Post 7: Changes to my study programme

Imagen
If I could change some things to my study programme surely I will change the curriculum, because I think some subjects aren't really that focused on Odontology and involve many hours of study and work.   Regarding the length of studies I'm quite satisfied, because I believe we need several years of studies to be sufficiently prepared to treat a patient. However, I think the workload is too much, there are days when I feel very tired and look like a zombie, so I would like to change the distribution of the workload, for example, by establishing a limit of evaluations per week that be respected by the different subjects. On the other hand, regarding online teaching and the use of technology I feel there are advantages and disadvantages. The main advantage in my opinion is that you can watch the recording of the class as many times as you want. And the main disadvantage is that sometimes teachers don't respect the established schedule, so that's an issue that obviously I

Post 6: Time travel to the past

Imagen
If I could travel in time, I would travel to the past. My grandfather died 10 years ago and I really miss him, so I would travel to my childhood, when I was 7 years old and he was still alive. And I believe I would go to his house or to his workshop, because I have never forget how happy he was there. Why would I go there? Because every time I went to visit him   he received me with a big hug at the door of his house, we played too much and always enjoyed delicious meals. With him I always felt safe and loved, it would really be good to see him again and enjoy his company a little more. I think I would go with my parents and my little brother, because I believe it would do us good to share with him again, enjoy his joy, hug him again and be able to tell him once again how much we love him. We were a very close family and we were always looking for excuses to celebrate, so we would probably have a big celebration, talk long hours and dance to our favorite songs. I don't know if

Post 5: My future job

Imagen
After finishing my university studies I would like to work as a dentist. I imagine it as a very entertaining and dynamic job, because each patient requires different treatments. I would like to work in a rural hospital practicing my profession. Therefore, this would be a job both indoors and outdoors, because I would like to attend patients both within the hospital as well as those who live in places that are difficult to access, visiting them directly in their house. I would love to travel a lot as part of my job and for the same reason I would like to work in a rural area, to be able to leave the hospital to visit my patients. Besides, if I had the chance to work in a university, I would do it without a doubt, because I'm good at teaching other people and also because I could work in labs researching something interesting. At the moment, I am not sure which major I will choose. I’m torn between forensic dentistry and orthodontics. On the one hand, I like forensic dentistry

Post 4: Wild animals and pets

Imagen
I consider myself an absolutely animal lover. In February of this year I adopted my first pet: a kitten named Rocío. These 4 months have been quite an experience, but the best experience of my life. My little Rocío is a very naughty and cute kitten, she loves to play hide and seek and climb trees. I think it isn't fair to keep wild animals in a zoo,  I consider each animal must live in its natural habitat, in full freedom. I love my freedom and with the quarantine I've realized how stressful it's to always be in the same place, I don't want to imagine how distressing it must be for the animals to be locked up for years.  I've never been bitten by a dog (fortunately), but one of my fears when leaving home is that this happens to me, because my friend Antonella have been bitten twice by a dog  and she told me it was so painful. However, I think it is depend on each owner if they decide to muzzle their dog, is their responsability. If I could be an animal I would c

Post 3: My childhood

Imagen
Whenever I eat raspberries I have memories of my childhood days. When I eat these fruits I remember my old house and its backyard full of plants, among them a raspberrie plant. Every summer with my parents we harvested its berries and baked tasty pastry. My best childhood memories are the afternoons of games with my friends, we used to ride our bikes together, we made camps with bed sheets, we played 'Luche' or hide and seek, etc. And I remember in summer we used to make water wars. We were a group of 6 close friends, but sadly in 2016 I moved. However, I still keep in touch with most of them and we're still good friends. I used to watch cartoons like 'Barney', 'Singing I learn to speak', 'Tom and Jerry' and  Walt Disney’s characters. My parents says I loved Barney and wanted to see the program all day. In fact, at one point they came to hate Barney and all his songs. When I think about my childhood only beautiful and unforgettable memories come to m

Post 2: The best concert ever

Imagen
  My very best concert experience thus far was seeing "Europe" live in Gran Arena Monticello on February 23th of 2018. I went with my father and we had a great time. "Europe" is a Swedish rock band founded by vocalist Joey Tempest and guitarist John Norum. In the first period of its existence, the group belonged to the genre of glam metal, but after the revival moved to modern hard rock and heavy metal. Besides, "Europe" was founded in 1979 in Stockholm under the name of Force. The general atmosphere was insane and electrifying, you could feel the hard rock in your blood. Throughout the whole concert I felt really amazing and I enjoyed it too much, because the show was a lot of fun, the lights were stunning, the song list was incredible, the band sounded awesome and the crowd was full of energy. An anecdotal memory is that at the end of the concert we met a relative that we had not seen for a long time, then we went to share some drinks and to talk about t

Post 1: A country I would like to visit

Imagen
Lights, music, joy and a lot of samba! These are some of the characteristics why Brazil is a famous country. I have never traveled abroad, but one of my dreams is to visit Brazil.  I'd like to visit this country because I' ve heard lots of people say that 'Rio de Janeiro' - one of the most important tourist place there is - is a beautiful city, with   incredible places and beaches, delicious food and good music. I know that Rio de Janeiro is famous for its carnival-which is one of the most important and recognize in South America- and its christ the redeemer statue. If I went there, I would like to go to the beaches, talk to the locals, drink caipirinha, learn dance samba and see the glorious Rio carnival with my own eyes.  Besides, Brazil is a famous country in the world of Odontology, whose Universities are world renowned, so it would to be great to live and study my postgraduate courses there.
