English~

Image
My experience learning English at the university was really great, I think is because I like the way as we apply our knowledge ( in this language), is dynamic, it is not only sit down, open a book and do the activities in it; we talk to each other, we learn different expressions and new words to complete our vocabulary. I like the use of blogs, because I like the idea of giving my personal opinion in different topics, also, the topics that we have are pretty interesting. The thing that I don’t like, by the way, is that I’m slow writing, so I’m behind on my blogs. I don’t know why, but sometimes it’s really hard for me organise the ideas in my mind, so I need more time to publish a nice blog. I have to write it like 3 times to see if it is fine. I think some aspects of my English that need to be improved are my vocabulary and improvisation, like keep a normal conversation with somebody; I get nervous and I forget the words that I want to say (I forget them in English and Spanis...

Vacations - 2018!

Image
 University it’s about to end and maybe the summer upcoming it’s going to be the best in my life. It would be my first summer as a university student and everyone knows that the better parties are at this time of your life. My first summer travel it would be to La Serena City, it’s kind of a familiar tradition go every year there, because all my mother’s family is there. Then I would go to Elqui, because I LOVE that place.  Last summer was crazy, I went with my friends to KMZ and I never thought it was going to be like that, I danced the whole night till’ me feet gave no more. This summer I want to go there again with my best friend Antonia, by the way she got her driver’s license this year so a great adventure on wheels is waiting for us. Taking advantage of my first destination, it would be really nice if I could visit San Pedro and other touristic landmarks in the north of our country, also I would like to go to the south of Chile (Villarica, Pucón, Puerto Montt). Later...

Drugs

Image
Nowadays, I’m very conscious about what things are actually drugs (alcohol, cigarettes, coffee). I’m really familiar with coffee, I think that is kind of my drug of abuse. Take a shot of coffee it’s always good when I have to be awake. When I hang out with my friends, they usually smoke marihuana while they’re partying or playing FIFA, but I don’t see it like a big deal, they’re grownups and I suppose that they know what they’re doing. They look like stoned and their eyes look like if they were Asians. They also laugh a lot and sometimes when it hits to hard they start to cry. Drugs like marihuana are also medical and brings benefits to the people that use it, like appease issues of schizophrenic people. Socioeconomic situation is also a thing that could make the different between the users and the addicts. Drug addiction it’s a big trouble cause’ it could destroy families and leave the addict in the extreme poverty. After a long term consumption of drug of abuse, the brain asks for mo...

Post Graduate Studies

Image
Although, nowadays, I’m just starting my university life and I’m conscious that there is still a long way to go. It is better to have a notion of the whole thing now. I would like to be prepared for the future and specialize myself in a post graduated course in pharmacology. One of the main reasons is my interest in the technological development and its impact on people’s health, specifically in the field of the development of new medicines that are less invasive in their effects and supply for the patients. For example, I would investigate the mechanisms of action of the drugs and I would find a way to inhibit its effect after an overdose, avoiding that taking an excessive amount of pills keeps being an alternative for commit suicide. Ideally, my interest is to remain in the country and be able to continue my studies at this university to improve the quality of life of Chilean people. Just only after that, I could consider the idea to realize some course abroad. My first option, after...
