A different photo

Today I’m going to talk about a very special photo. I took this photo when we went to a trekking excursion whit a group of friends. It shows a paraglider whit the sun behind him, also you can see a big part of Santiago, the light of the sunset gives it a very special effect.

 I took this photo on February 13^th, 2014 in El Cajón del Maipo. I like it because it looks magic, the view is beautiful and the sunset over the paraglider shows us something different. Also this photo reminds me a very good week that I spent whit my friends in this vacations, also a very good day climbing the mountain. I think that the photo transmits you in some way the sensation of being in this place, of having this beautiful view. Also when I see this picture I can imagine why this paraglider does what he does. Finally this photo brings to my memory the gratifying sensation of arriving to the summit of a mountain after a big sacrifice and having a reward, in this case this view was enough.

About the animals.

I don’t know if I’m an animal’s lover but I like them and really makes me angry to see anybody hurting them.

The first pet I got was a dog, a big one that had the same age than me. He lived in my house for thirteen years and then he dies. I was very sad and in this moment I don’t want to have another dog. A few months later I change my mind and I really want to have another dog, then I got the golden retriever that I actually have.

I’m agree of using animals in medical research only if this research don’t hurts the animals of if they aren’t  abused in the process. About the zoo I think that is good the work that they do with animals that are in danger, or when they help some hurt animal, but I’m not agree of keeping them in the zoo just for people to see them.

When I was just a kid a big dog bite me in the head, I just want to caress him. It was really painful and I needed to go to the hospital. After that I started to be vaccinate for the rabies. It wasn't funny, but it  doesn't make me be afraid of dogs.

If I could be an animal I think that I would choose to be an eagle to be able to fly and see a lot of things, to travel far away, and don’t be worried for others animals can eat me.

My cellphone

My cellphone is absolutely my favourite piece of technology. I got it the past year for my birthday. I bought it with some money that I save during the year. 

It’s my favourite piece of technology because it allows me to be in touch with everybody in everyplace. With it I can chat with my friends all the day long using WhatsApp or Facebook. I can go to Google when I have a doubt or see a map if I’m lost. It makes all the travels more fun and when I need to wait for something I use it to read news or see some videos on Youtube. Before I have my cellphone my favourite piece of technology was my computer, now I can do the most of things that I did in the computer in my cellphone in every place. I use my cellphone all the day long, sometimes too much, I think. 

I guess my life without my cellphone would be less fun, it would be difficult to be in touch with my friends and some things would be more complicated and harder.  

A new semester in a new place

This first semester I´m taking seven subjects: Anthropology I, Archeology I, which is my favorite one, Biology (That’s the one I hate), Latin-American History, that is really interesting because it has a different point of view from the one that I had at school, Social Sciences Philosophy, Social Sciences Studying Method, a very boring subject, and English.
This semester I’m not taking extracurricular because I think that I don’t have any time left and I want to get used to the university exigencies first. But I´m part of the swimming team of the university and I hope to go to competitions whit them in this semester.
My expectations for this semester are to learn a lot, to get used to the university’s requirements  and to enjoy every moment and every activity that I do, to make good friends and to meet people. And of course, to have good grades in all the subjects. 

That's me

I was born in the independence celebration, in September 19th of 1995 in Santiago, Chile. I grew up in Puente Alto and enjoy a wonderful childhood.

Then I went to the Colegio Belén where I did my elementary formation. After that a went to Benjamín Vicuña Mackenna High School. There I meet very good friends and also learned a lot of things about life. In this year I also start to swim. I graduate of High School in 2013 and this year I started studying Anthropology at the Universidad de Chile.
 
I live with my parents and haven’t brothers or sisters. I also have a dog and a cat that really are part of the family.

I really love sports. I swim, so in my free times I train in the pool or in the gym. I started swimming in Club Recrear and now I’m swimming for the university team. I like to go out with my friends and I really like traveling. I like to go to the beach and surfing too. I haven’t talent for music or arts.

Thast’s me.
