Summer plans

I am more excited and I look forward for my vacations! Because this year has been very long for me in the University. Between May and August the students of Universidad de Chile declared to go on strike and We were 2 months on strike and in September we returned to class. Since that moment, the university has been more stressful because we lost a lot of time and the contents were shortened! On December 30th I have the last exam and finally I finish my semester.

Well, after all in the third week on January we do our second professional practice. Me and my class  are going to Pantanillos, Concepcion  for one week and after this week we are going to Malleco for our second week to practice.

That is, I have only two week to rest and recharge my energy. Also in these two week I can enjoy with my family! Because on February 3rd I will take the plane to Arica because we would like to visit Peru and Bolivia for a month with my boyfriend. This trip finishes on March 3rd and on this date I will enter to University again.

Machu picchu, Peru.

My boyfriend planned the route that we could make when we arrive to Arica and he wrote the possible route in his book. 

The places that we would like to know are Machu picchu and Salar de Uyuni but my boyfriend already knows Peru so He will be my guide...

This trip is more important for me because I will travel for first time on plane!

                                            

My Best Friend

Today... I will tell you about my best friend! The name of my best friend is Edgard and I met him in the school. He is my first friend, because before I went to a school where there were only girls. I met Edgard when I was 16 years old and He was very sloppy! One day my teacher changed the seat of students in the classroom and She assigned me to sit next to Edgard! And our conversation began because he asked me for a pencil! We stayed all the class sitting together and in the break all Edgard's friends got to know me.

From that moment I never separated from them and with the time the boys considered me as one more of the group. We were five persons and we were going together to all places. The other boys are named Michel, Manuel and Enrique and I was the only woman in this group and my friends named me Bryan André because they considered me a boy!

I was very happy with them and most part of the day I laughed with the things that they talked. We had many difficult moments together like when Edgard was going to be a father!! When he told me this news I was very sad because I felt that would be more difficult for him.

With the time... We grew apart  because each one his or her own obligation and We are all studying in the University. So the time is limited.

How green are you?

In this day, I will tell you about how I care for the nature. In my house, it is more difficult to recycle because my mother disagrees with my way of recycling. But for me it is more important this green activity because the world is in serious problem with the human activity. Besides I live in an apartment and the community don't have a system that allows me sort in different trash can the litter that my family and me produce.

However the sister of my boyfriend is more careful with the things that you can recycle, and they have different trash can to sort out the organic waste, paper, piece of glass, plastic or other waste. Once a week they go to Homecenter to take out the contents that they accumulated in the week at the different trash cans. Homecenter has a place that is called Punto limpio and you can take out the trash and It is located closer to my house. But when I talk with the mother about my boyfriend... She says that it is more difficult to maintain the order and sort out the trash, because nobody teaches about the materials that you can recycle or how you do  this. Moreover you need  to go to Punto limpio and a car to carry the sorted out trash.

My future Job

I have a idea of my future job, I would really like to work with kids because I feel that this little person is the key to change the world. The kids have a open mind and They learn very fast. It is the reason that motivates me to work with them.

I have thought that when I finish my career, I will study pre-school teaching to have many techniques to teach to kids and my future children. I would like to teach all I have learned at the University such as all about the care of plants and trees. 

In this year, I have participated in Arboretum Antumapu that is the nearest to my idea of my future work, because in an opportunity many kids of different schools came here at the University and my classmates and me did a  tour in the different parts of the Campus where many trees are planted to make a conservation ex-situ. In this tour every one walked and talked with a group of children and told them about the objective of Arboretum and the importance of conservation of those species. 

A little of this is that I would like to do in the future! But still I haven't finished my career and my idea of my future job can change. 

Election Day

In this opportunity I will tell you about the election day, and I say to you how it is in my country. In Chile, you can be citizen when you are 18 years old and in this moment you begin to vote. I am 20 years old and the last year is the first time that I voted because the election is every other 4 years. The last year has 9 candidates and in the first round I voted for Alfredo Sfeir because this person is the most representative for me. In the second round I didn't vote because there were 2 candidates Michelle Bachelet and Evelyn Matthei and they didn't represente my thinkings.

In the personal I don't like the electoral campaigns! I think that the electoral campaigns is totally unnecessary because it uses more money in propaganda and it is more excessive. Also I think that the campaigns are a little aggressive because the country gets filled with giant poster that promote one candidate and all places have many poster. I believe that the campaigns degrade the little beauty that  Santiago has and only you can see poster everywhere.

Unfortunately Chile doesn't have civic education and the most of people decide for benefit and they are persuaded but the lies of the different candidates. 

It is a shame....

A day to remember

Hi bloggers!! Today I will tell you about a day that I always remember. It day is when with my class visited the reserve national "Llanquihue".

The reserve is located in Puerto Montt and it was created in 1912. The path is a excursion until the volcano Calbuco, means 8 kms of extension and four hours to trekking.

This day we wake up very early and go up the bus very rushed for arrive the reserve! We begin the trekking with my miss of Botanic like guide and I was going behind her.

In the road, she and I were going talk about the trees, plants and others places that she recommended for my last trekking. She commented me about the cascade that be in this place and the refuge nearby to volcano.

We was made a stop in a place that be millenary trees, this trees was Alerce!!! And I never saw this tree, I do know it! Millenary Alerce was a huge tree and between all my friends reached hug it.


When the trekking finished I told with my miss about the cascade, and I ask her for the place that was the cascade and she answered that the cascade was in a being of the trekking.

I go down very rushed with some classmate for reach to cascade, we ran a lot of for the track and finally we reached to cascade!!!! And the place was most beauty!! 

We decided go into the water in the cascade!! And it was very cold!!!! You doesn't stay motionless because you could freeze!!

 

The Best Concert I've ever seen

Aflora Reggae

Hi bloggers, In this opportunity I will tell you about the best concert I've ever seen. This concert isn't a big organization because it is done in a bar. 

This is done in Chiloé while I was traveling in the South of Chile with my boyfriend.

We rushed to reach Ancud to listen to this group because it is really good the music that they sing and play.

Aflora is a Chilean group and it is a band dedicated to diffusion of the reggae music. We love reggae and it is our favorite music. 

On the trip we missed the music because when you hitch-hike you spend a lot of time alone on the road and miss the simple things of the life like the music.

I remember that that day we arrived in Ancud at night and we ate in a restaurant of fast food that was near the bar where the concert was being held. The presentation finished very late, near three in the morning and we didn't have a place to go to sleep and we had to sleep behind a big rock in the ravine edge.
