Why I'm studing (and now leaving) geography


Well, to say the truth I didn’t choose Geography as a career because I’ve always wanted to be a geographer or something like that. When I was in high school I was in the physics-mathematic class, I’ve always been good with numbers and really enjoyed physics and maths so that was my option at that time (And maybe study Engineering D: ) . When the time to decide “what to do with my life” arrived I wasn’t really sure about what to do. My first option was Geophysics because I thought it would be fun, but I was also honest with myself I realized that I didn’t want to give my life in trying to get to the Engineering School at Universidad de Chile and to stay there four years of my life- It’s well known that engineers don’t have a good life while studying and that doesn’t suit me.

So I took geography as my alternative to do something similar, and maybe after that I’d do something to be closer to geophysics… And here I am, studying geography… At the beginning I really enjoyed what geography is, I like it because it covers many areas that other subjects doesn’t, and it gives you a different way to see the thing happening in the world.

At the beginning my intention was to be the best so I could try a career in the investigation field, but when the time passed I realized that I didn’t wanted to do that, so I tried to convince myself to continue with geography and see what happens until I ended the career. There aren’t many things in studying geography that I dislike- except of the stress during the end of each semester, but what I didn’t like much was the part after graduating: being a real geographer. I think it’s not as fun as I would like it to be, and I think that I could do something more entertaining with my life  -I’m not saying that you geographer life is going to be boring, but for myself it is.

So I’m not going to graduate as a geographer ever, ever, in my life, and I decided to try something funnier: I want to be a fashion designer! It sounds too distant from what I’m doing now, and it is xD but it’s something that I’ve always enjoyed, and that I’ve been trying to let just as a hobby,  but… what’s better than doing your best hobby as your future job for the rest of your life? Well, at least, I think there’s nothing better than that c:  



I'm going to be a Barbie Fashionista, and Mattel will have to make a bald and "fat" Barbie for me c: -  we're all fat next to a Barbie

Something I’m proud of: my “Bebé”


When I was in high school there were used to be many dogs living in the school. One day there were two puppies, they were cute, and also really hungry, so my friends and I fed them and played with them during our lunch break. The problem with those puppies was that the people from school was going to call “animal rescue”, and we really doubt that it was going to be a real rescue for them, so I decided to take one of them with me so I could find it a new home, and a fríen took the other with her to do the same. 
I took the smallest puppy and went home with her, she was so small that I could carry her in my arms with no problem all the way home. Once we arrived I spent the entire day with her and I gave her some milk and food. After that we took some pictures of her to try to find someone who could take care of her and give her all the love she deserves, but we couldn’t find anyone :c We've always had bad luck trying to give animals in adoption,  and all of them end up living in my house.
This is the only picture of her that I could find.
She is "papiche" and I love her <3 <3
 
 
 
So finally she stayed at my home, and we called her Bebé. (We had to convince our father to let her stay, because we already had another dog and 3 cats) She became friends really fast with Pequeño, who assumed the role of being the leader of the pack. They grew old together, and now my Bebé is fat and loves me, and she also loves food (she is really fat xD ). I’m really proud of her because she could grow healthy and with a family that takes care of her, instead of the difficult life that she could have had.
