My favorite piece of technology!

My favorite piece of technology is my new laptop, I asked to my parents to buy me this laptop because the old laptop that I had was too heavy and big for carry it every day to university and this year I was thinking that is better to write my lessons in Word than in my notebook because I can send it for email to my partners when they didn’t go to the class; well, for all that I explained, my father bought me a new laptop in May, and then I had just a one problem: to write all my notebook’s subject again, now in my computer.

Anyway, I don’t use my laptop just for write my lessons, I use it for a lot of thing. When I am in class, if I don’t understand something that teacher said, I look for in internet (if Wi-fi is working) and I clear up my doubts. I used my laptop everyday: when I am in my house, my little brother ask me to watch videos of animals in Youtube, I always have to look my Mail! And I must admit: I use it to play too (I am really addicted to a game called CakeMania! jajaja).

I really love my laptop because is very portable and it doesn’t put hot when I use it hours and hours , I think I can live without it but probably my life would be very different, today technology is very necessary for people (and obviously for students), nevertheless we must set some limits.

The best website

The best place for find things that you need for resolve all your problems at 1 am isn’t only liquor store, the best place is in internet and every student must know it. Its link is www.catalogo.uchile.cl , probably you see it when you going to use a computer at library. Catálogo is an institutional database of University of Chile Bello created in 1994 that have near 900.000 items and, that I most like, works 24 hours of day!

This website allows search in any faculty of university: books, thesis, journals, etc. The searching you can do it putting topic, name of author, title of document or title of journal, also you can specify library that you know wherein is book, you can put in order according to author, topic, title, relevancy or date too.

Other functions of Catalogo Bello are students can regularize their accounts, renew borrowed books and booking other. Also here you can find other websites, like Cybertesis, which are very useful too. I visit this website everyday when I go to library o when I do a work.

A important fact is that if a book that you are searching isn't in your faculty, you can ask for this book and they will carry it to your faculty J

Films

Entertainment or stress could be reasons for watch movies at the cinema or just at home, with friends, with family or alone, the pleasure of watch films can be in different ways, but always will be a thing that we like.  Can be a romantic movie, action movie, scary movie, fiction movie, doesn’t matter the gender, the movies make us go out our reality. 

My favorite film is Big Fish, based on a novel with the same name; this movie was directed by Tim Burton and incorporates elements of magical realism. Principal actors are Albert Finney as Edward Bloom, Jessica Lange as Sandra Bloom (Edward’s wife) and Billy Crudup as William Bloom (Edward’s son). With a budget of 70 million, the film shows beautiful landscape and great effects through the plot that revolves around Edward’s fantastic life; magic, mystery, uncertainty and charm was summarized in a one character, Edward, I love that, also this movie brings back good memories because I watched with my friends when I was in the school ♥

I don't want tell you more about this movie; I prefer that you will watch it, you will not disappointed!
