Crisis in the education system

Hello, darlings.
The other day I was smoking a cigarette, and I began to listen to my 12-year-old niece talk about what she has been through without being able to attend classes due to the pandemic, but what surprised me was her harsh criticism of the education system and how the government of the day has prioritized industries over her country.
Obviously those were not his words, but beyond what he could or could not say, what is surprising is that at the age of 12 you can already realize how bad it is for us to have an educational system that is precarious and many times completely at the service of capitalism.
And we can see this at any stage of education.
Sincerely, one of the main reasons why I wanted to study at the University of Chile is because it allows us to have critical thinking without instilling a belief or reducing us to a single specialty.
But there are also things that I would change, like for example the fact that they still don't open an area of sexology, I would also like the subjects to be useful from the first year to orient us in diverse areas. 
It would also be important that the construction and modernization of the infrastructure of the various faculties is completed on campus, so that the environment looks cleaner and not full of half-built buildings.
And in relation to the teaching methods, I can only say that if the system from which these methods start is wrong, obviously everything else is too.
Let us fight for a quality and fair education for all.


Xoxo.

Holidays

Since I was very young, I went on vacation to many places with my family, and I always wanted to go on vacation independently from them, so I could have fun with my friends because I would feel freer. This year I achieved that goal and went to the coast for a week in January to the beach in Santo Domingo with a group of my friends from the university. There everything was very fun, we visited many places on the coast, ate many cheese empanadas and every night was a party with music, alcohol, marijuana and faithful friends. They were unforgettable days because the bonds I already had with my friends were strengthened even more with beautiful instances. I still remember how much we laughed and how happy we felt. I remember it with melancholy because with this confinement that we are living today, I miss those instances very much, although with much hope that I will be able to live new moments when this one ends.  The problem is that this will never end.

My experience living the pandemic

Hello, darlings. Analyzing a little bit the situation that the world is living, I wanted to share with you a little bit about what has been my quarantine and my appreciations about it. Honestly, the pandemic came as a blow to my family's head, since for various reasons we have had many economic, infrastructural and health problems, so most of the time there is an atmosphere of tension and sadness in my home. In the academic field, I have not done badly, but I have attended very few classes because of all the situations that are happening in my home. I continue to be optimistic, trying to think that I will get through this semester and the pandemic will be over later so I can see my friends, which is one of the things I miss the most. I don't do much during my days, but when I started the U, I stopped singing and playing instruments, now with everything that's going on, the only space I feel safe in is between the harmonies and chords that flow when I sing and connect with m

Will I continue studying after university?

Hello, darlings. A few days ago, while I was talking to my mother, a question arose as to whether I would like to do something after I finish my degree. And I believe that many professionals on the rise aspire to every day improve even more, so my answer was a resounding yes. As I said before, I would like to travel to Barcelona to do a postgraduate course in sexology. The truth is for very practical reasons; firstly, I would like to do my postgraduate degree in sexology there, because the University of Barcelona has a very good study plan.  Secondly, I'd like very much to experience the European-style parties that I always see in series and movies. And third but not least, they don't ask me to have an advanced level in any language but my native one, so studying would be easier for me, maybe I should learn a little bit of Catalan, but with a little knowledge of English and my native language, I think I could survive for a while. I also think that I would like very much to have
