BLOG 4: THEMATIC POST - NATIONAL HOLIDAYS (SEPTEMBER 18th)

Everything starts with a Friday 15 and the “Quimifonda”, from there, I knew that I was going to be well, the only one that I found at these parties was that the holidays were very short (in my opinion).

Now, let's begin, as I already said, in our faculty there was a kind of “fonda”, which I enjoyed with my friends, who, to tell the truth, were lost in a moment! Jajajajajaja Finally, everything quiet until the 18th, we went to the countryside to spend with the family of my brother-in-law; We ate “anticuchos, empanadas, pebre, mote con huesillo”, we dronk "terremotos" (typical drink of this date) and the most entertaining, we had fun with a couple of typical games of the festival! Throw the rope, the table calls, gimkana, etcetera, never imagined that everyone would dare to play! Hahahaha

For the 19th, with my friends we got together and went to the "Fonda del Nacional", there were MUCH people! In that place take advantage of eating me a ”empanada de pino”, a choripan and an anticucho hahaha but before all that, we dared to get up to electronic games like those of “Fantasilandia”... WE HAD SO good, we laughed too much and enjoyed every moment.

In short, it was an 18, very moving and entertaining. I took advantage of enjoying it with whoever I most loved and of course, eaten and danced, no one takes it from me! VIVA CHILE MIE...!

Blog 3: Favourite movie

Always I like all movies (except horror films), but especially if they are of action, psychological thriller or suspense. One of my favourite movie is called "Inception" by Christopher Nolan. Simply it's AWESOME, It's plot, special effects, the content it's extremely interesting, because they speak of dreams, and how to handle them.
Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a fugitive thief that which specializes in infiltrating dreams to steal ideas, code to banks, etc. In a mission, Dom and his team (Ariadne, Arthur, Eames, Saito) are contracted by a company, leadered by Saito (a Japanese). The objective is to convince Robert Fischer, son of the owner of the rival corporation of Saito, to end the empire of his father, but unexpectedly the operation is detected by the victim, and the mission gets out of hand. 

You have to be pending all the time of the movie, because every details, little detail, it's important for the plot and the final. And best of all, is that it plays with your mind!

This movie is from 2010, but I think that I saw in 2011, and since that time I love it.

Blog 2: The best concert ever

When I read the tittle of this blog, intermediately a moment came to my head. In November 2015 I was to my first concert of electronic music "Creamfields". It was in Espacio Riesco, yes.. in Ciudad Empresarial, quite far from where I live, but it was so my emotion, that there wasn't doubt that he had to go.
When I bought the ticket, I didn't know who was coming, that is to say, you buy "en verde", but for my surprise, CAME THE DJs I WANTED!! Nervo, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, DVBSS. The latter is a Canadian duo formed relatively recently (2012) for the brothers Chris and Alex Andree; his genre in the electronic music is EDM, occupying the post #24 by magazine DJmag.

That long awaited Friday arrived, it was night, many lights and just electronic music for enjoy. I was go with my friends, all of them over 18 years old, because this festival had this restriction. We passed it, SENSATIONAL! I still remember when I heard "Never Leave" and I got crazy jajaja. And although we enjoyed it to the fullest at night, it became very short.

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit

Since I can remember, I would like visit many country, being my favorites: Australia and USA. Well, my uncle and his family live in Sydney and he told me that this place is amazing. Starting with security, that in my opinion is very important, because in Chile, when I walk the street, everyday I have to be worried for my things: my cellphone, wallet, whatever; and I don't feel secure, thinking that someday, somebody steal me or something worst.

Anyway, following with that interest us, this place are my next destination. In a beginning, I would like go to on vacation to visit to my family, and later I would like work or study to stay there, because my sister have the same idea, so I wouldn't live alone, although we have to talk it well.

In 2016 my two sisters visit USA without me😢 (I was in the university), and when they were there, they sent me many videos to the different amusement park, or locale that they visit. For me it was a torture, because I wanted be to have fun, learn or enjoy the wonderful place that the world has us ready.

From the invisible to the visible world and back...

Glass is an inert substance (which acts as a natural barrier against bacteria), hard, brittle, and amorphous made mostly from silica sand (SiO₂), sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) and limestone (CaCO₃), melted at high temperatures with borates or phosphates.

It's colour varies depending on the ingredients used in its manufacture, so it can be transparent, translucent or opaque.

Glass is a material that by it's characteristics is easily recoverable and classified according to it's colour, among the most common are transparent, green and blue.

Although the glass is made from relatively inexpensive raw materials, the extraction of the materials causes a significant impact on the landscape, however, recycling helps to reduce this problem. It should be mentioned that this material, like no other, can be recycled as many times as you like, without ever losing its properties.

In our case, almost entirely or most of the laboratory instruments are manufactured with this material and sometimes is used a special glass prepared to withstand high temperatures (Pyrex) or certain chemical aggression.

This substance is very interesting, has a broad content, has infinite applications and sometimes being so common, because wherever we go we see it and many times we do not know what is actually composed.

In my opinion, it's a very clean material compared to plastic, where is the last, can generate interactions with matters that contain it, in addition to delivering grater durability and freshness to the products by not being porous. Also have multiple uses, for example in jewelry (crystals), architecture, cars and until to appliances electronics.

The most enjoyable subject ...

If I put myself to think about the subject that I liked the most in the university was certainly "Laboratorio de Química General II" I have very good memories, I had a lot of fun. Together with my friends, we agreed to choose the same section, so we were all together, they were just practical works, although at the beginning of each class they gave us a little theoretical introduction.I have always liked being in the laboratory, since it is the best way to see chemical reactions, how they happen, what happens, etc ... and what better when you connect with what you already know. The most entertaining and interesting of that laboratory were the colors, textures and states of the different reactions; And the shapes that could have the crystals that we created in some cases.It was evaluated with reports and controls, that was when it became difficult, since we had to relate what was learned in class with what was seen in the laboratory, and although it was sometimes complex, we took it forward ... well, most of the we were there, approximately 100 people.

Person you admire

This men is my rolemodel, he is 57 years old, is a good father and he has a 3 beautiful daughters. Titled of Pharmacy in Universidad de Chile, to this day, he work playing his career, attending a pharmacy in the commune "El Bosque".
If you ask me why go study this career, this person is the reason, because he transmits me the passion he feels for his work and one day I wish I could help him. If I could explain us how I transferred the love of chemistry and the laboratories, he would know that is one of the most important people for me and I say it "Thanks you, because I love that I study today".

I I can explain everything he knows! He is a: gasfiter, mechanic, carpenter, sportsman, teacher, chemist, friend, etc.. It's a dictionary with legs. And despite being a little stubborn or bad fleas, he is the most valued that I have.

Thank you for everything you have taught me and thank you for being my dad!
