My blogging experience
I think that to learn English using the blog is positive and it could be an advantage. It allowed me to learn in a didactic way, more technological and entertaining way. Also, in the blog, not only the teacher is able to see the task, but also the classmates, who interact and get to know each other. Also, I think that the length of the taks is appropriate, since it gives enough space to write about the subjects. One of the desadvantage of the blog it's that some topics of the task were boring and not interesting, in consequence, doing them was not always interesting and I was less motivated. For example, I didn't like the
task called "My favourite piece of technology".
Also, I believe that every three blog we shoud have a class of blog with the exclusively objetive of correcting the blogs that have been written.

My Ideal Job.
There is a lot of demand for people to perform these tasks in all sorts of organizations. However, there are also a lot of people wanting this type of job. In order to get to one of these jobs, one needs to begin from selection of personnel and slowly go up to positions with bigger level of responsability.

Creativity
I saw Ken Robinson's presentation and I found it very interesting. It is common to to judge how educated and successful a person is by his/hers professional degrees. However, every day it is more evident that the degrees are not enough in a world that changes very fast and new skills are needed to be able to adapt to changes. To know many theories, to have a lot of knowledge is not enough if it is not used with creativity, which is developed from childhood.
In order to develop creativity it is necessary to teach children to adjust to the changes that they face day after day, when they deal with new technologies, new competitions, etc. This ability can be more important than having only a degree. Some people without degrees are becoming more productive and successful today than people who feel safe with their degrees, don`t take risk, nor innovate and are not creative.
The educational system in Chile generate professionals that are productive for the capitalist system, but with a system that it is not sustainable because nowadays everything changes very fast and the knowledge that is being taught today, is not always significant for tomorrow. The educational system should develop the talents that every student has, without being ruled by rigid parameters. Looking to develop creativity that is the tool that will open doors to students
in their future.

Hypnosis
much in work related to regressions. Through hypnosis you can allow a person to live again an experience that happened in a very early stage of his life. It is for example possible, to ask a person to remember the happiest moment. This semester I have learned through reading, researching and practice by hypnotizing different people. The more I practive, the more I learn.

My Future
In 5 more years…
In 5 more years I’ll be 27 years old and I’ll have my psychology degree and a post-graduate degree. I will be working in the area of labor psychology and in parallel I’ll continue taking courses on Humanist psychology because, in a future further away, I’d like to work in clinical psychology. Also, I see myself living with friends or with my couple, in a very colorful house with decoration done by me. I’ll feel my house, or my room, as an expression of myself.
I’ll have a fun life full of activities with friends and family. I will travel to different places in the world during my vacations, like India, Tailandia, Turquia, and do many hobbies such as dance, singing, courses on alternative therapies, etc. Also, I hope by a secure and happy person who is comfortable with everything she is doing.

Who is the best in your field?
In psychology I believe that Carl R. Rogers is the best. Rogers went from being a religious person to studying clinical psychology at Columbia University where he received his PhD in 1931. In the 20th century, he was an innovator in his field since he created a new way of seeing psychology and did big contributions in the area of the humanistic psychology that are still relevant today. I believe that he is one of the best because he created new theories that woke up the interest of many psychologists and amateurs in the topic generating a revolution in the humanistic area until today. From his life experience he learned many things that led him to develop studies on the process in which a person gets to know himself and to recognize the auto regulation power of the body. His texts are interesting and I'd definitively recommend them, especially to people interested on the topics of personal development and the world that exists inside of every person.
