Post 10: Some Reflections

Today I will talk about some reflections of this year. I think that, for me, and probably for all those who have not been at university before, it is a very big change, the school is totally different, for example, at the school even if you don't strive too hard you had good grades, instead at the university you can spend all night doing a project and even so not be among the best. I think that it has been the most complicated for me, in the other subjects I have had good grades, but  taller has been the hardest, sometimes I don't understand what my teachers want. Maybe my greatest achievement has been to have more tolerance to frustration, before I had very little patience and I would get frustrated very quickly, but now, at the time of the corrections, they make you change the projects many times, and that has helped me a lot. Also throughout this semester I have learned to open my mind and have more imagination with the abstract projects, my teachers give us a lot of abstr...

Post 9: Food

Today I will talk about food, in specific about my favorite food, well first of all, my favorite is chinese food and, although it is considered fast food, the hot dog, but I eat the hot dog only with avocado and mayonnaise, I don't like the tomato, always people say that is weird but I have never liked it, probably because I did not eat it when I was a child. And my favorite restaurant of chinese food is one called Bello Oriente, it is close to my house and the food is very good there, I always eat mongolian meat or chicken with dragon tooth, and I love the wantan . On the other hand, about the food prepared at home, I like the spaghetti, and usually I bring lunch from my home to the university, normally it is basic and quick food, for example, rice, mashed potatoes, noodles, etc. I don't like cooking, in fact, I don't know cooking, the only thing I know how to cook is eggs and my mom has tried to teach me how to cook but I don't like and I never have a lot of desir...

Post 8: A subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

Imagen
Is not difficult for me to choose a favorite subject, because we don't have many subjects in the first semester, although I like Mathematics a lot, I prefer Geometry. The first content that we saw in Geometry was geometric transformation and it was easy for me, because I had seen it at school, then we saw First category homology (conical) and Second category homology, these contents were a little complicated for me at first because I had never seen them, but after many classes I understood all the material and in the test I did very well, although I understood everything, I prefer conical exercises, because you just have to follow the same steps continuously, and for me is easy to memorize them. Now we are seeing Third category homology and it has not been complicated for me, but I still don't have any exercise with grade. I think that the first thing for you to like a subject is to have a good teacher, and my teacher is so good, she is very patient and she explains very ...

Post 7: Career-Related Website

Imagen
Today I will talk about a website that I use for my career, which is Pinterest: www.pinterest.com but I prefer using the phone mobile version. Pinterest is a good application to search for any kind of things, for example, recipes, drawings, animals, etc. The app has a lot of images on thematic personal pinboards and you can pick and save them, leave a like mark or even it directs you to a web page with more detailed information. I like it because is a very varied application and you can find everything you need. Before I used to use Pinterest to search drawings, paintings or even to look for ideas to paint my nails, but now I usually use it to find ideas for my projects and analysis, and I think that it is very useful, because it has a lot of things about architecture. Probably in the future I will create a pinboard with my university projects. I highly recommend this app for not only architecture projects but also any other type of art.

Post 6: Video Games

Today I will talk about my favorite video game, The Sims 3. I don't remember exactly when I started to play it but probably it was five or six years ago. Usually I don't play video games but The Sims is very fun for me, I can play for hours and I don't get bored. I met this video game for a friend, she explained to me what the game was about and I thought it would be interesting, so I asked for it as a birthday gift and my mom gave it to me. At that time I played often, probably every day and I loved it mainly because I could build my own house. But after a while I stoped playing it, I don't remember why, probably because the game bored me. Altought some months ago I played again, and I would like to still playing but I don't have time with the university. I never played The Sims 1 or The Sims 2, I only have The Sims 3 and some expansions, but some time ago I played The Sims 4 and although is a good game and it has better graphics I prefer The Sims 3.

Post 5: A Photograph I like

Imagen
Hi, today I will talk about a photograph that I like, I did not know which one to choose and finally I choose one of my dog, Princesa. I took this photograph last summer on the beach. Usually she does not like photographs and it's so hard to take it, in fact, she never looks at the camena, but I really like this because, althought she is in profile, is a very nice photograph. She is a part of my family and she always travel with us, that is why I have many photographs of her on the beach, and I love all of them but I think that it is special because she looks like she is enjoying a lot see the sea and feel the sea breeze, she looks happy. Probably because she loves the beach, when I say "we go to the beach?" she moves her head and runs everywhere, she is very happy on the beach.

Post 4: Tv shows and Series

Imagen
Today I will talk about my favorite serie, How I Met Your Mother, I saw this serie last year on Netflix and I really liked it, this serie is really funny and it keeps you interested until the end. The series begins with Ted Mosby telling his children how he met his mother, but this history is so long because Ted talking about his friends and all his girlfriends before he met his children's mother. I love this serie but I did not like the end, I expected something different, although a while ago I discovered that the serie has an alternative ending and I prefer that end, personally, it is much better. I would like to see it again but now it is not available in Netflix, probably when I have time I will search it in another page. Also, in the vacations I would like to see The Paper House, but first I will finish watching Friends.

Post 3: My favorite piece of technology

Imagen
I will talk about my favorite piece of technology, I chose something that I use everyday, my cell phone. I got my first cell phone when I was in the school although I don't remember exactly how old I was, but I have my actual cell phone since four years ago, it is very old but it still works well. I use it almost all day for everything, in fact, I like it for that reason, the cell phone is a piece of technology that you can use to evertyhing, for example, make phone calls, take photographs, search information on internet, see the time and date, etc, the cell phone make our life easier and that it is why it is so important today, I think that I can live without one, probably it would be difficult beacause I am use it everyday, but not impossible.

Post 2: Why did I chose this career

When I was a child I had not a dream job, but when I grew up I thought to study Art although after a while I discarded this idea, finally before finishing high school I was between two options, Psychology and Architecture, I liked both although they are so different. Finally I decided Architecture because this career has the things that I really like, drawing and maths, besides I think that it is a very complete career, and at this moment I am studying Architecture at the Universidad de Chile. Until now I really like the university and the career, although sometimes it is so hard and exhausting, I have a lot of projects and a lot of study. I am not sure what I would like in the future, but probably I would like to work in another country and in personal projects.

Practice Post

The personal information on websites is someting we should be careful, because you don't know who see it. Sometimes, some people publish a lot of personal information, like the address, family names and other things. This can bring many consequences, because unknown people can see everything about you, and this is very dangerous.
