Post 5: A photograph and its story

In this photograph are my sister and our dog Isolda. I took it shortly after we moved into a new house, we had taken Isolda to the groomer that day. 

I think Isolda is very cute and cuddly, although we all think that about our pets 😂. But there is something special about her, when you arrive at the house she always welcomes you happily, in the mornings she goes to see us in our bedrooms and, although she is already old, she still has a young spirit. She has been with me most of my life and I would be very sad not to spend my days with her and her joy.

My sister is always there when you need her, she is very cheerful and funny, you will never get bored if you are with her because she always tells funny stories or jokes about anything.

That's why this photograph means a lot to me, because it was spontaneous and they are both very natural and happy.

Post 4: A meal or food I really like

A food that I like a lot is "porotos con mazamorra", this meal consists of beans and ground corn. To prepare it you have to cook the beans and pumpking in a pot with water, while that is cooking (about 40 minutes) grind the corn and add it to the beans and cook for a few more minutes (you can add the seasonings you prefer) and the dish is ready. This meal can be accompanied by a tomato salad or "ensalada a la chilena" witch consist of tomato with onion.

Besides that the fact that I love the taste, I like this food because it is a family dish, it reminds me of my grandmother and vacations (since it is eaten in summer).

This meal does not affect my heath in negative way, in fact quite the opposite because it is recommenden to eat legumes 2-3 times a week.

Post 3: My favourite piece of technology

My favorite piece of technology is my iPad, I've had it since this semestrer started and it has radically improved the way I study, I use it every day to take notes for classes, do homework, when I don't want to use the computer and even to watch series on Netflix or videos on Youtube. I like it because it is light and I can carry it easily, also because in a sense it helps enviroment since I don't use paper, I don't print and  don't use notebooks. My life wouldn't be bad without it but it would be harder for studies.

Personally I would recommend its use for educational and/or personal purposes, it is very useful. However, it cannot replace a computer 100% and if I had to choose between the computer and the iPad, it would definitely be the computer, since they are very similar in price.



Post 4: Time travel to the past or future

It's funny that this is the topic of this week's blog, I was recently asked this very question by my older brother. Honestly I would...
