Hi, welcome to my blog!
This is a new challenge for me.

A few days ago I arrived from Atlanta, Georgia. I went there for an exchange program with some classmates. I enjoyed this trip because we had fun, it was a good experience for me; it was very useful for my personal knowledge and to know a different culture.
            We traveled by plane, the fastest way. It would not have been possible in other transportation. Thanks to science, we know that the speed of a plane is represented by two quantities, the module, that indicates how fast it moves, and the direction that indicates where it moves to.
I also traveled by car from Mar del Plata to Buenos Aires, it took approximately four hours traveling for 400 kilometers. The plane spent nine hours for 8,054 kilometers.
I know that airplanes causes many problems like environmental pollution, and noises but, the benefits are greater. The trip is faster, more comfortable and safety.
Scientists raffled many obstacles to get the level of comfort that today an aircraft provides.
Imagine that in a few hours, I arrived to another country. I was with people from other nationalities and mores. I was very happy to know a school as Westminster and to know how they learn in a different school. This trip has been a challenge for me as a person and also, as a student.
Between the activities we did, we went to Coca Cola factory, CNN Studios, we visited Atlanta´s downtown and The Swam house. It was used during the filming of the movies The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay.
               Last summer, I read Mockingjay. I could not stop reading it. It was very entertaining and interesting! The book was excellent, I recommend it! You can buy it in the best book stores! The writer is Suzanne Collins, she reached the list of selling books worldwide, especially in the United States. (http://www.thehungergames.co.uk/).
In this amazing books, she describes in detail the problems and the obstacles faced by the main character, a young girl with whom I feel identify for her tenacity and fight to achieve a better world. And the positive results she got, despite the obstacles.
Of course that  been in one of the places where the film took place, made me feel the challenge of going to see it to the cinema as soon as possible!
In literature, the genre is science fiction. The novel is divided into “The hunger games”, followed by “Catching Fire” and “Mockingjay”, but in films the last book is divided into two parts, Mockingjay Part I and Part II.
The film industry has grown considerably. The challenge of recreating books is a very hard and important work for a cinema enterprise. The economic problems and the factors of production are many. They have to optimize resources and make the division of labour, they must employ actors, director, the people in charge of the wardrobe, specialized sound engineers, illuminators, etc. They need specialized machinery, it all has a high cost but, it is a big challenge to make the final result a success and be able to sell it all over the world, considering that the entrepreneurs take big risks.
            As changing times arrive, my next challenge will be to visit Pope Francisco! To get closer to Jesus, church offers us learn to forgive and be more tolerant.
            Everyone must decide which challenges want to achieve. You decide where you want to go.




Don´t forget to visit MAR Museum in Mar del Plata with its art gallery! I went yesterday and I spend a great time there!! (http://museomar.gob.ar/)
