I think that the topic about jobs in this moment of my career is very important, well I guess it is more important for my family because they always said: What do you do when you go out to the University??? And I have to say there I´m not sure yet.

I think that get a job in this career is very difficult for many reasons. First, I believe that the work´s area is limited but at the same time is too expand. Another reason, in this country the culture is not well pay. Well, obviously that is my opinion, I really think that get a job in this profession isn´t easy, because there isn´t a lot of opportunities, so for get a space in this area you have to work hard. Besides, you need to be able to work in art, and you have to find your speciality to concentrated in this subject in a hundred percent. For that reason I think you need, at least, to do a master degree. In this career (and I think like in many others) you should keep studying all the time because you can´t to be left behind.

Now, I really think this career is not good enough to get a lot of money or even a good job, it is just for love!!!

Well I guess in the future I would like to work in something related with my professional career. I have been think in the curator´s job. I would like to work as a curator in a famuos Museum. I think this job is amazing because is great to be so close to the paintings and work with differents artists side by side.

That´s all, see you next!!!

My opinion about English class is very positive in many aspects. First, the class dynamic let you interact with your classmates, so this way you can practice the language and to become more fluent. Well, how I said before, at the first time I feel very embarrassment when it was my turn to talk, but gradually I became to feel more confidence.  That’s was another something good to the class, because for many people is very traumatic talk in others languages, and I'm one of those people!!! Well, I have to recognize that I this moment I don’t care so much what people think. Talk in English to me, now, is not so terrible.

This year I have learnt a lot of this language, things are new for me like slangs, every day expressions, despite I'm conscious I have to study more about grammar and vocabulary. Talk about grammar and vocabulary; I think blogs help a lot in this case because you are in a constant training of writhing.
To me, English class is one of the motivations to go to the University, because, to be honest, I'm so tired of the art career that I don’t have mood to go on studying. So, English is one thing that became part of my happiness to this moment.  Is very stimulating to me because I always liked to learn English, it was one of my favourite subject at school.

Well, the class has been very useful to me because in these days I'm studying Hangeul and my teacher doesn't speak Spanish so I have to talk with her in English. In the future, I would like to go to study a MBA in Korea, to do it I have to apply for a scholarship, so I need a high English level.

Well that’s all, thank you for all these time and the good moments, but mainly for the knowledge that you gave us!!!!!  See you next….

Well in my case one of my guilty pleasure are k-pop or the new Korean culture, (is how they call all this new movement about music and TV programs). Mainly, a guilty pleasure refers to something we enjoy despite its incompatibility with our own or others, higher standards. We incline to believe a product is low-quality and by accepting the uncomfortable truth, we are absolved by the shame of savoring it. Some tastes are legit, some tastes are not. On the other human side, we listen to what we like and our tastes in music speak for ourselves. Our choices define us: clothing, music, interests, etc.  In my case I’m art student so it’s supposed I must have a good taste about music or things related with art and culture. But, why we need to suppress them?
Is truth, we can say that k-pop is an inferior genre. But, on the other hand k-pop picked up the hint, making itself delectable, be it on a musical and visual level and, why not, a sexual one too. Its acts are a full treat. Entertainment companies are meticulous with their material, offering what they consider to be the object of our affection: attractive and charismatic singers, (well, the first time when I saw the actors I though they are too gay!), learnable dances and intriguing personas to care for. Furthermore, the world they present to us is carefully manufactured and scrupulously decorated: HD videos, weekly appearances on music programs, drama MVs, variety shows to keep us busy. In short, plenty of money and effort goes along with delivering the final product. K-pop is like pop in USA, only it is not too dominant like the american pop industry, but it is very similar.
Actually, they (k-pop bands) came to Chile, to Viña the last weekend with a TV show called Music Bank.
Please don’t say to anyone about my guilty pleasure!!! Well, in fact in this moment I’m studying Korean because some day I have to go there!!!

Hello!!!!
Is true, the last generations are more conscious about the environment and recycling, but this is not my case because I don’t do enough for the environmental, for example: In my home we don’t have the habit to sort the trash for recycling, I smoke a lot so… On the other hand I don’t throw trash on the street and I’m conscious about the water, besides, I’m not agree with some people who prune their trees too much. 
However I think that I don’t produce so much carbon, because in family we don’t have a car, we try to use the subway. We are carefully with the electricity and in a future I would like to buy one of these solar panels.

Well I know how important is in this time to do something for the environment, and I think Chile is short about environmentally friendly practices but I have to admit that many people is conscious about it and they are working hard for keep green areas. 

How you are expecting I don’t be part of any eco-organizations, mainly because (and to be honest) I don’t have many information about them, but when someone of this organization contribute something interesting to me I will think about it.

Anyway, I think this is a really important topic to our life, because all we know about global warming effects. In facts I believe in Chile we don’t have- yet- a good law about the regulation of carbon, basically because it is the principally responsible of the climate change.

BYE!!!
