The Story of a Picture

Imagen
I took this picture this year. I was on a beach in Talcahuano working on my university thesis. Although it may not seem like it, I took it at night. There was a lot of fog and it was cold. I stood still for several seconds to make it look brighter. This days, I had many personal problems ... my grandmother was very sick and nothing was going well for me. I was tired of my job and I just wanted to rest. I was not happy with what I was doing. I felt like in that place, on the beach, without much light, without much heat, without much to look at, everything was boring. But leaving Santiago gave me peace. This photo is important to me because it represented the longing I had at that time. I wanted to be calm, in peace. And that photo was given to me, knowing that this was not the real landscape.

Juan Herrera

In this post i'm going to talk about of character "Juan Herrera", of the "The 80s" Serie. This tv serie was very popular in Chile and was about the problems of a middle-class family in those years. Juan Herrera is the protagonist of this story. He's a typical family guy of those years: traditional, strict, bossy, etc. But he's a good father. The main conflicts in the plot, are because he believes that he should be the protector of his house. For example, he did not allow his wife to work after he being laid off. Viewers can watch that many family problems are because of the man's pride of the protagonist. They do not have anything to eat, they get into debt and cause them to argue constantly. Juan Herrera has a conflict with himself. He is wrong because he believes that because he is a man, he must be the provider of the family. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NIS5BsywKY
