Post 3: Mental health Problems related to a lockdown

 

             One of my personal problems during the pandemic was that i felt lonely and overwhelmed.

            I felt down. I've always been an active, sociable person. With the lockdown, I became

            introverted and not in the mood for anything.

            One of the things I've done to get over this lockdown is playing sports and doing other tasks                    such 

            as learning how to cook, which is really entertaining to me, playing board games with my

            family, and watching some TV series.

            The pandemic in our lives presents us a clear issue: social inequality. Besides, I considered it's 

            great opportunity to learn about and improve relationships with the people around you.

             My future plans are being able to live in Santiago, have my own independence, and get

             back to my karate trainings and competitions, In addition, I would like to be reunited

             with my friends and get to know my classmates in university.

            

my best holidays ever

My best holidays ever were with my aunt in Porma a locality near Toltén city, and I don’t have a specific date because with my family went several times in the summer. Every day that I use to go was my favorite, because I could hang out with my family and boyfriend, we can visit the beach which is very beautiful and isolated, it’s not a well-known place but is wonderful. Besides, my aunt lives in a countryside, so I love to go there. I went like 4-5 times in the summer with my dad, mom, grandma and boyfriend.

One of the things that we do was to play games like soccer, running, beach tennis and board games, it was like we all became children again. We are allowed to go to the beach the days off quarantine and there is very isolated so it’s was not a problem.

Until now, this vacation was my favorite because I love the nature and be calm, it´s a place surrounded by vegetation and also I like so much have some fun with my family.

The place I've always wanted to visit

 

                hello, welcome back to my blog

              I’ve always dreamed to visit Japan, Okinawa.

Japan is a country with a very different culture compared to my country, the language, environment and infrastructure is one of the things that I like the most. I really would like to visit it, because that is where Karate was born, and it’s my favorite sport. I usually use some words in Japanese when I train Karate. One of the things that I know about Japan is they have a low birth rate and so many long-lived people.

Besides, I would love to try the gastronomy, visit the famous “Shibuya Crossing”, and appreciate the beautiful infrastructure.  Also, go to Okinawa and look at the hotels in capsule form.

On the other hand, I wouldn´t work or live there, because I feel that I couldn't get used to a different culture, but it's a country that I really want to visit.

POST 5: My Best Friend

 

For me, friendship is something very important, because the person you call a friend can accompany you during your life unconditionally. For me, any person is not a friend; you need trust, respect and sincerity.

I have 4 best friends and one best friend, who I met at school, their names are: Valentina, Constanza, Emilia, Catalina and benjamin is the same age as me, we are friends for 8 years now, which have been very great. 

They are my friends because they have been through good times and bad times, besides I know that I can count on them for everything, when I feel lonely they are the ones who are there, besides we always have a great time, we create a lot of trust between us.

The best memory we have is when we traveled to Temuco to a friend's apartment, we all went and walked around in the mall, we ate, talked a lot and got to know more about the city together, we laughed a lot. 

Even though we each live in different cities, we have managed to maintain our friendship as if there were no distance between us and we always try to take time to see each other. 

Post 4: My Favorite Festivity

 The New Year is the celebration of the beginning of the following year in the calendar, depending on the type of calendar used. The most common is that of January 1, from the Gregorian calendar, which was established by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, and is used in most countries of the world1. Because of this celebration, January 1 is a holiday in almost all the world, and in countries such as China and in the framework of some religions, other days of the year are celebrated.

I like the new year very much because it is a celebration with family and friends that gives a lot of joy, you feel the hope that a better year is coming, leaving behind everything that has already happened, which gives me an illusion of new goals and achievements.

Usually together with my family, we do a celebration with a barbecue to wait for the new year, and to be able to embrace each other with some speculation, after that we dance and celebrate. After celebrating with my family I go out with my friends and polo to celebrate in a disc also be able to dance 

Post 3: My favorite piece of technology

In this post I will talk about something that is very important to me. I like technology a lot, and it has become something fundamental in my daily life. My cell phone, is very important, because I use it to communicate with my friends and also as a work tool, because I have sponsors on my instagram account that has helped me get many gifts. I love social networks, I like to publish about my day to day life and talk with my friends. I use it daily, it is always with me, and I usually use it for calls, messages and social networks like facebook, instagram, mail, etc. 

I have a cell phone since I was about 10 years old, I like it because I think I can give it a lot of usefulness besides that I can use it for the university and to contact quickly with people who live far away from me. My life without it would be quite different, because I am very used to having it. However I think I could spent more time doing other things and because it also generates a lot of distraction. 

See you in the next post.

Post 2: Why did you choose your career / study programm

Hello again!!! This is my second post, and I want to share it with you guys!

When I was a child, I dreamed about being so many things. I used to be quite undecided . I  wasalways indecisive, I really liked medicine, veterinary medicine and I also dreamed of being a dancer, or even an actress, I always had several ideal jobs as a child and I really wanted to be everything!

When I was growing up, My options changing and I realized that I did not have the ability to be a doctor, because blood, wounds and everything related to an open body disgusted me. After that, nutrition started to call my attention and it became one of my options hwen i applied to college.

 finally I decided to study psychology because I liked nutrition but I didn't like the study programme and when I saw the psychology programme, I really loved it!. So that made my final decision of studyng this career to become a phychologist.

So far my experience at the university have been quite very different from what I imagined, because the online mode is not of my better choices, but what i really like are teachers and the subjects I have, they make me happy despite of the circumstances.

I conclusion, I would like to work in clinical psychology, having  my own clinical practice with different cases, besides being able to work in another schedule with high performance athletes as a sports psychologist, becauseI am a karate athlete and I like sports too much.
