English Language Challenges

The truth is that I've never liked English. I think it's because it has always cost me a lot and things you like when you do them well. However, I believe that learning this language is very necessary and useful. Personally I have a poor English base at school and I have never done a course elsewhere, so it is not easy for me to learn English at university. Sometimes I think that the only way to learn will be living for a while in an English speaking country.
I think blogs are a good way to improve writing, and it's fun to read my classmates´s experiences. I do not think it's a better way to learn English, but it's better to do something than do nothing.

I think I have to improve my English a lot but it is very complicated for me. Maybe I should take a course but I do not have time. Another option may be to read more in English. I have always thought that reading is one of the best options to learn anything. I honestly think that I should to take more advantage of  English classes in college. But I have so many subjects and although I do not want to, I often neglect English . The university does not leave you enough time to learn a language.

Finally I must say that outside of English classes I do not use the language at all. I do not like music in English very much. And I always see the films with dubbing. (Yes, I know, many people hate me for that, but it's something that I can not control) Despite this, I know that in the future English will be fundamental in my career, both in school and at work. So I think I'll have to learn soon anyway.

Thank you very much for reading my blog.!

Changes to my study programme

Hello everyone! In the post number 9, I will write about the changes that I would like to do in my career.
I am in second year of my career. The curriculum of Chemistry and Pharmacy in University of Chile was changed the last year. I think that this change was good, but can still improve.
I think the subjects are fine, although I also think that some I will not use them in the future, but anyway I must know them because their use will depend on the area in which I work.
I would like to change the workload. There are semesters where there are many subjects and all are difficult!! This leaves me little free time. If I could I would make a variation. I would put, in one semester, some difficult subjects with others that are not so. Although I do not know if there are "not difficult" subjects :(
Also I would to have better infrastructure in the university and more technology, but I know that I am in a public university and those things are not possible in this moment.
With respect to the teaching methods I am satisfied. I really like the social approach offered by the university. If I could change something of this, It would be at the level of all education in Chile, mainly in evaluations.
I don`t know how to change it, but I would like that not to evaluate so many things from memory, and also that to evaluate other skills, such as art and music, since we all have skills for different things.
I still don`t see such a change possible in my country.

Summer holidays

Hello everyone! In this post, I tell you about my plans for these summer holidays.

How every year, I think that I travel to Coronel with my parents. Coronel is a city located in VIII region of Chile, to 40 minutes of Concepción. In this place live my grandmother, two uncles, one aunt and three cousins. The house of my grandmother is big and she has a big yard too. I enjoy very much to visit this place. I think that this is one of my favorite places in the world. (I don´t know many places but in Coronel, I am very happy). I like very much this city because is located near to the beach and I love the sea! Other things why I enjoy stay there is the family. In January the house is very full of people. Arrive family of Santiago and Argentina. I love the sensation of meet again with them.
Coronel is a small city, but you can find many activities to do. You can not miss the beach! In Coronel is Playa Blanca and Playa Maule. The last is a danger because the waves are very big, but if you like to walk on the sand feeling the sea breeze is a good activity. A bit more far, it´s found Playa Colcura (my favorite), there sometimes the sea look like swimming pool because the waves are low!
Other things that I do there, is visit museums and parks. The Jorge Alessandri´park is very beautiful!

This summer I would like to go to Talcahuano and visit the Huascar. I went when I was a child and I don´t remember very well this experience.

The most important for me this holidays is enjoying to my grandmother. I don´t know when she isn´t more with me and before that, I want to deliver all my love.

Pets

Hello everyone!

In this post I will write about a pet I would like to have.
Many years ago I don´t have a pet. When I was a child, I had many ducks, a rabbit, and two birds. But when I grew up I decided don´t have any pets because they need time that I couldn´t give them for the school, and now for the university.
In spite of that, I think that to have a pet is good, you can to find a friend in an animal.

I would like to have an elephant. I know that in this moment you are surprised or laughing, but is true. I know too that this it is not a domestic animal, but I love it. For that, I would like to have a big site in a suitable habitat for my elephant.
What I like most of this animal is his size and his trunk!! I think that if he is my friend, he could defend me!
Other reasons why I like this animal is that he is very smart and he have the adaptability in different habitat.


The name I would give them is Andy. Always I think that this is a good name for an elephant.

I want this animal for can to play football with he and can to take a shower together!!

I hope that you enjoy this post! Also I hope that you believe me that I want a elephant!!

Postgraduate studies

In this post I will talk about postgraduate courses that I would like to take in the future. The truth is that I do not think about that now. I think that after studying so many years I would like to stop for a time. Maybe take some recreational courses (although I hope to be able to do them soon) like learning salsa dancing, playing piano or learning French. These are things I have always liked.
Well, I think it is not so essential but it is important to do postgraduate courses in the area that I study because this way it is easier to find work. I think a magister in Pharmacology would be fine. Or maybe a specialization in Dopping and Drugs of Abuse or in Pharmacy Clinic. These are the areas that I like the most in my career. I would like to study mainly in Chile, but if I have the opportunity to study abroad I do not think I would doubt it. Spain or France would be good options, mainly for the language.
Finally I must mention that I would like a part-time course, because I must study and work at the same time. And if I'm abroad I also have to know places and cultures!

I do not usually think about the future, so far I'm focused on studying and finishing well my undergraduate studies. I'll see what happens later !!

My future job

Hello everyone! Today I will tell you about the work I would like to have in the future.
Many people when I say my career, they tell me "what boring to work in a pharmacy", but the truth is that the field of this career is very ample.
Some time ago I wanted to work in a laboratory, hidden and isolated, ​​but lately I think I would like to have more contact with people, inform and help the population more directly. I think maybe I could work in a hospital, in the area of pediatrics because I love children. I would also like to travel to countries where people are not so informed about the use of medicines and so help them. 
If this does not work, I think Dr Simi's pharmacy would not be bad.
With respect to the salary, I know that it is important, but with having enough to live is fine. Well, I will not lie, I would also like to have some pleasure trips sometimes.
Now I do not like to think much about my future, it scares me a little. And I feel that I must enjoy this stage first, although I also know that time passes very quickly and very soon I will be working.
I also do not think much about doing any magister or doctorate. I think maybe I would, but at the moment I think that after more than 5 years, I want to stop studying for a time hahaha.

Thematic post-nacional holidays

Hello everyone!

Today I will write about the activities that I did during the free days we had a few weeks ago.

On the little vacations we had, I rested, slept, visited my family and shared with friends.

These national holidays started at the university, on September 15, in the "quimifonda" where I ate, dance and I laughed a lot with my friends. (The photo I put at the end is from that day)

Another day I went with my mom to my cousin's house, it was very entertaining. I like it when we all get together! Play with my cousins ​​guys and ate a lot, again jajaja (the summer operation should start now??  nah)

The truth is that I did not do other things out of the ordinary.
I met my best friend and talked a lot, as always. We had a lot of news to tell each other.

I also had to study, because after those free days, the worst moment of the semester began, the tests.

That was it, I think the best of that date is to share with the people that one wants and eat empanadas, of course.

Thank you very much for reading my post. You have a good day!!
