always necessary a self evaluation, because it is the only way to learn about our strengths and weaknesses, and overcome them. This is necessary to avoid making the same mistakes forever.

In this way, I realize that I need much to learn about myself and the situations, in short, life in general.

My opinion about presidencial election.-

Presidential election approached and everything revolves around this. Really, I don’t like the politic, because this is boring.

I don’t like very much the candidates for president, because I would have liked to continue the mandate Michelle Bachellet . For my opinion, Michelle is the best presidente of all time. She has benefited women, especially to housewives of our country. I like her!.


My favorite candidate is Jorge Arrate, because he is a men with experience, he knows what he speaks, is known to have expertise in the topic. Therefore, Arrate could have a mandate without problems. Instead, I wouldn’t like to be president Sebastian Piñera, Eduardo Frei nor Marco Enríquez Ominami. I think that they are not prepared for this senior position.


I like the Arrate’s program, because he wants to fight against discrimination and democratize the power. This proposal is very interesting. Nevertheless I don’t remember the programs of the other candidates, but when one day I saw I didn’t like them.


Unfortunately I have to say that I managed to register to vote.


As I said, I don’t like the politic, therefore, I would’t like participate in politics in the future, because I am unable to take charge of the whole country, and I find that sometimes the politic is not transparent. But if I was forced, I'd take care of all discrimination, and I will make more benefits for women and for persons unemployed.


I hope that Jorge Arrate win elections, but I see it difficult.

Vampire stories are in vogue today. Movies, books, vampire series has caused a stir in people, because before these stories were rarely seen by his lack of credibility, however, has recently become to believe in these stories because they are made so deep and try to cover situations of daily life.

This new said that the TV series of vampires called “True Blood” is now enthralling British viewers. This is the reason that viewers have not stopped commenting on this series. This story is about a small town in southern America, where the vampires begin to live with regular humans. In this series there is a wide range of diverse characters. Not only this series is a vampire story, murder and bloodshed, but it mixes a high degree of sexual component.


As I said, this article mentions the degree of depth that has this series, like the film has caused uproar in the world, called Twilight. This degree of depth gives a high credibility to the stories of vampires, because the depth makes these series, movies and stories seem real. Not only the actual depth delivery credibility to the stories of vampires, also the mockery that is made to the situations of daily life makes these stories resembles the real.

The news said that this series is really brilliant, as it has caused a great success in the U.S., where it has won a Golden Globe and an Emmy. I chose this story because I was impressed by the uproar caused by vampires today and also because I love these stories of vampires. These stories are questioning aspects of life, as well as, return to childhood.
