How green am I?

I think is difficult for me to answer the question because it is a topic very important for the environment but we need to do this better.
I understand I can’t be totally green even if I try to do my best. We can´t do everything to help the planet because the live make us to get worst the environment. I said the life by the way we can’t change all our habits. We can’t to change the all the cars or all the buses for a cycle for example. In this moment of the world that is so difficult to do.  So we just can do it better.
Everyday I try to be conscious about water and electricity consumption. For example if I left a room always I turn off the lights. When I rush my teeth I don’t leave all the time water falling down.  Another thing that I do, at the university, I try to save the print paper that I don’t go to use anymore and I put it in containers for recycle.  Also, when I have batteries that are not working anymore, I put all of them on the batteries recycling box.
About transportation, I have to confess I am a little bit lazy because I don’t use to walk so much. So this is a point that I have to improve. But when distances are short, I try to walk and if it is in company of friends better!! Because is bored to walk alone. And to use a bike, I would love to use it, but I’m scared about to be crushed by a car.
I have never thought about joining an eco-organization, because I think environment is important but not so much for to be part of an organization. And I don’t have so much time for to do those things, and when I have free time I prefer to do other things that I really like to do.
I think in our society and especially in our country is missing to be more conscious about environment, about global warming and topics like those. We need to learn about this from the school years for to change the world and to change the human habits.

The sense of life...

The sense of life?
Wow I think it's hard to think about it ... is too profound!

I don’t really know what is the meaning of life, I think the age that I have is a little hard to say which is because I am just 20 years old, and I still have many things to live (I hope so). But really, at this point I think the meaning of life is what you want to do with your life. I always think I must live the way things are. See their good sides and bad sides, its positive and negative things. I’m sure always you have something to learn about it. Maybe sometimes you don’t understand why things happen, but I'm sure with time are explained. "Whenever things happen for a reason" and that something is always better for you, maybe you don’t really reach at the momento, but with the time you will understand why was it happening. I think everyone must just enjoy life, because there is only one, and it must to be profited! Carpe diem, but with careful!

French Children Don't Throw Food

There is a book called “French children don’t throw food”, that explains some interesting habits of the French children in contrast with the American ones. One of the habits is that the French children, passed the second month of life, can sleep all night trough without awaking. This is a wonderful attitude that I guess, any mother would wish. The writer of the book, Pamela Druckerman, a New Yorker journalist explains that this is caused because the tactics at the moment of hearing the cry of the baby in the middle of the night are very different. The American moms, when hears the baby cry, immediately runs to take him and make him sleep. The French moms are more analytical, she knows that the baby has two phases of dream, so, it’s natural that they wake in the middle of them. The strategy there is standing right him and let he be quiet alone… then will be fall sleep magically. Another difference between American and French moms is that the last ones, are not really interested in make social life with other moms of same age. This could be explained because they are more interested in taking care of the child instead making social life in that stage of the life. The main conclusion that Druckerman is able to say, is that the quiet you take care you child, the more obedient he will be, just ask the French moms!

How do I see my future life...

The way that I see myself in the future is obviously exactly as the way I want to be and what I want to do it in the future with my life. I think I really don’t have so many projects for me, but I’m sure that I have the same mains projects that everybody in the world must to have for themselves.
First of all I think in around 4 years I will finish my psychology career and then I will search a good job, when I said a “good job” It means I will have my own office to see my patients. It will be decorated really nice by me for to make it comfortable for my patients. At the same time, I will be still with my boyfriend, we will not be thinking about get married (there is so much time for that and It is not something important for us) but I’m sure we will be planning travels and making real all our dreams about to know different countries and enjoying the life together. After to travel and enjoy the time we will make a family. I will have two children and my parents will be very proud about me. I will be very close for them.
About my social life I will have my close friends from the university, we will meet us every single weekend to spend the time as old times and to speak about our special patients.
I see myself in 15 years as a woman very happy and proud about her life, profession and family. I will be very passionate about life and all things that I love to do.

Summer: Bikini and Sunglasses in JGM


Studying in a summer semester? Is not THAT bad actually. Of course there are some points that don’t help making it normal. But, there are traditions that will never be forgotten in order to having this “innovator” semester. For example, I will not read those texts in the middle of Christmas dinner, or making my investigation project while I’m sited watching the fireworks. Ok, it can’t be everything normal. I have thought that travelling in subway would be the worst thing to do, because the human warmth there is unbelievable. I hope this semester worth it and we get that for what we are fighting for: FREE, PUBLIC AND QUALITY EDUCATION!
My expectations for this semester are very positive. I think that would be nice this situation: 3 o clock in the afternoon, such a sun hitting us in our faces like a oven on his maximum warmth, and one friend yells: LETS GO TO VIÑA DEL MAR THIS WEEKEND! That would be a perfect idea, a quick travel to the beach just for having a great time.

I can´t die if I don´t visit Italy

There are a lots of places that I would liked to visit before I die, but Italy it’s really one of my musts places. I really wish to go someday  (I hope someday means soon lol) because I think it is a really interesting and magic country to visit. I love it's language and food. I also imagine that is a very happy country, and I would be very happy if I could eat pasta almost every day.

Another thing that I love about Italy is the architecture and history that the country has. I love the museums and churches just because their lovely structures.

If someday I have the chance to go there, I'd love to go with my boyfriend, cause he is a big fan of Italy too (and also loves lassagna).

I think I'll start saving some money so someday I'll reach my dream.

Mamma Mia!

My favourite dish is a tasty one right from Italy, and it's called "Lasagna". It's an italian recipe that is really famous all over the world because is typical to try it in every kind of restaurants. Actually i like all pasta's dishes, like "spaguetti", "ñoquis", and "lassagna", of course, I guess that pasta are my favourite family of food.
I will let you know how to prepare a perfect lassagna, the first step is to get the ingredient in the supermarket, and this are: Lasagna dough (you can buy it in any supermarket, and really sheap!), cheese, butter, tomato sauce, grinded meat, and personally i would recomend you to try white sauce and bay leaf to give it an amazing taste.. Mmmmm MAMMA MIA!
Once you have all the ingredients, you can start preparing your lassagna dish. First, you spread the butter on your ovenproof, then put a lassagna dough layer, then a grinded meat layer with the bay leaf between,to give it an italian taste, then add a white sauce layer and after a tomato sauce layer, then repeat this procedure until the ovenproof is full of this tasty ingredients. Finally, you MUST to add cheese, but a lot of cheese!! After this, put it on an oven and leave it there for fourty or fourtyfive minutes, it depends of the oven temperature. Wait while you prepare the table to eat... and JUST ENJOY!
Actually, I’ve never done this recipe by my own... but I’ve seen my mom and dad prepare it. Once mt dad prepare this dish, but he forgot to put the tomato sauce ahaha it was tasty too, but I preefer it with the sauce.
My dream is to prepare this dish to my boyfriend, because this is his favourite dish too. I wish you can try this dish, to experience the best pasta ever!
