My experience writing a blog

It's complicated for me, because when I think that I have write a blog, come to my mind that I have a lot of problems writing in english, always I make the same mistakes. I don't feel comfortable for some moments, even if I write first in spanish and late translate.
But, when the week pass and the class stop for a conflicts on the university, I learn more and read the rest of the blogs for my classmates. I think that I see the difference when they talk about a theme, my english is similar to Tarzan, and they have a very careful speech and a very more english vocabulary.

From these moment, I use more pages like "wordreference.com", sometimes Google Translate, and I wake up more early for stay in the first part of the season. even today I learn a little about a words that I use but I don't remember how it would be classified on grammar.
Another example is the way that I use some words, because some words mean different things in different times. But, I still have problems with the verbs and some words that doesn't have a full translation. Nevertheless, strike and all of the interruptions, I feel that I learned more about the use of the verbs at school.

My experience in the university

Today I tried to talk about the university and all the things that can explain my pass for this place, but it's a complicated story, also today I don't know how I could have the posibilities to study in one of the better universities on Chile.

The Story start on 2013, I have a lot of dreams to be a documentary maker, but I have two problem: I don't read the degree program and I'm live far far far away from the university.

Well, I learn a lot about the camera, the use of diferents kind of images and sounds, but I couldn't pass the final test in the especific class.  That is the reason for why I change my degree since Film maker to Journalist. Also, in my pass for the film maker degree I known some people, two o three that I consider my friends, because they have a madness similar to the madness that I have actually.
When the 2014 has arrived, I work for my dreams in the same space that I try to be a documentary maker, but in the next building, and we can see the reception in Journalism degree [We can see the reception in this image] is very diferent from the teachers dinner on cinema degree, But I was prepared for this challenge, I think that I can be a journalist.This year, I learn more about grammar and the use of the words, just like an extensive spanish lesson.
