Last Post :'(

Hello everyone! Today is my last post and I'm happy because we're ending our english course, but I'm sad at the same time because we are not having this "english talking class" anymore. I think this is the best concept to describe our english class, and in my opinion it is the best way to learn english. 

Well, we are almost ending this year and I think it's time to make a summary of good and bad about this year.

First bad things L, this has been the most stressing  year of my life, because of courseload  I felt anxious the most of the time, but I know  that all this tension is for a good reason, and I'm doing something that makes me happy, so is worth it. I don’t have a long list of bad things in my life; I try not to think about it.

And now...GOOD THINGS! Even I was stressed almost all the time I'm proud of myself, because now I know that I can handle with what means being at university, okay I cried a lot, I kicked and screamed everyday but here I am passing grade (nothing is certain yet hahaha but I’ve been good with my marks J ), my relatives are good,  I have the support of my family in everything I do, I’m in love with my boyfriend, he is wonderful and our relationship  is getting better everyday. I met a lot of amazing people in here, and I can share with them my highs and lows.

I still have to pass all the subjects, and the year isn’t over yet, but I can certain say that it was a good year, I only have good things to say abbot university, classmates and teachers, this first year of university, and this english course has been a great experience so far.

How green are you?

Nowadays because of the current situation about climatic change it is necessary to start thinking about how to help the environment, I think we all should start thinking green. Even I’m not part of eco- organizations (because I don’t have enough time), I always try to make little things everyday to reduce my carbon footprint, such as using compact fluorescent light bulbs at home, turning the faucet off when brushing or shaving, or walking instead of going by car, for example I go everyday to university by coach and subway because it is far from my house, I don’t use my own car that’s good, but it could be much better if I could go by bike or legs to university. I think it is important to awareness people about this topic, I guess  people usually know about this topic by the news or the mass media, but in my opinion in school this  should be a central topic of study, because the kids are going to be the responsible of our planet in a few years. It is important to recycle, we all know that, and that’s why in my house we try to never use plastic bags and if we have one we reuse it.  I think society, specifically Santiago from the government to every single person should start being eco-friendly, politicians should think about how their decisions impact the environment to make Santiago a better place to live. If I had the opportunity I’d do a recycle centre in my neighborhood. 

MY WORST NIGHTMARE

Hello everyone, today I’m going to talk about my worst nightmare. I know this topic is extensive, and it can has different interpretations but I chose to talk about my worst nightmare making reference to dreams at night. When I usually have a nightmare it is related with dead, I think this is one of my biggest fears and that’s why I associate it with bad things.

Ok, this is how my nightmare was…

One day like any other, I was in my bedroom and my mom called me and told me if I’d like to go to the mall to buy some staff and clothes, of course I accepted the invitation. My mom, my sister my dad and I, got into the car and my dad drove to the centre of Melipilla but when we were in the corner of the central square something extremely rare happened; a strong man right in front of our car was fighting with a guy of my school, who had a black eye because of a punch, we treated to run away of that situation and my dad drove around the square. For some unknown reason to me, my dad came back to the same corner and the strong man in that moment was punching  the guy in the face leaving him knock out. After this, everything happened so fast to me, that I can only remember a sequence of facts: the man suddenly ran to our car with a bat of iron in his hands, he opened up the door of the driver, he took my dad by the neck and then I saw the bat going at top speed against my dad’s head… In that moment I woke up thinking my dad was dead, IT WAS TERRIBLE!  I was extremely anxious and sad, Fortunately it was just a rare and bad dream.

My Future Job

Hello everyone, today I’m going to write about my future job. I chose to study dentistry because in my future job as a dentist I will have the opportunity to choose my working day and I can work regardless of any hospital or any health organization, I can be my own boss.

 In the future I want to work half of my day as a dentist and the other half of my day I want to continue studying a specialization which is Legal and Forensic Dentistry, it is a very singular specialty in odontology and there’ re not many people in this area. So I would like to study this specialty and after that start working at PDI the other half of my day, I think this work would be very interesting and exciting, but difficult at the same time, because I would have to recognize dead people.

Besides all those academic things, I will still being a woman, and in a future I want to be a mom, so I would like to work part-time to have time to spend with my children. I don’t care if I travel or not with my work, I would prefer to travel with my family instead. I think the most important for me is working to live and not living to work.

Things I want to do before I die

There are 3 things a want to do before I die, the first is to finish a career, the second is to travel and made at least a big trip outside of the continent, and the last one is to get married and have children, maybe not in that order but I have to do those three things, those are my objectives in life.

Now I'm studying dentistry and I'm happy with my decision, studying a career for me is not just to finish it, is to live all the opportunities that university gives you, for example I would like to study a semester abroad or make my own investigation and present it in other universities.

After that, I would like to have a family,it is not necessary for me to get married but I want to be happy with a man who loves me, and I want to have children, I don’t know exactly how many right now, but I have time to think about it hahaha.

The last thing I want to do before I get old is to take advantage of my youth and travel as much I can, I want to visit all the south of Chile, because I have already visited the north; I also want to travel through Latin-America searching for important and traditional places and I want to visit at least one country outside of America, it might be in Europe or Asia.  I think that I don't ask too much and I hope I would accomplish my objectives in life.

The best concert I've had

The best concert I've ever had was seeing the "Jonas Brothers", in November of 2010. The "Jonas brothers" are  my favourite band since I have 12 and I have seen them play live five times, the last in 2013. The concert that they played in Chile at november of 2010 was special to me because I was the winner of a contest so I had the possibility to assist to a "soundcheck party", it was a little performance of 4 four songs just for two hundred people and  the audience was able to ask questions to the artists ...AND I WAS THERE!. That day  me and my friends left the school early, they went to the concert too. I was really excited and when the "soundcheck party" started I was like crazy I screamed all the performance and at the end Kevin Jonas, the guitarist of the band threw to the crowd his guitar pick and this fell right in front of me :) , now I can’t believe it. After that I enjoyed the concert with my friends, we sang every single song and during the show the fans sang “Happy Birthday” to Kevin, it was wonderful.

 For me it was a magic day to remember.(207)

Hey you! Visit Chile!

In Chile there are many places we can be proud of, and of course we can recommend those to tourists … we even have the 8^th Wonder of the World:  national park “Torres del Paine”.  In the north of Chile we can find in Parinacota’s region the Chungará lake wich is highest lake in the world, then further in the south we have the Atacama desert, here you can find an infinity of interesting places to visit  such as  San Pedro de Atacama, Tatios’s gazers,  petroglyphs of ancient cultures in different places dispersed through the desert. In the center of Chile you can visit the capital: Santiago, I don’t recommend you this because I have spent most of my time here and for me it’s boring, but you have to visit it. In the south you can find a different kind of beauty in the landscapes, there you can visit many places with varied attractions: Chiloe’s Island, Puerto Varas and if you want to go even more to the south you can visit Patagonia and “Torres del Paine”. Another place of Chile that you MUST visit is Easter Island, the navel of the world there you can see moais sculptures of the Rapa Nui culture. Every place in Chile has a special charming, there’s a lot of green because of woodland. So now you know, if you are choosing your next destiny, chose Chile. (234)
