Feel like a blogger OMG

Normally I do not use blog, I used to have one to publish short stories that I wrote, but that was in 2010 and now I don't have time to do it, so I was out of practice. And of course I used to write in spanish. I think that this working methodology is a very good alternative in our times, considering that people is always using computers or cellphones, and even more when we are in an era where the social networks are part of our lives. I found pretty interactive to work with this type of websites, because you publish your entry in english, so you have to think in english (it is difficult at first but then it becomes easy) and then you have to read your classmates entries, in english too, to comment on their blogs. I like to read other people's opinion or experiences about a topic and comment about them :) I think that my writing skills have improved widely, because normally we don't write in english, we are more used to lisen it or read it. In the traditional way, I mean like in school with completing sentences, and all that stuff you don't develop this skill. Maybe this kind of methodology should be introduced in schools, to make the classes more entertaining for children, and avoid a bad experience with this language. The most of the people that I know who hates english it is because they found boring the subject at school. 

I don't know, I think that the topics were quite diverse but I think that we shouldn't talk about career related topics hahah I know that maybe is part of the course program, but I found it boring, because we are the entire week studying and learning things about our careers and sometimes is exhausting. 

Today's activity :D

Well I found pretty interesting this activity because there are a many things that I didn't know about this topic, and it's really helpful to learn some other tips and information.
What I know abut the 3Rs is anything else but the name: recycle, reduce, reuse. I try to do my best at this. I'm lucky to have a municipal recycling park near my house so I can go walking to it (we don't have a car anyway). When we do this, about two times in the month, I realize how much waste we produce, and believe me, it is A LOT. When I go with someone else (any volunteer? haha) we both carry 5 bags in each hand full of recycling material, so 20 full bags. And it take us half an hour to deposit all in the correct container, plus the hour at home organizing the material in the different bags. So normally I spend the entire sunday morning doing this. But I don't care, I'm happy to do it, and when I go there and I see a lot of other people doing it makes me happy and keeps me motivated. And of course I'm always trying to reuse things, give them to other person/organization or sell them, I don't know. In fact I buy a lot of used clothes in the market instead of buying it in the mall. I use my flask to bring tea to uni instead of buying disposable cups. And many other things, you just have to be attentive to the things you do or use. For example, when I take a shower I try to cut the water while I'm washing my hair, sometimes it gets cold, but I rather prefer save water.
So I think this is a very important topic, and I believe that everybody should care and be informed about it, but sometimes I think that the government is not prepared to deal with it, there are not enough recycling parks, available information and I don't even want to mention the environmental public policies in Chile, that practically don't exist or are poorly developed :(

When I finished school I really didn't know what to do because I liked so many things, specially the health area, but I was not sure, I was thinking in biology, biotechnology and marine biology too, so I was really confused. I took a year to prepare psu but didn't helped me, in fact I was more confused. So I when I got the psu results I went with the vocational advisor to help me decide because I only had three days to make the postulation. She told me that maybe the bachelor program was appropiate for my case hahah. So I entered to "bachi", finally there I realized that my area was the social sciences, I always thought that this area was related to history and maybe because of that I dismissed this option. So then I choosed psychology because of the relation with the health area and because I liked it. 

Well, psychology is a very versatile career, there are a lot of contributions from psychology in the educational area, child development, clinical tratments, laboral area, and there are also contributions to the community health, a very small brach but very interesting and with a lot of potential

In the future, maybe psychologists will have to change the way they treat their patients, this is refered to clinical psychology. It is a very personal view but I think the traditional way we are doing it at the moment is not as effective as it can be, I mean sitting in a room talking an hour per week with a patient maybe is not the most efficient way to help people. I believe that practice is really important, because life is not only in our minds, is in the relation with others and the society. Plus the constant renewal of the knowledge in our area, knowing the fact that things around us are always changing, and faster than ever, new phenomenoms and new diseases will develop considering the lifestyle we are having, so we must adapt to those changes and find new ways to manage those problems.
My favourite subject at this moment is judicial psychology, I don't know why really, maybe because there is a lot of praxis in that area and a lot of investigation and contributions yet to do.
