Money issues!!!

Hi!
Today I will talk about money issues. When I have money I try to save for the summer or for any unforeseen, but the true is almost never happens because I can’t save money because always I spend it in clothes, shoes or anything else. Sometimes I am a real shopaholic so I can’t save money, is very difficult for me. Sometime, my family borrow money and they always pay me back, although sometimes one of them forget who owes me money. So, I remind them, because clear accounts keep the friendship. Sometimes I have to borrow money from my mother, most of the time I'll pay back, other times she gives me the money. My mother is very nice. Sometimes I have to borrow money to some friends, but is little money, and always pay back them in short time, because I don’t like owes money.
I very like to manage money, is very exciting and with my own money I don’t have to borrow to my parents every time. With my money I can buy the things I like and go out with my friends, to the cinema, to eat out, dancing, and more fun things.
My bills I pay in “Servipag”, this is a place where you can pay all your bill, in this way I don’t lost time because I don’t have to go to different places to pay my bills, I can pay in one place all bills. Is very good this place, this has made my life easier.
I think that all schools should teach how to manage money, and not only the public schools, and this is not a responsibility exclusive of parents is everyone's responsibility.
I don’t use banks because to leave money in the bank charge a lot of commission, at least for me that I do not have a salary every month. And is little interest for have the money in the bank, is a really a big business and the beneficiary is not one; the people that we have money in bank.
Well, I think these are all. So, I see you soon in the next blog.
Bye!

My Faculty

Hi! Here we are again after a few weeks.
In this opportunity I will talk about some issues of the Faculty of psychology.
The Faculty presents some problems like: classrooms are small, the casino is very small, and there are two microwaves for a lot of students, so it take us several minutes to warm the lunch, sometimes the time we have left to eat is half an hour, so we have to eat very fast. Also, sometimes we have to wait for one table where can eat.
I believe the things to need the Faculty to improvement is the things that I describe recently, but also, like students we need a better library, we need a place where we can to study in silence, because in library in general there are much noise. Some students occupy the library to work, then there are not silence for study and read in peace.
The first thing that I would do is expand casino, and put more microwave for to decrease the waiting time to heat the food and we eat with more calm and not rushing, for to get to class on time.
The second thing, if the faculty has no money to buy air conditioning, because air in the spring and summer is very heavy in all classroom, especially because we are many in a small space, this has implications on our level of concentration during classes.
The third thing I would do would be to allocate a space where they can do the work and studies in groups, so only used the library to study and read in silence and tranquility.
With these measures all students would benefit, because this means improving the conditions under which we are embedded in the Faculty and that somehow this impact on our studies.

Last week a friend said me that she would come to Santiago in a few days. But, this is a big problem for me, because she comes for a few days, to see the city, and I know almost nothing about this city, so I don’t know places where to go with her. Because, I am not originally of Santiago, I live here for three years.
My friend will get to the terminal of buses, and in this place I will wait it. And then, we go to the “San Cristobal” hill. This place is very near of my apartment. So, the first thing we will do, leave bags in my apartment and then we will walk until the hill. This It’s a very beautiful place, with airy gondolas and, I prepared some food for a picnic and like this we will enjoy the spring, the green areas, and the wonderful view from the hill.
Then, we will go through the exit Pedro de Valdivia, thus we will walk for the immense park in direction to “los leones”, this is a commercial sector. We will go into the shops, and we'll try some clothes and probably we will buy something.
Then, we will take TranSantiago for arrive to Alameda, very close of my apartment. But, before to go home, we will go to “Fuente Alemana”, for the evening meal. In this place, serving the most big and delicious sandwich.
Then, we will go to home and we will see t.v., and later we will go to sleep, and tomorrow is another day, so tomorrow I will think in other places we will can to visit.

Hi!
Today I'm talking about my hobbies. I like to do many things.
I like to read, not only the texts of the university, I like to read novels but, for time I cant read very often. In general is in vacation when I can read different things, different things of the texts of my career. The last book that I read was “El niño del pajama a ralla”, in vacation, two weeks ago.
The other thing that I like to do is watch setcom and movies, of different type, like action, drama, romantic and comedy. Usually I see the setcome alone or a few times with my sister or my mother, but only sometimes. But, the movies I watch with my boyfriend, we go to the cinema or buy a movie and something good to eat in home. Sometimes, when we are in Curicó we see the films with my father, my sister and her boyfriend, all together, but not always. A my mother doesn't like to see movies, she gets bored. And, also I like to see films with my friends on vacation, because is only in this time when we are all in Curicó.
I like to ride to bike, but not in winter, because I don’t like to go out with the cold. So I prefer to go on in summer, with a friends or my boyfriend, I don`t like to go alone.
And recently I like to cook, in this year I have learned to cook lots of things rich.
Well, I think these are all my hobbies.
So, I see you soon in the next blog.
Bye!

I don’t know specific how was the Transport public in Santiago because I didn’t live here in those years. I came here just in the time where the Transantiago beginning. But, I think that transantiago is better for the students, because before the buses doesn’t stop for the students and now the transport is more secure because only to get started when the doors are closed. And this, there are less accidents. And the other thing that is very good is the way how pay, because with the "Beep" is less to be assaulted, not only for passengers but also for the driver, before that this system the driver was assaulted a lot of times, on the thieves keep with all the money that driver works. So, for these things I believe that this system is better than the other. My experience in this transport is good, after all nothing is perfect: DBut, I really think that now it is a good system, thanks to changes that it has had. Now, the buses happen more often, there are more buses that go to all places, in contrast to the first months of begin this new system. One of the changes that I would be direct toward the public that used the buses, I educate of them about how use correctly this system, for avoid that they takes the bus without pay. And, also increase the number of buses especially in some sectors that have more users. And I would get better working conditions and hygienic health of drivers, because sometimes they don’t have a bathroom in all day or a place to rest.

Hi! here we are again. In this opportunity I will talk about my experience during my first semester.
In the last semester, I learn about five different areas of psychology: communitary, clinic, education, psychology of work and forensic. Each one is was very interesting and important for me, but the last one is the area that more I liked. In this area I have learned about: criminal theories, the victims and the young infractores. And I have learned about public policy and the strengths and weaknesses of the judiciary in relation to victims and the accused.

The challenges in the last semester were to organize my time for a lot of homework and the tests of university, so that I could have time for myself.
The University isn’t all in my life, and for this I enjoy my free time, I love watch many movie, in the cinema or in my house, but always with someone else, as my boyfriend, my friends or my family, but never alone. I also love see a lot of T.V. series, comedy or drama, I like all.
I like to ride my bike, but not in days very cold. And I like go out for eat or take a drink with my boyfriend or my friends.
I think that's all for today.
bye!

My ideal job is where then I can work on things that relate to what I'm studying. The ideal job is one in that I can to enjoy what I do. Ideally I do can work in a place that is involved with children and adolescents who are at risk, either because their rights have been violated or because ther have violated some laws. Wish I could work in order to help them fit into society and give them the resources needed to cope to the society.

For this work I woul be need tolerance, basic knowledge of child development and adolescents, know about the best treatment to suit the needs of all and that adapt to the needs of each child adolescents or knowing about those tools and techniques in that help in her development.

I think I it might be good at this job because I think take some tools to work properly in a place like this, because I am interested in this area and I think I can work completely dedicated with enthusiasm and give the best of me, and not just stay in the theoretical part, but also will work as humanly possible, considering the other and not always working so that from my position and my knowledge I do believe it's the right thing.
I imagine finding this work is such hard like must be equally difficult to the other young people to finding work in areas as difficult like psychology.
