In my experience learning English at university  is a good esperience although  is a subject very difficult for me. Also is good the use of blogs for understand  various  topic in English and is more entertaining the class in computer room  that to be in class room.

I think that I have to improve more my english, for example even is very difficult for me the  listening activity  in general I do not understand the  conversation  that I listen to class. 

I know that I have to practice more but  I do not like,  from I am children that I do not like, was always  difficult for me, I never remember the word in english and every time  I bad feel only for to be in the class room. I would like that this to exchange because I know that english is very important for my future profesional. 
whe finish the class english at university I have continue learning English in other place.
 
I like to be honest, I not use  free time in English because I dont like english, I know that this to be bad for this I decide do something for exchange. why download games in English  in my Tablet  and every day  I playing  a short time. This help me to learn more English  vocabulary and I make more entertaining learning English. 

activity I do with my little sister , she will also download games for children in English , to learn , always asking me question  things I was not know in English , I hope that it is not as difficult as for my English. 


  Someday I hope to have a good command of English.

My Experience in the field

In psychology my Experience in the field is very good, In generally we must observe listen record and analyze many thing, I make Psychological evaluations to different people and conduced interviews, I like to do to me are interviews with professionals. 

For example last week I did a interviews or “ Focus Groups” with working in public health center called “COSAM” in commune “Lo Espejo” is entertaining to hear how they to contribute to public health and I anger because they are limited by problems in the public administration for example one psychologist have  200 patients .I like to know that they are critical and they have lots vocation. 

In the first experience in the field I was very insecure but  then I relax.

When I did Psychological evaluation in a school  also was a good experience to work directly with children, but I dont like see as adults  put high expectations on the results and that sometimes interferes negatively on children who evaluated. 

In general I really like the field work I have done Psychology. I like interacting  with people I like to talk and reflect on different issues , and that I do in the field. I have never had problems during the fieldwork and are usually a learning and entertains me a lot.

I think that I would like a job with children because I like children, I think that they need much attention, love and protection. I like help to children not have family or some people that protect to this children. Also I can give me a lot of time spend with my family, friends, pet or my hobby, a nice job. I would like to earn a good salary that allows me to live comfortably.
I would like in a open place, maybe I might job in an institution that job with children in open place, for example it do sport or visit home of children.
I think of a job I have a short schedule, although I could job everyday for eight hours not it would uncomfortable .
I imagine a institution with people more polite, nice and likeable, I imagine job a project very important for help to children. I would like this job gives the opportunity to travel for Chile and the world, it will be even better for me.

It would be ideal if this job is job as psychologist and I would like continue with my study a doctorate or study other thing, for example  law,  for protection of  children.

In psychology there are several authors  that talk about culture shock, for example Kohls, he talking    that is a  "the most pronounced reactions of psychological disorientation" that In general this it           present when a person change or meet to a very different culture. 

The cultures shock o in Chile is something that in the last time is taking more force because to Chile now is more attractive to immigrant, before did  not have much culture diversity. for example, many  Colombian people come north of Chile,  in general of black  skin this situation  generate problems     with some  chilean person a day in the in the news the Chilean women argued against Colombian    women, said that they took away their husbands and were traffickers this is an example  cultural       shock that   is occurring in Chile, many times prejudice. 

Colombianos
 

I never experienced a cultural shock in general I relate to people very similar to me and when I met    people from other cultures gives me a lot of curiosity and never experienced a  psycholorical             disorientation I like cultural diversity.

Holidays:

The best holiday I remember are Two years ago we went to the beach called "Pichilemu". we were there 3 day. Only went my mother, my younger sister and me, this trip was the first time we traveled alone. We stayed in a beautiful hostel in the city center.

The days we were the climate went very good was very sunny and warm weather, we went out to eat a couple of times to restaurants the food was very rich I ate a lot of fish fried it went good, we wandered along the beach on horseback. We also enjoyed craft fairs with local produce and saw the get dark. Although this was a very simple trip for me was special because I was with two very important people to me, I relaxed a lot and had a good time. 

Is very important to spend time with family because generally we spend little time, we should seize every moment with them is simpler than many times for being busy with the routine things we ignore and family is an important pillar.

Why did I choose to study psychology ?



I am study psychology, I choose this discipline because I love interacting with people and understand their problems, when I chose this  I was not sure what I wanted, but psychology is a broad discipline and I thought  that I could decide over time. This election wend a good idea, now I like the  legal psychology.

I did know that the work of psychologist is marked by the interaction with others, in group work or in  individual work, delivering tool, enhancing skills, counseling or planning interventions, this allows us to be a contribution in various fields and context, for example, in the  school, in the a company, in a court or hospital. This is one of the things  that I like more, because it allows us to work in different office environments, while that the specialization is important to be a good professional, good to have a wide range of options to choose specialization.

Why University of Chile? I Never made this question to self, every time think that I wanted study in university of Chile, I was not sure of degree but if the university.

I like this type of activity because it is important to talk about these issues, I knew something of the 3Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle, but not always the practices although this can help a lot. What I like to do is reuse, is the fun reuse things , especially give a new use something, for example: when you transform an old man dressed, in a cute mini skirt instead of throwing it away
is important that all be aware that they can reduce their carbon footprint and that is a problem that affects us all, every day, so it is important to teach children from a young age the importance of protecting the environment and they can do actively.
currently we see consequences of our mistakes, problems with the seasons or habitat of various species, and this will be worse in the future.

hello audience.

today I like talk about  the glorious food that sell  in my commune, In Puente Alto,  here food is exquisite and you can eat out quite cheaply. There are various  "picadas" but the I  like is "La Chilenita" is a patisserie and  restaurant, It is a place very old, it have more of 50 years, and the only women work. My grand mother also went  in your youth.

This is a picture of "The Chilenita"



 "the chilenita" have a many range of cake, for example:  chocolate cake, raspberry cake,  orange cake  . Also it have  many  range of bread, but  I like the "Marraqueta" is a good bread.

 I like every  food  that prepare in the chilenita, but I more like is "fast food", I like  "el Italiano",  is good your pizza and "empanadas" accompanied with a good te.

  I love very hot food, and taste. and in the "Chilenita" the food have this caracteristic. 

Also  I recommend "El libano" prepare a good "shawarma"  that  is Arabic food.

In generally I can talk,  that there are some foods that I do not like much, for example the shellfish, why not go to places where prepared.
