My laptop


My favorite piece of technology is my laptop. A laptop is a personal computer for mobile use. A laptop integrates most of the typical components of a desktop computer, so, it´s more practical.
It was a present from my parents in my 18 birthday party.
Well, for use it, i have to open it and push the central button and it just get on and i can use it for anything i need to.
How often do i use it? i guess that everyday and everynight!
I like it because i can use it for work, keep busy on internet, reading, watch some movie, talk with my friends and playing computer games. It allows me to play PLAYSTATIONs games, so i sold mine (the real thing is that my parents give it to a neighbor´s child, but is the same thing).

What about my life if i can´t have one? well, i think that studying would be something more difficult, and i would get bored staying in my house and maybe... i would be willing to do some outdoor activity like running around the park, camping in the forrest, swimming in the beach, climb some mountain  or just get together with my friends. For my happiness, that will never happen.

CRUEL INTENTIONS


     
     I think i´m going to talk about this movie. The plot is mainly driven by a bet held between the two main characters, Kathryn Merteuil (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Sebastian Valmont (Ryan Phillippe). It heavily involves manipulationseduction, and love in a rich and sophisticated socially elite youth atmosphere.
     I got notice of the existence of this movie, when in the 2000 MTV Movie Awards, she won for best villain, a lady defeated Darth Maul from Star Wars, Christopher Walken from Speepy Hollow, Matt Damon from The Talented Mr. Ripley and Dr. Evil from Austin Powers.
    She also won for the best female performance, but that is secondary. 
    Later i saw the movie and i could notice that the cruel part of the plot, is for her. I enjoy the movie because i never seen a movie where a very pretty girl was the most cruel character from a movie, but it was so confrontational and not from an innocent way, as was the cliché.

I person that i admire

  

  I´m going to speak about Ximena Rojas. She, with one of the 
highest scores on PAA,  chose biology as her career in Universidad de 
Chile and then she got a Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences in Harvard 
University. Working in my Faculty, is a recognized researcher in 
neuroscience with high impact publications, but the most important 
thing for me is that the loves teach what she knows. She´s currently 
the boss of the most important subject in the first year of Medicine: 
"Morphology applied to Clinical" that include histology, embryology, 
anatomy and neuroanatomy and that´s a lot of subjects and she easily 
dominated the four ones, and that´s is not a common thing in my 
faculty (for integrated subjects).
    I like her because is the most intelligent person that i ever meet 
and i been in Law Faculty and Engineering Faculty before, and the most 
nicer thing is that she try to never leave you like a ignorant. She is 
probably the modest doctor that i know and  also is too caring about for her 
students.
   I hope that one day, i can dedicated to teaching and she´s my 
model to follow.
