Blogging experience

1. At the end of this experience, it will be the first time I have difficult to find the words to express how I feel or I want to say. Since I started to write every week, less those days we were on a strike, I have found a very interesting thing about myself: I like writing, I really enjoyed thinking in the way the words get out of my mind and fill a blank page.

Really I have fun, but it was difficult, writing wasn't a easy process, specially if I can't write in my native language. First, my text must be structured. It takes too much time thinking how I could say my ideas. Second, it was really hard to find the right words because could sound weird in english. Also I had to face the problem of the spelling. I know the words, but I wasn't sure about if would be its correct spelling. Definitely, the dictionary was my best friend in those moments.

2. However, it was very useful. I learn new words, and the same time, there were words just I knew it and I understand its meaning better. On the other hand, I had the opportunity to refresh my knowledge about english's grammar. Regarding grammar, I realized there a lot of things I can't remember. For example, I forgot the cases I can apply this complex form: infinitive verb + have + participle. When I came back home I will look for those old notes.

The point is I learn new things and I realized I don't know about other things too. In my opinion, in an educative process that is very positive.

3. For that reason I can't find some defect in the fact we have to make blogs. Even, I believe is better because in classes we didn't participate in the same way, so it's more equal writing words and very more useful in our future professional life.

The best in your area: Enrique Barros Bourie.

It's him, he is the master, Mr. Enrique Barros Bourie. In my opinion, he is the best jurist and lawyer of Chile. His reputation like attorney and arbitrator don't have a point of comparison.

He's the first partner of his own legal firm called "Barros Letelier & Company". In this studio, he knows lawsuits about contracts, business planning; antitrust, arbitration, civil litigation.

However, he's not only a successful lawyer, he has an outstanding career like judge. Four years ago, he was Deputy Justice of the Supreme Court and actually he's arbitrator of the Arbitration Center of Santiago’s Chamber of Commerce and ICSID. Two years ago he was the judge of the conflict between the companies of Transantiago, AFT and Sonda.

His successful career doesn't stop there, he is the President of the Chilean Bar Association and since 2007 he is Adviser to the Center of Public Studies (or CEP).

The best for me, he's professor of civilian law in my University and he wrote a masterpiece called "Compendium of the Tort Law". This work is one of the most important books of chilean law in the last time. Also he had written approximately 100 articles in private, commercial and constitutional law. The way he writes is very detailed and clever. I like very much to read him.

The most admirable thing of him, he is a very nice person. People that work with him said he's kind and "a good boss". Also, he inspires to his students, many of his pupils are professors too and have successful careers.

He is fond of art and speaks four languages: French, german, english and spanish).

It's clear the reason why I chose him because he's an eminence with a nice personality.

School kills creativity

In a conference in Monterrey, Sir Kevin Robinson gave a chat about a huge defect of the education: the absence of creativity.

He says something very interesting and certain, all countries prefer math over arts. If they teach arts, prioritizes drawing over dance. His point was education system develops intellectual habilities, but not motor skills.

He said that, since kindergarten, all educational public systems are "a entire process to the University's entrance". The idea seems to create professor’s university. However, that system doesn't work anymore. We didn't need so many illustrated minds. We need more creative people, just like artists.

He put a example, Gillian Lynne, who is the choreographer of "Cats". In school, she had bad grades and misconduct, so headmaster talked with her parents and ask to move another school because Gillian had "concentration problems". Worrying about her cognitive defects, they consulted with a doctor and he said simply "she is a ballerina" and he advised to enroll in a dance school. They followed the advice and actually she is multimillionaire.

Sometimes, a traditional career is not the only way to get money and to be successful, but our relatives say the opposite. I have a cousin with that problem, she wants to be a painter, but actually she is studying engineering. Her parents scared her telling she would be poor if she become a artist.

That is not my case, but I feel frustrated I didnt learn music well in the school. It's boring do not understand a piece of classic music. So, when I became mother my children will learn many interesting things like music, drawing, martial arts and sports.

It would be good if government realizes bodies and social skills are important in our education too, like Sir Kevin Robinson did it.
