the magic book

In school I read a lot of books, some of them not really fun or interesting. But of all them, there was one that I liked very much, after I read it became very famous and it was a best seller. It wasn´t really good, but for my age (in that time) and comparing with the other, this one was the best and made me love reading.

My spanish teacher gave me to read Harry Potter, she told us that we will love the book, and that for a little kids was a challenge. In the end she was right, and we all loved the book.

There is a little piece of the book:  
"Nearly ten years had passed since the Dursleys had woken up to find their nephew on the front step, but Privet Drive had hardly changed at all. The sun rose on the same tidy front gardens and lit up the brass number four on the Dursleys' front door; it crept into their living room, which was almost exactly the same as it had been on the night when Mr. Dursley had seen that fateful news report about the owls".

By "purelyjoy"

Format:Paperback

Harry Potter has lived a dismal life with his aunt and uncle, the Dursleys. Then on Harry's eleventh birthday, things change when a letter arrives, (by owl), inviting him to attend the Hogwarts School. Suddenly Harry finds himself among friends, learning about potion-making and magic-wand waving and broomstick riding. Hogwarts treats him well, and soon Harry finds himself in the middle of a mystery at Hogwarts, and together with his two new friends, embarks on adventures he never dreamed possible.The book is engaging with its imagery, humor, plot twists and real-life child problems. The book doesn't only appeal to children but adults as well. She's a master on fantasy. She really can, with no difficulty at all, think herself back to 11 years old. You will love the whimsical descriptions, humorous quotes and the fun characters.

I agree with this description of the book, and I also believe that the writer is a master on fantasy, and today also a millonaire!

stay for forever

I think that the photograph is a very special thing. It can make that a moment stay for forever, like a power, and every time that we see it, we come back to the moment and the place that it was taken.

I took this photo the last semester, it was for a university job, but I really love it. It shows a lot of people crossing the street, cars waiting for a green light, the buildings, the street, some trees and in the back a church.

It doesn´t have nothing really special, but I think that the lights, pleople, and even the cars (that in other time I hate) makes a great combination. It´s kind a perfect night, and a perfect place. The place is the center of Santiago, near to San Francisco´s church.

All the photos that I took after this didn´t like me so much, so I think that I lose the gift, but I keep trying.

 

Juan Gomez Millas

1.- Eat a lot on Friday's lunch. In Juan Gomez Millas you probably want to "carretear" and maybe you'll drink too much and get drunk if you didn't eat enough. We don't wanna you bring up in front of your friends.

2.-Read and study at philosophy's library. Make you sure that you study in a quiet place. Go there if you want silence to learn something or be alone to focus.

3.- Be friendly with people who work on campus. Security guards, gardeners, secretarys office, we  are all part of a community. if you need help they will be there for you. if you study at icei, please be careful with your relationship with Olguita...

the apathetic day!!

Today I feel like a little apathetic, and I don´t really like the topic of the activity, I would prefer to write about the things that I hate. But I like watch tv, in fact I spend a lot of time doing that. But I´m not a fan of any tv series. There is one that I watch very often and always it´s very fun, that is Friends.

It was created in 1994, a very long time ago, by  Marta Kauffman y David Crane. It´s about a group of five friends living in Manhattan and all the things that they lived there. I like it because is fun, it´s a little like real life and it´s every day in warner channel, like three time in the same day.

The serie has ten seasons, each one of  24 chapters, it was finish in 2004 and it was successful in very places. Even now, in 2012, this serie is watched for a lot of people.
