Changes to my Study Programme

When I think with what I am studying and where I studying, I think that I am in the best place in my country to study dentistry, be called by a “University of Chile’s dentist” is good, but do people think all the sacrifice that we do everyday to be titled? Being in university is not too easy, I think that is not good sleep less than 6 hours every days, being tired all day, all week, all the semester, study all day, travel hours to arrive at university. I think that the workload and the length of studies have to be less.

But without taking about this, I think the University of Chile is the best, has an excellent professional training.

Taking about the curriculum, I think that is too early to work with patients just in 3^rd year of university.

All the years, we have to pay a millionaire to have our work instruments, but what if a person doesn’t have the money to buy the materials? He or she get the minimum note, or worst, has to suspend the studies, then work to have the money and then enter again to university the next year.

The teaching methods are good, but the length of studies is horrible.

“Stress” is the most spoken word on university, I can’t imagine a person without stress in university, even the people that lives near of university and have more time to study.

In this country, we have so many things to improve the education, but something is stopping it…

Summer Holidays

All of my summer holidays are the same, my parents leave me alone in home with my brother, they go to their plot in January and February, my brother stay here working and me training, and when my trainer leave me free I go to the plot on south, it is in Lican Ray, which is a beautiful please, pacific, but in the summer there goes a lot of people and it is transformed to an unpleasant please, because it is small and in summer there is the half of people that lives in Santiago there, so we stay at plot on weekends (it is 5km from Lican Ray) and go to Lican Ray on week.

I always travel with my family and sometimes with my friends, I invite them to go with me for holidays.

In summer we stay in the plot, because there is some many things to do there, we go to the mountain, biking, swim in the pool, play sports, or just lay down and do nothing while we are hearing the sound of the nature. Some people thinks that these activities are so boring, some people prefers go to the beach, go to parties all days, being drunk all nights and bla bla bla, I like to go parties, but not like that, I prefer my plot. When it rains we go to thermal springs, and when it is sunny we go to Calafquen or Villarrica lake.

I had never worked on holidays, I make money selling pastry sweet, and people love it. I don´t study on holidays, I forget studies in summer, I just enjoy this 2 months of relaxing.

I would love to go to Hawaii, that’s some of my dreams.
