Here we are, the 2014 is nearly over and it has been a really hard year for me. The 2013, I prepared to join university, I went to a preuniversitario to do a good PSU (selection test, necessary to enroll a good university). After all that effort, I reached my goal, I joined dentistry at Universidad de Chile. With a big sacrifice of my time, I managed to pass all my subjects. I have the ability of learning quickly, but this year, I have studied as ever in my life. Some night I don’t sleep, and most of the days, I sleep 4 hours at the most. But all this work has a reward. This year I have met some nice people that have filled my days with laughs and fun. I have learnt a lot, I feel wiser, more free and happier as never before.

But I’m only a man, sometimes I feel really tired and used to think too much about my problems. In a low mood, I analyze every bad moment in my life and I feel worse. At the beginning of this year, my parent got separated, after a big conflict and my girlfriend went away to finish her degree at Puerto Montt. 2 blows in less than one week. I were bad for almost 2 months.

This post looks really depressing until today jajaja. The story isn’t so bad how it looks. My girlfriend returned to Santiago and we are together again. My parents still separated, but I don’t feel bad about this, because they used to argue a lot lately. At the university, I feel a bit stressed, but it’s my fault, because I didn’t realize how much things I must read.

If I pass English level 4, this will be my last post. If it doesn’t happen, we will be together again, I writing, and you reading this. Good bye.

My Dream Job

Hello everyone, today I will talk to you about something that I will spend all my time in a relatively short time; my future profession, dentistry.

When I was a kid, I was always interested in science and people. Like a way to connect my two passions, I was in love with biotechnology. With the technology of the recombinant protein, human beings can play to be god and manipulate the DNA of the living things to gain the products that they want. But as time goes on, I realized that biotechnology wasn’t as good as I thought, and to get the wished results, scientist must sacrifice things that I am not willing to do. For this, I chose another path to reach my goal. So I began to love dentistry.

Dentistry is a really demanding job, but I don’t care. I like to travel, and the idea that I will be stuck in a dental box 8 hours a day, 5 days in a week is terrible for me, but the expectation of helping people and having money to travel is strong enough to inspire me to carry on.

I think that I can juggle dentistry and my desire to go all over the world, and for that, I will search balance. I will work enough time to have money to travel. It’s a perfect plan.

Things that you want to do before you die

Some people live a quiet life, waiting for the future brings them better and exciting experiences. But they never think if they have no future. For that, in this post, I will talk you about things that I want to do before I die.

With the premise “you only live once”, the first thing that I want to do is travel. I know, travel is a genetic response, but I want to travel around the world. I want to see the landscapes that amaze me in the films and documentaries.  I would go to New Zealand to see the locations that was occupied to record The Lord of the Ring series.

After to travel around the world and see with my own eyes the landscapes that I only saw by the TV, I want to practice all the extreme sports that I have always wanted. I would want to do bungee jumping and parachuting. Also I want to swim with sharks and see the animal of the African Savanna, Lions and Gazelles.

Like an unsuccessful dream, before I die, I want to learn to play guitar, saxophone and piano. I know, it isn’t complicated, but I’m a dumb musician, I can play percussion only L.

It is my final target. If I will die in less than 1 year, I want to go to Rio de Janeiro, to see the Carnival. I play drums in a Batucada, and we are Samba players. Rio’s carnival is the biggest samba contest in the world, and before I die, I want to see GRES Unidos da Tijuca by myself.

Know my Country

I'm not a superficial patriot, but as a child love to his mother, I love Chile. My country is an awesome place to live and to visit. Not in every country do you found this variety of weather and landscapes.

 Chile has many unmissable places to visit. From the north to the south, Chile can really surprise you. In the north of Chile, we have the driest desert of the world, the Atacama's desert, and inside that desert, is located the moon valley, a landscape completely similar to the moon's surface, and in the same place we have the El Tatio's Geysers, a field full of volcanic fumarole that spit very hot water. Going to the south, Chile has awesome forests and natural shrines, with active volcanos and peacefull lakes where you can see the sky reflected in its waters. travelling to the south, we can find the old forts that saw the fights of spanishes against the mapuches and later, the cruel wars of the reconquest, in addition to the mistical island and incredible mountains.
  

 But not only the landscapes are great in Chile, the food is awesome too. with a armonic mix of native and spanish food, Chile has an unique gastronomy. with groceries like "cazuela", "curanto", "caucato", in Chile you will become fat in a very short time. the people is really friendly and generous. You are welcome, if you came.  

   

A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT

Hello there, today I want to talk you about travels. For me, travels are incomparable experiences. I Love travel. And my biggest dream is that someday, I will go to India. 

I love India, because it’s a country full of mysticism and wisdom. India is part of south Asia, and in this place ,with a great history, saw the origin of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism, four of the more important religions of the world.

India has a great cultural value, and its history is really interesting. If I go someday, I will visit all the temples that I can.  I want to see the taj mahal, the golden temple of Harmandir Sahib, etc. I want to see the nature too. I want to see tigers and its rain-forest with all the endemics animals.

With all that, I want to see the memorial museum of Gandhi and visit the sacred places of the Buddhism that are located in India.

I like India for travelling, but not to stay. It’s a completely different place and the society isn’t opened to the foreigner. It’s very difficult to adapt to this.

good bye, it's all for a while. (166 words)

Getting around

Every day, I wake up at 6:30 and I take 1 hour to get ready to go out of my house. At this point, I must choose the way to get to the university. I can take a bus that move close to the medicine faculty or I can take the subway in Vespucio Norte station and get out in Cerro Blanco station. With these two options, I must walk a bit, and it takes the same time. Since I go out from my house until I arrive to the university, I spend 35 minutes.

Sometimes this is a difficult choice, because when I’m late, I don’t know what to do. I have 2 options that take the same time, but the bus isn’t very reliable, and the subway is always crowded. I don’t live far away from the university, and I can go cycling here, but it isn’t a safe way. The car drivers are aggressive and I’m not clever on a bike.
