My favorite series and movies!

Hi!! Today I am going to talk of my likes about series and movies, I should say that last time I haven’t see much movies because free time to me is few but I will talk about series and movies that I recommend. First, is important you should know that I like movies or series of drama, action, comedy in general so if you're looking for romantic series, you're in the wrong place.

My favorite movie is “The Gladiator” a movie directed by Ridley Scott and winner of Oscar to best movie in 2001. I remember the first time that I see the movie was with my father and I liked so much, but when I was growing up I understood better. The movie is in a historic context of the romans and tell the history of Maximo, a general roman that is betrayed for Comodo the new imperator and who killed his family. I will not give spoilers, but the movie is about the vengeance of Maximo who don’t have nothing versus the imperator. Other movies that I recommend are Scott Pilgrim vs the world, Slumdog Millionaire, Supercool and Project X. 

About series, my favorite is Vikings because was the first I saw in Netflix and I love it. Today it has five seasons but I've only seen up to the fourth, the series is based in the Viking mythology and have much battles and kills, It tell the history of Ragnar Lodbrok and his exploits. Other series that I recommend are Stranger Things, Dark, Narcos and Braking Bad.  

Postgraduate studies.

Talking about a postgraduate degree now is difficult because first I want to finish my career that is already difficult and then have a time to calmly analyze my options but doing the exercise of dreaming I would be interested in continuing studying because the world of work is highly competitive and to reach certain positions you have to be different from the rest.

 In the world of architecture, which I am currently studying, I am interested in postgraduate degrees in sustainable architecture and landscaping, I feel that they have something in common and is to achieve a better connection of the natural environment with the built space. In addition, I think that putting emphasis on issues such as the optimization of natural resources and care of the environment will take on greater importance in the long and short term, since as a society we are increasingly concerned about that, this would mean new job opportunities and new experiences related to a topic that I find very interesting.

I still have a lot left but that type of postgraduate call my attention now but maybe in the future my interests change and I end up choosing another postgraduate, or I don't do it, maybe I even win the lottery and it is not necessary to do any of that haha.

My opinion and experience in photography :)

The photography is an area that I like because today everyone can practice and take every type of photos and give them a significance for example, of our families, travels or experience. In our society we live in a “photography world” because the role of applications as Instagram, Facebook, VSCO, etc. are very important in social relations, in these virtual places you can public a photo and have impact in some people very easy. The possibilities to capture moments today is amazing, the technology advance fast and is for that reason anyone can take photos underwater or pics of high-quality from cellphones.

My experience about the photography started when I was 14 years old with my first cellphone, is for that the photos I took are of bad quality, I remember take pics of me riding my bike and of my skills playing Play Station 2. In 2016 I bought a reflex camera, the Canon EOS Rebel T1, with this camera took pics of my vacations, and my explorer experiences. I recognize I didn't get the best out of the camera and for my not use I sold it earlier this year. In the future I expect buy a good camera, but I will put my focus in learn more of photography and use that to take architecture pics.

My favorite photo, Muhammad Ali by Flip Schulke in 1961.

My future job

Like architecture student, when ask me, what is your future and ideal job? The answer should be an architect designer of a great office but to reply that question I will put focus in my children´s recollections and interests.

When I was kid I had a great connection with the world of sports and that always produce interest to me. Is for that reason one of my dreams is create a sport centre, where people can practice sports like swimming, soccer, tennis, volley, etc. It is an ambitious project but I like that, not only in 

administrative topic is fate an opportunity to be a children again. I wish also have schools in the centre to kids, where they can practice and learn not only of sports, also they can have new friends and new opportunities, in a country whit high percent of childhood obesity is important motivate them.

I hope in one point of my life take a chance on that entrepreneurship because I don’t know if I want work in an office watching a computer all my life. I like what I study and of course I want be architect but I think that is example how I can connect my career with my dreams and likes.

why the Simpsons?

The Simpsons are a typical tv show to see on weekends for me, I watch the serie since when I was 10 years old and was the center of the laughts and topic of conversation with my classmates.

Sometimes  I ask to my self why the serie produces a great impact on people of many generations, for example in my father or my nephews, and the only answer that I have is the globalization, that afect the culture pop of many countries, between these Chile. I think how the chilean families are reflected in springfield characters? Because Chilean society increasingly has the same critics, characteristics or concerns that appear in the series. Apart of this, the tv channels have exploited the series so that most of us relate to characters like Lisa, Homer, Bart or Marge.

Putting all that aside, I like the serie and one of my favorite chapters is when Bart sell his soul, he said to his friend Milhouse that the soul is a lie, Milhouse reply “All religions have a soul, why would they lie?”, after that the scene changes with the priest counting money.

Today I tell to you one of my best experience in holidays, I hope you enjoy it.

This happened in 2016, when I was in my last year of college And for that reason I was also getting ready for PSU. Two months before that I received an invitation from my sister to go with her boyfriend an my nephew to Menoza, Argentina, in the first moment I didn´t want to go because I was focused in study, but I didn't resist and I went with a pair of books.

To go we crossed the mountain range of Los Andes and in 5 horas were there. In Argentina I ate many of delicious “asados” and I take a lot “mate”. We visited historic places of mendozas like the monument to San Martín, thermal baths of cacheuta, the aquarium with a turtle almost 90 years old.

But one of my best moments was visit the stadium “las Malvinas” to watch a game of Godoy Cruz, the local team, there I felt the passion for the soccer of the argentine fans. I hope go back again and visit other stadiums like the “bombonera”of Boca Jrs.

REFLECTION TIME - Studying in Santiago

Dear readers,

I want to tell you about my experience studyng in the capital of Chile, Santiago. First is necesary say I from Los Andes, a small town in the  north of Santiago, and this year I started living  with a friend in Santiago because I decided study in the University of Chile. My experience has been good but not easy, I have learned to be more independent and accountable. On the other side I met new friends and places very different than I was used to. The other topic is the transport, I dont like to use the subway in hour peak, that is the worst because too many people travel, I don't recommend it.
