Blog 6: English Language Challenges

Image
 Hello :D I guess this is the end. About my experience learning English at university, I can say that kept me very active, very awake, like never losing time. I can emphasize the funny way that speaking in English with classmates became to me, since speaking is the least thing that I do in this language. Along the conversations I could notice how my brain looked for words from all my vocabulary in a fast way. Also, I liked to see videos of celebrities for the listening activities, because I realized that I understand more English that I though and mades me to have more confidence. The texts that we read are not forgotten, and the reason why is that, as the blog of the teacher said, the social and politic content does not only amplied my vocabulary, but taught me new relevant information. They weren't like the typical stories that you will forget. The use of blogs was the strong part of the program for me, because was the exercise that took me the most amount of time and the on...

Blog 5: Changes to my study program

Image
Hi! I hope you are all well. Today I'm going to talk about some changes that I would do to the study program of my career. First of all, I can say that I'm satisfied with the subjects of the curriculum. I have enjoyed the subjects until now, and even though I am just beginning with the psychology, I consider that the ones in my following years are accurate, it just becomes a little complicated when it's about some administrations. Related to this, I think that after the pandemia the organization between face-to-face and online classes got chaotic. I mean, in some subjects the content is taught with videos and uses the class for questions, other ones do the class with the content as we normally used to do, but with the technology that became active with the quarantine, it started uploading more content that will be impossible to study in a complete and right way (texts, documentaries, videos, complementary information), so it tends to overwhelm. Instead, I believe that the o...

Blog 4: Post-Graduate Studies

Image
Hello there! Here we are again. The subject of today is if I would like to study a postgraduate degree. So, about that, some years ago I have got the idea in mind of taking a Ph.D. (like I said in the previous blog too :D), but at the moment I haven't been informed about how it works and neither if I'm into it completely yet, but I'm in love with the light knowledge that I have right now. I would like it because I want to go deeper in psychology, and I have seen some orientations of the career here at the University of Chile so I'm very interested. On the other hand, I also have thought to study a certification to get a specialization in my career and improve my tools to give the best of my performance in the future labor world. I'm into clinical psychology and also I like the social constructions in which we are involved, so I would go with subjects related, and maybe make some investigations. With regard to the location, I have more inclination about staying in Ch...

Blog 3: My dream job

Image
Hello everyone 💕 welcome to my blog 3! Today I'm going to talk about my dream job, which is to work as a clinical psychologist :D. I imagine myself being a good one, I mean, I am trying hard to be a good one, because I would like to make a positive change in the area of mental health in Chile, but what I mainly wish is to make my sessions a comfortable place. In addition, what I really love about this profession is being helpful in the life of people in the search for their well-being, I think that the connection that is built between the patient and the psychologist in the therapy space and in the length of the process is something amazing. So I want to serve in the construction of new ideas that maybe could change a complete world, their own world developed by themselves. Also, on the other hand, it is needed to be aware that is never a perfect development in an ideal way towards progress, but I think that that is the point of this role, the risk of living and working in ourselv...

Blog 2: The best concert ever

Image
Hellooo, I wish you're doing well. This time I'm going to talk about the best concert ever, a subject which I don't have a lot of options really lol. The concert was on December 5th last year and it was in Calama, my home city. Was in a kind of cultural feria that was organized, it had a lot of pymes selling stuff and artists and celebrities came too. The star of the night was Álvaro López, he used to be the vocalist from the Chilean band called Los Bunkers. Some of the most popular hits that he sings are "Quién fuera" (which is a cover of Silvio Rodríguez's song), "Bailando solo" and "Llueve sobre la ciudad". Currently is in a new group known as Lopez. I listen to him since many years ago, I'm not such a big fan but the songs are beautiful and make me feel a longing. The best part that makes this show memorable was the atmosphere calm and personal that was there. Also I sang a lot, and was a cute space because I went with my friends :)...

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit

Image
Hiii, welcome to my blog 1 💟 I hope that you all do well in this activity and hello teacher -v- I'll start. I would like to go to Japan, and I guess that the main reason is obvious but I'm going to say it anyway: anime influence. Hahaha just kidding, well... kind of. Mainly I would like to go there because of the culture, and rather than have some project in mind that I have to do for sure or to be productive, I just want to get fascinated by the typical aesthetic futuristic and a little bit "otaku" of this country, like a vacation trip.  Therefore, the specific city I would like to visit is Tokyo. As you can see, I don't know a lot about the country, buuut I will when I get obsessed with the idea in the future and start planning everything, I promise haha. So, among the places I remember that I'm interested in are these pretties cat cafes that are very popular; the Sega Arcade, which I just find out that all these centers closed :( it took me by surprise, so...
