well, this semester was really odd to me, i had good moments and other´s not so good in my personal life outside of FAU, but they indeed have an impact on my university life. I think the moment i enyojed the most was my trip to tocopilla next to my taller course, Was really important to me because its my first trip in the university, and i learn a lot about industry and how this industry ended up giving this city the category of sacrifice zone. This semester in particular i did not have boring subjects however the history and critical subject was rare to me, despite history has been one of my prefered curses along the career, in this semester i really didnt achive good grades, in fact, my worst marks were here. I ended up passing that subject dispite my bad marks. On the other hand i think my best marks were on the structural subject. This semester i experimented something i never experienced it before, i work with my 24 classmates doing a master plan for the city of tocopilla, it was

 In general terms i don´t think it was a difficult test. Despite listening to british english, the vocabulary used was quite understandable, without using slang or very local pronunciations. Likewise, in the grammatical part there were no words that were difficult for me or that i did not have on my record. In therms of score, in both tests. listening and reading, i made some mistakes but there were few.

 Well, the time that social networks consume us is undeniable, in my case I close the account that I most use oftenly, which is Instagram, but the degree of communicational dependence we have is such, that I have to open it constantly. Despite this, since I started studying Arquitecture, Instagram with Pinterest has served me to see people´s projects or pages, or it has even directed me to more academic magazines from other countries. Although I think that the overexposure is not good, and obiously we often deal with quite aestheticized Arquitecture, but, I think I have been able to rescue something. Doing zapping as it was said in the time of the TV, I found the profile of an arquitect who uploads content of unpublished works, and what most caught my attention, the fact that he usually uploads works of arquitects who are not known or at least not in occident.                                            https://www.instagram.com/areasvellas/ Areasvellas it has basically become a great p

The activity I most enjoy doing outside is climbing mountains. The truth is that my family don’t like or have the habit of hikking. The only memories I have as a child climbing mountains are when we climbed the hill near my great-grandparent´s house to raise volantines on September 18 th . Maybe I don’t consider that as a big deal, but it´s because in Chile we are surrounded by mountains. I think this taste started when I was a teenager when I was surrounded by friends who did have the habit of hikking and a outdoor life. Together, we climbed the nearby hills in the V region and even dabbled in the art of mochilear before the pandemic. Once to Chiloe and the other to Bariloche. It may seem silly, but the greatest sensory memory of those walks to raise volantines with my family that I told you about a while ago, was when I ran down the hill with my cousins. That adrenaline has captivated me and perhaps later I will dare to do more risky climbs. The last big climb I did was in July. Me a
