Post 6 >> A Picture I like...

Okay, this was a really hard decision because I have a lot of photographs that I really really love. 





I took this photo in my house.The little kid is my niece and the other one is my father. They do not usually have a great relationship, but that night they were so friendly… that night there was a lot of love at our house, especially between them because they were really happy playing together with her toys, and inventing stories and telling secrets that didn’t tell us. It seemed that they were old friends of the same age, that all the days playing together at the garden… but that is not true, because she lives in Valdivia, and my father in Iquique. Anyway, they spent a great time that night.

The picture was taken this summer at our house. This was the second time my little niece was to my house in Iquique, and she wasn’t the only one who went there, her mom and my other sister went too. We had a great time gathering together, like in the old times.

Post 5 > Why do I want to be a vet?


Well, I want to be a vet because I really love animals and I really like to help. My story starts when I went to Liceo Camilo Henriquez and met my very best friend (who lives with me now). We had so much in common, and she loves animals too. We started dreaming together about our future, and what we want to do when we grow up. She wants to be a zoologist and investigate animals, and I want to be someone who can help other kind of living being, mainly in wild habitats. So, I don’t really want a job in an office, or a clinic… I want to go into the wild, and help animals that are in danger, to protect and save them.

I think I’m in the right career, because I had so many doubts about this dream, but now, I’m absolutely sure about what I am doing and what I want for my future…

 There is a thing that bothers me a little, the focus that this university gives to the career. Sometimes I think that they want us all to be in the business of production of animals (in all sense), and I really hate that. I hear the teachers almost always talking about “you are here because, ultimately, you want to help humans and worry only of them”, and I’m like “no! Animals feel, animals have their own life, animals can suffer... I want to help them, and to help our planet (obviously I don’t forget human’s troubles), I think that’s why I want to be a vet.
