ENGLISH 4: POST 1 My first semester's experience

Hello classmates and teacher!


In the last semester I learn about the diferents areas from my career,this is very important because now I know more about the diversity of things that I can develop as a psychologist and this makes me very happy with my university studies.

At some moment I found myself very sad and disillusioned because I did not find something to make me feel passionate and want to practice the rest of my life but in that moment I found it a website which showed a post graduate and master's degree in art therapy .This post graduate is very interesting because it combines the art with medicine, I learned more about this therapy because I am volunteer in the art room of the Teleton where the teacher is a young woman who graduated from art studies in the "Universidad Católica" and I discovered that she makes a post-graduate study of art therapy in arts faculty of the Universidad de Chile.She explain me some difficulties in this work but I still volunteer I realized how important and rewarding it can be.After all this I decided to take curse of paint on the faculty of arts and I am very happy with this decision, the teacher is called Enrique Matthey and he is a important painter of Chile and I am really proud to belong to that class.

About the sports I still don't take a sport course but I hope to take swimming class soon! because the last time I went to ask the temperature of the pool was bad and it was too cold for swimming.
The end of the semester was very nice and I hope that this semester was similar or better yet!

Hello Miss and classmates,today I Would like to talk about "My ideal job"

I have very clear what would be my dream job because I have seen from near,through volunteering in which I participate every Wednesday in the institution "Teleton".

I participate as a volunteer in the arts room where there is an art teacher with graduate studies in art therapy. I while, wash the brush, clean the tables and easels and I help to paint to children with more disabilities.

This work is really nice because I like art and I like help people especially children, and this children are very funny, sympathetic and grateful.

To work as an art therapist, I have to do a Masters of Art Therapy in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Chile, the condition is that I graduated from one area of health or art and to present a portfolio of artistic works,so that from this second semester I plan to take classes in the faculty of arts, especially practical classes such as painting, ceramics, engraving, among others.

Since I was in college I wanted to work on something that will mix art with healing, in this case, psychologica,and now that I discovered the art therapy, I will do my best to work on this.

P.D: This photo was taken on Wednesday 9 June by a photographer from "La Cuarta" in the art workshop where I volunteer in the foundation Teleton.

Here I enclose a link to the photos of the workshop:

Hello classmates and Miss!, this picture was taken for my grandmother when we went to Puerto Montt with my grandfather and my mother too.

Those vacations were very important for me, despite I was very small, I have many remenbers of this travel as when we went to craft fair an my grandfather bought me a "chapulin colorado's marionette and I played with its every days until the puppet broke, or when my mother bought us a "empanada de pino"and I thought that the "pino" had made with the pine(the tree).

That vacations , I was 7 years old and I felt very happy and exciting for the games that had in that amusement park,the ducks seemed to be very fast for me.

I like this pic because it represent all the happiness that I had in that moment,because I lived so much experiences that before I did not know as to travel in a train, to go for boat, to play very much with my grandfather and my grand mother , among other things.

The different stereotypes in the Social Sciences's Faculty

The Faculty has many types of persons, it depends of the origin of this, the music that they listen, where they live , their friends, or their aspirations, among other things.

For me , the persons more striking are the "neo- hippies", this people is characterized for use hand made woolen clothes and america clothes, especially if it is discolored or chipped.

The neo-hippies seems to be very relaxed but they are very chic(this does not apply to all), they buy their clothes in craft fairs, unfortunately this is often very expensive because of the craftsmanship of chili are made for tourists and with this the hippie's spirit is lost.

Other stereotype in the Social's Faculty are the leaders or political activists, these type of people love to manage, always greet many people, are always in a hurry, and they are very nice when they want to convince you of something.

Other stereotype are the "nerds" but not all boring like in the movies no less vindictive.

The nerds are very responsible and they never miss a class, their notebooks

are always full and always know when they come the next test or works,although some "nerds" are not like that, if not what else to know about the classes know more than computer games and blogs.

There are other types of people in college but differ very little among themselves to fall into a stereotype.

I consider myself as a person with differents likes and maybe I have a bit of everything.
