My ideal job

Well, I really wish I shouldn't have to work. Not that I prefer staying at home all day watching TV or something like that, but work always takes off a lot of our precious time. That's why I would like to work in something where I would be able to control the work schedule. I think studying psychiatry I’ll be able to have my own place where to work, and that way managing the time where I'll be able to attend people. So, I could have time for my family, if I have one and time for me, obviously; time to read, to go out, to be in peace hearing some music, and not thinking that I'm too late to see somebody. Time to do some sport! Gooood! I really hate being stressed! So, that is the most important thing, I want a job where I could fine harmony and my lovely and noisy peace.

My favourite subject

I think my favourite subject this year is philosophy. Jorge Fernandez is our teacher and he’s really funny. Maybe this is one of the most important reasons why I like this topic.
I like it also because of a trouble I’ve been having with the career. I don’t like the undefined mixed of stuff. I know all subjects have something subjective, but when it makes you troubles when you are in some class, such as, “but I don’t think it is true” and it is Ok, because is someone’s opinion, it gets kind of annoying when it starts making the class longer in time. In this area, we all know that it cannot be objective, it is all based in someone’s opinion, and so, we are already on that trouble.
We have learned about Descartes at first, then a little about Locke and now about Immanuel Kant and his Metaphysics of Morals. It's all quite interesting! Even when I wished to know about this guys with difficult pronunciation names.

Do Schools kill Creativity

Since we are little kids is possible to see how our creativity gets only where our teachers or the society where we are born in needs it.
The kids are who has the biggest imagination ever. We can see that when they are playing. Also, somebody once said “We can see the most serious person in a kid when he is playing”. But, when we are in school, there are a lot of things we are not permitted to do, we can only play sometimes, and we end converted in some kind of machines prepared to work. Because, that’s the life we will live. We have to work to live and in that are in what we will spend all our adulthood.
And that’s how school kills creativity.
Anyway, school is not the worst things it looks like. It can be consider something good. It teaches us things that will help us to fit in the society and can help to satiate our anxiety of knowing.

My future

I think in five years from now I'll still be studying something. I really wish I shouldn't have to do this, but well, I have to and anyway I hope everything works as I want, finishing medicine.
In five years I think I'll still living in my parents house with them and their support but of course I'll be looking for some place for living alone.
My ideal future is related to armony. I wish been a good psychiatrist and get a quiet place to live, I don't know, I guess in barrio Bellavista, Bellas Artes, Providencia or something, if I stay in Santiago, because, if I can go to Valparaiso, I'll definatly will. Have a child and have enough time to spend with her and to travel a lot for seeing bands as The Mars Volta wish I've promese to myself are other plans for my future.
I've always said that I won't die until I go to another The Mars Volta's gig and see them play Cassandra Gemini, a 32 minutes song of them wich is my favourite.
And I guess is that.
Of course that as a girl, I would like to have a husband and all that but is not priority.

The best in my area.

Jane Goodall is a british ethologist, antrophologist and primatologist woman who has spend forty five years of her life studying chimpanzee behaviour in Tanzania.
I like her because of her humility and determination of doing big things, as going to the Africa with a friend and having to work very hard as a waitress for paying this trip. I have always admire people who fight for what they want.
I think this is what makes her the best, the power she has to do what she likes. The way she goes from a deep place, in a modest family, to a high one as an ethologist who has show awesome results of her studies.

My career.

I never thought studying psychology. But that was until I was in the twelfth grade. I always wanted to be a doctor or something related to biology, actually. But, the past year, it all changed when I started talking to my psychology and philosophy teacher, Claudia, out of the lessons. This time was when I started admiring her. I really think she is an awesome woman, and it inspired me for what I'm doing now.
The best thing about it... I think is its complexity; it has a lot of areas we can know deeper and which are very interesting.
The worst thing until know has been the lots of books we have to read. They are not all of our likes and this makes you feel uncomfortable, but anyway, that is just one class we will pass in one semester (If we are optimistic).
My career expectations... they are having a relaxing job. A job where I could control my schedule and where I will have enough time to expend with my family. And I think that's all.
I want to study something else when I finish anyway.

My favourite photograph.

This photograph was taken on my vacations with my family on Concón. The story is the thing I like the most.

I took this photo the day we decided to go to Valparaíso. In the morning I was suposed to go buying breakfast, so I go down with Goliath very quickly, at 10AM I guess, and when we where on our way back, I noticed this flower. And it was weird because I went down for the same way I was passing by this time!. So, I realized that that flower showed up just at certain hours. At ten at the morning is was just a little cocoon. It was like it was hidden and waited until we had the time to see its beauty.

The nice thing was that I took the picture after we aet our breakfast, when we were waiting for the bus that will take us to Valparaiso, with mommy and daddy and my sis.

So, this is why i like it. Is a combination of emotions of my family, Concón and Valparaiso, and also, the colours I think are awesome.

My most precious possession.

Music has been really meaninful all my life. When I was little, my brother was suposed to take care of me when mommy and daddy go out. So, he gived me my milk, and we stayed watching TV until they got home. We watched MTV a lot! and there was when I start listening to music; my brothers music. What a copycat! But it was because of the habit of hearing it all the time! Anyway, the time go through, and I started to get contact with more people, and knowing more groups, or bands, or singers, so my brothers music stoped being my favourite and y started liking my own, so, after this i could say "I like this kind of music" and that is how I meet more people! And that is how I meet my ex boyfriend!... He was a drummer and he also loved music. He show me a lot of new bands and I know that he is the only one who enjoys music the way that I do; of some inexplicable way that only we can understand. We just love it. Well, one day, when we were just friends, like now, he told me: "You have to hear this! You will love it! If you liked Pink Moon by Nick Drake you definatly have to hear this!" It was "Alas, I Cannot Swim!" by Laura Marling. This album has become my favourite of all time. I have listened hundred times and never bores me.
It is too bloody meaningful for me. It has something of my ex boyfriend who is very very important for me, even now that we are just friends. And also, has something of my other friend who give it too me as a gift, and who is someone that marked a really good time in my life. And... I was forgotten a little thing wich is very important too; the package of the LP, now is full of dry flowers that Nacho got for me when he was in Valle del Elqui! It is full of all things I appreciate.
When I hear Alas, is like everything becomes quiet (and that is just because of the music). When I stop to put ear to the lyrics, it is something that makes it even better!.
The last song, is my anthem.
This is my favourite possession. It has some of the most important things for me. Is like my all world but tiny. It is feeling. For me this record is life.

My last vacations.

Well, my last vacations were not much diferent to the others. This year I went to Concón, a pretty city near Viña del Mar. It's kind of small and really quiet until you get to the beach. "Playa Amarilla" beach is great if you want to swim and if you want to play something on the sand (wich is yellow as the name says).
For common as was going to this place (we go every year here; there is my grand mothers house), this time was diferent. My dad who used to stay in Santiago working, joined us; and also did Goliath, our dog! I love him very much; I really think this was the funiest vacations and it was because of him. If someone is energetic, he is Goliath! He keep us all high, happy!. Everybody in my family loves Goliath.
Anyway, we stayed in Concón for a week I think. And the last day was kind of mine. I took my family to Cerro Alegre in Valparaiso. That place has something that just music makes me feel. Is like the place makes you breath with the most relexing and energetic rythim at the same time. When I go there I feel more alive. The colors. It was great going there with my family to show them the places I love.
And I guess that's it. It was great, I had a lot of fun and a lot of great memories of going there.

My best friend :)

My best friend is called Ignacio, who usually is Nacho or "Nachosho" for his love for the number eight.
I met him by internet. It was I think a year ago by "last.fm", an internet website were we can show to other people the music we like. I don't really know how was that he found my profile, but when he did he said hi, and then I answered and, after that we start talking and talking and it was like we knew each other since we were little kids. It was so nice to find a guy who talks in the same language that you use, and I'm not talking about spanish. We have a lot of things in common, one of them is music, of course (I guess if we didn't like similar music we wouldn't talk as first thing), but, we both wanted to study psychology! And I've thought that I woundn't be here if I didn't have the motivation of having him for classmate. But something happened in our trip to become an adult or something like that. The day that the PSU results were published we could see that for five miserable points the great idea was endend, he could study a lot of things ç but psychology. So, the day after that, we wanted to see the others careers in the university, so that was the day when I really meet him. He was late, as usual. I wated for him at Universidad de Chile station, and I was listening to music to not fall sleep (The day before was really tiring) So when he get I said "Nachoooooo!" and so we go to the university to see what we had planed and it was a really nice day, we runned everyway, we make stupid things as but the first thing that came to our minds and of course, we were all day laughing.
So, that was the 3rd of dicember of 2008...
Now, Nacho is studing philosophy in the same university that I'm so, I kind of see him everyday. So, whenever I want, I can walk a few steps, and then I call him so he makes my day happier.

Something about me.

Well, I'm Daniela. I'm an eighteen years old girl who some peple could say loves everything, wich I really think is not true, maybe a little, but I don't really love all things that we can see or hear or whatever. Even though I can understand why they think that. Maybe it is because I kind of love life. I love the air that touches your face in a sunny day. I love the colors that we are able to recognize. I love see the energy we all have but we don't know. I loooove music; music is like another breath we take and something that makes you feel more alive. I love a lot of stuff actualy. And when somebody says "yeees! I love this! and this too! oh, and this!" is kind of "duuude, you are such a child" and yeah, maybe. I like leaving life as a was five.
I'm quite sure that everything I have said is interesting for nobody but me, so I will tell about the things everybody ask when you say "what do you like?"
I like doing sports. I play kung fu since I'm five, I guess... I already say I like music; my favourite band is The Mars Volta, they are aaaaawesome! ♥. I also like folk music and progressive things, and music for being music. :D
I used to draw a lot, and I stop doing it for not having the time enough to do it. Books... In school I hate reading, but in the vacations of this year I realized I liked reading, it was just that the books in school were too damn crappy (no all but the most of them). Favourites, I don't know, I guess is "El Tunel" by Ernesto Sabato or "1984" by George Orwell and of course "El Amor en los Tiempos del Cólera" by Gabriel García Márquez.
And, what else... I'm studing psychology, first year at university, and I have liked the career aand...
I like taking pictures of some moments. Things that are special for me.
And well, that's all I would like to say about me. One again, I guess.-
