Second Free Post


This time I'll talk about my favorite sport is football. The truth didn’t like it, but with the time and with more knowledge about the subject, my opinion changed, and now I love watching games and go to the stadium, especially if the team that I see is "University of Chile", the current champion of the Chilean football.

My family likes this team, especially me, my father and my brother, but he is more fanatical than us.  Since he was very young go to the stadium every time the “University of Chile” play in Santiago, and always (since he works and has more money), travel to other cities of Chile, such as Concepcion, El Salvador, Coquimbo, among others. He met many friends  in different areas of north and south of our country, and also in Santiago, and go with them to the different stadiums.

The truth is that for economic problems and other things, I see the games on TV. With my parents sometimes I buy food and drinks while we watching the games, and sometimes I go to the stadium. I really like it, because see matches at real time is more exciting, and also for the atmosphere that accurs at the stadium, such as songs of the crowd, people shouting, food vendors and accessories of the football team, among other things...is very fun to go, I  like so much!!

Tha bad thing is that I am a very bad player because I have played few times. I would like to improve, although very difficult to see it. I admire women who play soccer, because I have seen some very good! I think it’s very complicated, because there is a high risk of injuries or pain kicks.

Ok...that is all I have  to say...  see you in the University!

 

My Favorite Building

Hello classmates and teacher, today I will talk about my favorite building. Is difficult for me choose one, as in Chile and the world there are many buildings that I like and others I've only seen pictures.
One that caught my attention is the central post office building, which is located in front of "arm’s square", in the heart of the city of Santiago. Its construction began in 1982 and was declared a national monument in 1976. Has a neoclassical style with French influence.

I really like this building for its beautiful architecture, in addition to the cathedral and main square that are in the same place. In this building are offices to the public mailing chile. For many people the building is damaged and had to be restored and renewed, especially painting the facade and interior courtyards.
 I know this building many years ago, as I have always lived in the city of Santiago, and participated in some activities that have been made there, especially for important dates such as Christmas. I really  like so much the central post office building!!

Ok... that  is all I have to say... see you in the next class!!

Hello classmates and teacher, today I will talk about the city of “La Serena”. I chose this topic because I love this city, I always try to go on holiday or any time of year when there is a little more money and time, in fact I want to go, but I can’t because I have other important things to do in Santiago.

The city of “La Serena” is located in the fourth region of our country, near the city of "Coquimbo". I know this place many years ago, because my parents and family in general are of this zone. I like going there because many of my cousins still live there, and also because I have friends that I knew when I was a little girl. Besides ,I like to be in place for its beautiful landscapes, great beach for swimming, as is the "Herradura" in Coquimbo, and entertaining places to go out at night, as clubs and pubs at the center of La Serena.

This city has many tourist attractions, such as for example the churches, which are over 15, only in the historic center. The city's cathedral is the most famous and important. Another interesting place is "La Recova" which is one of the major craft markets in Chile. At this site you can found stone craft’s, books, musical instruments, in addition to typical food of the area, such as papaya and goat cheese. 
  
Ok, that is all I have to say, and you should visit “La Serena” if you still don’t know!
See you in the next class!
