Post XIX: "Have I had a good first semester?"

Hello everyone! Today I am going to talk about this first semester.

I am going to start talking about the subject that I liked more this first half of the year. The subject that I enjoyed more this semester was a Monographic about the various ways of thinking the body throught art history. It was pretty interesting study the body and the different ways of representation. Each period had their own way to do that. For example, greeks and egyptians were completely opposite to each other. The first ones wanted to put harmony, beauty and movement in their sculptures, they did not care if the sculpture's pose was impossible to do for a human been if was harmonic, but second ones wanted to paint eternity in all their walls, because they believed in eternity; that can explain their hieratic painings and sculptures, they did not want movement or beauty because that can end easily, they wanted to capture eternity with their art. Now we are studying contemporaty art and is very interesting.

And generally talking... It was quite difficult, I have seven subjects on going and I can not say "Yes, it was easy", but at least I can say that I am going well despite having a lot of courses at the same time. It was a good start, I tried to study a lot to not have problems at the end of the semester. And I am proud of that now, because we had a very long strike, around two months. Nevertheless, I read a lot and did my essays, tests, and other stuff in time and had acceptable marks, so I did not have to worry now, because I can approve everything without pain. It was last year, we had a strike too, and I was coursing english 4 aswell. I could not pass english last semester because the strike was too long so I am glad to be avialable to finally finish this course...

See you!
