Changes to my study programme

Imagen
Hi,  When I decided to apply to university, I was full of uncertainty about my career choice. I was faced with an endless list of academic courses, many of which I was completely unfamiliar with. I had no idea what they meant or how they related to my future. My first year at university turned out to be a journey back to the basics of architecture. The first subjects like geometry, mathematics, history and workshop 1. Everything was done by hand, which was a challenge for me as I had been told, but lied to, that it didn't matter if I drew badly, which it did. As I entered my second year, the degree began to take shape. I started exploring more specific subjects and working on the computer with programmers, which was also a big challenge in my academic journey. The workload has been very heavy throughout the course, but I think it's also my fault that I don't know how to organise myself. There are times when I feel like I'm leaving one task to start another, like a never...

Time travel to the past

  Choosing between travelling to the past or to the future poses an intriguing dilemma. For me, it is a difficult choice, and I can see strong reasons in both directions. However, at this point in time, I would lean towards travelling to the past. The main reason for this choice is my difficulty in visualizing myself in the future. For some reason, I cannot project a "me" into the future in a clear way. This makes the option of travelling to the future somewhat abstract and challenging for me at the moment.   Travelling to the past, on the other hand, is attractive because it would allow me to see my former self from a different perspective. It would be an opportunity to learn lessons I may not have valued at the time. In addition, I could resolve unfinished business with old friends and perhaps find closure in some areas of my life.   However, I want to emphasize that I don't think I would stay in the past permanently. Rather, I would consider this as a kind of t...

My dream job

Imagen
  Hi! Since my childhood, my vision of the ideal job has gone through several stages, from wanting to be a doctor, lawyer, clown, dancer, and professional swimmer to finally longing to be an architect. This evolution reflects the breadth of opportunities that architecture offers. Currently my dream job is travel in Chile or the world and help people in what the architecture career gives me. Maybe, that job could get him maybe at a foundation or work for the state. I think the skill I need; it is essential to merge my technical skills with a deep social sensitivity and an ability to work as part of a team. This combination is fundamental to designing and implementing projects that benefit all the communities. About the salary, my goal is not to accumulate wealth, although I know that architects are often fairly compensated for their work. Ultimately, passion for the work outweighs any monetary considerations when selecting a job. My academic choice relies in the field of urban plann...

The best concert ever

Imagen
  Hi, I was remembering about the concert I went to in 2022 in Lollapalooza Chile, mainly I wanted to see Miley Cyrus Show. I have been following since I was 8 years old, when I was watching the Disney series Hannah Montana. That day was the most expected with my best friend, because we are knowing in the school when we are a little kid by reason of, we love Hannah Montana. So, the day of the concert we looking to seeing other shows during the waiting, calming the anxiety to see the concert soon. During the concert, I was shouting out the songs as best I could with my mask on because it was the first lollapalooza after the pandemic, so, I'm silent for a moment and no one was singing, I was embarrassed for a moment, but I kept doing it, because I was enjoying the concert so much. Then when it was over, I felt like a dream come true, because when I was little, I also went to a Miley concert, but I don't remember much. Random fact: at that concert she was also my best friend...

A country i would like to visit

Imagen
Since I’ve seen pride and prejudice, I’ve been intrigued to know where is the place  and that place is in England, exactly in the Derbyshire. So, I would like to visit Chatsworth House and England with my friends and romanticize our lives.  England is a beautiful country, and their capital is London, Where the Royal Palace is located, something that surprises me that in this century there is still a monarchy so present in a country and in its culture. I would like to go mainly to Chatsworth House , tour London and visiting places that Taylor Swift names in her song called “London Boy”, where she names places like SoHo, Highgate, Brixton, Shoreditch, etc. I would like to live a while there, maybe doing a school exchange or something, to enjoy and know places with more tranquility. But I really wouldn't want to live for long in a place where I won't be able to see my family or friends. Bye and i will be attentive to your comments. 

Person in your field that you admire

Imagen
Hi, it´s me again, Today I going to talk about the person in architecture that I admire, who happens to be Daniel Jadue. He’s a Chilean architect, born in 1967. He grows up in Recoleta, the commune in which he is currently mayor. He studied majors of sociology and architecture at the University of Chile. I admire him because he has done social work, something that not many architects do, and he has linked the social and architectural areas, responding to current needs that affect Chile in the housing area.   So, he inspires the architect I want to be. He has contributed mainly to the community of Recoleta, carrying out the project of a popular real estate company, which consists of the construction of two 5-story buildings, with a total of 38 apartments of 55 square meters, available for rent to vulnerable families in the community. Thanks for reading, see you.

A meal that i really like

Imagen
Hi, this time I am going to tell you about one of my favorite foods, which is lasagna. I always ask my mom to make it together on my birthday or I make it with friends. Lasagna is a baked dish containing layers of boiled lasagna, and cheese, a seasoned sauce of tomatoes, meat, or vegetables, depends on what you have in the kitchen, and the wonderful bechamel sauce, which is very easy to cook. This food is very easy to cook, or at least how I do it. The first step is making sauce of tomatoes with meat and vegetables, like chopped onions and carrots. Then make the bechamel sauce with flour, milk, and butter, so easy! Finally, as the noodle sheets are pre-cooked, the lasagna is assembled and baked. I like it because is very easy to cook, have too many ways to cook, is a very basic flavor but I like it. I don't know how healthy lasagna is, but occasionally, it's good to treat yourself.   I hope you will soon be able to eat your favorite food, thanks for reading c:
