Why did I choose my major

    When I was a child my dream job, was to be a hairdresser or makeup artist, I always loved the things that had to do with aesthetics. Over the time, I started to focus on the inside, more than on the outside and I began to enjoy helping people around me, participating in volunteer work and getting to understand and connect with the other person. That is how I looked for careers that had to do with what I liked, and I got to psychology. 

Another option that I thought, before and after entering psychology, was veterinary medicine, mainly to be able to make an animal shelter, helping to respect their rights and to be able to recover animals in a state of vulnerability or hurt. Nevertheless, it hurts me a lot and I know that I could not take well to see an animal in those states, so my support I try to do it by other means.

My experience at the university has been quite pleasant, the professors have been mostly 10/10, as well as the courses, mainly those of the second semester. I've also met a good group of friends and I've really enjoyed getting together with them from time to time. I just hope that in a while the experience of studying at the university will be face-to-face <3

Himouto! Umaru-chan

Image
More than films, I tend to enjoy series much more, of which I have many to recommend, for example: GOT, Peaky Blinders, Friends, Gilmore Girls, etc. But the series/anime that I enjoy the most are the ones that are easy to watch without so much drama, as they are fun and uplifting for everyday life. An anime that I really liked in the above style and that has comedy is "Himouto! Umaru-chan", the manga was created by Sankaku Head and the director of the anime was Masahiko Ohta. The prequel to the anime has 14 episodes of 20 minutes each and the sequel has 12 episodes of the same length. The main characters are Taihei and her younger sister Umaru, who most of the anime is about, she is very beautiful and intelligent, she fulfils all expectations, as she does very well in academics and sports, but this "perfect" character has a secret. As I mentioned before, I like this anime and I recommend it, as it is fun and light to watch, it can make you smile and cheer you up...

Photo of the stars in Valle de Elqui

Image
When I traveled with my family to Valle de Elqui, I took this photo with my father, it was a difficult photo because I had never taken a photo like this one before and this kind of photos needs preparation for a good result. As you can see, we achieved to capture a shoot where we could see the stars, but in person the stars didn’t look like in the camara. In the photo the night sky looked deeper. It was taken in August 2021 in a short vacation where I had the objective of taking as many photos of the stars as I could. I really like this photo, because it was a beautiful moment with my family watching the night sky and it remember me the fun vacation that I had. Despite it was hard start to take this kind of photos, I consider it was a great result and this photo was a one of the best from the photoshoot.

Subjects

The truth is that I had a hard time thinking about which subject I enjoy studying, as I enjoy a few things from various subjects, but not everything from only one. After thinking about it, I could say that the two subjects I have enjoyed the most at university has been psychobiology and personality psychology. Psychobiology it’s about animal behaviour related to the past of humans and the behaviours that we still have today. What I liked most about this subject is that it focuses on the study of animals, and I really enjoyed analysing their behaviours and comparing them with the behaviours that humans still have. On the other hand, personality psychology has been a subject that I have liked, because I feel it is a good introduction to the psychology career, as we see the different paradigms that exist in this and the ways in which humans are seen and treated depending on the field in which you focus.
