Evaluation of blog experience

I think that my experience writing the blog was fun; it helped me to learn a little more about my classmates and their careers. It was a little difficult at first because I didn't have a good vocabulary, but I learned a lot of new words doing this activity and also improved some mistakes that I tended to make, like the use of past tense. In school I didn't receive a good formation in English, my teachers used to miss classes and the school normally gave us that hour as a recess, and I only used to write in English to make some comments on YouTube. So, I thought that it was going to be a difficult work for me, but it was very easy, mostly because we had to write about familiar things or about our interests. The fact of writing comments on our classmates post also was fun because we shared our opinions and show some interesting things to the others. I tried in every class to read my classmates’ posts and leave a comment.  I just think that this didn’t help me very much to my pronunciation, and that’s the thing I want to improve. But, although there were topics to write about more interesting that others, I think it was a good experience, I’m going to miss write in my blog (really).

                                          

Noooooo, I want to write more posts :'(

Blog Session 9

http://unaantropologaenlaluna.blogspot.cl/

I found this site about two years ago, when I was investigating about what anthropology is. I read some articles on it and I found them really interesting, even more because it was wrote by a woman anthropologist, so I added it to my “favorites” and it is still there.

I like that there are posts about every topic, always when I look for something on Google, I find a post in this blog about it. Yesterday I was looking for information about the sentineleses, a tribe that lives in an island of India, totally in isolation for the world. So, I was reading about it and I discovered a really complete post in this blog, and also others ones about related topics, like “el hombre del agujero” or the last survivor of the Yai tribe, Ishi. But the blog does not talk about tribes only; there are other interesting things like contemporary events, always linking it with anthropologist work. I think I’m never going to read all the posts because there are many and I’m very lazy, but I think that it is a good blog to know a little more about the work of an anthropologist.

Today, I’m going to talk about the most amazing animals in the world: Dogs.

Dogs are descendants of wolves, but they were tamed, and for that reason they acquired the characteristic we can see today, such as different colors, sizes, weights, etc.

They have a very developed sense of hearing and smell, and some evidence say that they were living with humans about 9000 years ago. Today, they have a lot of functions due to their docility and intelligence; they can be assistance dogs, rescue dogs, sheep dogs or just company dogs.

I like them because they are very loving and intelligent! My dog is able to bring me the toys that I ask for, he can understand some words and also he can communicate some things, obviously not talking, but doing some actions that I can interpret. He goes crazy when he sees me after a week away! I think that every person needs to have a dog in their lives to know what true and unconditional love is.
