My favorite TV show

Resultado de imagen para the simpsonsI have never been a person who watches a lot of TV programs , most of the time, I' ve never finished the TV series that I started. But there is  one series that I can always watch and it never bores me: The Simpsons, you don´t need to see the chapters in order, because each one is independent, and this is one of the reasons that I like it, because I don´t need to be worried if I lost one episode. The Simpsons is about an American family, who lives in a little town. Although most of the chapters are about hilarious situations, there´s not the only topic that it has. Many chapters are about the family, and its significance. For example the episode when Homer finds his mother, that he believed she was dead or the episode when they tell the story about the Lisa´s first word. Also, this series criticises things like the politicians and aspects of the modern life, with irony.
Another reason that I like this TV series, is that it´s very simple to be identified with the characters, and the situations that they lived. There are like any family, who have problems, but at the same time, they love each other.
My siblings and I have the habit to see The Simpsons every Sundays  in the morning, when we are having breakfast. We know all the episodes and dialogues of the series.

Postgraduate Studies

Resultado de imagen para psicologia


Since I decided to study psychology, I thought about the fields I would like to study and work. I´ve been always interested in clinical psychology, but also, I liked everything related about children and teenagers, so I think I would like to do a Master on Clinical Psychology of Child and Youth, in a regular learning, because I think that is very important to be concerned about the worries and problems they could have. Many people think that the young people don´t have any problem, and this is not real, they can suffer like anyone, and if we don´t help them in time, maybe they will have problems in their adult lives, and it would affect their health,the relations with other people, and many things more. So, it´s important to resolve these issues in the childhood, before it is too late, and the things get worse.
I´m not sure yet if I want to study here in Chile, or abroad. It would be great to study in an English speaking country, because at same time that I´m studying my Master, I´m learning English, and the culture of the country. It would be an opportunity to study and travel.
But If I stay here, maybe it wouldn´t be so exciting, but it has its good things too, I would stay with my friends and family, or I wouldn´t have problems with the language.
This is the postgrade that I would like to do now, but I hope that it won´t be the only, because I´m interested in many other areas, and If I had money and time, I would study more.

My Future Job

Since I was very young I knew that I would like to work in a job helping people. When I was 15 I discovered my interest in psychology, since then my dream was study psychology, and in a future, could work with people who have problems. I´m not sure yet about the field that I would like to work, now I like the clinical psychology, but with the pass of the career, maybe I would prefer other fields.
I imagine myself working in a hospital or in a clinic, taking care of persons who need my help to improve their lives. I think that is something very important to us look after ourselves, not only our bodies and physical health, because having a good mental health, it´s essential to have a good life.
But also, I would like to work visiting communities, centres, and associations, in order to assist people in their social circles.
I think that it would be a  challenge for me, because I will see a lot of different people, with their own ideas, history, opinions, etc. maybe I will not agree with them, but I would be professional, and help them, because this is what really matter, give to other people the opportunity to improve their lives, their relations, and their health.

Election Day

Last year I turned 18, and it means that I could vote in the next elections. I´m not sure if I´m going to vote, I would like to express my opinion, but I want to do this informed about the candidates, and not voting for anyone. I think that if someone wants to run for a public position, he or she has to be a person involved in social problems, and committed to solve topics like education, health, the environment, etc. The problem with the present politicians is that they only think in themselves, and earn money at the expense of the people. And while they are turning into millionaires, the common people have to live with deficient systems of education, health, justice or pensions. Although there are some politicians that  really want to help people, but I think they are a minority. I believe that many people don´t trust in politicians because in the electoral campaigns they promise a lot of things like finishing  with delinquency, free education or improve the health system, and when they are chosen, they don´t accomplish the things that they promised.

I´ve never consider to be in a political party or be nominated in a public position, in fact, I don´t like politics very much, I prefer to participate and change the country in other ways, because politics isn´t the only way to be involved in the society.
