Time for Travelling!

I think that travelling is so much fun, but it can be also really tiring, there are many countries I’d like to visit, and it’s hard choosing one right now, so I’m gonna pick two of them…
Germany
I have an ex boyfriend on Germany and we are super closed to each other so I miss him so much and I’d love to see him again. What do I know about Germany? Not much really, only that they speak deutsch and I don’t know that language, but I wouldn’t mind having to learn it.  I’d like to stay there but not forever just some time doing absolutely nothing more than having a great time (I can dream, right?).
The United States
There’s nothing that I’d really like to visit there but I have an amazing friend who lives in New York City and I’d love to work with her for some time, she always has super lovely projects and I’m totally in love with her. I met her last year and I’ll probably gonna see her again on 2012, we are constantly emailing each other and talking via skype.
Have a super happy new year! xoxo, Daniela

Time for Movies!

I don't have a favourite movie, but I love many movies I've seen, one of them is called The Virgin Suicides, and it was directed by Sofia Coppola in 1999. It’s about a group of male friends that become obsessed with the life of the Lisbon sisters, who are sheltered from the world outisde by their strict parents after one of the sisters commits suicide.The movie was inspired by a book with the same name, written by Jeffrey Eugenides.

I love Sofia Coppola’s work, many people say that her movies are boring because they are slow,but I absolutely love them and I can watch them over and over again. I love the aesthetic and the atmosphere she creates. Beyond that, I think that she has a gender perspective that  she expresses in a beautiful way. When I see her movies I feel the need to dress up in a very ethereal way and eat cupcakes and macaroons, and drink some champagne in the grass to then watch the sunset.

Do you like movies? Do you have a favourite one? Maybe a favourite director? Let me know about it!

Sequins and Strawberrys, Daniela.

Firstly I’d like to introduce myself since this is my firt time posting on a blog. My name is Daniela and I study sociology at Universidad de Chile, I have this english class and I was requested to create this blog.
I’m gonna talk about my expectations for this new term. I want to learn many things and to have good marks, and the most important right now is: to aprove Sociological Theory I, tomorrow I have the second test so wish me luck!
The subjects I’m taking are: Stadistic (III), Sociogical theory (I and II), Cualitative Thecniques  (I), Epistemology and English (IV).
This semester is a little bit different ‘cause we will be studying almost the whole summer, but I don’t mind, I’ve heard my classmates complain about it but I love summer, and I rather go to university on summer than on winter (winter is too cold and I don’t want to get out my bed so early).  


In some other news tomorrow I'm meeting a friend and I hadn't see her in many time, so it will be an amazing evening. Keep me updated with what are you going to do this weekend and tell me how is your semester going until now?
Love and tea, Daniela.
