Cinema and Me

Hello my classmates!

Today I will talk about my love for cinema. Well, I like cinema since my childhood. My father and me have always  gone to the cinema, watching movies in the cinema was an especial moment.  At present, sometimes I go to the cinema with my father, because he doesn’t have much time, he is always busy working. In addition, today we don’t have the same cinema preferences. But, when I go to the cinema with him is very nostalgic. Now, I have a new partner for cinema things. He is my boyfriend, he loves cinema like me, and the cinema has united us.

Today, I like many film directors, who are really dissimilar like: Alfred Hitchcock, Woody Allen, Ingmar Bergman, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Francis Ford Coppola, Sofia Coppola, Pedro Almodovar, Lars von Trier, David Lynch, Emir Kusturica, Fritz Lang, and many others.

 I love cinema, I like reading about cinematic techniques, cameras, scripts, directors, genres, etc. I like to be aware of all the good premieres and contemporary films. I do not know if one day I can study filmmaking, but for now I like self-education.      

France, Simone de Beauvoir and Feminism

Hello everybody!

Today I will talk about the country that I would like to visit. The truth, I would like tour my country, before meeting another country. But I would like to visit France, because it is a country that is used as a backdrop in many films; because is the country of romance and the country of great artists and geniuses; Also, I think the French language is the most beautiful in the world. My boyfriend tells me romantic phrases in French, and I love it. Also, I love Italian food, especially the noodles and sauces.

I love Simone de Beauvoir, a French woman, feminist and philosopher, and I would visit the places that she visited, I would like his house and his grave.

In many years, I would like to go to study in France. France is a good place to specialize in gender, because this country is very important for the development of feminism. France is not only a beautiful country, also is a good country for cultural, social and intellectual.

My Ideal Job

Hello my classmates:

Today I will talk about my ideal job. Really, I have many ideal jobs very connected with my career: Psychology. For example, I would like work in attention to victims of violent crime, I would like work teaching about gender-based violence in schools, and I would like work in prison, in Crime prevention and social reintegration of offenders.

And the qualities and skills that I need for these jobs are technical knowledge about:  gender-based violence and the relationships of power and subordination in general, Interventions to reduce harm from the violence (in the victims) and the prison (in the offenders), and finally I need technical knowledge about the education and consciousness about gender-based violence.

I think that this works are very good jobs, because this works are often socially invisible and undervalued, but are very revolutionaries y it can generate important changes.

I think that is very difficult to find these kinds of jobs, because are jobs that no one wants to do.
