Learn a new language is very important today, it opens a lot of doors, it gives you a new vision of the world. English isn´t my favourite language, I prefer italian or ukrainian. These languages have an interesting "touch", when you speak italian, the pronunciation change the way you say the same thing, when you do it, you´re a new person, it's the same with ukrainian, from the way they write to the way they speak makes of this language an amazing thing to learn.

Let´s talk about learning english at university. At least for me it´s very good, It really helps me with my pronunciation and to write better. Write blogs helps me to organize my thoughts and write better as I said.
The aspects that I need to improve is my pronunciation, it´s hard for me to pronounce a couple things, I don´t know, maybe it´s because I used to practice other languages with a different pronunciation and intonation. It´s very different the way to speak english than italian, I´m used to speak more italian.

Outside the english class I use english every day, when I watch videos on youtube, reviews of fragrances, a couple videos of footwork (salsa), when I watch series (I usually watch series without subtitles), when I want to know something about a thing most of the times is in english, so I have to use it. Also when I text one of my friends from Lyon. I use it a lot, today English is an universal language, we must to learn and use english every single day.

Today doesn´t matter what, you must to know english if you want more opportunities for everything, as I said it opens a lot of doors, even knowing only spanish and english isn´t enough in some places, so why we should speak only 2 languages? It´s so interesting learn new languages and cultures. Learn any language only brings you good things.



Studying Architecture

For me architecture is a beautiful career, but there´s a lot of things that make it a very bad one.
this is my first years studying this career so I don´t know so much like others, until now the subjects are very abstract, they teach us about the different spaces, shades, how to describe an space in a good way, analize different parts of santiago and other things.

Without any doubt one of the worst things of study architecture is the workload. There´s days I don´t sleep at all, because I have to do model or similar. Yesterday I was dancing in the academy and literally I had to stop because I was so tired and I couldn´t do the combination, I felt my body so heavy, when it ended I went to my apartment to sleep. This is something very common in an architecture student´s life. Sometimes all the effort give us a good result, but sometimes it doesn´t.

we all know that in Fau we have a lot of problems, in some areas of the university it looks like it´s falling apart (and It´s!!!), It´s a very old building. We deserve a better place to study, it´s really shocking the contrast of FAU with FEN.

The teaching methods in fau is complicated topic to talk about, I have teachers that make me improve always, but i´ve had some "experiences" with a couple teachers that made me think I wasn´t enough and It shouldn´t be like this. Some of them shouldn´t be teaching, because they´re bad at it, it´s just simple as that.

Studying architecture here has pros and cons, but I still like the career.

When you have a pet  your life becomes better, dogs, cats, hamsters, the typical animals. Most of people prefer a "new" dog than a Street dog, it´s a shame. I think is neccesary to change this mentality. Buy a new better doesn´t make it better, just as simple like that. I prefer without doubt that adoption is better, buying a pet makes them an object, a thing i´m sure they aren´t.



Now we´re talking about pets, let´s talk about exotic pets. I think it depends of the conditions of the situation, I´ve read some situations where people save this animals, because they don´t have an opportunity to live in the nature. another case is just because people want to have it, to upload photos in their social medias, they don´t care about is their pet is good or if they have the right conditions to keep it.



Immigration, It doesn´t have any relation with the previous topic at first, but for me it does. Here in chile happens a particular situation, with people from a "Important" country for example Germany, USA, Chileans becomes the better host they could ever ask, but it´s the opposite with people from....i don´t know, Haiti for example. Chileans treat them like animals, they take advantage of their poor situation, most of the chileans becomes a nightmare. I hate them so much, this kind of people is one of the worst thing in the world. people who leaves all behind to get more opportunities for their families doesn´t deserve this. Not all the people have a good situation to be "legal", they just want to escape from their countries in some situations. It´s pretty obvious that I disagree with people like Trump.

The last topic I want to talk today is about the legalization of abortion in the 3 cases. My personal opinion is that people who have the power in Chile and make the laws seems to take womens as an animal who can´t have an opinion. For me women should have the power to decide what happens with their bodies and do something about it. However I have an internal conflict when I think it´s correct the proposition of make it legal in 3 cases, because in a situation like 2 teenagers have sex and she get pregnant, they should be responsable, confront the consequences and not abort. This a very complicated topic to be honest and I could be wrong, but hey! it´s just my opinion

2018 has been an interesting year so far. From study a new career to practice an uncommon dance.
These choices that I made changed my life in a good way, I´m happier than last year without doubt, i was in the wrong place if you know what I mean.


From study to become a dentist to an architect isn´t a small change at all, if you have the time to visit and know how the odontology faculty enviroment is you´ll understand. Architecture is not my first choice , but it's so MUCH better than the previous one. It was really difficult for me, my family wasn´t happy with my choice, mostly because my brother is doctor, my sister is studying medicine and I was the last one to follow that "line". Finally they understood I wasn´t happy.


The second choice that I made was to practice another dance, from salsa and bachata to pole dance. To be honest it was really difficult to find an academy not only for girls. My first day was.....I don´t know how to describe it....it was just weird. I was the only guy in the room. After a few weeks it got better, but some girls weren´t happy with a man around. I understand their point, but it´s not my fault, I really enyoyed pole dancing.
Let´s talk about the good things about pole dancing. It´s so good, it´s complicated as hell at first, but then when you can do an "x" movement that you´ve been practicing it´s really good.




There´s a couple things that made this year better than the last one, so until now it has been a good year, after this week or maybe in December I want to practice swing, it looks so fun....so why not?

Postgraduate Studies

When I think about it I do not know what to think, because it's not so important to me right now. Yes, of course it's very important, at the end it´ll be the field we'll improve our skills and try to be the best doing that, enyoying the job and always trying to find new ideas. Well.....it's not my case.

I want to do something different with my life, be an arquitech one day and then be a full time frelance artist. maybe a few years to meet people, contacts, different places to visit, factors that will be very important if at the end I decide to do it.

A subject or a field I want to dive into is Photorealism (portrait). I find it so interesting and difficult, it´s so good. The way it changes, different techniques, styles to do the same portrait, it's a whole world of possibilities. I LOVE it.

I would like to do study abroad, 3 cities with no particular order, Madrid, Lviv, Firenze. The different places with so different points of view makes these places so good to improve the different techniques. Firenze has a School very interesting, this school is just to improve portraits with graphite, by the way is my favorite technique to use. In Lviv lives an amazing artist who practices with ballpoint, the details, the way he create different tones is WOW. Back in Italy, lives a painter, my favorite painter without any doubt, his name is Marco Grassi. In Spain lives a girl who has an amazing technique with ballpoint, she creates beautiful pieces, her name is Eva Garrido

I would like to study side by side with these artists, because if I'm there I would bbe able to feel the passion of the artist, a new world of sensations, cultre, a lot of things.
