Changes to my study programme

Imagen
Like I said before, I study biochemistry in the faculty of chemical and pharmaceutical sciences, in the university of chile, and I have to say that this university is very popular and is called one of the best in the country, but my faculty leaves a little to be desired :c.  The buildings are in disarray, because it started as a small faculty, and as the years passed, the different buildings were built one by one where they could fit, so this provoked that the place look messy and there's no space to put more things. It's difficult to find things, even if the faculty is small. This also mean that there's just a few places with grass when you can sit. As well there's a few places to sit and eat, and they are always used, so i only can eat sitting on the grass with my friends :c. The diner is so small and that makes it so difficult to walk and eat there, because of the large lines to buy and pick up lunch.  Also, there are f...

Time travel

Imagen
If I could travel in time I would like to go to the past, specifically to the my chemical romance concerts in 2006, where they toured for their concert the black parade. Those concerts were so cool, it's one of my favorite albums so in my opinion the music is great, I love the outfits they wore, also the band members were very entertaining on stage. I would also like to go a little before 2004 when they published their album Three cheers for sweet revenge, also an amazing album, which was published a year after I was born, so it was a little difficult for me to go see them xd. I would really love to see a my chemical romance concert live when they were young, I was too young at the time to even know them, so when I started liking them they had already broken up :c (Just as a curious fact, they came back a couple of years ago, but they haven't come to Chile and I don't have the money to see them in the USA :C) So I would like to go to 2006, just to be able to hear Gerard Way...

My dream job

Imagen
  My dream job is to work in a laboratory. I know it is somewhat ambiguous, there are many ways in which one can work in a laboratory, but I would be very happy working in a chemistry and/or biology laboratory, doing research, taking samples, doing reactions, wearing a white coat and doing very scientific stuff. In fact, I like laboratories so much that I am slowly turning my room into one jskjsk, for now I only have 3 flasks and a beaker, not much, but it is a work in progress. I really like science, and being at the university has only confirmed to me how much fun I had in the laboratory projects, like in the biology labs, or the organic lab (that was one of my favorites), or even in analytics lab (i don't like that subject, but the lab if very fun), which are the closest thing to working in a real laboratory. I think that to achieve this dream I will have to finish my degree first. I know that in the area of ​​science the best way to get hired is by how many papers you have...

The best concert ever

Imagen
The best concert I've ever been to it was actually yesterday, September 27, 2023 , the concert of the band Ghost in the Movistar Arena. Ghost is  is a Swedish metal/rock band, whit an interesting history created around. Within the band's fictional story, they are a satanic church trying to find followers for their cult. I know that sounds a bit strange, but it's just a performance, they're not actually a church dedicated to serve the devil. I think the history they created around them it's actually pretty funny and make the band more interesting.  Like i said, yesterday I had the opportunity to attend their concert in Chile and it was magical, the sound was impressive and they played many of my favorite songs. Ghost's stage presence is impressive and they put on a show that anyone can enjoy. They make you dance and sing, and I love it so much. I was so happy and I enjoyed it so very much, it was one of the best days of my life.

A country I would like to visit

Imagen
A country i like to go is  Belgium. Is a small Western European country located in the heart of Europe, Its capital is Brucella and is mainly spoken french and Dutch, but there are communities where German is spoken. I think the most interesting part about belgium its the  architecture,  with its Renaissance and Gothic styles, Its landscapes are medieval and look like a fairy tale.. I would really like to walk through its beautiful streets and learn more about what it is like. I think it would be very interesting to be able to go to study or work in Belgium, I could learn a new language, in a beautiful country. The capital, Brussels, has been voted among the 50 best cities for students in the world. I n fact someone I know managed to do it and telling me about his experience has only made me want to do it more.  So,  In the future it would be a dream to go to study in this storybook country.

  Sigma aldrich is an instragram account that post about different molecules and make a little description about them.  URL: https://instagram.com/sigma_aldrich?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I personally like a lot this account because, leaving aside the fact that the posts are aesthetically cute, it teaches interesting facts about the differents chemical molecules, like they're different physico-chemical properties, where do they come from, medicinal properties (if they have it), the history around them or fun facts about them. It shows you the chemistry that surrounds you. This account  can tell you about molecules that seem complex and that you might think you only find in a laboratory, but in reality they are in things that you consume or use every day, and I find that very interesting,  because it shows you that the chemistry ir everywere. I think it's a really fun way to learn a little about chemistry every day. I like that I be just using instragram and a post ...
