My favourite piece of technology



My favourite piece of technology is camera. Fortunately, I have got a good camera! During my years of life, I had three cameras: a film camera, and aquatic camera, and the actually, a digital camera. The first two cameras I recived in different birthdays, and the third I recived in Christmas 2013.

I like this artefact because I love take pictures.  I use my camera during all the year, and I take different types of photos: family photos, places, animals, persons, landscapes, special events all year round, among others. 

Now, why I like take pictures? Well, I like take pictures because I like to take a physical register about my memories: the places that I visited, the persons that I saw, my experiences in the public transport, the funniest moments in the school, the sky (I have a lot of pictures that show the sky in different hours, days, seasons and years), some objects, draws, family photos, my cat (and other cats), another animals, my foots in different places, some photos of food (specifically cakes), among others. An other reason that I like take pictures is for the sensation that I feel when I'm behind the lens, you can see all the movements of people, but they can't see yours, not the same way. Is like if you entered in their lifes, in their thinks and feelings, is like if you are one of these persons, living the moment that you being capturing with the camera.

I don't imagine my life without take pictures, this hobbie has become and addiction. But, if I try to imagine me in these situation, I'll see me drawing all the time, trying to capture all that I see.

Why did I choose this career/study programme?

Since I was a child, I always loved the science, especially nature science. First, I wanted to be a mad scientist, I don't know the reason. Then, when I was in kinder, I wanted to be a zoologist because I have read a lot about animals and I watched a lot of TV programs about it. In elementary school, I was confused because I didn't know what to choose: archaeology or paleontology, in these moment, for me, both was similar.

With the passage of time, I was about to take high school. I didn't know what study in the future, this stressed me. During a conversation with my mom, I raised her this question. She asked me about my real interests, I answered: ''I like the science, draw, write and the criminal investigation'', she recommended me study forensic medicine. Since these moment, I started to read a lot about anatomy, death, parapsychology, and biology because I wanted to do the best job possible, not only in the scientific field, I wanted to treat the corpse and his family with the respect that they deserve. In my 11th year, I began to have a emotional crisis: I didn't want to go to the university, I was afraid to choose the wrong career, I started to ask me ''is medicine the correct career? Can I do it?''I started to think in other options: theory of music, visual arts, instrumental music, psychiatry and architecture, I searched a career that like a combination of art and science, that allow me save the environment and most importantly, that make me happy.

Finally, I chose architecture. Fortunately, I was accepted in Universidad de Chile, I chose this university because, since the first time that I visited the Medicine's Faculty, I felt at home. My first day in FAU was strange: I felt happy because I saw my partners for first time, but I was very nervous, I couldn't say any word. During the next months, I met my teachers and my classmates, they was, and they are, great persons. The gardens are beautiful, the classes are interesting, but the cigarettes and marijuana's smell are unpleasant, why nobody appreciates the clean air or the flowers smell?! So, when I finish my studies, I want to dedicate my career to save the environment: discuss with the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development and the Ministry of Public Works about new laws that protect our ecosystems, design environmental self-sustainable architecture, among other ideas.

My autobiography

I was born a friday night of September 4th, 1998 in Santiago, Chile. My mother told me that my family was concerned about my healt, because my brother David was born before me (1994), but he dead inmediatly. I grew in a house where lived many persons: my parents, my maternal grandparents and my three maternal uncles. They always were monitor me, I didn't move a finger without they were concerned for me. Hearing this, I begin to understand why I'm a paranoid person. 

I've beautiful memories in this house: I always played in the garden with my animal and dinosaur's toys, I tried to copy the migrations rhat apear in Natgeo, Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, I loved watch these TV programs. In autumn, when my grandma watered here plants and sweep the flowers that fell of the Acacios, I threw myself upon the flowers and leaves, It was funny. I played  many games with my little sister and my cousins, and my grandma always we had served dessert, generally, flan. In Christmas, my mum hid my cousins and my sister and me in our bedroom, here, I hear my grandpa's voice or my uncle Mauricio's voice, they trie to imite Santa Claus, hahaha.

I studied  my elementary and highschool in Ascensión Nicol. Here, I knew my actually friends: Johana, Anyel, Francisca, Vinka, Macarena, Luna, Fernanda and Consuelo. Johana is my best friend, we have 14 years of friendship. I loved my teachers, specially music's teacher: Paolo, with him, I learnt all of I know about play musical instruments, I loved belong to Medieval Music's club. I learnt to play the piano, flute, metallophone and some of guitar, this club are the most important hobbie in my life. I must confess that the graduation was horrible: I was scared, I dont' leave the music's room, my parners, my teachers. I don't want to go to university because I don't want to start from scratch, meet new persons, make new friends, no! I'm shy, I don't like speak! Fortunately, my partners are great persons, creatives, funny, intelligents, and my teachers too. I must acknowledge that I was very fortunate to can be accepted in this university.

Practice Post

How safe is to give your personal information on websites such as facebook, my space and any others? What’s the limit for you?

In my opinion, your safe depends on the users that you add in your website. If you add many users, you'll run the risk of found bad people (harassers, murderers, violators, pedophiles, etc.). I don't say that you have to become a paranoid person, but you should be careful. For example, some tips that I use for accept or reject user's requests in my websites are, among others: 
1. User name. You should able to recognize anyone belonging your know persons's circle. If you don't know the user name, search in her friends' list anyone that you know. If you can't find anyone, reject this request.
2. User's information. If you dont' recognize any of his datas, reject this request.
3. Profile. Search his interests, then, you'll obtain useful information about this user. 

Personaly, I'm a paranoid person, jaja. When I can't recognize anyone know person, I become a cold and reluctant person, because I need to obtain information about this user for recognize him.
