My Academic Year

This year has been the most intensive and exciting of my life. Definitely this experience has two faces: the first one is that you begin a new stage in your academic and future professional life, but the second face is that you must make a big effort to do it. This process involves many aspects, like time, friends, family, books, new classmates, etc, and also the way that you can mix them and make your life. Now I´m going to talk about how has been this process for me, all the obstacles that I had to pass and these final time on mi first year at university.

First of all, I left school on 2007, and the next year, 2008, I prepared the " PSU", so only this year I begin the university. The first day I was so exciting! I knew my classmates and also the whole university, and I loved it!. But, unfortunalety, the next days I began to feel very bad. I was so scared with the university! I used to have other pace of study, not so demanding like this new one. My first three weeks were awfull! I didn´t want to go to the university, I only want to stay in my house. It was a very long abd hard process, but definitely I could get over this with many help. I recieve this help from many people, specially from my lovely family and friends, and I´m very grateful for that. After this period, I began to feel very well!, My fears dissapeared and I started to study with effort and perseverance. I finish the first semester with excelent grades, and I´m completely convinced that when anyone wants to be a better and stronger and also get over all the obstacles, he or she can do it!

The second semester has been the most difficult in my life until now. When I started, I thought that I will be more prepared to bear this semester, but I was absolutely wrong. At first, I was so scared for begin this process again, but also I knew that I had all the support from my family and my friends, so I decided to move forward and study with all my heart and soul. Actually I´m finishing this second semester, and I´m so nervous because I have and really big exam, but I know that If I study, I will pass this year!

Finally, I think that this year has been very adrenalinic and with many nuances. Really this year has had many thing! But definately the most important thing is that I found beautiful people. Also, I´ve learned so much! and that is very important for me. I think that any human been in his life wants to be someone alse, and I really thing I´m getting that! I hope that everyone of you read this blog, specially those that want to get into the University, because they will know that this is not a easy way, the recipe is be a neat person, with everything clear and have a lot of confidence in yourself!
Kisses and Hugs for everyone!

Obstetrics Challenges!

Well, today I think that is an amazing theme to talk about..... my career! specially all the important challenges that I must identify like a future health professional, and obviosly resolve when I finally start working like an obstetrician.
We are now in 2009, and everyone think and say that we are living the age of technology and development in all fields, but definaetly we have big problems. For example in africa the hunger index are very high!, so ..How can we explain that if we are living in the age of technology and development? In my country Chile, there is many kind of problems, specially in health area. If we go into the health problems, and also related with obstetrics, we have a big flaw in themes like technology, social matters, social opportunities and specially in education.
In Chile, the beginning of everything is the bad public education. I think that if the goverment were really interest in the students, we would have not so high rates of teenage pregnancy. These is very dramatic because, how I said before, the are " Teenagers". They are assuming a big responsability that is not adressed to them at that age. If they had had information about all the anticonceptive methods that exsist actually, they wouldn´t have to pass for these before the right time. The education is so important, everyone has the right to recieve good education, so I think that, like a future obstetrician, I will do many programs targeted to schools about sexual education. Now, these programs exsist, but I think that they are inefficient, so for that my programs will be very complete, including in this procces the whole family.

Chile has grown in health technology. I thing that everyday we have more possibilities to get a good health in our country, and not get it in other countries. But, unfortunately, not everyone has the opportunity to get it. These is so terrible because everyone has the right to get and excelent healt attention, and in our reality only the people who has money can get it. Like future obstetrician, my main mission is that the public healt have the same privileges as the private health. It´s not fair that for something economic someone has to die!


Well, I hope that you will be agree with me in this themes, an also, that you can be a valuable tool for you country and make something for you and your people!

Money!

Well, today is a very interesting theme to talk about...the money! I really have a special relation with it, because I believe that money is something abstract because is incredible that you can get something with a peace of paper! I don´t know, it´s a bit strange for me. But, for other way any human been can´t live without money! For instance..me. I really need money everyday, for example to get lunch at university, travel in "Transantiago" to everywhere that I need to go, so these kind of activities reflex that you really can´t live witout money.
In my case, I must be honest and say that I´m not so consciencious with money. In general I love to buy clothes, so when I have money, I can`t control myself and I buy it. This is a problem, because when I really need money for something importan, I don`t have! For this situation, I have learned this year and I´m sure that I´m a bit more consciencious about money. :)
When I see that my friends have money troubles, I don´t have any disadvantage to borrow them some money, because I know my friends and I know that when they have money, they will pay me back. That confidence makes that, only when is necessary, I have to borrow money from them, but I pay back soon! :)
I´m a very tidy person, so when I have to manage money, I`m responsable and I really like to do it. When I was in school, three consecutive years I was the money manager, so I don´t have any trouble to administering money.
Any human been has basic needs, like food, water, electricity. If this human been want to get this basic need, he must pay for them! so for that we have bills to pay. In my case, I live with my parents and I don´t work, so I don´t pay basic needs bills, they do that. But... BUT! I have to pay my personal bills like clothes, thinks like chocolates, or something that I eat at university, friend`s gifts, etc.
In general, I think that public and private schools MUST teach children how to use money!, independently if this responsibility relapses into the family. If we want to grow like a nation, we must make conscience about money and teach to everyone that money is something ephemeral! One day you can have everything, but later, you can´t have anything.
