Week 11: Summer holidays

In this next summer I would like to play play videogames and be a lazy person in those two months... I joking.
I don´t know where I go to vacation this summer, probably I go to visit my grandparents in Isla Negra or go to the south to visit my other grandparents. To Isla Negra maybe I go with my mother and my sister, o the south I always go with my entire family (my mother, my father, my sister, my dog).
This summer I would like travel to the south, but I don´t know if I go to Valdivia or the "carreterra austral", maybe I would travel to both places. If I didn´t go alone, I would go with a friend of mine who offer to me the idea to visit that places. I really like to visit, because this would be "my last" summer before start the diploma couse and my practice and I don´t know if I had time in the future to do that.
Also, I would like to travel outside. My father torture me because all the touristics packs arein the beginning of march, and I started my classes in that days, but it's probably I would travel to buzios in brazil (again) or go to barranquilla in Colombia.
Other activities I would like to do is playing role games (like mage the asention), go outside with my friends to play Pokemon GO and sleep so, so much.

Week 9: free post "Star Wars Music"

"Star Wars". A franchise that I really love. I would talk about the first time I saw the saga or about my collection of figures, teddies and comics. But today I wanna talk about their music, because there is one thing what characterize: the orchestal arragments.
The soundtrack of all Star Wars movies of the principal saga was composed by John Williams (Jaws, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter and others). Also, Rogue One and Solo has a different compositors (Michael Giaccino and John Powell respectively).
The music awakes in me a lot of emotions, empowering the fantstic story with a greate music, that makes me feel exicted.
Theres some themes associates with every character or moment of the movies, like luke's theme, the force's theme, the imperial march, the ressistance march, etc. Every theme announces what it comes and predict what kind of things can happen, for example, if you heard the yoda's theme you know he is about to do something very special (my favorute was when he recovered the luke's X-wing from the swamp with the force).
My top 5 of themes is: 1. The force theme, one of me most characteristic themes of the saga. 2. The imperial march, a great song that announces Darth Vader is comming. 3. The Duel of fates, because is one of the few themes have a coral arragments, it's an epic and exiting song. 4. "Your father would be proud of view", one of the final themes of Rogue one, at my opinion, one of the best themes that fits perfectly with their scene (also the only scene of a tar Wars movie that makes me cry). 5. Rey's theme, an inspirational theme that suppose the journey of her. Bonus track: the cantina them, because is a catchy song.

Week 8: post graduate studies

About my post graduate studies, this is an uncertain decision. My biggest desire is do the academic career, because I started to feel comforttably in the work of teacher assistant and I wanna involve in this area.  So, if I wanna do this, I have to do a doctorate, abdove a master, because that maximizes my posibilities to find a good place to work.
About the subjetcs, I wanna course contents about community psychology (in previously blogs I talk about how much I like this applied speciality), especially all about community intervention, empowerment and mental health.
Places where I want to do my post graduate studies... if I could do it in Chile, I have two universities in mind. One of them is the University of Concepcion, because in that city (Concepcion) is the place where I was born and I would felt comfortable doing my studies there. The second is the Austral University of Chile, in Valdivia. Objectively, I like environment of that University. If I wanna study somthing, one of my criteria to choos a place is the nice environment the univisersity would offer.
An blended system is the approppiate way I think to keep my practice work and complement this with my studies. I think is important to do it both at the same time because ensures continuity in our learning and develompent as professionals.

Week 7: My future job

My plan to my future job, is be a Communitary psychologist. During the last two years I decide this because I take an elective subjetc in my career about communtary intervention, when the mayor job was do an intervention proyect (and try to excecute) with a community organization. I was work with a self-help gruop, the experience was invaluable to me and convince me to involucrate in this area of the psychology.
I would like to work with the community in the outdoors, helping to empowerment the people, to create a new way to see the mental health, outside the clinical box.
In this case, I don't care about the salary, as lons as gave me enough to live pacefully. Neverthless, I would like to travel outside of Chile to do an postgrade in communitary psychology, because I am always hungry for more knowledge and tools for my praxis. Also, I like the investigation, so it is my interest to show around the international congress and conference the situation in Chile (In fact I was an expositor in the last International conference of communitary psychology of this year).
Actually I doing some elective subjetcs related with communitary psychology and my future plans are still involucrate with the investigation about this and complement my studies with a diplomate of clinical psychology in systemic theory.
