A sport I do to keep fit

A sport I do to keep fit is Football and all of its ramifications, especially Futsal. That one is the most that I like.

I practice football since I have memory, but I think that I started when I was seven years old. Since then, I have not left it away and I have practiced it once a week at least. 

When I started playing, I used to practice it every day at break school and at home (I didn't like TV too much so I used to play a lot at home) then my parents thought that sign me up on a female football academy would be a good idea so I could learn more, and it was! I grew a lot on that academy it was a good experience, it was one of the first woman schools of football, so I was privileged.

By that time, I used to like the Universidad de Chile team so when I discovered that they had a woman school of football I wanted to enter with all my soul. So I did, it was nearer to my house than the other school so for my parents it was all right. I was there for two years. After that, when I turned eleven, I started to play for the school team. It was a good time, we trained twice a week and we had matches at the weekend or Fridays. The team was great! We loved each other a lot. In addition, the coach was great! We won many championships; we even traveled to Brazil to dispute a cup so it was such a trip. 

Well after finishing school, I started to train on another academy of football that my school coach created. There were all the girls that had finished school and wanted to keep training. We trained once a year and used to play on weekends. I remained there one year and after that, I started here at FAU, training once or twice a week. That was last year. 

Now, this year, I started training futsal. That is twice training a week and one day to play matches. This year has been the most difficult for me at this sport. I really enjoy it, is very challenging and it is great for my mind. It makes me be in peace and is the best way to canalize the stress of the Uni that has increased this year. That's why I enjoy playing football so much because I forget about everything when I play it. It is just me, my mind, the team, and the ball, everyone in harmony

Something I'm just knowing and I'd like to learn more

Well since this year began, a curiosity idea entered to my mind. I started to get interested in Japanese culture.  Everything started with a special attention to the drawings; I saw too many aesthetic on the anime! The sensitivity on those sketches, the feelings that could be shown in just one animated caricature. I could not take it; it was too much for me. I needed to know how that could be possible. I started to search, to ask friends, to learn about anime and to watch more and more. However, suddenly, something came out. The thing wasn't just the caricature, there was something else. There was a history, an entire culture that supported those feelings. That supplied the basis of anime.  After that, I started to watch movies and read articles about the Japanese culture but it wasn´t enough, I wanted more.  One day, while I was talking to a friend of mine, she told me she had a book. A book interesting that talked about the Japanese aesthetic and culture oriente

Why I like swimming

Imagen
I have always love sports. Since I have memory, I recognize my self playing around, running, kicking and throwing balls, jumping, etc. However, one of the things that made me happier was to swim. At first, when I recently knew the water, I felt respectfully. Always careful too. Nevertheless, when I learnt how to swim, I felt lot of confidence with the water. I enjoy swimming cause I feel like I am flying. I feel free, more than when I run. Swimming is so personal, you have to know your body to learn how much can you hold up your breath. There are many places where you can swim. There are lakes, Beaches, Pools, etc.  Is difficult for me to choose between beach or lake. Because those two are incomparable. The two of them are unique.  For one side we have the Beach that has its restrictions. You can´t swim too much, is difficult. You can’t open your eyes (I do it anyways although it hurts haha) and most of times, you should keep your mouth closed too. BUT! All of that

Pascuala Ilabaca

Today I'm going to write about one of the artists I most like. I had to choose one but I don't really have any favourite artist. I'm not sure why but I have allways really enjoyed every kind of art, so it was difficult to think of one type too. Anyways, this time I choosed Pascuala Ilabaca. A Chilean folk musician. I admire her for all the work she has done. She is like the contemporary Violeta Parra. She does history art research to compose music, she has traveled Chile north to south searching for interesting cultural things to add to her work. She has composed in mapudungun and indian languages. She like to mix cultures in her songs. Not just Chilean or just Mexican or Argentinian or Indian. She takes all of those, mix them and do something new with a particular aesthetic💓 She has a band that accompany her. They play saxophone, bugle (the best combination of sound), drums, guitars and bass Pacuala plays the piano or the accordion. She studied music here in Chile
