On October 14, 2019  began in Chile a great social movement, where secondary and university students organized to massive evasion of the Santiago Subway train ticket. The main reason was the increase in amount, from 800 chilean pesos to 830 chilean pesos (equivalent to a final value of 1,30 dollars). Four days later the radicalization of the social movement occurred, thousands of people took to the streets to protest, to demand social changes in various fields: Pension System, Health System, Social Inequality, Quality Education, Water Privatization, Abuse and Corruption of large companies and politicians, among many others.

My favourite memory of the year

Hello everyone! Today I will write about my favorite memory of the year.  One of the most beautiful memories I have of this year, are the holidays I had in Licanray with my family. During the days we were there, we were know different places in southern Chile, such as Puerto Fuy, Coñaripe, Pucón and Villarica. It was a very nice trip for us, because we contacted each other a lot as a family. One of the most beautiful experiences I had on that trip, was that we swam together in the Lake during the night and seeing the beautiful stars. In addition, we ate and drank a lot. We drank a lot of beer haha! For this reason, everyone when we arrived in Santiago had to start diet :( My dog Apollo was the member of the family he enjoyed the most. He swam in the rivers and lakes and ran until he ran out of air! Thank you very much for reading me!

Why I chose Psychology

Hi classmates! Today I will write about because I'm decided to study Psychology.  When I was a little girl, I really liked a lot the idea that my work in the future was in hairdressing. I really liked combing and making haircuts to my dolls!  Also, when I was 10 years old I'm dreamed of being president of Chile, however, I had little time this idea in my head. As I started focusing on choosing one career in high school, I realized that I really liked to paint, draw and design. I really enjoyed art classes at school. For this reason, I decided to go to study Architecture at the University of Chile, however, in my second year of studies, I realized that my true vocation was Psychology. I' m decided to retire from Architecture and enter in 2018 to study Psychology at the same university. In this career I am very happy, I like what I study and what I read. I consider that Psychology is a very interesting discipline. In the future,  I would like to work in Clini...
