Me and my major, trying to make a better world

Imagen
 Hello everyone! Today I am going to write my last blog:c Because of my life history, reflection is part of me, so sociology, my future major, it is a very helpuful tool for sustaint that reflection. I thing we need to change the social estructure, for that is essential the praxis, reflection sustained by theory that is apply through the action. Sociology can help us to understand our society, if we don't know what are our features, we can't change the parts that do not benefit us.  I want to live this process learning all the time, living and feeling, trying to change or make this country better, but no alone, working with my family, friends and everyone who crosses my life. The most important thing it is to know that I am not a God who can changes everythings that wants, but I can contribute with respect to what is around me 

My dream post graduate studies

Hello everybody! Tonight I'm going to tell you about some careers I want to do after I finish sociology I think it is very important to have more degrees because in this society the professional specialization is increasingly important. The thing that I know it is that I want to go outside of Chile and know other countries, but I will come back here. My dream is study some subject related to the history of Latin America with sociological analysis, for thath I would love to go to Mexico and study in the UNAM (National Autonomous University of Mexico). Others areas of interest would be related to political science or philosophy, for that, my idea it is to go to countries like United States or some ones in Europe, like Germany or England. I would like to do a PhD or (and) a magister. Other subject of my interest is to learn about oriental sociology.

An artist that I admire: Tupac Shakur

     I have always liked all the things Hip Hop has.  One of them is Rap, and in Rap there is one of my favorite rappers, he is also considered the best rapper in all times, and his name is Tupac Amaru Shakur (1971-1996), his name honor Tupac Amaru II, who was a leader of the Inca rebellion against the spanish empire.      As a black men in the second half of the twenty century, Tupac performed in different underground places around USA, especially in his home town New York City. He has four studio albums, and another that was published after his death.      I love Tupac because his music and lyrics are very powerful, some people things the rap in the times of Shakur was based only in sex, drugs and money, and altough he did talk about it, he fought through his music against racism, poverty and abandonment of the US government with minorities.  https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJaQqb1_vqOS2zAVRvIqdTT4Qe_COIT0P

My favorite photograph

  I took this photo on January 23, 2019 on a trip I took with my parents. In the photo appears the captain of a ship that transported us to approach a place where we did a treaking. We were in Puerto "Río Tranquilo", which is a small town located on the western side of the "General Carrera" lake. We had to be transported by boat because the road had been washed away by an alluvium. I took the photo with my old cell phone that had a very good camera, the black and white filter was predetermined and I think it fits perfectly.  I like this photo because that was one of the best trip I have ever had in my life. I got to know many beautiful places in southern Chile, specifically in the Aysén Region of our country.

My favorite piece of technology

Hello everybody! Today I come to talk to you about my favorite piece of technology, I met this object thanks to the fact that one of my best friends cut herself with it when she tried to mix it up to make a cake. Since that day I have great respect for him. The object is the minipimer, the one in my house has been around for more than ten years and continues to work perfectly. The minipimer is occupied at least once a week, with it I make the pesto that accompanies the noodles that we eat every Wednesday at my house. What I like the most about the minipimer is that it is very useful for cooking things of all kinds. My culinary life would be more complex if I didn't have the minipimer, cooking would be a much slower and more cumbersome process.

Why I choose Sociology

Hello! I am going to tell you why I choose sociology as my career When I was a child I wanted to be a sports journalist because I love soccer and sports in general. When I grew up I began to think about other options, it crossed my mind to study history, law, pedagogy, until in the twelve grade I had sociology classes and I was able to learn more about the profession, I was captivated. Also, I spoke with a sociology professor who showed me his point of view and that helped me make my decision. Until now I have really liked sociology, the relevance in the career in social issues is what motivates me the most, what saddens me is that it's been one year of only online classes.  I really hope that I could continue studying after I finish sociology.  Have a nice weekend!!!
