My future job

Today I'll be writting about my future job. Even though i'm studying psychology and I will be working as that, being a psychologist is not my dream. I've had a lot of dreams during my life, such as being a actress, a singer or a writer, but right now I've been discovering different artistic ways to express myself, such as painting and carving. So when I think about my future life I always imagine myself working in an atelier or having a small one in my house where I can do carpentry, prints and differents occupations that I will be discovering through time. I see my self working with wood, fabrics and different canvas. I will do it because it gives me so much pleasure while i'm doing it and joy when i see the final results. Also it is a really healthy way to express myself and I usually paint or carve to calm myself when i'm feeling anxious. So, I think I could get pleasure by doing this as my job. Anyway, to live by making art or handcraft is hard because it's not a stable job and you don't get a specific amount of money each month that you can count on to live. And even though I don't need many things, I have to pay for and apartment or a house and especially I'll be paying for my education at least 10 years from now (because chilean education system is terrible). So my solution I think will be doing this as a second job, while I work as a psychologist, but for sure I don't want that this more stable job to be taking all of my time.

    You sound a bit like a design student at FAU!

    A job that fills us and that allows us to be happy and strong every day, if yours is to work as a craftswoman, take that path

My post graduate studies

Today I will be writing about my post graduate studies. For a long time I thought I was going to Spain right after I graduate. At the time I didn't know what I was going to study then but I was sure I was was going to. Over time I realized that I didn't like studying (I mean, i love to learn but I don't like "the academy"), and that I was not that excited about the idea of keep studying after I graduate. So right now I'm hoping that it won't be neccesary to get my first job. Anyway, maybe when i'm working I'll realize that I need to learn new contents to keep doing my job or to do something else; but that I'll make that decision later and not right after I graduate. On the other hand, what I really like to do now, or when I graduate, or when i'm 30 or 50 is attending to classes or workshops to learn different skills and knowledge. I would like to learn more techniques to do handcraft for example, or learn another language. Right now i woul...

My favourite piece of technology

My favourite piece of technology is my car radio. I got it when my parents bought our car around 2 years ago. I use it when I go driving around my neighbourhood, but I principally get in the car for listening to music, because is one of my favourite places to do that. I do it whenever I feel like I have to do it, usually when I get a new cd or just want to listen an specific musician. I like it because it sounds so clear and you really get into the song. It's like having a space where you can be alone and listen to your favorite music for understing it. My life without it would be the same but I wouldn't have this time by myself and a place where the music sounds that perfect.

My favourite photograph

Imagen
This is photograph was taken by my friend Fernanda, who I deeply love with all my heart. It shows me with three dogs that I met on the beach. It was taken on last year's winter holidays and I like it because that day me and my friend took a walk on our pijamas, it was cold so we had to put jackets on, and we walked along the beach all the morning. Those dogs started following us, they were very friendly. We sat on the sand just watching and listening the seawaves, and those dogs joined us, they were also watching the sea, and while we were doing that my friend started tooking pictures of the sea, the dogs, the hills, and the rising sun. The both of us were in total silence, just enjoying that cold breeze, the dogs runing around us, and the sun appearing between the hills. We just contemplate the view and it was a very quiet and lovely morning.
