Post 2: Why did you choose this Career/study Programme?

When i was a child i dream to become a dentist, but as i grew up i knew it was not my thing. I always liked history in school, like wars and famous events. When i enter to primero medio, i rejected any possibility of studying something scientific. I had a vague knowledge about social sciences, but i liked sociology and anthropology. When i was in tercero medio, i had to choose an elective, and my high school had a social sciences elective. Finally i gave the PSU and my score was enought to postulate to Universidad de Chile. My first option was anthropology but i had others options like cine, sociology, psychology, degree in history, among others careers. Finally i think i made the right choice because i like JGM campus and my subjects. In a future ill like to work in public area and help  chilean people.

8 My favorite subject this term.

Hi everyone, today I’m going to write about what is my favorite subject in this term. I think my favorite subject in all the semester was Sociology. I think sociology was my favorite subject-matter this semester because the classes were very interesting and reflective and this because we have a time defined by the teacher in the class to talk and discuss about the newly taught content and provide opinions to the class. I like so much this subject since one day my sociology teacher talks us about the suicide study by Emile Durkheim. I remember how in this class, the teacher talks us about how Emile Durkheim made suicide a topic of sociological study removing the false belief that it was a personal phenomenon whit only a psychological nature. The teacher learns us to the sociology theory of Karl Marx, Max Weber, Hebert Spencer, and Michel Foucault among others famous sociologist.

6: Back to the past

I prefer going to the past, because knowing the future can be a little problematic. In the past we can remember and revive all types of memories that we have, like good and bad days to remember the emotions that we feel. Nevertheless, i think living in the past is not good because is stagnate the course of our life’s. But the certainty with respect to the future can make the life get boring. Finally i think I’d prefer living the life in the present, because it prepares us so many good things as bad, but always something new. If i could go to the past i don’t change anything with respect to important decisions that I take in my life. If I could go back to the past, to a specific period of history, I go back to 1960, specifically to 1969 to go to Woodstock. I think Woodstock is an unrepeatable event in the history, because joined many good and famous rock artist like Jimmi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and The Who. I like to stay in this rock festival during the three days it lasted....

7 Who is a person/expert on your field that you admire?

A person that I admire on the field of social science is Simone de Beauvoir. Simone Lucie Ernestine Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir (her real name) was a French teacher, writer, philosopher, feminist and a social theorist, among other things. She born in January 9th of 1908 in Paris, France and finally died in April 14th of 1986, when she was 78 years. Since she was little girl, she stood out for good ratings and for showing interest in writing and teaching. She became in a pioneer feminist, and this beliefs were more difficult to hold in her times than today because woman had always been historically invisible by man but this was worse in the years that she lived. She maintains that "the woman" or what we understand as a woman is a cultural product that has been socially constructed. His most recognized work "The second sex" becomed controversial while Beauvoir was a lonely woman in the intellectual world of philosophers, denouncing the condition of women and making it ...
