FAU

Imagen
When I started studying at the FAU, I had many expectations, basically because I had looked for information when I was in school, I asked my classmates who were already studying there, etc. Actually, I had in mind, to get to a place where everything was creativity and, basically, the building, was going to be almost similar to Hogwarts. (Because, let's be honest, when you go to study architecture, you think that your construction will be attractive). Nowadays, I am 9 months studying here, and I have come to know almost every corner of this faculty, realizing that, to be a building that is ready for 3 courses, it is very badly organized. Starting with the bathrooms, which for my taste, is the sector that has more deficiency. As a woman, I constantly go to the bathroom, sometimes just to look in the mirror, but it is too unpleasant, to enter and see that all the doors are on the floor, or see that the floor is dirty (and if it, is because it is dirty, and if it is dirty is be...

Fight Club It was directed in 1999 by David Fisher and played by Edward Norton, Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter. It is Edward who plays the stellar character (where he never reveals his name), who is a clerk of a car company somewhat bored by his work and suffering from insomnia. To overcome this problem, he goes to various support groups in one of which he meets Marla Singer (starring Helena Bonham). On a business trip, he meets Tyler Durden (starring Brad Pitt) on the flight. For various situations that were presented, the character of Edward Norton and Tyler Durden frequent more. Over time, they create together "the fight club" located in the basement of a bar. This group of people rejects the established and use the violence of the fights between them to lose the fear of the emotional suffering, physical pain, rejection of the people or until releasing the stress, etc. However, Tyler Durden plans a project that is practically based on creating economic chaos. ...

my summer vacation 2018

Imagen
Next summer, I’m do not intend to do anything but relax in my house, maybe go out with my parents some days to the south (I really love the south and also the north too), but I do not plan to go out with my friends to a special place, I intend to sleep all that I couldn’t sleep in the year, see all the movies and series that I cannot see for staying late making models. maybe I work for Christmas, because I love doing it, in fact, every summer I work in the MAICAO store, where I have to interact with people and sell the products and that I really love (I do not like to wake up early, but in the maicao, I can choose my schedules) but surely more than that I will not. I plan basically that my summer has many afternoons of swimming pools, late of movies and many hours of sleep. I also pretend to spend my afternoons, walking with my dogs in curico, since in all the year of class I could not see them, or if I saw them I did not give them the affection they deserve O...

Postgraduate

Imagen
I've never thought of any kind of postgraduate degree in architecture because in fact, just recently, on my last day of school I realized that I wanted to study architecture. But if I had to think about one of the themes that architecture had, I would probably study something related to urbanism. I would love to study outside of Chile, because I always felt the architecture of, (for example) Italy or France in general, is a much cleaner architecture than that of Chile, and that is also related to the urbanism of the cities, the way in which they build, as governed by urbanistic norms that make their field of construction is much more orderly than ours. I would like to study continuously, as I do now in the university, because I feel that studying alone at night, I would not work for me, I would be tired and sleepy all day, and I would not be 100% focused. I would also like to have this postgraduate course, sitting in front of a teacher, in person, I did not see computer o...

Future

Imagen
In the future I would like to work in some kind of company where there are many architects, in this way I’ll be able to learn from all of them, and also to know the different points of view that each one has. Then, when I’m going to be even bigger and have more experience, I would like to start a company, and work in different areas, such as re-building patrimony, design scenarios, and also as a company, have own projects. I would like to practice as much as in cities, as the field (outdoors), especially in the south, since I completely love the south of Chile. (I really don’t imagine myself, being locked up in an office all day doing the same project for hours, I like to go out on the ground and meet new places) But before I star to go to the world of work, what is going to be my whole life, I would like to get to know the world, at least all of Europe, since I deeply love the classic architecture that it has, and, I really  feel that after studying 6 years, I des...

Food

Imagen
I really like food, but not any kind of them, example ... I really like junky food, because who dosen't? but I dislike (a lot)  the beans, lentils or chickpeas. I also really love the Mexican food and the  china food; I think that the two of them have something in particular that makes this kind of food so delicious to me. The last exotic food that I recently ate, was "shawarma" or "Dörner", it is like a Mexican taco but this one is Arab, and it has its own products (with this I mean that is not all fat) I don´t consider myself a foodie, because I eat when I have hungry (or when I have anxiety). Basically I like to taste new plates, new flavors and that kind of things, but I am always concerned in maintaining a healthy state of my body

Blog evaluation

I think it's a good idea to use the blogspot website in English class. Because in my personal experience, and I had never made a blog, so this is a whole new experience for me. Speaking of skills and developed this exercise, I believe that to be writing blogs (mostly 200 words) almost every Thursday, allowed me to be able to expand my ideas and thoughts, by that I mean having to explain with details all I have to say, because someone else have to understand what I mean. In the future I would like that the first hour of the class were about talking between the classmates and teacher, and not having to sit an hour in front of the computer, I feel that this it would be more pleasant for everyone, and because of that it will be  generate a more dynamic environment. I do not know what I would like to talk about in the future, but, I do know, that I would not like to talk about research and politics issues.

A hobby

Imagen
When I was 12, I was a very restless girl, so my mom enrolled me in many activities after school, to get tired physically and mentally. One of them, was learning how to ride on skates; At first it cost me to learn to move in them, in fact I fell from them several times, there I met the helmet and the knee pads. I had to move from 4-wheel skates to 6-inch skates. Which was hard to learn on the street outside my house. When I turned 13, I started going to the skating club in my city. Being there I met people with whom I became friends to this day. When I was that age I liked to just walk in them, to be able to walk in my city in rollers, instead of walking or riding a bicycle; I also liked going out with my friends, playing in the streets, and walking with my pet. Over the years I moved away from skating altogether, even sold my skates because they were of a smaller size, and never again went skating. Now that I am bigger I realize that this hobby served me a lot, to spee...

THE FIRST PHOTOGRAPH OF HISTORY

Imagen
THE FIRST PHOTOGRAPH OF HISTORY This is a photo that was taken in 1826 known with the name of "Point of view from the window in Le Gras"; it was taken by the French Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in the region of Burgundy, France. The image was made on a pewter sheet (zinc alloy, lead and tin) and recorded, after 8 hours of exposure, from the roof of the farm; His intention was to capture the landscape of the scientist's farm. Personally I love this photo as it represents the beginning of a new era where technology replaces the classic painting that at that time was responsible for immortalizing the moments that were wanted to keep. Thanks to the discovery of José Nicéphore Niépce, it was possible to continue advancing from the basics that was his "camera" until arriving today, where the cameras allow him to have the photos of immediate form and not to wait 8 hours to see the result of his session of pictures. Currently, the photo is preserved at the ...

Technology

My parents gave me the first when I was six years old on my birthday. It was a simple one, so I did not use it much. At first I only took it to my backpack and I did not take it out of there. Over the years to this day I have played five of them. The one that I have today, has a big screen and a button, it is white and it has enough functions like taking pictures, playing music, calculator, I can surf the internet, you can communicate with people at long distances Nowadays I can’t be without it, I use it every time I'm bored or I have nothing to do, that's what I like most about this device, which can be carried everywhere. I have tried many brands to have the best quality but I always have the same. I like its speed and its form.

Why did you choose this career?

Imagen
When I was a little girl, I really wanted to be a doctor, and specialize in pediatrics. All my life I thought that I wanted that because I visited my pediatric a lot on my childhood. When I was a teenage r (and with this a mean my first year on high school). I realized that I really loved art, in every shape. So I start researching careers that were related to art . There were so many careers that I wanted to do, that I thought choosing just one would be difficult. I thought about art, publicity, architecture, design. After that,during my last year in high school, I have these two options that I really like, one was publicity and the other was architecture; in the end I chose architecture because I realize that the publicist  in Chile are not treated as they deserve, and because  I really like to make the cities more beautiful (I want to make the constructions more detailed and at the same time more aesthetics ) My experience at university until today has been go...
