Time travel to the past or future

Imagen
  I would like to be able to travel to the past, just to feel again some experiences and people that I miss a lot, I don't know if I would change anything from the past, because if not, nothing of what led me to be who I am today would have happened. I think it's just for nostalgia, but I prefer that to the future, I think that knowing how things will be, would take away a little bit the illusion or expectations of what I would like to happen, I could be disappointed and not achieve what I have in mind, I prefer it to be a surprise. I would travel specifically to a moment in my past; in my winter vacations of 2013, when I traveled to Santiago to visit my relatives, among them my grandfather who had just been discharged from chemotherapy; that afternoon I spent with him I enjoyed it very much, I was very happy, maybe I would change something, but I do not know if doing so would change something of what happened; I would have liked to have accepted to stay that night in his apart...

A photograph you like

Imagen
This photo was taken by my best friend Caroline, in February 2022, when we were backpacking in the south. In the photo I appear doing handicrafts Jjajaja we were on the waterfront of Lake Llanquihue; we both like analog photography, and that time she managed to get a double night exposure with my camera. I like this photo very much, first because it is one of the few in which I like the way I appear, I am not very photogenic, also because it was taken by my friend, whom I love and miss very much, the other reason is that I developed that black and white film in my workshop at the university; therefore I am very fond of it and it is a personal achievement to have managed to develop it without failure; Also when I see that photo I remember many things of that great trip, it makes me very happy to see it, it raises my spirits and self-esteem; also when I finished doing what appears in the photo we had a great time Jajajaja we enjoyed even the smallest things where we were and we talke...

My Bucket List

Imagen
  The previous years I have written my bucket list; within it I have added traveling, saving, meeting more people, taking care of myself, etc. But this year that list was shortened and limited to college. The first activity on the list, is to get through this semester; if I accomplish that, I would start writing the rest, not before. I think this is the activity that I have had the hardest time accomplishing in all the time I have been organizing my list; there are external and family factors that prevent me from moving forward and accomplishing my tasks as I would like to do, and it is something that I can no longer handle, it is difficult for me to achieve this activity and the truth is quite sad. In case of achieving it, I would like to add to the list: -Back to travel with friends. -Visiting the cemetery, which I have not been able to go to because of college and work. -Getting money for my orthodontic treatment. -To be completely independent and move out of my apartment in Stg...

TV Shows and Series

Imagen
My favorite series is Malcolm in The Middle, what I love about this series is that it represents and shows everyday situations that usually occur when living in a family, it is also realistic in many of the things it exposes, the inheritance of the older brothers' clothes, the strict mom, the fights between siblings and sibling secrets, also what it is to live with low salaries, etc. Lois is one of the most characteristic characters, she represents very well the profile of a demanding mother who has not gone to therapy, and despite being an American plot, she fits in many typical things of Chilean mothers;  it reminds me a little of the relationship I have with my mom, although I wouldn't know which character to identify with, it's a mix. I think that after Malcom, my second favorite series is The Simpsons JAJAJAJ  a classic, I can watch them all day long and they don't bore me, in fact I know the dialogues by heart. Both are my favorite series from when I was little, b...

Academic Challenges in 2022

Imagen
 Personally, I think that, in the career, they should enhance the digital area of art, within what is illustration and what it entails to make a record of work, programs for photo/video editing.  I would expand the content seen in the analog photography workshop, to be able to learn other methods of development, in addition to black and white. It is necessary to open more places or another silkscreen printing course, since it is in high demand and many of us were left out of the course, despite having the willingness and interest to learn the technique. The academic load is high, it takes a lot of time to plan, think and carry out a work; but we are in a system that asks us to do and do, sometimes teachers tell us that they take up to 3 months in a work, but we are required to deliver one in 2 weeks, I think and I think it is not consistent, it is not respected or given the time for creative work and that leads us to do work by obligation in most cases and not by dedication an...

The best holidays

Imagen
 After my last vacation, I promised myself to travel every summer, together with my friends. In January 2022, we traveled south backpacking with my friends, I hitchhiked from Santiago and they from Parral, our first stop of the week was Puerto Montt, we went to visit a friend who went to live in Calbuco, we stayed at his house and the next day, we moved to Llanquihue; we camped by the lake, we toured the town and I ate the best steak of life for $2,500 JAJAJAJA  The next day we went to Puerto Varas, we spent most of the day there and in the afternoon, we hitchhiked and a gentleman took us in a truck to Ensenada; we found a beautiful campsite, with access to the lake and a view of the Osorno volcano. We stayed there for 2 days, we took the opportunity to visit the Vicente Perez Rosales National Park on foot and then we hitchhiked to Lake Todos Los Santos, we did a tour of the lake in a catamaran, then we went down and visited the Petrohué Falls; then we had to return in 2 diffe...

A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

Imagen
  My goal in a few years is to be able to work and if possible, live for a long time in Canada.  Also as a landscape lover, I want to live the experience of seeing the Northern Lights, the country has many excellent places, from where to appreciate them. Canada is a country with many curiosities, among one of them, it is the country with more donut stores in the world, it is also the world capital of the polar bear jajajaja (something that I personally love; I am finishing my French courses, so another aspect that attracts me a lot is its strong bilingual culture; I long to visit Montreal and Quebec.
