My favourite subject

Imagen
Hi again! In this time, I will talk you about my favourite subject this semester. My favourite subject is “Chilean Social History”. I love the way that the teacher teaches us. He tells us about “history” precisely as if he were telling us one. And although it happens like a normal class where the teacher talks and the students listen, your concentration never goes away. You are always paying attention and imagining the different processes that happened in the past, and that, as our teacher has taught us, it still happening today. We have seen, for example, how our state has been shaped, as well as the different subjects that have intervened in the process. We have talked about the popular sectors, the customs and the different social movements that have been given and organized in our country. We have also talked about the consequences they have brought, and the deaths of those who have been forgotten. I think it's because of all this that I like this subject. Beca...

I admire...

Hi everyone! Today, I will talk about a person that I admire about my career. This person is a woman named "Marilda Iamamoto". Marilda Iamamoto is a brazilian social worker. She born in Minais Gerais but there isn’t information about her year of birth. In addition to being a social worker, she is a Master in Rural Sociology, retired professor at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) and, currently, Visiting Professor at the Fluminense Federal University (UFF). She has made important contributions to brazilian social work, and to social work in the entire world. For example, her contribution has influenced in an important way the elaboration of the Minimum Curriculum of the Brazilian Association of Teaching in Social Service (ABESS). Also, she talks a lot about social relations in her country and in general, insisting that there must be a transformation of them. I think that she is a very strong woman who has known how to use the bad moments tha...

My worst week

Imagen
Hi again! In this post I will talk about my last week. Last week it was my worst week. Last week it was my worst week. Everything started on Thursday. This day, like others Thursdays, I had to stay late for English. So, while we were waiting, we (my friends and me) went to the “Portal Ñuñoa” to lunch. This day, I dropped my cellphone on the floor, and the screen broken. Later, while we were trying to do some homework, I note that my shoe was broken too. It was so embarrassing. But not only that, when I was in the computers I was listening to music with my headphones, and today I note that I don´t have it. It´s stayed on the table!!!! When I arrived to my home, I thought everything would be fine, but I was wrong, again. I was sick two days, and I past one entire night to the hospital, the Saturday night. And Sunday, when I wake up, I feel really fine. I say “today will be a great day”. I started down the stairs, but I fell. I, literally, rolled down the stairs. ...

My favourite photograph

Hi, this is the picture that I choose, my favourite photograph. My brother Nicolás, to the left, was who take the selfie. This photograph shows a part of my family, an important part for me. There is my brother Nicolás, my mother Tatiana, my cousins Simón y Joaquín, my father Luis with my niece Agustín, my sister in-law Nikolle, my aunt Natasha, a friend named María and me. This photograph was taken in winter, into the holidays. We was in Pucón, the place where my grandfather used to live. This day, we went to the beach for a walk. I remember the cold and the wind, like winter obviously, but so much difficult to tolerate, as is usually the south. I choose this photo because I think that represents me, like I really am. All the persons in this photo, included those who wasn’t be in there, in that little moment, are the most important thing in my life. That moment captured all things I am and I have. I am a very happy person. I love to laugh. I have a really aweso...

My last dream

Imagen
Today, I will try something different. I will reveal some deeper things about me. I hope you take this seriously and enjoy it. As time goes by, you realize that the only thing that keeps you afloat in life is your dreams ... but what happens when time goes on and on and it's never fulfilled? It is then that the day comes when you realize that your only real dream is to see a sunset ... all the trips around the world, extreme adventures, passionate loves, the shame of others, are reduced to this; watch a sunset next to a person you love. By then you will have grown, you will have lived a thousand experiences and known a thousand people; You have already realized for yourself what are those things in life that are worthwhile. You will have made mistakes and fulfilled dreams, and then, that moment will come when you are alone and you feel vulnerable, and your last dream will not be to go around the world, or live a thousand more lives, it will be the simple, ridicu...

My favourite piece of technology

Hi! Today, I will talk about my favourite piece of technology: the book The "book" represents, for me, the most important and special piece that we have, like humans. In general, all of us have books in our houses or schools, or our places of work. So, the books aren´t difficult to get. When I read my first book, I discover a new entire world. It´s just children´s stories, but for me, this moment left an indelible mark inside of me. I read my first book when I was just a little girl, and it was for my family influence.  I think we can use the books for to learn about a lot of things from the life: since science, to astrology, love, biographies about important people, etc. But, I think we mustn´t only “use” the books, I think we must make them part of ourselves.   I see the books like saviors. We must “use” it for evade us, to dream, to imagine a new world, like mirrors of our soul and windows of the soul of the others. Personally, I “use” them to im...

My study dreams

Imagen
Hi again!!! In this post, I will talk about my study dreams. When I was a Little girl, I dreamed with of being a police, like my father, but when I grew up, I understood that this life isn't that I wanted for me. One day, when I was in the school, I dreamed with of being a lawyer, because I wanted to make the world a fairer place. I kept this dream for a long time, repeating over and over again that it was that I wanted, without realizing it, in the end, that it was not, I didn’t want, once again, this life for me. This is how I decided, in fourth grade of high school, study social work. So, social work  was the only career option that I had at the moment of applying to university. When I entered to study social work at the Universidad de Chile, I was very excited and expectant about what would happen from then on. In the beginning, it wasn’t easy. I am not very good to make Friends, and this make me sad. But later, I found a very good partners that s...
