my faculty!

As i said in a previous post, I study at the University of Chile and this is distributed in many faculties in the metropolitan region and among these is the faculty of veterinary! The faculty of veterinary is located in what is called South Campus, this is in the south of Santiago in the town of La Pintana.

I love my faculty! because I like to have many green areas, which is away from all the noise of downtown and thanks to this we have a place with animals (and a cafe ajajaj) called "mundo granja", as if we were in the downtown animals may become stressed due to noise and pollution >< . but like my teammates, I think there are a few things that could change in order to improve the faculty such as our library! we need more books and better computers to work, and that the library doesn’t close so early (I know that we are far from the center of the city, but that the U could put a bus approach, even to the underground!), another thing that I think should improve the management and care of the dogs we have, and dogs that people come to throw away to the U (sad but true). Other things may change as the cafeteria, having more teachers, have more time to take electives (and more electives within our university), more practical (or last longer), reevaluate the curriculum(in terms of duration the career and the classes we need), try to control flies in the rooms because it is very annoying > <! There are many things to do, I believe that to improve our beloved faculty must work together!. Obviously, as students can not take decisions, but they could hear the things we say and take them seriously (as they often ask us and nothing changes) I don’t think that our ideas are crazy and we could improve our faculty and make it better for all :)!

dreams dreams .-

when i think if i had some money extra (or just win lottery :P) i would like to do a lot of things like buy a car or a house, clothes and a lot of sneakers! jajaja and the other thing is travel around the world!
i would like to visit a lot of countries 'cause of the fact that i want to know everything about the ancient civilizations! and also see the new stuff that the country can offer! the first country that comes to mind is Greece, I would like to know every historical monument in the country, not only for its architecture but also the stories behind each of them, visiting museums and historic cities, including athens, to see the acropolis, the parthenon and the agora :)! another country would be Italy, but not only for its historical content, but also for its food :P but one of the countries that i would like to go in this moment is USA, i know is "common" country to visit and it doesn't have great things to view like other countries but the only reason that i like is for the dance academies in L.A or broadway! that's my dreaaaaaaaaam! jaja.
i hope someday we all realize the dream of traveling to other countries :) take care people :D!

the new face of stgo!

In my experience with the yellow buses and the transantiago, I must say I like a lot more buses now that the buses from the old system because, in my opinion, the yellow buses have more disadvantages than advantages as the fact that drivers managed money, which made ​​them more susceptible to thieves, another problem was the fact that they had no bus stops, which sometimes resulted in fights with the driver because it didn’t stop when you rang the bell, was also the problem with contamination of the buses which was very bad because the smoke got to enter the same bus at times! One of the things that I liked the old system was that with a single bus could arrive at different places, but now is very complicated to get to a place because you have to take more than one bus and the subway!

When transantiago began, it was in the summer of 2007, was a CHAOS! People didn’t know which bus to take, how to pay or how many combinations you could do with a single beep! ajjaja. At that time I was in the south, so it doesn’t take much attention to news about Santiago, but when I got here I didn’t know what to do or how to get to my house > <so I called my brother to go and get me to the bus terminal ahhaha. Before classes began, with a friend, we agreed to see how to get to our schools that remain in the center, was a big problem for us, because we didn’t know why the buses were of color or where we could buy the Bip! So we went to a bip center that is near our homes, buy the card and gave us the map, we looked like tourists in our own city! ajaja finally we learn, but we found it a bit difficult, so that initially only used the subway! XD I think this system has more advantages than the former because there is no need to use many coins to pay, because you only pay with the bip card and also with a single payment can be made ​​three combinations (previously four> <) because of this, the percentage of theft to the drivers could fall :)! Another advantage is that the new buses don’t pollute as much as did the above and also the buses are a little more spacious! The bad thing is the fact that there are people who don’t pay the bus fare, so the government has decided to raise ticket prices because of the costs of maintaining the system by doing this will affect all users: (

Something that would change the current system would give him more time for drivers to do things such as eating or using the toilet, and it showed in the documentary made ​​about transantiago, I think is very unfair treatment given to people who, in a way help the community! I hope this will change some day (my uncle is a conductor). But in general I think there was an improvement, actually a good thing is that drivers don’t race each other as they did with the yellow buses (at least I have not played any in the past 3 years jajaaj)

pets.-

Well well in this session i'm going to talk about my beautiful pets <3 first of all i have to say that i have dogs mostly of the time, a few hamster and birds (catas). But now, i have only two dogs here in santiago and four more in puerto varas (where my mother live!)

like i say before i have two dogs in here and their names are coni and agustin. there both mixture, agustin is a mix between an akita and a german shepherd, his hair is golden with big brown eyes and purple tongue, it's a really playful dog he always throw from his house and jump over the people who comes to my place and even over me when i get home
ajajja, is really really kindly and likes to lie on the floor for someone to give him some love!. My dad brought him to home, at first it wasn't for me, it was for my neighbor's girlfriend 'cause she needed it to her country house and she chose agustin's brother, a dog just like him but black :P and in that moment my dad told me if i wanted the other dog, that surprised me 'cause my dad isn't a dog lover but at the end i say YES :D! ajajajja :P

i dont really now the mix of Coni jaajja but it’s like a poodle :P it’s a small black dog with curly hair, and her character is angry when strange people walk near the house, but in fact she is so sweet but a bit mean ejej ‘cause she always bother agustin biting his tail and he gets so upset that they start to fight and always coni wins jajaaj, my dad brought her too, she was found on the street when she was a little puppy *o* and my father’s girlfriend keep her but after a few years (like 4 I guess) she “gave us” the dog ‘cause was pregnant from there she was my pet J.

The other 4 aren’t mine but I love them like if they were <3 they are two Belgian shepherd called luna and negro a st. Bernard call beto (very original XD) and last but not least my beautiful chowchow call tonca <3, I really sais she is mine ‘cause I raised since she was a puppy >< and now has about ten years old :O.Indeed, I would love to have more animals (like a cat <3) but my dad doesn’t like much the animals (hopefully support my dogs and me ajaja), but when I have my own home I hope i can get lots of animals <3.
