Me and my dog...



Believe it or not, the child on the picture is me. This picture is special to me because is of the few picture that I have of my childhood. I think I was 6 or 7 years old, I don’t remember. At that time, I lived in Santa Barbara, a town near Los Angeles, in the 8° region. Who took the picture? I don’t remember, I think was my godmother but I’m not sure. In the picture, I’m with my dog Yogi, like the bear. It was a special dog to me. It lived 14 years with me, since I was 4 years old until I was 18 years old. Even when Yogi was old, it always accompanied me to everywhere. I was very sad when Yogi died, but such is life. Now, I can see that I was a very happy child. I would like return to that time of my life. I’m going to keep this picture for ever!

Now, only a question stays. What happened to me?!!!!

My favourite piece of technology...


My favourite piece of technology is the remote control, I know, it's not something very modern, but it's the best thing invented by human been. This thing is just for the lazy people, like me. It’s great being able to change channels when we are over our bed or sat in our favourite sofa. Our TVs, stereos, DVD player’s even things like lighting can work with a remote control. When we lose the remote control, we can search it for whole room tirelessly, but, we aren't able to walk to the TV and push the buttons of the panel.
I remember that I used a remote control for the first time when I was 8 or 9 years old, and from there always I have had at least one remote control.
Now I have four remote controls in my room. The first one is of the TV, the second one is of the DVD player, the third one is of the stereo and the fourth one is of the TV card of my pc. Even my cell phone can be used like a remote control with devices that have Bluetooth.
Is not necessary to say that I use a remote control every day when I watch TV or when I listen to music. All of us have used a remote control in our lives, and we know how to use it. You only have to push a button, pointing the remote control to the TV, stereo, DVD player, or the device that you want. I can’t imagine life without the remote control. I would have to walk to change the channels or to raise the stereo’s volume. That would be terrible!!!

Something about me!


Hi!.. my name is Arturo, and I'm 22 years old.
I'm from Santiago and I'm a Veterinary Medicine's student.
before starting to study Veterinary Medicine, I tried to study Agronomy, but it didn't work,
but, in the end, it was the best, because my vocation is work with animals.

Through this blog, I hope to expose my ideas, concerns, and the most important,
to learn english and practice it!
