English Language Challenge?

English has never been too difficult for me and I don't know why, I mean, when I was little I had a few problems to understand it, maybe was for the way that my teachers taugh it or because at that time I didn't faund it useful, but now I do.

My favorite kind of music had always been in english, that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy music in spanish because I love it, but that help me to try to learn more about it, I started watching movies on their original language, videos of english speakers without any kind uf subtitle trying to understand what they were saying, that is a little difficult because they have differents accents but its funny to know that even for them it is difficult to understand each other and maybe that´s why for me it is more easy to read things in english than listen to it, write it is easy too but here and there I made a few mistakes as always. I need to improve on that and in talking/pronunciation too, but it is hard when you  don't have anyone around to help you, maybe I could ask for help to my friend who is a English teacher but that is complicated too, with all this about the quarantine and the pandemic plus the signal on my house that to do video calls or to attend to classes is very bad and makes everything more complicated and makes me angry just to think about it so lets keep going.

This days I had been using a lot my english's knowledge and skills because this week was the #10 anniversary of one of my favorite bands and the members only post in english so I have to try and keep up with them, on the other hand I also read a lot in english and even if its very embarrassing for me to admit, I usually fake interviews with myself .

To improve my skills I could keep doing what I am doing also find someone to help me on writing and in be less nervous talking in english, to trust more on my own knowledge .

I think that english it is very important in this days but also are the rest of the languages, we should not forget about our different national languages as mapuzungun.

Changes to my study programme?

Hello everyone! Today I will be talking about the changes that I would like to make on my study programme, but first I'm going to clarify that to me its very difficult to go deep on it because when I chose Psychology as a career I instantly accepted the subjects that I'll be studying for the next five or more years... So make a change on that -for me- its a big deal but don't worry, I will try to do my best.

I am just a second year so its impossible everyone to know everything about how the whole programme really is, I know that I am part of the last generation having this programme and having a new one its the proof that this have a few problems on it. First, we had subjects that were not really related to the career so I would take them out and in those place I will put require courses and subjects that will help the students to write, to express themselfs and search information, subjects that will help them on their education and future. As for the co-curricular activities I dont have any problem because I dont have a job and when I need to do other thing I always find a time to do it so, that doesn't bother me. There are times when the workload its very difficult to deal with in special at the end of semester when you have to study for a test while doing works for another subjects and triying to have your head on both things.

 The infrastructure of the campus its good, I mean its not for another world but in summertime you will find a cold place to sit if you look for it and even if we are very tight in the classroom there isn't a real problem, I know some people who have to deal with a pillar that blocks the view inside the classroom so I'm fine with the structure.

I went to the computer lab like two times and that went good, they worked fine but  I did't have the oportunity to visit the other labs that I know the faculty have and that its a little sad. So to that, I would add a subject taught in the laboratories on second year to get acquainted with them, make the classes more dynamic for the students and professor as equals, less about a board and more about practice. 

 

The After-Quarantine

What I want to do after this quarentine? That is a very difficult question because in one side I would like to go out and hang out with a lot of people and in the other I would just stay in my house away from  others.

In my family quarantine united us but at the same point separate us. My mom went in march to visit my grandmother to help her and at the date she has not returned, I admit that I miss hers but I know that where she is it's safer than here. Without my mom here - as a family- we had to redistribute the chores again and that was vey boring. 

With my dad and uncle redecorate the house, it was like a episode of Extreme Makeover and in relation to it, we spend a lot of time seeing the tv shows of Home&Health taking ideas from it. I dont really "rediscovered" any other activity couse I didn't have the supplies at home to do anything and that was kinda sad. 

But the worst thing about being in quarantine has to be the online clasess, ugh. It is very difficult to me to concentrate, read the papers and do other things knowing that my neighbours are diying. My WiFi it is not the best and my laptop stopped working about five days, lucky me, I know. 

About the society, I think that SMEs and local markets  will be more appreciated by the people and that this quarantine will be a way to improve its health systems, working hours as well as the relationship with the other, be empathic.

I dont really know if bein optimistic about this whole thing called pandemia its a good or a bad thing, so I choose being pessimistic. In that way I take precautions seriously, stay in my house, wear a mask when I have to go out and defend my personal space of people who don't care about the life of others.

Postgraduate Studies?

Hello everyone! In  this blog I will be talking about my postgraduate studies, a thing that I see very far away but apparently it is not. It seems like yesterday when I trying to choose the career that I want it.

I am just in second year of Psychology and honestly in the situation that we are I don't even know if I will able to finish the career so it is kinda difficult to think about postgraduate studies when I haven't graduate yet. But if the things go in the way that I want them I would like to take a postgrade in Child Psychology or something similar.

A reason of why I would like to take that its because I've always been surrounded by children, whether they were cousins or neighbors, and I think that they are one of the most mistreated part of our society, with just one look at the SENAME you notice that. The children must be taked care for not abandoned.

I would like to learn about child behavior, that subject had always been something very interesting for me cause I see the children like worlds, they can do amazing things that you didn't even think or relate with them. I would like to take the postgrade in Chile cause I can not see me in other country taking classes, for vacations that ok but for living or study... no thanks. I think part time studies will be perfect, with classroom classes to attend cause the "online" modality it is killing me now. 

I don't really know if at the end I will be taking studies on Child Psychology cause maybe other thing may catch my eye in the future, but now it is what I want so...thanks for reading.

My Future Job?

Hello dear readers in today blog I will be talking about my future job. That is a very important topic for me cause I used to be so focus on the future that I usually forgot to live my own present. The topic being almost the center of what I am studying makes kinda easy for me to talk about it now but if I would have had to talk about it two or three years ago I would be speechless cause honestly at that time i didn't have any idea.

My future job -hopefully- its be a Psychologist and that is why I am studying Psychology, I would like to do this cause certain circumstances in my life made me realize that a psichologist can help to save the life of a person and I would like to be capable of that in a future. 

To be a Psichologist you need to be good listener and empatic with other people, be able to understand what the other are trying to say, need to have knowledge on the subject and motivation to help others and keep learning about some importants things that will came in the way. About the rewards that I would like to have in this job  its the satisfaction in help others to keep living their lives the best they can and know that I am doing something honest and valuable for others. I dont know if I will be working as a Psichologist for the rest of my life cause maybe other thing may catch my eye but I know that I will enjoy the time as a Psichologist and that I will save the experience in my heart.

 

A Remarkable Film that I Remember

Hi, in this blog I will be talking about cinema and of one remarkable film that I remember, if you want to know about it keep reading.

 I think Cinema is amazing cause we can learn from it and have a good time. Cinema had always been a important part of my life cause I had created a lot of good memories in relation to it, since watch the Barbie's movies like a hundred of times with my grandmum on the sofa or stay up late at night with my sister doing a marathon of  all the movies of The Lord of the Rings in extended version till my eyes were all shiny and my head hurts. I really appreciate that times.

We end the marathon looking like this: 

A remarkable film that I remember ? Definitely it have to be The Breakfast Club, this is one of my favorite movies of all times and I enjoy everytime that I see it cause its such a good film. If it is on the tv I stop every thing that I am doing just to sit in front the tv to watch it and dont get up till is finished, my dad always tell me to stop doing that but I can´t.

The Movie was relased on 1985 and its about 5 students on the 80' that end up in detention for different reasons. This young people have different relations with their families and economic situations, they struggle with their own problems judging the others when they don't even know each other by nothing but their names and social status in the school. In the movie they have to share with the others and even when its hard they talk about themselves and open to each other. This movie its gold to understand other peoples without judging them for being themselves. There was the princess,  the brain, the basket case, the athelete and the criminal, they make the breakfast club, a club created on detention while the principale in charge is asking for a essay  being the topic of it "who they think they are".

I don't know why but this movie always makes me cry and laugh at the same time, if you haven't seen it  ...  What are you waiting for? go

The Best Concert I've Had?

Today I will be talking about the best concert i've had, which it's something very difficult for me to choose because i had gone to a few of them and every single one have a special place on my heart.

Between the RBD concert that i went when I was like 5 years old and the one of Niall Horan in July of 2018 I have to choose the concert of Ed Sheeran in May 16, 2017 on the Movistar Arena, Santiago, Chile.

The difference between this concert and the others it's that in this one I had the oportunity to go with my best friend and that is why I choose it.

Edward Sheeran or best know like Ed Sheeran, is an a ginger singer/ songwriter born in the UK. He plays a lot of instruments like guitar, piano and violin between others and have an a amazing voice, he is on the top 100 richest singers in the world, has won a lot of awards and have a cameo on famous tv shows like Games of Thrones and The Simpsons.

The concert was something magical because there were a lot of people singing along chanting the songs, Ed was alone on the stage just with his guitar and a pedalboard, it was literal a showman. The lights of the stage and the screen on the back of Ed were always matching with the beat of the songs adding a kinf of "feeling" to the place.

Everything was so amazing, even the 13 hours of wait that we had with other people that we didnt even know but we trust because they were in the same situation as us, on the waiting line we laughed, talked about ourselves, joked and shared food with them, it felt like they were already my friends.

 

One of the best memories that I have about that concert was when the doors were almost open and the food started flying cause it wasn't alowed inside, I saw chocolates, cookies, snacks and even yogurts flew above my head, it was really funny.
