CARRER CHOICE


the choice of university studies is one of the most difficult decisions, and it's even more in the lifetime in which it has to be made actually. each one of us wants to study the perfect career (spoiler: just a fantasy), the most succesful or the one that gives more privilege, but actually, deep inside, each one of us doesn't want the asalaried work involved in other career "ways" or professions , that's what our proletarian fathers tell us. the jobs that make the proposed system works don't receive the proportional payment to the labor force that is exerted, for the reason that these jobs "aren't at all productive". 

in this sense, there is the context of decision in which we have to choose $money$ or study something that possibly doesn't give us much benefit, but make us happy. in my case, i tried to choose a bit of both, that's why i study geography. when i gave the admission test i didn't have a clear idea of what i wanted to study actually, but i kinda have a clear idea of what i liked (such as the social-political sphere), that's why i wanted to study sociology, but involved a low salary and low employability, so in the selection request i opted for geography, altough it has low employability, the salary could be better (blindy trusting in the PSU websites) and it was something i knew i would like, bc i studied some kind of urban geography in HS and i was delighted. 

i'm satisfied with my decision so far, and i would like to continue to study. 

is an unfair system that we're forced to enter to be successful, or what we're led to believe is success.

SUMMER? HOLIDAYS

first of all, honestly, i don't like summer vacations mainly because of the heat and because they end, that's why, if i had the chance to go on vacation, it would definitely be to a cold place. that's why i plan to go to Valdivia, or somewhere more to the south and not so civilized, i really want to be in an inhospitable place where there is no visual pollution and u can see the sky as it really looks and share that experience with my girlfriend, are those things that you don't forget. these plans are not for this summer vacations, maybe not for the next ones either, mainly because no. money, with my girlfriend we're not very able to save money, so it probably won't happen for a long time, but the dream is not forgotten! something that is more than a dream is to travel abroad, it is very difficult with my current economic condition (i spend almost all my money in videogames), but following with the condition i put at the beginning, IT HAS TO BE A PLACE WHERE IT ...

BEST MOVIE I'VE SEEN (think so...)

  FACTS  BEST MOVIE I actually have been watched a lot of movies in my short period of life and i value each one of the different genres, but if a i have to choose just one, that would be Shutter Island. I saw it relatively recently (maybe that's the reason what i choose it), and i have to say that i love it.  Shutter Island was released in 2010 and its about a private investigador in the 50s who goes to an island because its a something wrong there, some kind of post war experiments with mental patients. I can say that the first fourty minutes were a horror movie, not kidding, the atmosphere propose by Martin Scorsese is as frightening as it is unconfortable, is really hard to stay sit. Yo, it is reallt difficult to achieve that in a film, maybe in a videogame, 'cause you're doin' something, but in a movie you're just sitting. I can say that no horror movie triggered me that felling and i believe it's a good reason for you to put it on your movie list and watch...

A Country I Would Like to Visit

Imagen
Hello there, i'm Luis and i'm writting again about of what country i would like to visit. First of all i would like to clarify that my aspirations are not that high. I mean, i don't think that western countrys have to be a place to look for and rejecting Latin America at the same time. I'm not chauvinist, but my wish to travel is only with the purpose of discovering other places or if another country offer me some kinda liberty for myself. After that boring explanation, i would like to share with you my only experience outside of Chile. At 10 years old i won a journey in a competition from the Company “Enel” (my dad work there back then). The destination was Italy, a 12 hour trip on plane, that was kinda exhausting, but when i was there, the Little Luis was enchanted of Roma, i visited places like the Fontana Di Trevi and The Coliseum to after the Company take me to Gualdo Tadino, a old city of italy. The people of the Old Country was kinda rude actually, at least the ...
