An article from The Guardian about...the elections in Chile???? Nice...

Hello my fellas, in this day I'm going to talk about an article from the Guardian, an English news portal...


I choose news about the elections in Chile, with the results of this: The election of student leaders.

In this Sunday, the elections in Chile are choosing a president, congress members and regional counsellors; but the elections of the congress members had a surprise: Four ex-student leaders of the student movement in 2011 are elected. The new congress members are Camila Vallejos, Karol Cariola, Giorgio Jackson and Gabriel Boric.

Camila Vallejos is elected by the district of La Florida, in the Metropolitan Region, with a majority in the votes, being the 1st majority in her district. She was the president of the Universidad de Chile's Students Federation (FECh) in 2010/2011 she represents the Communist Party, who have a coalition with other parties, making the Nueva Mayoría coalition, the parties of the left side of the politics in Chile. She said "We're going to celebrate in the streets of La Florida", like a representative act for the people who choose her.

Another case is Giorgio Jackson, who is elected by the district of Santiago Centro, in the Metropolitan Region, with a majority in the votes, like Camila Vallejos. He was the president of the Universidad Catolica's Students Federation (FEUC) in 2010/2011. He doesn’t have any representation of any party, he's an independent, but he represents the same coalition of Camila, the Nueva Mayoría coalition. He had found the votes of the students and young people to represent in the congress, and he made it.

In other case, in the Metropolitan Region too, is Karol Cariola. She is a Communist Party member, like Camila Vallejos, and she was the president of the Universidad de Concepcion's Students Federation (FEUdeC) in 2010/2011. She is elected by the district of Recoleta, Independencia and Conchali, in the Metropolitan Region. She represents the Nueva Mayoría coalition too.

However, a particular situation is lived in Punta Arenas, in the Austral Region of Magallanes, in the South of Chile; because the candidate Gabriel Boric, an ex-president of the Universidad de Chile's Students Federation (FECh) in 2011/2012, is elected in the district of Punta Arenas with the 1st place in votes. He's an independent candidate and he doesn't have any coalition, he was choosing without no political helps and favors, breaking the pronostics.

This 4th cases are a signal of a new age of the politics in Chile, is the representation of the new faces and the unhappy people who don't believe in the old politics and his members; it's the evidence of the renovation.




Bye bye...

Election day!!!! this sunday!!!!

Hello everybody!!!!

This sunday is the election day in Chile, everybody will have the posibility to vote for a new president, new congress representants and new regional counsillors.

On this day, I will vote, my local of votes is the Carmela Carvajal school, in Providencia. I vote because it's a right, and we didn't have it in a moment of the history of this country, we need to valorate that; and a vote is a civil responsability, if you want something for our country, you should vote this day!!!!!

The electoral campaigns in Chile are very unnecesary, I think the people vote for the most popular person and don't vote for the best ideas, it's a popular vote, no an informated vote, it's very sad and I'm dissapoined for that =/

A person who works in a public position should be honest, responsable, sociable and have some knowledge of the public sector, language and laws.

I consider to begin a political career, but in my local residance, in Providencia; I hope to work for my district and do the best work for my neighbohours; I know their necesities because I have lived all my life in Providencia. =D

In my electoral district (Ñuñoa-Providencia) we need the answers of the crime in the streets, the delinquency in this district is increasing and we don't have any answers for that; we need someone who legislates about that topic, we need someone who represents the neighbohours of Ñuñoa and Providencia.

Thats  all for today
See ya'

Я уехал бы в Россию (I would go to Russia)



Hi my fellas


When we think in some countries which we like to visit, we remember the same countries and places: Paris in France, London in the U.K., New York in U.S.A., Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, Tokyo in Japan and so many places...But I like the countries which have a touristic interest base on the history, the culture and the activity of walking in the city for a long time.

I like the cold countries, like Finland, Canada Czech Republic and Germany; but I love Russia.
It's a bigger country with a long and interesting history reflected in the streets, squares and buildings. Moscow is the capital of Russia, is a luxurious city with the best of the XVIII century and the XXI century; you can find a mixture of the past and the present, it's amazing!!!!!. Maybe you think I'm mad because I would like to go to the coldest country in the world, but I love the snow, the view of the city in winter and the winter sports (like ski, snowboard and snow rally car).

I don't know so much about Russia.
Moscow is the capital of Russia since the birth of the Union of Soviet Socialists Republics in 1917; before that, the Russian Empire had a Zar who lived in Saint Petersburg (in the northern of Russia, in the coast of the Scandinavia Bay).
Russia is the biggest country in the world, if you want to cross all the country (from Moscow to Vladivostok), you need to cross 9.000 km. Russia have a long culture of the history, the Russians still have the buildings of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union.
People in Russia speak in Russian, like the title of this post, I think it's a complicated language because it has rare pronunciation of a word and rare letters.
In Moscow, you can find some touristic places, like the Red Square (the biggest square in the world), the Saint Basil Cathedral, the Kremlin (a fortress with governmental buildings), the Volga River, the Moscow University, the KGB (a secret police of the Soviet Union) Building, the Lenin's Mausoleum and the Moscow Subway.
Some people think about the night life in Moscow, they say it's a madness, so many parties and drinks and good music, a same level like Ibiza (Spain), Monaco (France) and London (U.K.)

I would like to stay there one or two weeks, to see the city in the day and the night, eat the Russian food (like Strogonoff with a good vodka) in a boat in the Volga River, take a picture of all signs of luxury, like the lamps in the Subway or the cars in the street, go to practice with the ski in some winter center near Moscow or Saint Petersburg, learn a few of Russian (It's a challenge xD).

Mmmmm...Maybe I wouldn't like to live in Russia, because it's cold all the year, and I need some days of beach and sun and holidays xD, It's good for one or two weeks, maybe three; but live there...no. And study there...I didn't listen about the career in Russia and I don't know the quality of the universities, except the Moscow University, which is one of the bests universities in Europe.

Some places which I also like to visit is Ibiza (Spain), Hong Kong (China), Cape Town (South Africa), Reikjavik (Iceland), London (U.K.), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Vancouver (Canada)...but I talk of another place in another moment.

That's all for today
See ya'

My ideal job

My ideal job...

I'm not so specific with a job,I don't wait for the ideal job because I can take any job and that's not a problem.
But, if I can choose, I would to work in a ministry, specially public works, defense, international relationships or interior and public safety, always I understand the social work like the safety of the society, attack the crimes, provide the society with constructions for the city and enhance the relationships with our international neighbors, specially in South America.

That's my ideal job, being realistic; but if I can choose any job...

I have always had the dream of flying, I like the planes and jets...I wanna be a pilot.
To be a pilot you need to be a calm person and be very patient, maybe it's not so funny flying a jet 8 hours without a rest xD; but the sensation of the power to fly and lift a big and heavy jet sounds very exciting. And if I were a pilot, I could visit so many countries and places which I have never visited in my life.
Another important characteristic of a pilot is the responsibility, If you are the captain of the jet, you have the responsibility of all people on the jet, seems like passengers and the crew; your decision could take a safety fly or a fatal accident.
And if you wanna be a pilot, you can't be a claustrophobic person, because you need to be in a small room in the fly.

I'm a very responsible person and I'm not a person of risks, always I choose the safest decision for me and the people around me. I have the body for a pilot (I'm taller than 1,75 meters; for the pedals and the head buttons xD) and i'm not a claustrophobic person, I can do anything without a rest in a long time.

In this country, if you don't study the career of commercial pilot or you aren't a F.A.Ch. (Chilean Air Force) pilot officer, you can't be a pilot of any airline, and you need many hours of flying practice to be an international pilot of an airline. The career and the practice in a jet is very expensive, so you need so much money to be a pilot.

Well, that's the reason of the dream, it's very difficult =S

Well, I hope you like it...

Greetings =D

About me...again xD

Hello my fellas

This is me again, my name is Gustavo Zapata, and in this moment I'm a 21 years old, nearly 22 (in 4 days I'll be 22 years old xD)and I'm from Providencia, in the city of Santiago de Chile I'm a student of public administration in the Universidad de Chile, I'm doing the 4th year of the career and I'm so nervous to start working in the government of Chile; in a new world for me...

I'm gonna talk about my hobbies and activities in a normal day jajajajajaja: Well, I like the music and I'm a fan of the electro-music (seems like David Guetta, Afrojack, Zedd, Steve Aoki, Skrillex, Luis Lopez and others) and I like the parties with this music, these parties make me feel right and free =), it's a way to be happy in these days of a hard work.

An unknown hobby about me is the hobby of the cars, I love the mechanical and I care so much the cars of my family: A Fiat Palio and a Toyota Yaris. I'm not running in the streets, don't worry xD; but I love to take care of them and I love driving, except in the peak time of the city, it's very horrible.
I wish to have my own car; a cheap, beauty, fast and reparable car; like a Peugeot 205 or a Austin Mini; a possible monsters jajajajaja

Well; you know me a little bit...but you want to know my weakness with the English and my expectations for English IV: I'm very weak listening the English, the North Americans speak so fast and I'm so slow to listen to them, it's so hard for me. The problem of understand the English it's not fundamental because once I listen to the speech, I understand so nice; but the problem is the velocity of the English. I'm good writing and reading the English, but I think I need to practice the speaking in English; I don't have the possibilities for practicing this topic and I need to speak for recovering the good speak.

I hope to get better in the listening and recover my abilities for the speaking in English; those are my expectations for the class. And I hope to have a funny and practical class, take challenges and listen and speak in English so well.

That's all my fellas; see ya'

2nd Term of 2013: I'm back!!!!

My Database of my career

Hello everybody

In this moment, I gonna talk about one of my favourite website for my career of public administration.
The website is the National Congress Library ("Biblioteca del Congreso Nacional" in spanish); the website is "http://www.bcn.cl/"

This website contains all kind of books about the gouvernement and the rights of our constitution. With this website I was all kind of homeworks and notes about Rights and Administrative Theories. Is a complete website for the people who work with the gouvernemnt and the people who cares about the gouvernement funcions and accions.

I visit this website one time for a week at least, that depends if I had a work or a homework and others, but I like work with this website. For example, I work with this website in the class of Administrative Rights because in that class, the professor do questions about the rights and the constitution, and I can download the right and their points.

Is a very usefull website for people like me, people who cares about the gouvernemnt and the accions of that...

Well, that's all

See you soon; and remember, is a very usefull website =D
