4. WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS UNIVERSITY PROGRAMME

 

Architecture

Since I was a child, I wanted to do so many things. I dreamed of being a soccer player, firefighter, superhero, Jedi, basketball player, architect and designer. And one thing I especially loved was drawing, I spend so many hours drawing and creating things. My mom says that I stayed all day playing alone, doing art attacks, legos and drawing. It was something that kept me calm and allowed me to express myself. So since I was little I knew a little what I would like to study or be when I grow up.

Despite these things, when I was about to go to university I had many doubts. For my love of sports I wanted to study kinesiology, I also thought about other careers such as design, psychology, engineering and ecotourism. 



I finally decided to study architecture because it brings together a great totality of the things that I like, which will help me to realize my maximum potential. I chose the University of Chile because, for me, it is the best university in the country. I have family that have studied at the FAU and they always recommended it to me, and my father studied Engineering at the University of Chile and he always motivate myself to study at this university.


My experience at the university has been great, I have learned a lot and have advanced in architecture. I have changed my way of thinking and seeing the world, and that I think is something particular that the University of Chile has given me.
I look forward to continuing to learn and to be able to maximize my potential to make the world a better place for all people.

2. THE BEST HOLIDAYS EVER

Imagen
The magnificent of the desert Always, from a very young age, I have been in love with the sea. I love to sit on the beach to look at its immensity, its mystery and just watch it. But above all, I love swimming in the sea and doing sports in it. But I never imagine, falling in love with a sea of sand. Yes, you read well... a sea of sand, and now I'm going to tell you the story of the best vacation of my life: my travel to the desert.  The first time that I traveled to the desert was in July of 2019 and I went to the Atacama Desert, in the north of Chile. I traveled with my whole nuclear family: My dad, My mom, my three sisters and my little brother and we didn't' t stay form more than 5 days, but it was the best holidays ever. The  main cause of why this was the best trip it's because  it was the last trip we made with the whole family.  My two older sisters work, one has already left home and is getting married in February, so this was the last trip together. ...

3. MY FAVOURITE TV SERIE

Imagen
The best TV serie ever The truth is that since I was a child I don't like to watch a lot of television. I'm a sports fan, so I only liked to watch my soccer team, the NBA, soccer from other countries and sometimes tennis. I wasn't very good at watching movies or series, but 6 years ago I started a relationship with my girlfriend. She loves movies and series very much, so her love for cinema infected me a bit. From that moment, that I never imagined, I began to watch a little more television. I have a couple of favorite movies, so this time I decided to talk about my favorite series, the best series ever created: Peaky Blinders.  Peaky Blinders is the best series ever made. Firstly, in my opinion and the reason of why its my favourite serie, what sets it apart from the rest is the acting and dialogue. To illustrate, we can see in this series an amazing cast like Cillian Murphy, Helen McCory, Paul Anderson  and Tom Hardy. Secondly, it teaches you history. Because this extraor...

6. TIME TRAVEL TO THE FUTURE

Imagen
Time Traveling I have always loved traveling, since I was a child I really liked traveling the country, leaving Chile and above all, knowing new places and learn about them. One of my biggest dreams when I was a kid was to be able to travel back in time. Now that I've grown up and a while ago, I realized the importance of living in the moment. For this reason I have never thought of traveling into the future again, in large spaces of time. I have only thought of going back to the past,  to have people or moments in my life that I no longer have. Even so, if I were forced to travel to the future, I would clearly choose a nearby trip. This is because I believe a lot that the great dreams of the future are played in the present, and I would not like to skip stages of my life. I would not like to see how far I would go if I continue as I am, because that would ruin my way of living the present, the gift of the day to day. For this reason my time travel would be until the end of the aca...
