Pets... Tails and Paws!!!

Since i was a child, i've always had dogs... my mom is the responsible of my "doglover life". She was raised in a country town surrounded of lots of pets, she had cows, chickens, dogs, cats, ducks, rabbits, gooses, pigs and one horse call "Rubia" (blond in english). I think that she taught us of to be responsible of something using the pets as a tool... and the results were awesome...!

Im still living in my parents house, we have six dogs: Luna, Lucky,Princesa, Ewok, Punto, and Canela (also known as "Chica")
The history of them is sooo long, but i think that "Lucky" is my favourite one, she is the older and its the third generation of dogs. She is very sweet, pretty and obedient, she sleeps with me (in my room next to my bed, not with me in MY bed).
We have an special relationship, because she is old so she doesnt play anymore, but she loves to stay with me while im stretching, or reading... she loves the music of "Ella Fitzgerald" when i put it, she rests next to the speaker.

I know that she is old, i dont wanna immagine my life without her, i think that im gonna miss her so much...

My favourite Gadget.

Easy, my smartphone... O.M.G. what i'd do without it.!!!!???

I remember when i was younger (yeah, this sounds like "Damn, im so F@$%&ng old!!") i always said: "I think that having and using a cellphone it's no necessary... i could live without it". Since that day till today, my opinion has changed in a amazingly way.

A Smartphone is so much more than a common cellphone, you can do almost everything with it, you can see your email, social networks, use a chat service and talk with people around the world, you can read books, check news, etc.

The device that i have now, i bought it two weeks ago, just after someone stole it when i was in the bus, thats cool, cause this device is better than the other one. I remember that i fell so desperate and upset when i noticed that my cellphone was stolen, because i use it to do my dance classes, i have music, photos and videos of my work and my students. Another use is to stay in touch with people of my job, students parents and to check emails, jokes and stuffs of my social networks.

If you ask me how often i use my smartphone, i would answer... "well, in every moment..." For example now, while im writing this, I'm listening music from an app called "Spotify"... (Daaaamn its soooo good!!!!) and thats why i love it, because if i combined it with other technologies, i can optimize my time, it make my job easier, and faster.

I think that  if this little things wouldn't exist, the life of humanity would still going normally because the human being is very adaptable, we just need more time to create something that seems like, even though it means to be disconnected again from the reality that surrounds us. 

Expectations

When I have to think of my expectations for this semester, I really have to say that for first time, I don't have any. Being honest with myself, I passed my whole life thinking of expectations and almost living in the future, but now, I'm just taking the opportunities that life gives to me, and seeing if they are possible to realize, if i cant do it in my 100%, i just let them go.

I'm in the third year of my career (Did I mention that I study dance?), and we are the first class that starts with the Curricular innovation, so, comparing with last year, we have so much more classes and hours of training (Modern, Contemporary, Composition, Physical Conditioning, Ballet, etc) this makes me feel so happy and excited of the skills that I'm gonna develop.

This year will be (and its being indeed) a really busy year, I'm in two universities at the same time, I have two jobs like a teacher of ballet, contemporary dance, jazz dance and traditional dances, and I'm part of a traditional dance company called Raices Latinoamericanas. I'm so excited with the work of the company, because in september we will go to Paris, France to dance for the chilean party in commemoration of the independence day.

So, thinking of my busy life, including my boyfriend, my real and truly expectation for this academic period, is just to survive. I'm gonna put all my energy on this...!

  

Okay... thats me.

                                                                                    So, this is my story...

Was the year 1989. I was born on a cold day of april in Santiago de Chile. I spent my first year living where my parents grow up, a tiny town called Talagante. When i was almost two years old, we had to move to Santiago, case my dad was promoted in their job.

Mom and Dad always had a beautiful relationship, a happy marriage and thats why i think that love is above everything. They grow up in really poor conditions, and they met in school. Rosa (mom) is not the typical housewife, she always tried go with us further. Buying us books, preparing us for a change, she always said "if i have to lick floors only to carry you t the university. i'll do it"...

Dad its a Rude/kind man, he entered to the army and work for the state 36 years of his life, now he is retired and still work for the army, but now like a civilian.

I have three brothers, two older and one younger. Alejandro (33), Joja (31) and Diego (17)... Alejandro is Auditor and comercial engineer, My sister is Pediatrician and Diego is in his last year of secondary.

I studies in many schools but the last one was the best. In Eleuterio Ramirez Molina school i spent 9 years, in my last year of secondary, at the age of 17, i lived in San Salvador, El Salvador. In that place i studied American English but i never finished the course because i just lived there for 1 year and wasn't enough to finish it.

Then, i entered to Metropolitan University of Educational Sciences (Pedagogico) to start my studies of Bachelor in Education. Teacher of Physical Education.

When i was studying my last year of Physical Education, i took the decision of study Bachelor in Artes with minor in Dance in the University of Chile, where now iim coursing third year.

I always loved dancing. i began at the age of 6 with traditional dances, in 2003 at the age of 14 i entered to BAFOCHI and there i discovered what is dancing in great stages. In that place i felt in love with dance and i decided to make of this passion my work for my entire life.

Then i entered to Ecos del Mundo Dance company in El Salvador. Traditional dances has allowed me to know countries like Guatemala, Honduras, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Italia, United States and i expect to travel to France in september of 2015.

I think that my biggest hobbie, are the sports, i like to try new things and make lots of exercise but for me, this is more than a hobbie, is a way of life.
