"About interesting career-related topics"

Law Psychology
This is an intresting area in Psichology, because alouds us to understand how our carrer is raleted to the way things are one in the Law's world.
With the latest modifications of the punishment law, I could see that the importance that is been given to the victims is, by far, much more than it used to be. I think that is the main reason why I like it so much.
And also because it considerates the accused first as a person, considerating his personal issues, and help the other to see what was going on his mind at the moment that he acted with a behavior that is not alouded.

"Recommended Web sites in my Area"

1. http://www.apa.org/

This is one of the most important Institutions related with the psychology world. The American Psychological Association’s website contains many recent publications on several topics such as clinical psychology, experimental research, etc.

Another very important feature of this website is The Manual of the American Psychological Association, this publication is basically a set of rules and guidelines which are there in order to help and guide another publishers to elaborate their own papers and studies.

2. http://www.freud.org.uk/

This is another important and interesting website ... the idea of the site is the it seem to be Freud's house, but converted into a virtual museum.
You can visit the first floor, where is located the analytic coach of her daughter, Anna. In this website you can find the Landing, in there, are two portraits of Sigmund, one by Ferdinand Schmutzer, and the other by Salvador Dali. In the ground floor are placed the study and library. Also, you can see Freud's desk and his bookshelf. You can even can the garden and the antiquities collection aswell.

Last weekend I went to our little house in the countryside, located in Maria Pinto, with my family. We went there because it was my nefew’s ferewell party, she and her children are going to New Zealand, so we don´t know for how long we will not see them.
It was a really nice day, we cook, eat and laugh a lot.
Two of my sisters in law are graet cookers, so they work all the morning, and it was amazing how great it all turned up.
We took a lot of pictures, all the children play toghether. It was the most perfect day.

my favorite song

My favorite song is: "my way" of Frank Sinatra, because when I was a teenager my friends and I loved it. Then when I meet my husband he gifted me a vynil of Frank Sinatra whith this song and we dancing a lot. Few yers after I study English at the North American Institute and in Laboratory class we listened a lot a sings in English of Sinatra, The Platers, etc. in this times all my kids love Frank Sinatra too, and when we travel by car often listen the compac of Sinatra.

My Way lyrics
And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
"No, oh no not me,
I did it my way".
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!

My personal introduction

My name is Nancy an this is my homework in my English class. I study Psychology in the Universidad de Chile. This is my second career. Between 1977 and 1980 I studied to be a Librarian in the same university, and I worked a lot of year as a librarian in very different places, basically universities and schools.
My family life is very complex, because I have 4 kids and a husband, who is often traveling, because he is a geologist, and his work is out of the city.
I expect that this blog help me to learn and practice my English and to put in contact with other students.
