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.
