Bumbumbummmm!

Hello classmates and professor:

                                                                                                 

Today I am going to talk about something very polemic: I will discuss the case of the bomb (chan chan). If you do not know about this event, this Monday (8th) a homemade bomb exploded in the subway, at Tobalaba station to be specific, destroying part of the place and leaving many innocent people injured. The recurring question throughout is: Who planted the bomb?                                                                                                                                                                                                      Ok, I have to be honest: I really don’t know about this theme. I readed a lot and on Internet and papers and I discuss it with my friends, family and nearby but I am too incredulous and skeptical about theories that have emerged.

The culprit was an anarchist group? A fraction of the student movement was? I do not think so. But at the same time it seems strange to think that the government was responsible for creating this atmosphere of panic and the political instability reflected in public opinion, that not suit them.

Other reviews claim that ultra right-wing groups were to blame for the explosion because they are looking mistrust the reforms that are taking place in the country today, reforms that contradict their political objectives.                                                                                                                    This seems a bit iffy; I think it is a too risky strategy, although it has already happened before, in the years before the coup was a frequent practice of the right-wing to destabilize the government of Allende.

Post N°2 FRONTERA:

Hello boys and girls:

Today, like every Friday I'm forced (yes, forced) to publish a post (just kidding). 

This time, the theme of my article is about a concert, or rather musical festival: Frontera

I went to this festival on November 9th last year. The show was held in “Club Hípico”, that is localted near “Parque O’Higgins” metro station.

The most important bands invited were Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Cultura Profética, Chico Trujillo and Jorge Gonzalez. The first is an Argentinean band, that plays ska and rock music. The secod band is originally from Puerto Rico and plays reggae. The others are Chilean bands and I’m sure you know them.

In the festival there were three stages, and each had a band playing, then there was always somewhere to go without getting bored. It was amazing, the place was full of people, singers and musicians!  We had fun during the day but at night we were very hungry and there was a terrible cold that prevented us from enjoying the latest concerts.

I went to the Frontera Festival with a dear cousin, Fernanda (who was with a friend) and two great friends, Martín and Ricardo. Oh, and I was also at the festival my boyfriend and other acquaintances.
