English Language Challenges

Imagen
Learning English during university has been quite pleasant, using blogs doing a task every week makes it not extremely exhausting and I enjoy doing them, because it is an interactive and new method for me, since, I had never done something like it, this system is interactive since we are given space to share our opinion, experiences, anecdotes, etc. I love that it is a public blog because it allows us to see what my partners write by comparing opinions and interacting which has been lost due to the online method, speaking of my English I think I should improve my fluency and confidence when speaking, since when I am saying one sentence I start to doubt if it is well formulated, which makes it sound strange when speaking, to improve this I plan to practice with friends, which I have done before especially during the summer for which I know it has helped me and would help me a lot I have not done this during the semester due to lack of time, but I always try to be close to the language. ...

Changes to my study programme

Imagen
 As a first year architecture student, I haven't had many subjects, but the ones I have had I have loved, although I confess that the  workload is quite high, especially in the workshop course, where classes last too long and then we have to continue working in our free time generating stress, which I have seen very much reflected in some of my classmates, so I feel that this is something that should change.  Since I entered the career in 2021 most of the classes I have had have been online, so I don't know the facilities of the faculty, so I can't give my opinion about it. the use of technology has seemed to me quite good, in the first semester some professors taught us how to use some computer programs I thought was very cool. The teaching methodology has seemed efficient to me, especially in subjects such as mathematics and geometry, despite the sanitary conditions we are living in, the teachers have been concerned about teaching us in the best possible way. altho...

Time travel to the Future

Imagen
  Assuming I can travel to the future, i would like to stay in chile, because interesting things always happen here, check if it looks like a futuristic place as it 's described in the movies of this style that I have seen, visit the touristic places to see if they have changed like the atacama desert, will it still bloom in spring?  I would also investigate if the measures that are being taken in 2021 about environmental care have worked or the planet's resources are still being wasted and polluting it excessively. on the other hand, to find out the most relevant events that have occurred in that period of time,  globally and nationally, who won the elections in 2021, did it have repercussions on citizenship? second social outbreak? was equal marriage approved? was there another great earthquake like the 27f? did the migratory crisis improve? did any country achieve its independence?  I would go specifically to the year 2070 because it seems to me a date not too far...

My future job

Imagen
 I would like to travel and visit different places, but not developing my professional activity but to live different experiences, to have other points of view and thus be able to broaden my horizons, which in turn is enriching for my professional life as well as for my personal development. At the end of this stage of my life as a student of architecture I would like to specialize in environmental studies, since knowing and studying the environment is something that has always called my attention, how we can take care of it and live in the company of it and not depredating the diversity that exists there. For the above mentioned outdoor jobs are for me a priority option, since it would allow me to work more independently. Sincerely the monetary motive has never been a central axis, I recognize its importance, but I believe that delivering a good job is not chained to money. From my point of view, the knowledge that we will acquire in this process will give me the tools to carry ou...

Your Bucket List

Imagen
Honestly I'm afraid to have a bucket list, 'cause I think that when I fulfill everything, I'm going to die or something like that 😟😂, but forgetting that, I think that having one would be based entirely on travel, acquiring knowledge about the places I visit, taking this into account, I would love to visit all the continents, on the other hand, do extreme activities and be able to speak fluently at least 5 languages.  Having said that I think the most difficult thing for me would be to speak different languages, because I'm very lazy and it costs me to finish what I propose, that's why I know the basics of several languages but I don't speak them fluently like English, French and Arabic, except Portuguese and Catalan. Taking into consideration I have already visited 2 continents America  (not considering Chile) and Europe my favorite city was Barcelona, Spain where I lived almost two years, so I hope to visit very soon the other continents. I would like to sha...

My favorite movie

Imagen
 My favorite movie is the princess and the frog,  because it's not like the typical Disney princess movies, it has excellent songs like "dig a little deeper" and "friends on the other side".  The goal of tiana, and the characters is to fulfill their dreams so we can empathize with them,  she was the first black princess in Disney,  I think is quite important, since it is a very famous company, so to get out of the stereotypes about how a princess should look, for black girls to have a reference is good because they can identify themselves outside of the classic princesses that were blonde and white. The movies I like to watch the most are animated movies. , especially the ones from dreamworks. the recent movie I saw was "shark tale". I highly recommend it, it's a bit old so the animation is not very good but it is fun and enjoyable. I have seen it many times and it never bores me, it is better to watch it in english because the dubbing isn't so...

The best holidays

Imagen
If I had to choose my best holidays, I definitely choose the one I had in December 2019, together with my family we made a trip in which, we spent two weeks in Cusco, Peru. During the second day we did a hike that gave way to the most iconic place of this city Machu Picchu.  Machu Picchu In the following days we visited some museums in the center of the city such as the "museo de arte popular". In addition to this, we also visited the "Montaña Vinicunca ", sector at 5200 meters above sea level, where you can feel a totally different air to Santiago that is purer, then we went to a restaurant to eat my favorite peruvian food "causa rellena".  Montaña Vinicunca  In spite of having gone to this city in several occasions, I consider that this was the most significant because of the fact that I could spend more time with my family, relax from the stress of living in a centrall place, know a world heritage site and enjoy in better way the and its traditional arc...
