About my study program

Well, journalism is weird if talking about the study program, like, is difficult for me to talk about it because has an exceptional duality! 

In my opinion, depends a lot on the teacher, always. About the curriculum, it's really complete, although sometimes it is paused due to different situations, but normally we had a complete experience, maybe some are always more stressed than others, but that really depends on the teacher, sometimes it is not fair to some, but it is what we must obey. 

The CECO (student union), is really fighting a lot for us and the academic load issue, so I feel that it is a problem that will be solved in the long run. Everything about the differences between sections or injustices in classes, etc.

It's been a while since we officially became a faculty, although at least I've felt a bit of a change in the environment. About infrastructure, perhaps there is still a lot to change, or perhaps there is a lack of resources, but I know that it is a change that will take place over the years, perhaps this faculty will be great when I already have a degree (this is so sad, haha). There are hopes.

But the good side is...! that we have very good computer rooms, in my opinion. Some are more complete than others, but at least we have what is necessary to work comfortably.

about the cameras and all that stuff, it's another topic. :(

Time travel to the past or the future?

All my life I've trough a lot about this question, really! but definitely, my answer is to travel to the future. Why? 'cause I can study the past, I can read about all the history, sure, not with details but we know what happened in his time, but the future is a different topic. 

I really want to travel and see what happened with the world, with the technology, with everything. Maybe Chile is not the best thing ever, but something will happen. Can you imagine it? wake up one day and see the TV or social media, and see a new world? 

Of course, is kinda scary to travel to the future, and for that, I just want to travel for a few years, not a lot. Like, just 30 or 50, to see what happens in that time. Especially in Europe and Asia, is fascinating how much technology moves over there.

But I'm not sure if I stay in the future, depends a lot on everything. For example, what is the situation, what happened in all that years, is better, is worst? if the world is still alive! there are so many factors that can influence the final decision. 

I'm indecisive and scared, so, if the future is really bad for sure I travel to the present in a second. 

My dream work

 My dream is work in journalism, the career I'm studying. I imagine it as something fun, especially on television, but for that I keep learning to be more expressive.

That's my problem, in short it's hard for me to express myself in front of the camera and I don't like that, in classes I'm working on that, but it's still not possible.

As for the salary, I don't have much hope, but I see it as something I would like to do, mostly because I would like to get into music journalism. Meet musicians, content creators, people that I now see on my cell phone. I think it's a dream that I have when I was little, I always wanted to be involved in this topic, but it's not something that I would have dared to dream until now that I took the first step.

I would really like to, before I thought about entering political journalism, but it was not what I really wanted. My dream is to enter the world of entertainment in journalism and interview the people I admire. I hope that in the future I will be there, I will be happy working on television or any media that allows me to meet all those people. especially singers and streamers.

That's my dream job!

The best concert

The best concert of my life: Louis Tomlinson World Tour, in the Movistar Arena (May 15, 16 and 17, 2022). He's favorite artist, I follow him since One Direction, like 2012. Now, his music is pop rock but before was more pop style and it was his first solo line, so yes or yes he had to go.

It was a very special concert, I remember it was the first time I saw him in person (in total I've gone to 6 concerts of him), the atmosphere was incredible too, everyone cares about everyone, and everyone too sang all the songs in acapelle. When he took the stage I was really excited, and the public even more. Everyone screaming.

 I enjoyed it for everything, for the people I met, for the songs and because I was making real a dream. At the same time, I make alot of friends.

Like a random data: I was also able to go to the airport to meet him (I was there all day)

I really hope see him again.

A country I would like to visits

I think the best answer to this question, for me, it's Brazil.

In 2019 my mom travel with his friends to this country, and when she was back all his stories were incredible, like, I fall in love with the culture and all she said about it. At that time I can't travel for my age and college (was the first week of class, a little irresponsible travel in his time) but now I'm an adult, so is a dream to go here.

I like his diverse culture, the joy that everyone talks about, and the tropical claim. I don't know a lot bout them, no more than a tourist knows, but I like to know more about the countryʼs history. 

I would like to travel to Brazil just for vacations, it's not a dream to live or work here, I have friends and family who can give me accommodations, but for the moment it's only a funny plan with friends or family. No more than that.

A good year?

 I don't know how to explain this year, next question.

Joke (not really).

But weeeeeell, if I think about that quickly, yes, I've definitely had a good year and it's for sure this year wanna be my best. But it's curious, because if I wait a second and think carefully about every second... the answer maybe it's not the same.

In my life I'm used to always have a really bad thing before than the good one. It's like my balance, for example: I lost my eartphones BUT, got new clothes (didn't really happen but things like that always happen).

I have had very good moments, and I'm sure that this year will end really well, but maybe in moments I got a stressful situations.

I lost alot of friends in a moment of the year (i don't know how we're in june), and maybe in the university had a bad moment for works, same in house. AND IN THE OTHER SIDE, the most part of my dreams are getting real thanks to many things and people I met. Like when in a serie we got a new season and new cast, that level. 

And I don't know if everything and everyone always be like this and now I'm more aware of my surroundings, or this year it's really the good one. 

But maybe it is, and maybe I got a good year (until now). 

But speaking about my achievements or things I want to mention, I would like to mention that I may travel abroad with my friend for our favorite singer :) I hope it goes away and then, finally I can say that I have definitely had a good year.

My favorite class

 Well, talking about studyng, my favorite topic in all my class maybe are... photography? I'm not sure.

Classes are very interesting and interactive, radio i it's so cool and drafting too, but photojournalism it's on another level (in my opinion) like, we need see the world and take a photo about him, look at everything and everyone for the perfect image, and I love it.

I think that in the future, maybeeee, could be part of this. Be like Sergio Larraín, a fast career but making who everyone remember me (but not the part we're I become sad and part of a weird cult). 

In photojournalism we see about technique but practice always first, Marcela Anabalon it's a really good and lovely teacher. I learn a lot from her and in the future, it would be an honor to continue seeing how she work. 

In conclusion, my favorite class in all the semester, it's photojournalism. Simply amazing, maybe stressing in a moments but always the results are excitings. The best of my second year.

Plus: Still loving all my class, I need back to the university.
