Me

Lately I truly consider myselg a practical person, I try not to get involved in big drama, I try to do what I like and be around the people I love, specially my nephews. My nephew and niece are the people that I love the most in the whole world. They are who make me a better person. When I am close to them I am usually really happy and I feel a complete person. I feel I don’t need anything else than their beautiful and sincere smiles. I don’t like every child, kids aren’t my thing, I just like my kids, they are my brothers and nephews. I think they are the people who motivate me to be a better woman and to be happy. As grown ups we are used to think that we are the ones who teach the Little ones but the truth is, at least from my prospective, that they teach us, they show us the world as a better place.
In summary, now a days I am someone that wants to be happy, that wants to be just fine and be able to reach her dreams, I want to have my loved ones near me all the time and I want to be able to be close to my nephews lifes because they have been near me during the hardest moments in my life without even knowing it. 

The most embarrasing things

The most embarrasing things that have ever happened to me is something that my parents always tell the new people and Friends that I invite to my house for the first time. This story is about when I was a Little girl, I was like 2 or 3 years old and my parents say that I was too good to eat. So, when my mom was getting everything ready to make a corn cake such as boiling eggs, pealing them, etc. She put the boiled eggs in a bowl inside the fridge, according to her they were around twenty eggs. She started to do other stuff around the house while I was just playing and goofing around, the thing is that when she came back to the kitchen a couple of minutes later she found me sitting on the floor with the egg bowl almost empty because I had eaten them all. They had to take me to the hospital because I got intoxicated. Now a days I just laugh about it but the first times my parents started telling the story I used to get really really embarrased.

My experience learning english

My experience learning english at my university has been a little bit complicated because I had had some troubles with my first english teacher, a factor that contribuited to damage my learning process. If.the.situation had been different I would possibly had enjoyed that process.
About.the evaluations, the.truth about.that is that on all.the path that I.have been.throu on this last four years, iis that there.is a lack.of.basic gadgets to reach the goal of writing a blog, which madebthe tast a. Lot morendifficult, transforming them into boring and sometimes stressing kind of work. That's sad, becouse I think that the process.of.writing a blog.itself itsa very.good.way to. Make.the learning process.a.lot.more.easier and. The amount of knowledge given.a.lot more. Listened.and.kept on our minds.
Meanwhile, refering  the time I dedicate to study outside the classroom, to be honest it aint that much, because of how much work I have to do for the rest of my classes. But I always manage to get the time to accomplish with the activities and study guides the teacher sends.
I believe I still lack the ability to master the basics, but sincerely, I plane to continue studying english after finishing my career as a way to have better opportunities,and job options.
Anyway, I would have liked to be able to have a better oportunitie and space to learn in a better way, maybe if I would have been in this class first with this teacher because I really like this class, I feel more confortable and I like to come even though the activities ard hard for me to do, I feel happy here. I’m waiting to be done with college as I mencioned before so I can take an english class, take is serious and finally learn for real.

Things I would change about my career.

Since I'm about to graduate from my career, the deficiencies in the academic curriculum are more noticeable than when I was just starting.
For example, there's not such a thing as genere perspective or genere studies in the 5 years that last the career, which it's fundamental in the formation of future psychologists in my opinion.
Meanwhile, the options of optative classes that the career offer are pretty poor in variety, and this should change since a lot of people can't access classes and formation in their area or interest.
As well, one of the most important things that are present in the career and should change is the way the formation is been oriented. Where in this university is mainly research oriented, not most of us are interested in that area. They have us here practicing and making investigations year after year, without another way of demonstrate how much we have learned. There are not many instances for us to do practice work, and it makes me feel like we get caught in the theoric work.
As a person whom is in formation as a professional, I believe that this deficiencies are damaging our formations so it should be a priority for the career administration to work on and change them.
Specially since this career is not only formating social investigators, it's also formating clinic psychologists, educationals or focus in the community, etc and the academic formation in this university isn't delivering the correct tools for them to achieve  a heterogeneous formation.

Fourth Year

Now that I'am at fourth year on my career, in moments I feel that I wish that all of this finish soon, reach my professional life, but in the other hand I don't want to get out of my confort zone and suffer the suffer all the stress that comes when university is over.
Moreover, putting that "getting out of university and responsabilities " fact aside, I also like the idea of finally having the opportunity to fight on for my dreams and start to built my own life, enjoying the process as well. Also, I would like to earn my money to spend it on travels around the world and meet new and cool people, but at the same time conserving an economic stability.
Even though for me is really satisfying to think about how close I am to start this new stage in life, it's a very scary situation at the same time, because I don't feel ready enough to start working with people as a psychologist. I still have a lot to learn both theoretically and practically, because the instances in my career to work with people are almost inexistent.

Still and all, I suppouse that next year, when practice process begins some of those fears might disappear or (in the worst case) intensify.
Anyway, sincerely I have a lot of expectives on the first option and help me to get over all the fears that I may come aware on this process.

POST GRADUATE STUDIES

Good Afternoon:

When I think about my future and who  I want to be in some years, the first idea that comes to my head is that I would like to study abroad, Europe exactly.

I consider Europe in specific, because is the best place where I can develop my career, Psychology; in my personal opinion.

During my undergraduate period at the university, I had always thought about what I would have to do to study abroad. I'd have to submit an application to an exchange program, but it'll cost money.
On the other hand, my relationship with the language is another limitation.

Returning to the abroad studies thing, I would like to have courses related with feminism, and what better place to learn those ideas that in Europe, because for example in countries like France woman  live in a society with a very different culture and an important participation in politics, among other things.

Therefore, I consider that learning the process where european society achieved change is very important, considering my future role as a pshychologist, because it is important to understand the history of our society and what it has to been trough to be what it is today.

MY FUTURE JOB

When I think about my future and the job I would like to get, the first thing that pops into my head are the schedules. They are very important to me, because I don't like to get up too early, therefore, my ideal job would have to be in the afternoon.
I am studying psychology and even though I haven't made my mind about which field I would like to focus, I'm clear about which kind of work I want. By far, what I need is a  job where I can mix office and outside work, because the idea of being locked in one place for too long doesn't amuse me.
On the other hand, I have always thought of myself as someone who wouldn't
settle with just one job for the rest of her life. I'm open to the idea of working in other fields beside the one I studied for or even going back to learning another one, such as gastronomy or become a stylist.
I just can't picture myself tied down to one job for the rest of my life, specially because I don't want to live my life monotonously. I want to keep learning new things for as long as I can.
A big part of my plans include to travel and get to know new places, and for this to happen I need something to assure this, I need a career and I see psychology as the way to keep my plan going.
