Sunday morning.

Yesterday at the morning, I needed to take a bus to transport me; was around 11, and in the distance was around 5 kilometer, when I had been around 15 minutes in the bus, unexpectedly a friend of the driver started to fight with an indigent in the bus stop.  They were fighting with words and hits some minutes. Meanwhile, some people continuing up to the bus, and another were inside waiting to continue our ways.

Some minutes late, the driver asked to his friend up to the bus again, and continued the way. In this moment, the driver’s friend was upset, and he was saying none could say nothing to him, and the solution to his mind was shoot  the indigent, and during the bus trip he was explaining his friend the better way to do it is to take a motorbike and shoot that man and continue quickly his way. Then, he called some friend to ask if they could give him a motorbike for this situation, and another friend say yes to him, and in this moment he left the bus the bus and said the driver: well, I’ll go to solvent this problem, I’ll shoot him and see you in two hours.

Then, we simply continue our way.

Welcome to Venezuela and a simple Sunday morning.

task 1

The graph show how many graduates have  full time works four months after they graduated, is a comparison during 6 years since 1995 to 2001 in Australia.

Is possible to see the red column talk about females graduated, and the purple column about males graduated. The biggest peak for both was in 2000 when more than 84% of male had work, and around 83% of females.  In contrast, the deep drop was in 1995 and 1997 when males had just over 80% and females 78% in both years.

The only case when males and females had the same number of percentage of Australian graduates with full-time jobs four months after graduating was in 2001, with more than 82% for both.  In the other hand, in years 1996, 1998 and 1999 males had work in 81%, just over 80% and 82% (in the same order to each year), while females had work in 80%, just over 78% and 80% respectively.

This graph is the opportunity to know and compare the working life in Australian graduates and between women and men. 

Practicing for the IELTS. Task 1

The chart bellow tries to show how many students registered themselves in universities in different career around 6 years (since 1996 to 2001). In the vertical axis you can see amount students registered; in the horizontal axis talk about years to register and in the glossary show the color of each career.

You can see that during these years, is possible to see the mayor number of students were in Engineering and Technology; anyway, year after year this mount decreased,  started in almost 140000 students and finished in few more than 120000.

In contrast, Computer Science had an important rise, started less to 80000 and finished almost same to Engineering and Technology with just 120000. In the same way, is possible to see that the number of student registered in Biological Sciences was increasing slowly but year after year, since 80000 to around 950000.

On the other hand, Physical Sciences had little increase in students registered during this time, and is difficult to note the difference; similar that Medicine and Dentist where is possible to see a little rise, but not a dramatically one.

This table is an opportunity to know the change on number of students interested and registered  in different career at universities during this time.

Security sensation

In my life, the security sensation is almost an utopia, and not only about be criminality victim. I am talking about general things; for example: 10 months ago died an ex-president (he was a terrible and corrupt man, but now is almost the better person have ever existed, because is dead) then, today a group of people was walking with the corpse to the city; for this reason, streets was more collapsed than usual, and I didn’t know if I could back home, and decided don’t go to study the library and come back early; but in the same moment, people in this activity didn’t know if they could arrive where they wanted or cop could attack them, or maybe is a group of another kind of mad people could attack them, or if the government people could deny the activity or whatever…

Anyway,  when I arrived to my house, I was heated, and need to take a shower, but here didn’t have water; 6 hours latter water come back, and we are not sure how long will be it here.

In any part of this real story I told you about the fear I felt when I saw a lot of cop in the streets (before understand they was “protecting” mad people and their corpse) or about the terrible fear I felt when I was walking alone in the park and it was lonely and the possibility to be criminality’s victim increased to me; or about infinite experience like those I lived just today.

I dream with security sensation in my life; I suppose it is like feel sure about what government tell you, or your time planning; for example: today the most important news in NZ Herald talked about a terrible environmental disaster with oil spill, and is possible some sea animals will die; anyway a lot of teams are working to stop this problem; and possibly some people are worry about the disaster, but still, they are sure that government is doing the better possible work as they can to fix it.

I think the security sensation will be a discovery in my life almost so incredible as to know a bird without winds or people walking relaxed at night.

Dreaming with the first day.

Every day I woke up and wish in short time to be in the first day the rest of my life. Down to airplane, discovery the city smell, looking people face, knowing the place will be my elected home.

If I concentrate enough I can feel the air in my face and almost smell the city. If I close my eyes, I can be there some seconds.

People ask me, what is the typical food there? How are the people? Is it beautiful? What about the weather? But in my heart the only question is how Auckland smells? I feel when I know the smell, the rest of my life will have begun.

I can research about whatever I want, but the smell is the only thing I cannot have idea here.

I’m sure, I’ll have a good job there, great friends, a beautiful house, quiet lifestyle and happy life; but it will start only after know the specific Auckland smell.

Today, I’m not sure know many days are between my new home and me, but I know that smell is nearer day after day, and an special morning, sooner or latter, I’ll wake up and that smell will arrive to myself, my body will e fuel that specific air, and my new life will have begun.

Short and silly reflection.

For me is easier write tan read, I don’t know the reason, but furthermore I like more write. Is possible I’m a creative people, but also too narcissus to feel interests in the other creation…

The rare is my job passion is listening people; it is the reason to study and think every day. Still in this area sometimes I feel bored to read, but I have never felt bored to my job.

Anyway, I listening people to discover the unconscious their words and actions, it is a way to creation too.

Well, the point is: I can write when I’m tired, bored or sick; but to can read and enjoy it, I need be relax, happy, healthy and quiet. Now, I feel tired to study, I cannot read the book that I like; but still, I’m writing it.

Write is easier to read for me. I don’t understand, and I need improve my read ability.

I'm back

September 30, 2011

Well, I have long time without write here or writing few posts per months; but I was on vacation, in special mental vacations.

I am back, with some reflections, I have my plan A to go to NZ to study English and step by step have a work visa and my new life there. Nevertheless, this plan had some difficulties and I’m not sure if will be solvent soon. For this reason, I have my plan B in action, it is simply my first plan A: take here the IELTS and go there with my work visa.

The last week, I taken a diagnosis test to register myself in an English course, and I had very good score, and on Tuesday I’m start my course. The next months, ‘ll take the diagnosis test to register myself in a specific course for the IELTS,  that course start in November 21 and finish in January 28;  If I am here for this date, my plan is take the course, then take the IELTS on February.

Today, I started my IELTS practice and did a terrible work; maybe because I feel nervous when only think in this test, and also because I have lost the practice. In this way, my plans is work step by step slowly and increase the difficult when I’ll feel sure.

Now I can read English book and understand, but I read two pages for the IELTS and don’t know what mean. Do you think the only problem is my English level?

I don’t think so. I think, I have at less 3 problems: 1 nervous control; 2 difficult to keep the concentration with the timer playing; and yes, 4 I need improve my English level, but it is the smaller problem, I think so. What do you think?

This morning I did a task 2 for the IELTS so bad and short, I’ll wrote it here, and you can know difference between the new and older and tell me if you think the problem is my English level; now I can read long books and write about almost anything, and in the same moment to write it:

Frequently people think the talent is a natural ability and some persons have a specific one or not. In special are easy listen people talking about music natural talent.

In the last century a lot of scientific studied about born talents in music area, and they found generally child of music parents have better rhythm, and abilities to learn some instruments. In the same way they discovered the child of sportsman parents have better physical abilities in general.

However, for me is easy question myself about whether these characteristics are or not in relationship with the specific lifestyle of these children, and the wishes of their parents. I think, is possible each people have an important genetic heredity, but is fundamental the way you life.

On the other hand, is possible to know a lot of famous people in the history with great talents and with not talents parents. Normally people have or not have some natural talent, but the real difference you can find in their effort and perseverant. 

In conclusion, I think is possible you have a natural talent, but it cannot be use if you don’t work hard day after day. Is possible for some people with natural talent are easier than other learn something, but still, if you don’t work hard, you would not be successful.

What do you think?

Now I need improve in 3 areas, my nervous control, practice with the timer and my English level. Do you want to accompany my in this process?
