Intelligence

Today I’m going to talk about intelligence. 

I think the intelligence is the capacity to understand and appreciate what is around us, it’s the capacity to resolve different kinds of problems that could have been in front of us.

Nobody born intelligent, it’s the accumulation of contents you learn a long your life. It’s necessary the experience, and the socializing because we can’t be alone, and we must create relationships, that way we can learn from each other. I think it is very important to be in contact with people from everywhere: from different ways of thinking, different religious, races, culture, social class, or political position.

The intelligence can be constructed. That’s why the education it’s very important. Through the education, and to be expose to the world you can develop your intelligence. For example a lot of people had told me that I have the natural manual ability, but I think that is a capacity that I had developed, because I saw people doing hand works all my life and they incentive and stimulate me . I’m not agree about catalogue a person with different kinds of intelligence because I think everybody can learn about any kind of subject.

Hello Bloggers!!!

Hi, my name is Josefina Langevin, I am twenty two years old. I’m studying Visual Art at the University of Chile; I cannot believe that this is my fourth year, time flies! At the beginning I wasn’t sure about study this career, but now I’m very happy. When I finish this career I would like to study architecture. I think both careers can be complement, and I could have a more complete vision about it. 

Family Photo!

Not to long ago, I founded at home, in a big trunk, a box with hundreds of old pictures of my family. One of my favorite is the one that I attach.  That you can see, it is very old, since 1958, it is in black and white.

In the photo you can see my grandparents Luis Adolfo and Liliana when they were dating. At that time my grandmother was 17 years old, and my grandfather was 24 years old. Such a beautiful couple!

He was very proud taking her in his first car. Two years later, since that photo, they got married. They went to lived in a farm, and they had 3 children, the second one was my mom.

Over the years I have very good memories of my grandmother. But of my grandfather I have only photos because he passed away before I was born. 

Photo Camera

I think my favorite piece of technology is the photo camera. I think this piece is wonderful, because memory is fragile and this way you can freeze moments. My first camera was a Fisher Price, perfect shot 110, my grandmother gave it to me when I was about six years old. It was like a toy, but I could take real photos with it. When I see my old pictures I had taken, I can remember when I was little, I can notice how different was the way I saw when I was child: the frame I choose was very different, that one I choose now. When you are getting older, especially when you study art, your eyes learn to see like the “correct form of view” , and you lose the instinct way.

Now I have a new camera, I take it with me all the time. It’s very important to be with it, because in any moment you can see a great image or something that gives you an amazing idea, and you can catch it.

Friends

I’m going to talk about my best friend Valentina. I know her in Rancagua at kindergarten, when I was about five years old. We are friends since that day. Everyone at school thought that we were sisters, because we looked, talked and laugh very similar. I love to pass time with her because you can have very good moments; she is very funny and is always happy. We have a lot of anecdotes, I remember when we goes to the farm on vacations, we were playing cards with her cousins and suddenly a bat appears, I got crazy and the rest of the people, put the bat inside of a jar! We have passed good and bad moments, at six grade, I moved to another school in Santiago, it was very hard for us. We try to talked a lot, but it was difficult. After all, we are always in touch. Now we have an unusual relationship, because we don’t talk very often but I know that when I have a problem, I can trust in her. We learned to live without the other. We don't need to be near to be friends, I think that’s because we know and trust each other too much.
