CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME

 It's hilarious to talk about this issue because since I entered the university I've been witnessing strikes and sit-ins, mostly due to structural failures.

Some of this problems may seem ridiculous because they are basic things for the proper functioning of an educational center, but unfortunately they are real facts.

Just a month ago we went on strike in response to the return to classes.

1-. Many employees work  with Fee slip, which is not strange, the problem arises when they've not been paid for months. In addition, there are professors who have been working in this way for more than 15 years and the university refuses to hire them. To make matters worse, if you want to be hired, you must enter a kind of contest where professors show their presentations and the winner is hired.

2-. The university does not have sanitary implements to resume classes.

3-.workshops continue to have problems such as lack of tools or tool malfunctions.

4-. It doesn't comply with safety rules since the establishment doesn't have fire extinguishers (many workshops work with fire) and the roofs are made of exposed asbestos. On the occasions when pieces have fallen, they have had to cordon off the area and the workers cannot cover the holes due to the danger of the material.

We've been told that it is still possible to work in these conditions, that at the time things were worse and that changes have been made, but they are all half-hearted solutions, such as the reconstruction of the library, where the roof collapsed with the first rain. The casino was remodeled a couple of years ago and is full of leaks. And I could go on but I think my point is clear.

Unforgettable memories

  When I hear the songs of Mazapán and Cachureos. It takes me back to the moments when my mother sang to me or when I was brushing my teeth to the rhythm of "lávate los dientes" I've always love holidays, especially Christmas and Halloween. I can almost remember what I did on all of those dates. I remember the Christmas when I got my first bicycle. I was about 6 years old and remember that i imagined the I saw Santa clos in the sky (really a child's imagination is very vivid). And To this day there is not a single Halloween that I don't spend with my childhood friend, we have always loved to dress up, go out trick-or-treating and watch horror movies. It has become a tradition to get together to eat and watch movies. I learned to swim un a poll when I was a little girl (in fact it was almost by instinct). Although I still have memories of those moments when I almost got drowned haha. I've always loved playing in the street. I used to play with younger kids and ...

A Journey to the Past

If there was a possibility to travel in time it would be to the past. I couldn't specify a date but it would be around the XI-XV century and I'd like to travel through several countries, but specifically Europe and Asia. Because I've always been very interested in their mythological creatures.  For example. When we talk about centaurs we have the idea that they were born from the imagination of the natives when they saw others people riding horse. The unicorns on the other hand are said to be narwhals and I'd seen illustrations of "hippocampus", which were horses with fins. But curiously, there were horses with a protuberance on the head, although it was not very big. What would it be like in the case of dragons? What kind of animal could have inspired this? Many of these beings have in common that they are seen in more than one culture, such as the European dragon that was more similar to a dinosaur with wings versus the Asian dragon that was more similar to ...

My future job

Imagen
  I'm currently studying 4th year of plastic arts at Universidad de Chile. I was supposed to get a specialization in goldsmithing if I did the thesis next year, but I decided not to do it to devote myself to what I am good at. To I decided to become a fursuitmaker. Besides I don't want to continue studying or do a master. I think I will only pay the sewing courses, epoxy resin work and 3D modeling. I have made the decision to dedicate myself to fursuits making, to live from cons and commissions. basically to be independent. It is not just something I see in the future, since it is a decision already taken and to which I already dedicate myself but in less time, next year this will be full time. For the cons I will make animal ears and tails, some keychains, maybe embroidery and also plan to bring some furhead as an exhibition.  I know it will be hard work but I'm very anxious to start with this project of opening my online store. I don't know how much I will travel, bec...
