Social Issues

Image
 Hi! Today I will talk about social issues, specificaly about gender inequality. On english class we saw Emma Watson's speech about gender equality, what she talked makes sense to me, I really don't understand when people (men or women) say that men are better or have more rights than women. But I have to say that sometimes it can be the other way around even if is not that common it still happens.  I grew up listening to this kind of stuff but that did not stopped me from growing my own way of thinking. I like sports specially football so there were always people who looked down on me just because I am a woman.  There are a lot of problems that come along with gender inequality, I will name some but there are more: domestic or any type of violence, salary diferences, predetermined colours, and even prejudices about sexual preferences. I heard somewhere the term of ''toxic masculinity'', it refers to the conduct some men have, they act like some kind of primitiv...

My future job

Hello! Today I will talk about what kind of job I would like to have in the future. As I am currently studying Chemistry the options are related to the industry of chemical synthesis that are needed by humans, old ones or new ones (research).  I would like to have a job that's indoors, and if possible I would like to travel because of it. I like more than one mayor but I think I will decide when the time comes. Most of the jobs related to chemistry need to be indoors, especially the ones related to research which are in a laboratory. Even though I have thought about it a lot I don’t know what my future job will be, I think I will know the answer when I decide my mayor and I do my practice. I like what I’m studying so in whatever I work I will do my best the point is that it has to be related to chemistry.  Like I said before, I’m studying chemistry but I plan to change to Pharmaceutical chemistry, so the job offers will be different..... everything depends, I will just say tha...

Pandora :)

 Hi there! Today I will talk about my pet, she is a rabbit and her name is Pandora. She is a mix of two breeds: new zealand white and californian. I got her when I turned eighteen, she was the size of my palm.... so small!. I rescued her from a place that sells rabbits for their meat, I was heartbroken when I realized that there were so many rabbits that I could not help :( , but it wouldn't be life if I had a lot of bunnies but couldn't take good care of them. At that time I was in my last year of school, so when no one could watch her in my house, I took her to my school, my friends helped me watched her but I had to be careful so that the teachers did not notice her. This year she turned five years old and she's still playful as always. I have been staying in my Dad's house with my sister and stepmother for a couple of months now, here we have more space and I can let her play around in the evenings when is not too hot. The heat is not good for bunnies, so her house ...

Profession...

Hi! Todday I will talk about my profession. Right now I'm studying Chemistry and plan to change to Pharmaceutical Chemistry.  Since I was in school I have liked physical education, chemistry, maths and biology. My first preference was and is sports, unfortunately because of some problems when I was younger I wasn’t able to develop myself in this field, so as I grew I thought in every possible career that could be related to those subjects and in a way I would end up helping people too, so after thinking I got to the conclusion of a career related to chemistry.  I heard it on a series :‘’If you have two things you like in life, work on your second option and make the first one your hobby, that way you will never hate or get tired of the thing you like the most’’ I don’t know if it works for everyone but it does for me, in my head makes sense and that is what I’m doing now because I'm part of two faculty sports teams as a hobby. One positive aspect is that through this professio...

Best holiday so far...

Hi! I was asked to choose the best holiday I had, it’s not easy…..but as I like nature I’ll pick the one I spent with my father, little sister and stepmother back in February of 2016. We organized a car trip to the south of Chile and Argentina. It lasted thirteen days and the first stop was Valdivia, we walked around the city and stayed for one day. Because the road was not continuous we had to ride like three ferryboats to keep going. The stop that I liked the most was when we stayed for two days in the Pumalin Douglas Tompkins National Park, we arrived at night so there was nobody at the entrance, we entered anyway because there was a notice that said we could. As it was dark it took us a lot of time to find a place to set our tent, actually there was no available space but on our way out we met a german couple that was staying there that told us they didn’t use tents and were sleeping in their car, so they allowed us to stay in that space with them. Untill that time I had never spok...

Country I would like to visit

Image
 Hi there, today I will tell you guys about one of the countries I will definitely visit someday. I'm talking about New Zealand, this country is a combination of two big islands (north and south) plus a big amount of smaller ones , and it's located in Oceania. It's capital is Wellington city (located in the north island), but a fact that caught my attention is that Auckland city has more population than the capital itself, fascinating isn't it? The reason why I would like to go there is because I'm someone who likes outdoor activities, animals and places with more nature than people (by the way is not like I dislike the city don't get me wrong, I just prefer clean air and green enviroments), so I will like to visit the Fiordland National Park which is the largest one among all, it has many different hiking trails and you can kayak in the Milford Sound Fiord where you can see aquatic animals like the dolphin and you can also watch the waterfalls that are located ...
