Blog 10 Final blog

Hello everyone in this occasion I’m going to talk about my experience learning English at University.

First of all, the last semester I learned how to use a blog, how write and edit the posts, and is very easy and funny. And in this semester I could keep learning about the online blogs, so in this subject I learn not only about the English, I learn too about the online blogs.

The experience learning English at university was very funny and I could learn a lot more.  I could practice my English because every Friday we must write some new blog. I learned new words and expression, and now I feel more secure about write in English. Of course, I have to keep learning more. My writing skills were improving because I practice a lot, and with every new blog, I feel more secure about it.

Also I practiced how to talk in English with every video. I learn how is the pronunciation of words that I didn´t know. That was very useful.

In the future, I would like to include another form where we can write in English, not only the blogs. I would like to include too some kind of revision of all the blogs, for we could know about ours mistakes and doing better the next time.

I would like to keep learning English in the future, especially about dentistry technical vocabulary for read papers and do conferences in scientist congress.

The experience of learning with my friends was a good experience

I hope you enjoy this post and see you in the next time. Bye.

Blog 9 Changes to my study programs

Hi everybody this s a new blog about changes to my study programs

Dentistry now is in a process of change, where it´s changing since an older paradigm to a new one. This change is globally but it´s recently in our country. For that reason, in Chile only two universities are changing them curriculum, University of Chile and University of Concepción. The changes in the curriculum have caused disadvantages and for that, I would like to change some things in my career.

First of all, I would like to change the organization of the subjects. The contents are given very quickly and sometimes, some contents have to be postponed because of time. This is serious because already has happen the teachers assume that we know contents of the last years but we don’t know it, so we have to study extra contents that doesn´t corresponds to us. Also the stress and the mental pressure of learn a lot of content in a very short time, are doesn’t healthy.

On the infrastructure, I would like to change the classroom into a modern classroom with better technology. Also I would like to improve the air-conditioning system, especially since October.

Also I would like to add more recreation areas for the students and more option to lunch.

In the library I would like to add more study rooms and make a bigger library.

Finally on the courtyards, I would like to add more vegetation like grass or trees, and improve the view of the Faculty.

I hope you enjoy this blog and see you on another occasion. Bye!

Blog 8 Summer Holydays

Hi everybody this s a new blog about my summer holidays.

For me summer holidays are a synonym of beach trips. With my family on every summer we go to the beach someday. We often go to Antofagasta, Iquique or Arica, and we use to have a good time together. But not only we go the beach, on every summer we go to visit my dad´s family in Santiago, so since i was a kid, I came to Santiago every summer, for that doesn’t was so difficult to me get used to this city. But my better memories of my old summer holidays are the long hours with my friends when we went to ride a bicycle. We used to go to the river and pass the day in there.

Now, on my summer holidays I go to visit my family, and we go the beach some days. I´m counting the days are left. The weather in Santiago is different to the north; the heat of this city is suffocating.

Also the summer holidays are for rest, is the time of year that we can sleep late. Also we can go out, do sport and watch a lot of movies.

The summer holidays are very necessary to me right now.

In the future I would like to travel to a very relaxing place. But the thing that I want more is have free time for do anything that I want.

I hope you enjoy this blog and see you in another occasion. Bye!

Blog 7 An interesting pictures of myself

Hello everybody, in this occasion I`m going to talk about an interesting pictures of myself.

It was difficult to choose a picture for commenting here, but finally I chose this. It`s a picture of me and my sister when we were kids, a long time ago. The picture was taken in 2003 when I was 7 years old and my sister was 3 years old. I don`t remember exactly when was taken but it could be in that year because one of my front tooth was missing.

I chose this picture because it`s one of more old pictures that I have with my sister. I have only one sister and we have a close relationship. You can notice in the picture that we were very similar, although now we aren`t. But some people say that we are very similar now. I don`t know.

Because the picture was taken in 2003, it was a printed picture. So my mom scan it and she post it in her Facebook. I don`t know why she did it, it was a little embarrassing, anyway I like the picture and now I have it in digital, nice.

The next year my sister will came here, to live with me because she wants to study here too. So the next year surely we will have more pictures of us and we can do a comparison with this picture, is going to be fun.

I hope you enjoy this blog and see you in another occasion. Bye. 

Blog 6 Postgraduate studies

Hi everybody, this is a new blog about the postgraduate studies that I would like to do.

I`m now in the second year of my career, so I haven`t had classes of all the subjects and areas of the Dentistry, so probably in the future; maybe I will want another thing.

For now, I would like to study Oral Pathology. Of all the subjects that we have had, the ones that I like more are Pathology and Physiology. So I would like to do something in the future related with those areas.

There is a dental specialty related with the Pathology, in fact, its name is Oral Pathology. This dental specialty is in charge of the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of all the pathologies of the teeth, tissues and bones of the maxillofacial territory. I like it because the clinical cases are varied and in my opinion, are the most difficult cases. Also, I could help to the people in that things that are more serious.

About the Physiology, there is not a dental specialty of Physiology, but for work in that area you have to do a Master or a PhD and do investigation and university teaching, so this is an option too. This a little different that the first option because here are not in contact with patients, but you can help to, since the investigation and creating new knowledge that it will be useful for the treatment of same sickness.

Anyway, I have time to decide, maybe I will change my option in the future, but for now this are the postgraduate studies that I would like to do.

I hope you enjoyed this blog, and see you in another occasion. Bye. 

Blog 5 My future job.

Hello everybody welcome to this new blog. In this occasion I’m going to talk about my future job.

In this moment I`m studying dentistry so in the future I`m going to work like dentist. But in the dentistry, there are a lot of specialties and occupational areas. Everyone has same area where they want to work in the future, based in abilities or personal tastes, but I don`t know where I`m going to work, because I like almost all the specialties, I would like to do all!

But the areas that I like more are the Endodontics, Pathology and Maxillofacial Surgery. I like those specialties because I like the theory, the clinical practice and also there are funs. Also, in my opinion, thats specialties has the most difficult and unusual clinical cases.  But I haven`t decided for one.

I would like to work not only in clinical, another area that I like a lot, it`s the investigation and university teaching. For do that, is necessary to do same post grade like a Master or a PhD. In this university are all the studying programs that I want,  so It`s more difficult to choose one.

But I`m just in the second year and I haven`t had the enough class for decide; I don’t know right all the specialties and occupational areas on dentistry. So in the future, surely I will know where I`m going to work.

I hope you enjoy this blog and see you in the next time, Good bay. 

Blog 4 What I really into.

Hello everybody, this is a new blog! In this occasion I’m going to talk about what I really into.

It is difficult choice one topic that I like more than others topics. But one thing that I really like and enjoy a lot, is the beach. I like the sea, the sand, the sun, everything!

I lived one year in Antofagasta, a port city in the north, and when I was living there, on every free time that I had, I went to the beach. Antofagasta has nice beaches, but there are not only for swimming or to relax, also you can do different sports, like surf, beach volleyball, scuba diving, etc. Antofagasta has a tropical weather, so in a hot day, there is not a better choice that go to the beach.

Also that I like a lot, is the sea sound, There is nothing more relaxing that the sea sound. It`s really good go the beach and read a good book. Another thing that I like are the seafood, It`s unthinkable to me, go to the beach and not eat fish, I don’t understand that people that when they go to a port city, eat roast chicken or things like that, they are not enjoying the beach!

My perfect holydays are a few days in a port city, and much better if they are in the north of the country.

Thank for read my blog, and I invite you to visit the port cities of the north. See you in another occasion.
