My hobbies

Hi there! Today I'm going to talk about my hobbies

Since I was a little kid, i started to play music; first, I learned to play flute in the school, few years later I joined to a guitar course for two years, and finally i started to learn to play the piano. I really like to play the musical instruments, sometimes i play them for hours, I can't notice how time goes by, I just follow the music, it makes me feel nice, playing music gives me a little moment of relaxation. If i'm not playing an instrument, I'm listening to music, I really like that, to sit down, put on my headphones and listen. Everyday I walk with music, it gives me energy.

Tiro de Gracia, a band that I like and listen almost every day

Other thing that I really like doing is swimming. I spend a lot of my time in the

pool, at least 3 days a week. It would sound ridiculous, but sometimes I watch Michael Phelps's videos, it is an inspiration before I'm going to swim. I enjoy being in the water, it's an entertaining activity and it helps me to eat a lot, and not have the associated problems of that.

A few months ago, I started to watch the first season of a Tv series called "Mr.Robot", I finished it, but I couldn't start the second season, I have not enough time to do it.
                                                                         

A country i'd like to visit: Nepal

A country i'd like to visit is Nepal, Why do i choose this? I'd like to have in a near future a introspection trip, to grow like a person, and have a meditation time far from the stress of the city and the life that i'm living right now, just thinking about the spirit and the natural elements, how we can connect with what is surrounding us, learn the teachings of the Hinduism. Buda (Siddhharta Gautama) was born in Nepal, so the Hinduism culture is something every habitant know. Also i'd like to visit the Himalaya, i like the mountain, the snow, be outside and contemplate the landscape; meet the Sherpas, local people who dedicate their lives to climb the mountains, they know their land very well, and they're been prepared from generations ago. 

I'd like to live like them for a few weeks, see their customs, it is so much different from ours, why they live like this? I'd like to answer this question and many others visiting them.

The best concert ever: Los Tetas at Caupolican

The concert take place in December, the last year in the Caupolican, which is a popular theatre in Santiago. I saw "Los Tetas" there; is a funk band from Chile, they are playing funky music since 1994; after a separation in 2004, they joined again in 2011. I clearly remember the atmosphere during the concert:  the people was dancing to the rhythm, the soft lights helped to maintain a nice movement between the crowd, also, there was not so much people, so i had my own piece of the dance floor; i could dance and sing all the songs; i know the lyrics of all this songs and i hace all of their albums, i could jump when the rhythm speed up and  change into a powerful rock riff. I remember the naturally fragranced and dense fog over the stage, it smells like a plant or something like that, i cannot remember the exact smell. I could share this experience with my brother, so the moment was more exciting and epic.

Monday Blogs: My experience about it

Since i joined to the english class, i started to write blogs all weeks, about different subjects like the places i would like to visit or my favorite music, etc. I think about this experience in general that is a great way to improve your english in varied aspects of the life, because you have to write your thoughts in the foreign language. I enjoyed so much doing it, i feel that i developed a little bit my skills in english, at least the basic tools to keep a conversation in this language, and express what i feel and my opinions with other people around the world.

All the subjects that i write about were good, i would like to include in the future more feedback with the teacher in relation to the grammar, because i think that is an important aspect of speak and write english, and if you do it wrong you couldn't communicate properly with other people. Other important aspect of the blogs is that you can read other posts and comment it, so you can interact with the classmates and with the teacher, making possible the communication between the people. I would like to write about the experience so far in the university.

I enjoy studying "Destrezas"

The University is very hard when you cannot organize your time to do all the things that you have to, and the others that you LIKE to do: sports, hang out with friends, etc. I have subjects that i hate, like chemistry (but i have to studying it), and other that i enjoy to study when i have to, or just to learn about my future profession: "Destrezas".

This subject is about different thing that you have to know if you are a dentistry, (and it is a subject focused in the future career), like oral cavity anatomy, tooth care, a little bit of public health, the inputs that you will use, and other logic things. I enjoy studying it because you can know about the things that you will use almost all your life and it prepares you to use that. Maybe the other subjects allows you to know important things too; if you don't know anatomy, you will damage your patient or if you don't know physics you will not do a properly repair the jaw from your patient; i mean all the subjects are fundamental to the exercise of the profession, but "Destrezas" take you closer to what you relly will be your profession.

Best Places to visit in the south of Chile: Malalcahuello

Lonquimay volcano

The south of chile is one of my favorite places to visit during the holidays, specially the ninth region (because is the place where i'm living) because is the most beautiful places due his wild life and millenary trees. I have the oportunity of visit this place and, trust me, it's a amazing experience.
Located in the ninth region is Malalcahuello, a small town that welcome hundreds of people in the winter and summer season, and is known because fifteen kilometers to the north is the Lonquimay

volcano, an active one, and you can climb to the peak of the volcano. In the winter, all the ground get covered with snow, and the place turns to white. You can practice all kind of winter sports or just have some fun in the snow with family and friends. Other thing you can do in the park, which is named National Park Conguillio, is walk around the trails and see all the wild life that live there. In the night you can visit the hot springs and have a relaxing time with your partners while the snow is falling outside, with some snacks and drinks.

Career related website: U-Cursos

One thing that you had to check all day when you study in the University of Chile is U-Cursos. Is a website when all the academic stuff is: marks, exam information, study material, etc. Also it's the website you use when you have to talk to a teacher. I visit U-Cursos almost everyday, when i have to study for an exam, i visit U-Cursos to know the items that you have to know for the exam. You can personalize it, choosing the stuff that you like to see everytime that you visit; there is a feature called "Comunidades", there is publicated all the news and non-academic things like music events or discussions. Also has a forum that allows you to interact with students from other faculties and share whit them all kind of stuff, even sell and buy things you don't use anymore. I have to say that i don't like U-Cursos because it reminds me that i don't have much time to spend doing other things like go to cinema or to a concert. Whatever, the link is www.u-cursos.cl
