Blog session N°10!! YUUJUUUU

hello everyone, today is my last blog session in this semester, so I'm really happy for it!! there will be one less subject... but there still are some to finish. So now, I'm in front of the computer trying to fill the blog count, because I have to talk about my experience using this english blog, but I can't do it in 200 words, that's so much for this topic, so I decided to answer two questions that our professor gave us on his blog. Let's start...

What you think about the experience in general
The classes were good, even funny, but the blogs were a little bit wearisome, because of our schedule, most of my classmates and I, have classes in the morning at 08:30 until 10:10 after that we have a free time, most known as "Ventana", it last 6 hours... That's so much for a free time.

What you would like to include in the future
Well, to be honest, our professor gave us the chance to choose 3 topics, and I didn't come... I overslept, but if I had the chance to choose my favorite topics, I'd always choose FOOD!! make up is an interesting topic, but my male classmate are majority...

That's all for today  and for this semester
PS: I did it!! more than 200 words just filling the blog with synonym...

PS: this photo is about a teacher of us... KISSES MR. PARADA

2016 vacations

Hi folks, today I am going to talk about my last holidays, it was in January. I went to Futrono with my family, Futrono is a village near to Valdivia at the XIV region. As you can imagine the travel from Santiago to Valdivia would be too long, so my family and I decided to stop in Chillan, at the VIII region, we stayed there for a week in our house, we visited our relatives and went to the cobquecura beach, there the waves are very strong and that makes it perfect to the surfers.

                                                              (Cobquecura beach)

The week passed and we continued to our last stop, Futrono, there is a lake called Ranco, and that lake is divided in "beachs" (Areas used to swimm). I really love swimming so I passed many hours in the water, I went to many beaches: huequecura beach, San pedro beach, Bahia Coique beach, Caunahue river. but in my opinion, the best "beach" was San pedro, the water was so cristalline, warm, and shallow, The sunsets were one of the most amazing things

                                                           (Huequecura beach, Llifén)

                                                                (San Pedro beach)

                                            

                                                                (Caunahue river)

I'm thinking about the next holidays, for years I had gone to the south, but nowadays I would prefer to go to north, maybe San pedro de atacama, friends of mine said me that is a beautiful place too. 

so what about you? wich one is your favorite place to travel? 

thanks for reading, that's all friends.

"A Subject I've enjoyed studying this semester"

Hello everyone, today I'm going to talk about my favorite subjet in the first semester of my career: Chemistry and Pharmaceutics.

This topic is not easy for me, jajaja because most of the subject are complicated, anyway... When I started the university I was so exited for the classes, and my new professors . My courses until now are six, chemistry, physics, calculus, this english class, "the pharmaceutical chemist and his action" and loboratory's techniques all of them was "given" in my scheadule and  the last one was my favorite at the start. but now I think different, because is too tedious, of course it's interesting see the copper sulfate crystals or the tritation process. Currently I rather prefer "the pharmaceutical chemis and his action" because is more dinamic than the other subjects, is like an "approach" with the career. There we learn about pharmaceutical terminology, we visited different areas like industrial area, and the hospital and clinic area. a few weeks ago, some professional gave us a talk about their jobs, in wich area they work, how much they earn as salary, and things related with the profession. As I said in another post, every day I'm loving my career a little bit more... and more ajaja

that's all folks, I'll see you in a next post, thanks for reeding

I admire...

Well friend, today I'm going to talk about a person that I admire, and is related with my career too (Chemistry and pharmaceutics) . She is Marie Curie, maybe you have heard about she and her invents.

Maria Sklodowska  was born on November 7, 1867, in Warsaw, Poland. Her parents were both teachers, and she was the youngest of five children.

She was the best student at school, then she dicided to continue her studies but Curie could not attend the men-only University of Warsaw. She instead continued her education in Warsaw's "floating university,". In 1891 Marie Curie went to Paris to finish her studies and start her brigthest work...

Curie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and the only woman to win the award in two different fields (physics and chemistry). The first time was in 1903, She won the prestigious honor along with her husband and Henri Becquerel, for their work on radioactivity, and the second time was in 1911 at the field of chemistry, the prize was given because her discovery of radium and polonio.

 I like Marie because she was one of the first women in a "man's field" and of course it was not easy for her. She had to prove that she had the same abilities of a man.

Cartoons

Hi folks, today I'm going to talk about cartoons. why? is easy, because my professor gave me that topic, I hope the next blog will be about food or make up, ajjajaja just kidding professor...

The topic of today is a little bit difficult for me, because I haven't seen cartoons in years!! I remember one of the last cartoons that I saw, the name of it is "Aaahh, Real Monters" the cartoon is focuss on three monsters, ickis (the little monster with big ears, feet and mouth), krumm (the monster without head, so he has to carry his eyes on his hands) and oblina (the female monster, she has the body like a candy cane withe and black) they are students of the "monsters' school". the school is under a landfill and there they learn how to scare humans. I really loved that cartoon because it was different, when I was younger the cartoons was so "pink" for the girls, and "Aaahh Real Monsters" arrived in the correct moment in my TV, it was just... perfect.

A good day in pictures (My day)

Hello everyone today I'm going to show you some pictures of mine of a good day that I like most.

I remember the day when my parents traveled for holidays in "Semana Santa" and I didn't go with them because I had classes, so my first thought when they left home was "I AM FREE" then I planned my weekend, I called some friends that wanted go out to dance too, we went to a bella's pub and after that we went to the disco. the photography was taken by Carlos Canales, the disco's photographer.

when the nigth ends, we went to my home to sleep, as you can imagine I had a lot of beds... at the morning my "blonde" friend thiare left my home and javiera woke up late with me, we were starving, so we call the sushi's delivery, when the moto driver arived I was the  happies woman in the world.

So to finish the perfect "nigth day" we had lunch at my parents' bedroom, we saw movies and talked a lot about our girls' nigth, of course we took a picture for our instagram, (you can follow me if you want @heycvtus...) bye bye friends :*

The music in our life.

Music. Sounds. these are words very common in our life, in fact, we hear sounds before our birth, after that we are in a constant relation with them.

When you are a baby or a toddler the music is a source of serenity, I'm pretty sure that everyone here listened a lullaby. 

When you grow up you can choose what you want to listen. I remember when I was younger I liked the music in english, the rhythm was different and the songs was sticky. I listened to music all day, in class, walking to my home, at the subway, but nowadays I rather prefer "feel" the music, I realize that I love dance even more than listen to music, my mom loves dancing too, so she teach me differents rhythms like salsa and merengue. those are very fun, but at the beginning was a little difficult.

For me the music is a way to eliminate bad energies

Technology!!

I can say that the technology is the third thing I love most , the first two are make up and food, as you can guess... Anyway the technology is very useful for us because allow us to comunicate instantly with another people that may be far away, perphas abroad... On the other hand I have to confess that I use my "smartphone" (the truth is that it is a old one) for everything, If you ask me how often do I use it? i'll answer always.

Why and how to use it?  because it makes my life easier, I use both as enterteinment and to study, for fun I use the camera, the social network as facebook, whatsapp and instagram, for study the smartphone is like a little computer, I can search information, download PPT and see it, even read my favourites book in Adobe Acrobat.

As a summary, technology has arrived to stay...

University: The Big Step

As the title said, the university is one of the most important step that you could take when you are a teenager. You have to choose the correct university and the correct career and that's not easy... I passed through that experience too. I always wanted the University of Chile, because is the best university in each area that develops, but I hadn't decided which career yet.

When I was 12 years old I was pretty sure that I wanted to be a lawyer, but I discarded that idea because I disagreed whit the laws in Chile, on the other hand when I was 16 years old I wanted to be a doctor, my dream was to be a plastic surgeon, but I couldn't make it because of the PSU. All my relatives said to me that I had to try again but I had a different option... I decided to study Chemistry and Pharmaceutics, because I realized that I'd rather prefer chemistry than biology, and my dream to be a doctor was only the pressure of my family. Nowadays I love my career and every day I fall in love with it.

Introducing me

Hi! My name is Catalina Alejandra Torres Montecinos, I was born in June 29th 1997, in the city of Santiago, I am the oldest daugther. My family is compound for my dad, Juan Torres, my mom, Ester Montecinos and my Little sister Ignacia Torres.

I began to study in the primary school at "Rafael Sanhueza Lizardi" when I was 6 years old and I finished my secundary school there too. Nowadays I am studying "Chemistry and Pharmaceutics" at Universidad de Chile. I chose that career because chemistry was my favorite subjet at school and I love the work at laboratories.

Before I started the University i had more hobbies than now, I used to ride a bike with my sister during the evenings and I also used to read a lot of mistery books in days, somethime hours... my favorite author is Kate Morton, currently I had to found different hobbies that go with my current schedule as listening to music and my favorite one, spend my free time in my make up.

That's all... Welcome to my blog
