mona's blog

So, today I'm gonna write about my blog and how was the experience of writing it every week. At the beginning I didn't like it cause I really don't like talking about me, but when the weeks were passing I got used to it, I think it was very useful cause in the first blog I had to translate a lot of words, but in every new blog were less the words that I had to search for, and I’m not gonna lie, I knew how to write before taking the class, but the blog has gave me more confidence, cause before every time that I wrote something in english I always thought that it was wrong and now it’s not like that. Now, about the topics I did like the most of them, except the ones that were about the career, they were a little bit boring, it was more interesting writing about our hobbies, or things that we liked and stuff like that, if I’d have to write the blog again, I’d like a topic about books, or friends, or what things we like to do, where we like to go, things like that, but in gene...

Well, to be honest, in this semester I haven't liked the subjects very much, but if I had to choose one I think it would be chemical laboratory techniques, in part this subject make us closer to the career, we learnt to use the basic instruments that are necessary to work in a laboratory, we learnt doing things because the theorical part was minimal, we began learning the security measures and the instalations of a laboratory, then we learnt how to use the balances, how to prepare solutions and do valuations of them, how to do extractions and distillations, among other things. I haven’t had very good marks in the tests but I think that I learnt a lot of things and that it was a useful subject. I hope the next semester the subjects are more interesting, I will have biology which is my favorite subject since ever and is the subject where I have more knowledge, it was my mention in the university selection test so I think it will be easier for me, so things will be a little bit better...

Well, today I’m gonna write about a known pharmaceutical chemist, Karl Friedrich Mohr, a German pharmacist. He was born in 1806, in Coblenza, Germany, he was the son of a pharmacist what may explain his interest in this field. At the age of twenty one he began his studies of pharmacy in the Heidelberg University, finishing them in the Berlin University. When his father died he inherited his father’s pharmacy. He’s considered the father of volumetric analysis, due to his research needs, he did create and improve some laboratory instruments, he improved the burette which improvement was a clamp called Mohr’s clip, which helped to restrict the flow of gasses and liquids through the simple burette, and actually it is used in flexible tubes. He also helped in the creation of the hydrostatic balance named Mohr-Westphal, used in the laboratory to determinate the densities of liquids. , there’s even a salt that has his name in honor for his advances in chemical assessments. Besides this inv...

Well, today I’m gonna write about my favorite movie, it is a Spanish movie called “Tesis” wrote and directed by Alejandro Amenabar, it was released in 1996. It is a suspense movie and is about an image student that is working in her thesis and she decides to make it about violence, so her thesis director decides to help and get her some videos but at the next day he’s found dead. Angela finds it and decides to take the movie the director was watching before he died. After that Angela knows Chema, a classmate expert in gore and pornographic cinema. They look the movie together and see that it’s a snuff movie where a girl that was part of the university is brutally killed. They begin to investigate who was the person that killed the girl. I watched this movie 5 years ago and since that moment is my favorite movie because it’s about a strange topic, personally before watching it I didn’t know what snuff was, and I think that if you like suspense movies you should really watch it. It is...

Well, I don't have many important pictures because they use to be photos that I take of myself haha and I don't like that people take pictures of me so, but I think that this pic is one of my favorites because it's the only one that I have with my mother  who is the most important person in my life and it’s from my gala party, I like it ‘cause in that moment I remember being so relaxed finishing high school and I thought that in university things would be easier or at least I would be studying things that I was interested in but I was so wrong haha, also it was a really good night and I had a nice time. I don’t really know who take it, but maybe was an ex-classmate, it was taken in 2015 and to be honest I like how I look in it.

  Well, I don’t have a favorite genre of music because I use to listen anything that calls my attention, but I do have favorite bands and songs. My favorite band is “Placebo” that is a britanic band and plays alternative rock, I like it since I was 10 because my sister used to listen to them, I think I like all the albums but the ones I like the most are “Battle for the sun” and “Meds”, although my favorite song by them is “Exit wounds” from their last album “Loud like love”. I also have a second favorite band and is “De saloon” it’s a Chilean band and I like them since I was 10 too, my favorite albums by them are “Morder” and “Mar de nubes”, and the song I like the most is “Carne”.  I’ve seen them play many times, even I have a picture with the vocalist but my face isn’t the best :( haha. Finally my favorite singer is Alex Anwandter, I liked him when he was part of “Teleradio Donoso” and I like him now, I like a lot his project “Odisea” and his two albums “Rebeldes” and...

Well, I’m not really a fan of techonology, I don’t like computers or consoles, but I think that it would be my phone, because it’s useful and I can practically do anything with it, take it with me anywhere and it’s easy to use, I mainly use it to listen to music, take pics, and be in contact with my family, friends and boyfriend, also I can be constantly checking the university page, so I can see my marks, documents that the teachers send and it’s very practical. I have the Motorola Moto G4 plus, it was a Christmas present, and well I did expect more of it, but I’m a little disappointed, maybe I didn’t give it a good use, it doesn’t function very well but maybe that’s because it fell into the water hahah, I’d like to go back to some Samsung Galaxy so I hope I can change it this year.
