English Challenge!

Well, this semester I learned a lot of things… apart from the names of some of the classmates. The class was fun and let me practice this language of another way. For example, I never wrote an English Blog, just comments in some places and that was it all, and I never film a video to YouTube (and I will not do that again, I will delete all the videos because I scared that someday that see the daylight). I see this experience as something new, interesting and exciting! 

I think about the use of blogs and I think that is a useful tool, some people talks English so good, but then, they write in English and it’s a chaos! And exist the opposite of them, this class works well with the two kinds of people. The Blog’s use is a good way to improve our skills, like redaction, grammar and let the imagination fly, I learned about some topics that I didn’t know and let us learn about our classmates and their point of view. 

My Achilles heel is talk in public. My tongue gets entangled and I start to talk wrong, so, if I have something good to say, I say it wrong and it’s embarrassing. I think that I would make a pen pal to talk on the Internet, somebody in a chat and there I could practice and improve my English communication.

I use English all the days, when I try to understand the meaning of the English songs, and sometimes when I can’t wait to the translate of a chapter of a good book, I read it in English, when I need a recipe, when I want to write something that nobody has to read… 

English is important to me is useful and is beautiful. I wish could talk it fluently someday, and I think that day is closer than I think.

Thinking in the change.

Some things in our career can get better, for example, to include some classes that we can see the body’s reaction with some medicines, but not in the third or fourth year. Another thing could be that the teachers explain why we need that class because the people don’t care about it until it’s too late if we know the necessity, that could be our inspiration and we would more interested.

Our faculty, compared with another University’s faculties, has a lot of things to change: the library, the laboratory, even the picnic tables (because these look like that). Our library is too small and you can’t study quietly, some books that we really need aren’t here or just it’s one, how can you have only a book for more than two hundred students with this class jointly? That we must change; our laboratory has things too old, we can work with that, however, if you break something (an essay tube, a flask, a test tube), it’ll be a problem, because they have enough materials for every table, but not to change it. Last time, I needed the flask, but the person who uses the same box that I, leave it dirty and the stains didn’t go out. I couldn’t change it.

Well, talking about technology, our faculty is far yet. The machines are too expensive, and, before the use, the teachers and the technics must learn how it works, so, it’s a little far yet, it’s not impossible, but that changes need time. Maybe it wouldn’t be today or tomorrow, but, maybe someday.

I think...

Well sometimes (okay, all the time) exist themes that make disagreements between the people, and it’s at that moment when the persons ask you “what do you think about that?”, “are you agree?”, “why do you think that?”, but nobody can say you “your opinion is not important” (freedom of opinion!) here I’ll get my opinion about some topics, let’s start!

What is your opinion about having an exotic pet at home?

 I think that is not so good have pets from other places in the world. Yes, some of them are too cute and too nice, but do you think about their habitats? Some of them doesn’t bear in captivity, some of them were captured.  We have there for many reasons, but we must think about that little (o big) friend, is it really happy there? is it comfort there?

  What is your opinion about recycling?

I believe that it’s a good idea, we must learn about the planet and the damage that we make it. A lot of things are recyclable and if we agree with another Recycling policy, we could stop using the raw material and just make the same things from the same things, why not? Even we could improve a lot of processes, reducing the CO2 footprint.

What is your opinion about climate change?

I strongly believe that it’s our fault. We are changing the world with our buildings, our pollution, our “progress”. A lot of time, we just think about us and not in another life forms in this planet, some people would say “but the pollution has ever existed”, but that pollution, from the Earth, of nature, doesn’t break the Ozone layer. Like we make the damage, we must resolve that.

What is your opinion about violence on television?

I think that it could improve, because “the violence only breeds more violence”. I can say that for my little cousin, He is a bit violent due to the video games and some series that he should not see, but that is not possible to avoid providing that they are of public television. Although some people say “but that’s the real life”, we should take care for the childhood.
 

Post graduate Studies.

Thinking about the future, I want to keep studying and improving when I get my professional degree in Pharmacist, because in the employment the people ever see to the advanced and flexible professional, who knows about new technologic and new practices. I want to improve to help the people efficiently.

I would like to take a doctorate in Pharmacology, because I’m so interested in the studies that the doctorate can leave me to do. I would like to study this in another country, like UK, that can let me take more experience than here in Chile. I think that I’ll take the “blended system” to study, sounds interesting and I’m a curious person. Talking seriously, I think that I can to keep learning through the time, since someday all my actual knowledge could be obsolete and I would not what to do, (okay, that’s exaggerated). The science world is not a static world, is a dynamic world, sometimes getting fast, and sometimes getting slow. Who knows? Maybe in the future, I would take another doctorate, or I would not take a doctorate (it sounds a little expensive) my mind could change in this five and a half years (even that could change, maybe I will take the professional degree in seven years!), but now I must to be focused in the present, improving now to improve in the future.

My future job.

It’s difficult to me answer “what’s your dreamed job?” In my life I wanted to me a chemist, a teacher, a translator/interpreter in foreign languages, a photographer, a doctor, an engineer, a biotechnologist…

Well, it’s a long list.

But the truth is, I want to be a chemist. That I wanted to be in my childhood when I think about the colors of the reactions, does it sounds too crazy?

Maybe you are thinking “but what are you studying pharmacy? Why do you change the career and go to chemist?” Well, I like too much the idea of work in something that will help the people to have a better life quality, to improve and, if I couldn’t be a doctor or a biotechnologist, now I would be a pharmacist. I know that I’m not too much smart and this major is not easy, but I’m ingenue and dreamer, yet. I think I can do it and I will do it. The little girl who wants to mix pipes with liquids of colors grow up, now, she wants to make the difference.

I want work in a laboratory, I’m not too sure where specifically, but in cosmetology and outdoor, nope.

I would like to travel a lot in my job, for pleasure if my salary allows it, for experience, for a lot of things. I want a well-paid job, because I would like to do a lot of things: give my mom the things that she would need, I want help her in my future; I want travel a lot and I want have stories to tell to my family in the future.

Music in my life

 Music is an important part of me, it’s my partner in the day at day, even if it’s alarm’s melody (I really hate it, my life has a lot of music even when I was unborn. Mom’s the responsible, she putted music to us ever so, it’s a little impossible to us (my brother, sister and I) be in a silence place for long time. The music says me “you’re in home”, because in my house the radio doesn’t stop in all the day, and when I’m in a stranger place without music, I really feel out my comfort zone.

It’s a little difficult to me say with clarity what’s my favorite kind of music, because I don’t know, usually I put Spotify in “Daily mix” and let it be, but thinking well, I like too much the pop-rock, emo-inflected (I know, it’s depressive), punk-rock, alt-rock, latin rock, a bit of J-pop and even I like vallenato.

I like a lot the guitar and the piano, I used to practice guitar, but I didn’t learn perfectly, some songs are in my mind yet, but I’m a little oxidized to do it with simplicity. In high school I tried to practice piano (well, I had to do it, the music test was needing that I had a basic knowledge of piano), but I just learned some scales with the right hand. My left hand is a bit more stubborn.

My favorite singer or band… well, I have four: Ed Sheeran, Cin3ma (it’s well written), Panic! At the disco and Sleeping at last.

When I was a child, I used to like pop and reggaeton… It is a dark stage in my musical tastes, but I was a child and at that time the reggaeton was softer and with less contained for adults.

A part of the movies that seriously manages me to put the hair of top and to increase my emotion is the soundtrack, it really complete the atmosphere. I remember “Secrets” of One Republic, that was the principal song in “The Sorcerer's Apprentice”, I remember that because I was a lot of time searching that song; "Mamma mía!" is another movie that I like and I remember it for the song "The winner takes it all", and the last movie that I remember is "City of Angels" with it song "Iris" of Goo goo dolls. 

And well, that all. I recommend you watch this movies, because the music is fantastic.

My favourite book and film

 Well, talk about books and films is a seriously topic to me, because I really love films and books! The feelings inside a book, the expectations around the flims, everything are exciting! I would talk hours and hours about my favorite books and films, but it's not possible now.

It's a difficult decision for me choose one book and one film, but, if you ask me about a book that I really like, I would answer "Kiss an angel".

"Kiss an angel" is a romantic novel about Daisy, a superficial woman (insert cliché here) who must decide between getting married Alex, a unsoul and rude man (and more cliché here), or go to the jail (okay, stop with cliché, now this turns weird). Just for pride, she choose the wedding, but “inside”, she isn’t happy with the idea (I will spoiled you: In the wedding, where she should say “I take you to be my dear husband”, she said “I take you to be my my awful wedded husband”)

Alex is a humorless and deadly handsome man, he doesn’t believe in love and he’s not interested to be a sweet and lovely husband, but, his new wife… Daisy is dreams and pink clouds, she wants to find the love and believe in the “and they lived happily ever after”, the opposite personalities of the main characters do that the history receives a touch of comedy for the situations in those who are wrapped, sometimes you want kill Alex or hug Daisy, maybe you’re thinking “it’s another story of love”, maybe you’re right, but don´t judge a book by its cover.

 

My favourite film… well, it would be “Penelope”, it’s about a girl who live locked her house because she’s curse, she has ears and nose of pork, and the solution is “that someone of the same type loves her as she is”, and well, a lot of things happen: “the prospectuses jump over the window” it’s a good summary of the situation. And the story turns right when “Johnny” (because it’s not his name) who needs money, since he is a bettor who does not know how to win, takes part as future prospectus for Penelope. In summary, he runs away, she runs away... Well, it sounds like more than the same, but, again, don’t judge by the cover.
