Imagine.


Animals have always been my passion. Once, I went to Africa and from that moment that I can not concentrate on anything more than the animal kingdom. In all these years I have not ceased to amaze me with each of its members, my favorites are those from the cat family, tigers, cougars, bobcats of all species, and even the most domesticated or wild cats are fascinating to me. I certainly think that in a job zoo keeper would help all the knowledge I have accumulated over the years could eventually search, along with staff of the park to create an open center to gather it all cats on the planet and thus keep them protected from slaughter and captivity, in a space that perfectly simulates a natural habitat. Along with this, the scientific research on feline family can grow substantially if you have the possibility to study them so closely. Returning, I think today, my dream job of caring for feline park should be located in the heart of the African savannah, along the glorious animal kingdom which all human beings, whether they like it or not, we descend.

Road to San Pedro


The most memorable trip occurred four years ago, in January 2006. I met with "Babar" and introduced me to his two uni friends; Felipe and Edgar. The four began the trip the first days of February, bound for San Pedro de Atacama. Our first stop was La Serena. Here, things got complicated. The atmosphere of the city summer spread to my friends, who were gradually forgetting the great plan.
Fortunately convinced. After that we crossed 300 km of barren desert without water!. We stopped road to Tal Tal, we slept in Pan de Azucar, then the Pampa del Indio, which darker place ... the dark of night.
A very good friend, The Kule we stayed in Calama, a city hostile in nature. The next step, inevitably was San Pedro.
At that point we decide to go to the geysers of Geysers, a wonderful place. The sunrise here is nothing unique.
The return trip was more rapid, sustained, without money and with the responsibility to stand together in a car every day more heinous.

In general, the trip did not last long but it was intense, with many experiences. She did this entertaining, no breaks, no time to be bored, no time to stop laughing, of just talking about the absurd, the absurdity, among absurd.

I want to be harsh



This picture represent the first memory, the first image when think in Chile and his most recent football history. In the world cup of 1998, in French, found the roads of this with mi history. Our country was punished in 1989, and suspended for two world cup. For this reason the year 1998 was special, was the first time that I saw to Chile in a world cup.
This picture portrays the moment of second gol for Chile versus Italy, when they were tied at one. Resagards, this was a first for both. Nobody can imagine what we felt our conutry, his people in this moment. The narration of Pedro Carcuro stay in the collective unconscious; "Marcelo Salas unforgiving, climbed into the sky, in a magical staircase, beat the Italians big boys... ascended to heaven Marcelo Salas."
Today is different, there are others players, another reality, but 12 years passed since the last performance, I`ve waited, all have expected. There is only believe, and still fell with something as simple like the Football.

Stereotypes or social categories?

In this Faculty there different stereotypes, according to I believe, are configured in relation to the social origin. Namely, according to the inheritance economic, social, and cultural. However, as this are a Faculty on social sciences, this feature is relative. In my view, exist a most of students that try hide this feature owing to the same social awareness that led them to choose a career in this Faculty. About this stereotypes, some people call "abajismo", doing the parallel with the "arribismo".
I think that, in my Faculty nott only is there this type of people. Also exist students coming from middle class , and his stereotypes are not characterizable as abajista.
Exist other type of sterotypes, are those students that involved in politics, or try act together forming groups that help them achieve what they want, generaly, a more just society, through the fight for a fairer education.
Finally, I believe that too exist a big gruop of students that noy remain the previous categories. Are students that have not common features, for this are difficult find stereotypes.
I think that cant classify in some sterotypes, believe that have belonged the last bog group, Students who have little in common with each other. Perhaps it would necessary set up others criteria of classification, others stereotypes.

Hobbies? What are you talking about?

No I have a great hobby, but could speak about what I like best.
I had the first hobby is soccer since childhood that I hung out with my friends in the passage to play the "Pichanga", now it's the same with classmates and neighbors.
Sometimes I get to read, but the academic requirements do not always provide an entertaining read, so reading as a hobby is often left for the summer.
I do not know if I could be considered a hobby, but like a lot of old friends get together to talk about whatever. Soil also leave time to see a good movie, it's always a good excuse to jump in bed and rest, doing nothing but watching TV.
In general, I can say I am not a very constant in my preferences when it comes to fun, I prefer to discover things to do as they handle the time. Anyway, I accept that I'd like to do something that excites me as much as those who do have a hobby that has remained over time.
For me, talk about hobbies is talking about everything, and as they say, talk about everything that is anything ... mmmm I think I confused the term hobbies.

2035: Next earthquake. Where will you be?

First of all, I accept that I regret not having lived through the earthquake.
He traveled with a friend by the mythical lands of chiloe when I come across a little town called Queilén. In the campsite we met people in the same situation with which we share some wine. If I remember correctly, was about three o'clock in the morning when the cold sent me to bed. While I and my friend slept in the tent, campers awoke us our friends very shit, telling us "Hey, you have to get up, there was an earthquake and say that the sea is entering. We have to go to a high" The truth? We could not believe, did not want to believe, but we get up. We spent all night without anything happening, worse! tools showing no fear of people. Then came the learning of the real dimension of the issue.I think that earthquakes put us in a state of maximum alert, forcing us to feel human, no more than that. I lost it, and will be up to twenty-five years.
