A photo I like.

I have several favorite photos. In my personal life I like some of my childhood photos. Also I like some pictures of my adult life. One of these is that my girlfriend took me into the Valdivia coast, a couple of years ago.
In the photo show up looking at the horizon, along with various wild flowers. Observe the Pacific Ocean and look ask me about my future.
The photo I like it because it represents the constant concern about what I do, so I can do.
The picture took me my girlfriend a sunny day, when we are walking in the beach. We are sitting along a one national historic legacy: The Niebla`s Fort.
Past and present miting an one instant. The question is ¿Wich is the future? My future, our future. An existencial question that sometimes is many dificult answered.
The photo I like because is very simbolic. Simbolize my life, my questions, my emotional concern.

TV serials: Information, entertainment and ideological impact. What you choose?

There is a lot of types of TV serials. It is possible to classify them according to their different purposes or functions. First are those designed to entertain, second are those intended to inform and / or teach. Thirdly, can detect the tv serial bound to have an ideological impact. But many times or generally, these purposes or functions are mixed in the tv serial.
For example, latin american soap operas have an explicit purpose of entertaining first. But as the doctor in sociology Martin Barbero, soap operas also have a character of cultural transformation and political concern. Configuring an ideological impact through them.
A lot of people like TV serials because they are a quick alternative of entertainment and information. But other people do not like them because they are aware of the ideological character implicit in many TV serials.
I have no favorite TV serial, but a kind of serial that I like: the animal world documentary serial. An example of these is "the family of meerkats”, which has several very entertaining and informative chapters about the lifestyle of these animals.
I honestly do not see TV serial very often, because I have little free time. I have many things to study.
See you.
