English language challenges

My experience learning English in the university was very enriching, because thanks to English 3 and 4, now that i exercise my English, i'm able to read book in English all of it, and that was hard for me the last year, i couldn't read or translate books even now i can see movies and series with out subtitles and i can understand all the things that the character are saying, and i think that this it's because this subject, if i wouldn't have this signature maybe i would have neglected my English.

The blogging experience it was fun, well i know that i didn't go to all the classes, but i do all the blogs, and i enjoy doing it, some of then even made me laugh, and this blogs was used for me and for a friend who help me to see all my mistakes (he is going to study English the next year, to be a translator) and it was a very helpful method for me, because i don't usually write in English, and now i can write a lot of things, with out the google translator, and that it's a big progress.

Things that i need to be improved in my English, is my speaking and writing definitely, i still use the same words, basic words and that is so bad, because i look like a child speaking English, my young brother can speak a better English than i can speak, ant that it's kind a sad thing, because he only have 13 years, for that i need to improve my abilities to speak and write in English to reach my brother's level and be able to communicate better with him.

These days i usually use the English, this weak i'm reading a book in English "The rest of us just live here" and it's very confusing, but i'm able to read it, and i'm seeing a lot of series and movies with out subtitles in these days, like shameless (US serie ) the characters talk very fast and in a "south side" English and it's kind a hard to translate, but i have gotten used to this, so it's ok.

Changes to my study programme

It was really hard think about changes in my study programme, it's difficult, because our programme it's very complex, all the subjects was organized by expert professionals that know what they are doing, but i have 1 things until now that are annoying in our study programme. The first "problem" (if i can call it a problem) is with general chemistry laboratory we didn't have all the contents in general chemistry 2, because of that we can't realize some of the experiments of the laboratory, and this is annoying, i think it's not fault of the teachers. but it's not our fault either.

Talking about the workload and length of studies, i really don't have any problema with this, the length of studies it's ok, before was more time, our new study programme have less length of studies, i think it's really great, and this programme give us the chance to do a master meanwhile we do our normal career. The workload it's not heavy for real, so it's not a big deal (for now....), i can do all the things that i usually do.

The facilities of my university are great, i don't have any problem with it, nothing are always broken, stinking or dirty, so nothing to say about that. About use of technology, i'm kind of angry, because we have microscope. but we can't use the most powerful objective (the objective that we have to use with oil). because in other generations the students spotted all the objectives with the oil, and for that reason we can't use this method, it's sad and boring. Finally about teaching methods i really don't have nothing to say, I LOVE the teaching methods of my teachers.

Summer holidays

The magic time of the summer holidays, the period of the year that we have freedom and all the time of the world, we can wake up late, do nothing in all the day, travel around your own city or around the world, eat whatever you want and do whatever you want, because you don't have to study or work (if you don't work in summer).

This summer holidays, i will do many things (like always), starting with go with my two brothers and my parents to Peru, where exactly? well, i don't know, it's kind a surprise, because our mom, don't want to tell us where we go, maybe we don't go to Peru and finally we will go to Argentina.
 The second thing that i will do in my summer holidays it's go with 5 of my friends to La Serena, maybe rent a summer house near to the beach and explore the 4 region of Chile, enjoy the beach, my friends, and the gastronomy of the place.
The third thing that i will do, it's definitely work in February with my best friend, maybe in some combine harvester we don't know yet, the last summer holiday we did that, and we won nearly $300.000, and we worked only 18 days.
 The last thing that i will do this summer it's work (again) in some ONG with my best friend again, it was her idea, but i really exited about this, i have never worked or helped in anything like that. This is my plan for this summer, i hope that i can do all this things.

Addiction?

When someone talk me about drugs or addictions, its kind a hard thing to me, because i don't have any relation with addictable substance, the most nearly experience with any kind of  "drug" is with alcohol maybe, in party or things like that, and is not the big deal, because i only drink one or two times for month, and if i go to this things.

I tried to smoke or drink coffee, but i think that is kind of boring thing, in special smoke, it's so dumb! i didn't feel anything! and the taste of the cigarette it's disgusting, i mean for me it's a disgusting thing. I don't understand how many people can smoke and say that it's enjoyable and a relaxing thing.  And with the coffee it's kind a sugar thing, i don't like bitter taste of the coffee it's only that.

Talking about effects of drugs in the people, the most funny i think it's with alcohol, because it's a inhibitor for our brain, we say thing that without this drug we would never say, and the other effect of the alcohol is that is diuretic, that is one of the most annoying feeling related with drink alcohol.

Well, all of us know about the danger of all kind of drugs. All the drugs are related with one specifically damage, i think that drugs are very dangerous, all of them, but in special the drugs that generate addictions problems. None of the people that i know have a problem with any drug, maybe some friend that smoke marijuana, but not like a real addiction to that drug.

The drugs in my career it's kind of important,because we deal with drugs and we create drugs in special in subjects like toxicology.

Post Graduate studies

When someone talk me about what kind of post graduate studies i will choose. i get a huge fear, this kind of decision it's very hard, in special for us, because we barely start our university studies, and we don't know, what will happen in the future, what kind of subject will like us in that future, or if we will stay in ours careers, because of that start to think about ours post graduate studies is kind a messy decision.

If i had to choose, i think that genetic or toxicological studies will be my post graduate studies, why? because the genetic it's so amazing!! i think that subject in particular, it's one of my favorite subjects in all my entire career, and toxicological studies.... because i think that will be helpful if i try to find a job in the future, because this area it's very important in our times, like in the hospital, they need people with toxicological studies for the drugs that they use in the patients. I will like study this areas in other country, not in Chile, maybe in Canada or France, that will be lovey, and i prefer study this in a blended system, i think that is more easy, and practical, in special with the times, maybe get a job mean while i get this post graduate studies, i don't really know, i don't think too much about it.

My Future Job...

When i start to think in my future job, i think in two things the first one it's be a biochemical (the career that i'm studying ) specialize in the industry area, that will be really great, that its one of my goals, i don't want work in a lab investigating something, i want do repetitive process in a big industry, yeah sound kind of freak.... but that its what i want, because if i can i will love be teacher at the same time that i will working in that industry, that two jobs together are definitely my dream job, mix the professor and industry worker, yeah... while i writing this still sound crazy, i know.

I would love working indoors but always with the chance to travel, in the industrial job, obviously, because with the teacher job, i don't think so. I didn't care too much about the salary, it's not the big deal for me, my fathers don't have a big salary, but we live pretty well, if i can win that amount of money, i think i will be vary happy.  

Talking about specialize or majors i still thinking that while are related to the industrial area it's fine for me, i really don't think to much about it, well not yet, maybe in two years, that will be my most heavy pressure, but know i just enjoying the thing that i learning about my career and that make me happy.

Digressing about music: songs, dances, melodies, groups, films...

The music in my life is very important, because all the things that i do in my routine,i do them while i listen music, like right know writing this post i'm listening Raging by Kygo, but that is just an example, i study, do the dishes, clean up, play and multiple other things.

Talking about the kind of music that i listen the most its complicated because i listen so different styles, i like all of them, i can't choose one, but for example i listen a lot of romantically songs and electronic songs. The song that make me imagine something no matter the kind of the song, i will listen and love it (and listen to many times....), maybe big percent of my playlist are popular songs if that is a kind of music, well that it's my type.

When someone say me what is my favorite instrument in one or two second i answer the violin, definitely, and when is listen the violin of Lindsey Starling, just simple get crazy, it's so great!! the way that she play the violin make me want to learn how to play it, its simple, she its really amazing and she made me love the violin.

My favorite singer it's with out of doubt Sam Smith, The voice of this man charm SO much! the way that he use the acute is very powerful, i remember the first time that i listen to him in the song La La La, in that moment i start to love him and until know i still loving him! in special when i heard the song "Drowning Shadows"...... wow, that make me feel strong feelings, because the lyrics and the way that he sing that song, make me thing that he is suffering, that  he live the lyrics and that made the most charming performance that i ever listen.
Closing this post i really doesn't change to much my music preference, in fact i still listen La oreja de van goh or miguel bose and that singers i have been listening since i was little. And in the last point but no less important the soundtrack of a movie, easy.... the song Sparkle of the movie "Your name".... This song make you crazy while you are seeing the movie, in special when you see one scene, the moment when the protagonist see each other in the parallel train trough the windows and in that second they start to run for all Tokyo just for find the person that they thought never exist, its was simple amazing. Listen by yourself :) .
