Post 5: Person that I admire in my field

Imagen
In music, especifically regarding piano, my heroe has been Claudio Parra. He is the keyboard player and composer of the band "Los Jaivas". I admire his abilities in music and his mastery with the piano. Furthermore, I really admire how humble and easygoing he is. The first time I listened to his music was on the radio and I felt impressed by it. The song was "La Conquistada" and it has been my favorite song since then. Moreover, it has not only been an inspiration to me, but it also was my motivation to start learning music. His contribution to the Chilean music is of great important beacuse they composed one of the most trascendental albums in the history of my country. They brought the, by that time, new genre: the psychodelic rock. Using synthesizer and electric instruments which caused a revolution in the pop Chilean music frame. 2

Post 4: A picture I like

This picture was taken by me days after my first day at university. At that time I was at the escalators in the Plaza de Armas metro station. This picture means the beginning of a new era in my life because when I took it I realized that this was going to be my daily trip for the next years. After taking this photo I looked at it closely and I noticed an achitectural beauty which is directly related to symmetry, lights, and modern figures. I think it's important to register these daily life moments because you can find interesting things that we tend to overlook, especially this kind of places that we think we know entirely. In my opinion, line 3 is a great place to be. It's clean and safe. Everytime I walk through the stations I feel impressed by how well built it is. Besides, I believe this is even a space where I can reflect on technology and modernity. I think that we should be more a ware of the places that sourround us everyday. !!

My favorite piece of technology

My favorite piece of technology is the Playstation 4 because I have fun with it and I forget about my responsibilies for a couple of hours. In some of the videogames I can work on my creativity (the sims 4). Also, I can work on strategy (Gran thef auto V). I enjoy playing online videogames because I can practice English and I can talk with people from all over the world. I use the console wich has a wireless joystick and that is conected to the TV. Sometimes I forget about time and I realize that I have been playing for to many hours, and this affects my daily routine. I would recommend it, but with caution because some people could become addicted to itons, considering how entertaining it is. I suggest setting an alarm to be aware of time. This has helped to me a lot.

My Second Post !

My first months at the Universidad de Chile When I was a child I wanted to be a doctor because I was interested in science. Also, I used to play with a friend imagining that we had a clinic and we pretended we were doctors. Conservatoy Izidor Handler (2017) Another dream job was to be an astronaut because every night I used to stare at the sky looking at the stars and my only dream was to know what was there in the universe.  When I was in high school I entered the classical conservatory and that was when my passion for music started. This love for music prevailed because of my high school teachers. My experience at university has been satisfying so far. However, the infrastructure has slowed down my learning due to the lack of instruments and places to meet. It's sad, but I truly love my major.
