Conclusion

    From time to time you find ways to be creative and to expand your knowledge. Through the time I was doing this blog I have a wonderful experience full of knowledge, as I say. Every time I was going to make a new entry, assign for the class, I found my self doing research and I can say for certain that this was a helpful technique to learn about new things and the reality in the world. Each theme or topic was extensive but I shrink it in one situations or pictures that take my attention during the research. This was a gratifying experience because I can talk about some important things and problems that affects our humanity with facts. Is always good to express your self and talk about from your perspective of the things that matter. I learn that you can always give and be an inspiration for someone else. 

    This blog make me grow to be a better person, who care about problems, about the reality in this world, that isn't beautiful. I grow with the dream to fight for what I think is worth. Now, I can't stop because I know and I can't ignore the realities and the difficulties. 

    Today I finish a stage in the course but not mean that I wouldn't be writing again, I would like to continue making noise, writing about the situations or the things that I like. For this opportunity I can only thanks my English teacher, doing this blog was an awesome idea. All this world need is more people that can be 
capable of inspired with words and through it we can be better human beings. 

The World

     The world is falling apart, and the human being need to take responsibilities of preserve the only planet that is known to be viable to live. I'm so pissed off with all the things that are happening nowadays around the world. Violence, war, discrimination, prejudice, and a lot of contamination from different sources. And I think what are in the mind of those that are capable of making the world a cruel one. Is only one world and it need that the people start to share, love, and preserve what we receive from nature. Why fight and destroy the people that not have the same ideals? Why we all can't be in peace? Why we contaminated, knowing that this affects our health and the world. Why the humans kind is so ambitious and want to have more earnings every day? I constantly ask my self those questions and I don't find the answer to any of them. 
     Left behind the religion, race, social state, ideals, and start thinking in the beauty of life if we open our minds to see that in all of the differences that we can have, exist little but powerful similarities that have more value than all the differences. Thinking that all problems have solution and any of them involves violence or war should be our common knowing. Prioritizes the important things in our life, the ones that we can't survived without, and that our world give to us freely but not unlimited like the water. For that it's so important to minimize the contamination. Also, please, live apart of violence, be understood with the differences that makes each of us special.
     We are all equals, and every one deserve the same treat. If people don't start to make consciousness we all can finish without a world to live in. Destroying every day all the things that some powerful entity gave us in no living and loving. Our work was, is and always will be only one, take care of the world, love it, stop living like animals without thinking and start living as the humans we are.

Education

    "Education is the most powerful weapon, which yo can use to change the world" says Mandela. I totally agree with this quote, I think that it's important to be educated and no matter the way, always keep learning and exploring new things in life. Been educated it's a privilege and a opportunity that can give a lot of rewards. No matter if a person go slowly or fast in the road for learning, the point is that never stop learning. It only can take a person to crash all the obstacles that can be in the way, to accomplish or to reach the top.

     In the world nowadays exists a lot of ways of education and every place have their techniques to teach their students. One that take my attention was the education system in Finland, it's so different to U.S. and Puerto Rico. Finland is, say by the PISA inform, one of the country with a high level education. They have a philosophy that say: "Less is More" witch they believe and live by it. Contrary to others systems that believed that more is more, trying day by day with new methods, ideas, and initiative. Thinking that "more" is the resolution of all education problems. More classes, more homework, more content, more pressure, more testing. But this only cause more frustration, and more stress in students. I can say that the differences of the education in Finland to other is that it's less tangible and more fundamental, they truly believe "Les is More". Less time in school more rest, fewer teachers more consistency and care, fewer classes more breaks, less testing more learning, fewer topics mare depth.

     Despite the differences between the educations systems around the world they have one important thing in common, they promote the learning, the improvement and academic development of each one of the students. All with a purpose, give the tools they need to create a better feature.

Movies

    

    Who does not like to spend a whole day watching movies.  I surely don't have any problem with it, of course I watch them in my free time. I love all kinds of films, from the romantic and funny ones to the action and horror. I enjoy seeing them on the theater but also in the comfortable atmosphere of my home. For me the movies are methods of relaxation and entertainment, so it never hurts if it's in front of the TV the moment to enjoy a good movie.

    As I said I love all kinds of movies but some of my favorites are the musicals ones. My favorite musical movie is Pitch Perfect, which I can see repeatedly and don't get tired. Apart of being a musical is also a comedy, and that's why I love so much this movie. It also have an amazing cast including Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson and Skylar Austin. They are my favorites in this movie but there are so many other amazing and funny actors. This film was release in 2012 and was directed by Jason Moore. The plot follows a college women's a cappella group, The Barden Bellas, as they compete against another a cappela group from their college to win Nationals.

      I recommended this movie to all fans of musicals and comedy movies. I assure that anyone would be disappointed of this great and funny film. And if they see and enjoy the first one is definitely an obligation to see the second part that is also awesome and was release this year, but for me, nothing like the first one. I'm just waiting for the third part so anxiously. See movies is like a hobby to me so until the third arrive I will continue deligthing and entretaining with others movies that I need to see.

Celebrity

    Celebrity status is often associated with wealth and fame. For me celebrities are people who contribute in positives ways to the society. I have always been fascinated with the example and the person hood of Malala Yousafzai. Malala was born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora Pakistan. As a young girl Malala Yousafzai defied the Taliban in Pakistan and demanded that girls be allowed to receive an education. Her hometown began to change as the Taliban tried to take control. Malala is know for her unceasing necessity of the search of equality for women. Malala attended a school that her father, Ziauddin Yousafzai, had founded. After the Taliban began attacking girls school in Swat, Malala gave a speech an the title was, "How dare the Taliban take away my basic right to education?" That was her first move in order to assure the education for the girls in her country and around the world. She was shot in the head by Taliban gunman in 2012, but survived. She continue the fight wanting that girls around the world have the same treatment over men. She wrote a blog in 2009 where she talk about her point of view about education and how was life under the constants attacks from the Taliban. For this fight and dream she was awarded with the Nobel Prize in 2014 where she says: "I will continue with this fight until I saw all children can go to school". Actually She have a foundation which finance small organizations that promote education. 

      I think we need more people and celebrities like Malala, who inspired young people to fight against injustice and why they think is better. Example that  the age is not important to make big changes and too be heard for the entire world.

Media

 
influences-of-media-on-the-society
   
      Media is known as the collective communication or tools used to store and deliver information and data. The media plays an important role in the building of a society. It's information works in order to mold a life style. Media has changed the societies so much that we can't ignored it's importance. It includes sources like newspapers, magazines and electronic webs. There's no doubt that media influences us and affects the way we act and think. 
     This influences is categorizes as a negative because people act in order to imitate the behavior of their celebrities, and makes us soft and  weak to a society full of imagination. Imagination it's not like creativity. Too much imagination makes people vulnerable and unable of making right decisions. We change our minds according to the information provided through it. The changes in the behaviour and outlook of people towards life are attributable to the negative psychological effects of media. Changes in cultural and moral values have been observed. Many people believe that what is depicted by the media is true and acceptable, altering their judgment and causing alterations (Influences, 2015).
    In the other hand the positives effects are that the common man gets the latest news within a fractions of seconds. Also the news get trough media help then in their daily life a lot. The media helps to bring out the hidden talents of the people and some others are able to learn many good things through media.
     Media have to faces, one negatives and one positive, and both play important roles in society. At this time, we are living in a world were media assure the function and development of a diverse groups of people and we surely can't live without it because makes life more easy in terms of communication and viable ways of interactions between people.
