Post 4: Studying theatrical design

I`m a very indecisive person so when i had to choose wich career i wanted to study it was quite a difficult decision for me. When i was in school i had a very closed mind on what careers i was suposed to study: i wanted to be a lawyer. But when time passed i started changing my mind and see the posibilities. I started liking journalism,geography, cinema and i found it really hard to decide. Eventually i decided to study Geography but left the career after a few months cause it wasn't what i really wanted. After leaving geography i started training circus (trapeze and acrobathics) cause it was a dream i've always had and i fell in love with it and started training daily. But the social and family preassure made me had to choose a university career to sudy and that's when i found theatrical design as a possibility to be close to circus. I've always knew this career existed because it was my father's dream career, he's frustrated dream, so he was always pushing me to study it and i fell for the preassure.
Universidad de Chile is the only university that imparts this career in Chile, so i didn't thought about studying it on another university, besides, my father is a teacher from the university so i have a discount on the price and i really wanted to be in this university instead of another.
My experience so far has been full of stress. I didn't knew much about the dynamic of the career until i was on it, and it's actually a really hard and demandant career, where we have a really full schedule from 8:30 or 10:00 am to 6 pm everyday, withouth any "windows" on the schedule and having to do many works on our houses for the day after, it's really stressfull. Besides, the building is really "poor", little and with not much equipments, which eventually starts to take your motivation away from wanting to be there. We have to be really passionate about it to handle this conditions. But the career is beautiful, i've learned really fun and interesting things, i know how to design an escenary, how to manufacture clothes and do makeups and many more things.
My favorite subject has been the theorical ones, cause i have a lot of practical subjects, and my favorite one has been history of modern and contemporary arts cause i love doing researchs and learn and write about history. And the most significant thing i've learned till now has been manufacturing clothes and doing lights (control the lights).

Post 3: My pets




I have a really special relationship with animals and pets because i have had many many pets in my life and i consider myself an "animalista" (i couldn't find the translation for this word). For this same reason is that i turned into a vegan diet and lifestyle three years ago, so i don't eat, wear or use anything that has been made from anything related to animals. I don´t drink milk, eat eggs or meat, wear fur or leather, and don't use any cosmetics that have animal ingredients or have been tested on animals.
Since i was a little girl i've always rescued dogs and cats from the street and then keep them or give them in adoption. I live on a house with a spacious garden so i have always had at least 3 dogs on my house. I've even had 5 dogs and 2 cats at the same time in one period of my life, so that's why i have a really close relationship with animals. Besides, when i was little i created an "ong" with my friends for rescuing cats and dogs that were left on the streets and we gave them food, home, all the cares they needed, and we even sterilize them to control the massive amount of animals that we have on the streets.
In my life at least 20 dogs and 10 cats have passed in my house for long or short periods of time, and right now i have 2 dogs that were rescued from the streets (one of them we found it with "sarna") and we also have another dog that was a gift from a friend, and a cat that i adopted from a girl that was giving him on the street. My dogs names are Dino, Estrella and Puki, and my cat is called Lulo and for me he is a "model cat" cause he looks like the cats from the comercials.

Post 2: The best holiday ever

I've had some really exciting and fun holidays in my life, but if i have to choose the best one so far, i would choose the trip that i made last year to Europe.
I have an aunt and two cousins who live in Madrid, Spain, and last year we were told that they where going to return to live to Chile, so when i heard that, i decided that i wanted to visit them before they came back to Chile, so i could stay with them there and have a tour of the city with them too. When the first semester of my career ended, i was exhausted, but i was really happy because i passed all my subjects, so my parents as a regard, gave me the tickets to fly to Madrid for one week, and other from Madrid to Paris, to be there another week at my fathers friends house who lives in Paris. It wasn´t my first time on those countries so i wasn´t afraid of going on my own, and i wasn´t going to be completely alone, because i also had two friends in Paris and my family on Madrid. In total, i went to Europe for 2 weeks.
Once i got there i tried to use my time to the fullest. I went to every museum i could on both cities (like the louvre, the reina sofia museum, caixa forum museum, Orlay museum, and many more) and to every attraction i was told to go, such as the tour eiffel, the gran via street, puerta del sol, parque del retiro, notre dame, the Seine and more that i don't remember in this moment. And visiting all of this places was amazing because they're beautiful, but also it was really exciting because i already visited them when i was little and i remember them differently, so it was such a cool experience being there again but with different eyes.
I chose this experience in particular because it was my first trip on my own, and to the places i always dreamed to visit again, after i visited them with only 12 years old, and i had amazing moments with my friends in Paris, we went to a party on a boat on the Seine, we watched the Tour Eiffel lights on the night and we walk all around Paris getting lost in the most beautiful places. It was an amazing experience.

Post 1: A country i'd like to visit

I've traveled a decent amounts of times in my life and that has made me dream to travel more and more all the time, so it's pretty hard for me to choose one country that i would love to visit. But if i had to choose only one country to travel to, i would choose Greece.
A while ago i saw images of Mykonos (one of the islands of Greece) on the internet and i fell in love with the landscapes. I'm a person who loves the beach, the sea and the sun, so when i saw those images showing the cristaline waters of the Greek sea, i instantly loved it. Besides, there's a beautiful and really original architecture that makes some cities really interesenting to look at.
Besides of what i saw on the internet i don't really know much about this country, but for me those beaches worths everything, and i love the meditearranean weather.
In Greece i would love to do a boat or yatch (if i was millionaire haha) tour around the islands and the beautiful sea, i also would like to walk around the city and try the gastronomy, and i don't know, maybe ask and search what are the best things to do there.
It would be really amazing for me to be able to live and study there, cause Greece has a history of ilustrated people and the culture of anarchysm, which i'm interested in. I imagine that this is a really evolved country to study in.
