Hello everyone! Today I’m going to talk about the things that I want to change in my study program. I’m a fourth year Geography student and despite of I’m already finishing my subjects in bachelor’s degree I want that the next generation of geography students have a better study program to be better professionals. On the first place I have to say that Geography has already modified its curriculum last year but I Still think that we have some problems with the order of the subjects. For example: I think that the new curriculum is okay but we still have problems with the infrastructure because the faculty doesn’t give enough money to finance the different activities that we have along our career as geographers. Sometimes the economy direction of the faculty says that they can’t spend so much money on our field trips and we have to put money of our own count. We also have problems with our laboratory classes because we don’t have enough computers to work in our geographic information...

SUMMER HOLIDAYS

Hi everyone! Today I'm going to talk about my summer vacations. I would like to visit Punta arenas this year. In fact, a friend invited me to his home for this summer. He lives in Punta arenas since 2013 because his father moved there to get work. I always travel to the North of Chile because is my favorite place but this year I want to change and scape of the warm summer. I’ll take a fly from Santiago to Punta Arenas. There, I want to meet Tierra del Fuego and the Magallanes Channel. My friend will be doing his professional practice while I stay there so I’m going to travel alone. I’m planning met Paines Tower and doing trekking there. Also, I would like to take a boat and meet Tierra del Fuego. I think is a very interesting place for all its history, for all the people of Selk’nam culture that  was killed by the colonizers. The Selk’nam culture was extermined , even some colonizers taked selk’nam people and send them to Europe to civilized them. That’s the story of Jimmy ...

Camping

Hi! today I'm going to talk about camping. I don't like outdoor life very much because I enjoy being busy all the time. I don't like the places withouth noise or movement. My mind is always busy with a lot of things that I think with different situations that I have to live. For example: I am militant of the communist party of Chile and I'm always interested in take all the history of the fight for social justice in Chile. I can't be one second withouth thinking about it. That is why I don't like camping (I'm never relaxed). But if  I would have to invent some trip I would like to camping in the North of Chile. I like the coast and the dessert meanly because it has so much history on it. The North of Chile has very singular places like the dessert, the plateau and my favorite:  their cities. The coastal cities in the north of chile have always been forgotten by the government and the poverty has been the engine of their growth. Chile has its large mining...

postgraduate studies

Hi! Today I'm going to talk about what I Would like to study after I finished my carreer con geography. I always wanted to study public administration and I don't know why I finished postulating to geography on my first option. Whatever, I always wanted to have a job on public services and be employed by State. I don't expect to earn much money because we all know that employment in the public sector is underpaid. In spite that I'm Still interested in contributing with my Work in some ministry of the state. Since I started studying geography I have been ver y interested in urbanism and the access to housing because both aré problems that we haven't solved  in Chile. For example, we Still have precarios settlements and camps and as the state has not taken care of that problem different foundations have assumed this responsability making us believe that this is solved by charitable actions and not by a state policy that guarantee the right to a decent housing. Those a...

animal

Hi! Today I'm going to talk about my favorite animales: cats Cats aré the best: they aren't nostalgia or dirty and are usually independent pets. Unlike dogs, cats are quiet and usually break less things that dogs. Also, I things that cats are revolutionary pets because all the best marxists in the world history have had a cat as a pet. For example, Lenin had a cat and he Was able to defeat the tsarist monarchy and gave the first experience of a communist society to the world. Che guevara also had a cat and is one of the most famous revolutionaries of latin america   with Fidel castro. They opened the possibility of creating a socialist society in latin america! Another example to hate dogs and love cats is that dogs are allies of the bourgeois state and capital. Dogs are enemies of the people because they always attack and repress social movements and are part of the repressive forces of the state like carabineros of Chile and the army (I don't think a cat does that).  I...

My favorite serie

Hi everyone! Today I'm going to tal about my favorite serie: friends I think friends is the best serie of all time, I saw it at least five times and yesterday I finished to watch it again. The story is about a group of 6 friends who share all their experiences and different situations of their lifes in a coffee shop called central perk. My favorite character is phoebe. She's a very bad singer who plays songs with her guitar at central perk  coffee shop. Sometimes she invents songs with situations to bother her friends. Her best song is called "smelly cat". In a chapter she  is contracted by a recording studio to record the song in a professional way but the producer  modifie her voice. When she shows the video of the song to her friends she don't realize that her voice was modified. She makes me laugh in every chapter. My second favorite character is Joey. He's an actor that never went to the university and  learned to act by his own count. In the serie is...

My future job

Imagen
I’m a 4th year geography student and I’m not very sure about what do I want to do when I will be graduated as a geographer. I’ve always felt attracted to works that are linked  with urbanism and some ideas to generate a better territorial management to generate a better life quality for people. Those works are generally indoors works like ministry or some other public office. I’ve always felt a deep commitment with public service because I think that is our labor change the way that the state currently works and try to change it from each discipline is something that makes me have hope in a better country. I love my career and I really want to continue studyng to deliver my knowledge as a geographer to the service of a better country. About the salary the truth is that I don’t expect to win so much money but I know that I’ll never have problems with money as long as I work  as a geographer.  Also I would like to study public administration as a second carreer. I know it’...
