English language challenges

My experience about learning english at university has been very important and clarifying. I think that I can now talking with more fluency, and I can understand all the text that I'm reading, like for example the papers in the neurofisiology subject. But I can't use the tences correctly. This is the most important for me, and the item more complicated too. In the blog I can exprese myself with enough fluency. I think that this activity brind us as students a tool very important to exprese, and this is very important to our training as proffesionals. And it is important too because miss correct us when we are making a mistake, and the process it is more gratifying because step by step we are making a logical argumental and description about the matter. So, I think that this is the most important of the programme. Also, I can manipulate the most of my difficulty: the grammar and the tences, for example the past continues. Because all the time I try to write in present, and this

Study programme changes

I think that our discipline seems like a perfect one (and really it is very attractive), but in the deep it  has many problems that we can only see in a retrospective analysis, because it is necessary to understand that this analysys has several layers. For example, in this moment I think that we need more subjects that imply more hours to understand our discipline from the practice, especially in the first years. Another one, it would be neccesary to implement more reading from female writers, because the male authors are the majority, in special the obligatory ones, that imply biased learning from our subjects. Even though I must assume that our career is one of the privileged ones compared with the other careers in the faculty of social science. Compared, for example, with anthropology.  The curriculum in general is one of the best, but it is necessary to update it, incidentally because of the struggles of the feminist movement.  Talking about the method, this is very appropria

Personal opinions

What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana? Marijuana is a plant. Marijuana is natural. I think there is no more valid argument than these. I think that marijuana must be legal, with clear rules, so that there is no incorrect use of its properties. I think that its properties have multiple uses, which can be researched to benefit humanity, but that they are stopped by the uncontrollable nature that is when it wants to be controlled. It must be legal for it to be used by those who do not have access because of fear of the law. What is your opinion about “barras bravas”? The "barras bravas" it  is at first sight a simple phenomenon. But it is really complex. They are a social phenomenon, in which there are many vices characteristic of society: for example, it is a closed group with characteristics that unite them, there are also prejudices, violence, and empowerment among themselves. My opinion is that the internal organization should be well focused. It is difficul

What area do you want to specialize in?

I would like to specialize in community psychology. Although I am still not very sure, I would probably take this area because of the infinite capacities it offers to make changes in the social structure. My indecision is because I still do not have the necessary knowledge to decide. I would like to do this specialization outside of Chile, but not outside of Latin America. I still do not know in what university. In the case of not being able to study abroad I would like to do it at the University of Chile, because it is the best, there is no doubt. What made me choose this area is because it carries with it an ethical commitment to those who live in injustices. In addition to being able to visualize a different horizon for the following generations. It is important for my career because it delivers a different value to the common of psychology, what is the clinical and organizational, those that produce a change but at a much more individual level. Finally, it is a very important ar

Post graduate studies

I have not really thought about it yet. But I can force myself to do it.  I think it would make a magister, that is a corde to psychology or history.  History and psychology are two interesting courses that can be merged and can achieve interesting research.  I would like to do this study at the University of Chile. Although I would like to do it abroad. In Argentina for example.  Later I would also love to do a PhD, but it would be after having thought it through very well, mainly due to the resources. It would be very circumstantial. But I would never like to stop studying. I think the main reasons to continue studying would be to continuously immerse yourself in new and interesting knowledge to conquer. In addition, it continues generating spaces to know ourselves as human beings. A lso makes you grow professionally, having other contacts to improve the research that concerns issues relevant to society. Although I would also like to study cinematography, but I think I would d

About my pet

Today I will talk about a pet I have long ago. They gave it to me long ago, on one of my birthdays, to be precise, for the tenth birthday. I still remember it in my hands, that little dog. It was very small, and very wrinkled. I called her Ursula. Is a breed of Pitbull dog. At that time this breed of dog was feared, due to its aggressiveness, but I never believed that it was so. Ursula was raised very affectionately. Currently she is the most affectionate of all and is the most loving of all my pets, and I have four dogs. Once, when Ursula was small, she had an accident, from which she recovered soon. When it happened, I remember that I was very sad and worried about Ursula. I'm really sorry today. Ursula is a little deaf and old, but it's still special to me for many reasons. One of these is that it is the first pet I had, and he always loved me very much. His actions proved it. Today I enjoy of it every day because I am afraid that it will cease to exist. I hope he never lea

My favorite food

My favorite food will always be the healthy one. But sometimes it is very difficult to get healthy food at breaks. So lately my favorite food is not the healthiest. My favorite historical food has been beans granates, what my mom does to be precise, in the summer, the best time of the year. I enjoy them as if it were the end of the world. Besides, the beans are healthy, and when you eat you are soon satisfied. The basil is what gives a better flavor to the beans that are exquisite in themselves The fast food that I like the most is pizza. Pizza with any type of ingredient, I do not care. Eating pizza is like eating a piece of heaven, I mean it. It's a great experience that we should all have constantly. I know it's very unhealthy but it's really worth it. It can also be taken at any time of the day, with anyone. What I like to add the most is extra cheese, olives, purple onion, tomato, and bacon.  I like the crunchy dough, and that the pizza is just coming out
