Changes to my study programme

Hello everyone! This is my last post! Well, I am currently studying journalism at the Universidad de Chile. And in these two years, I have clearly witnessed the strengths and weaknesses of this study programme. I have always thought that in Chile study programmes are too long, and 5 years studying journalism is an excess. But I will not deny that, at present, the workload is low. Studying journalism is quite relaxed. The curriculum is quite complete but, again, I will not deny that some courses of the common plan (the ones we share with Film and Television) are boring. Personally, I think that these courses should be merged and shortened. In this way, the study programme would last a maximum of 4 years, a prudent extension. Along these lines, I believe that all sections of the same course should unify their programs. So, for example, the teaching methods of one section of "Audiovisual Language" would not be so different from the other. In terms of infrastructure...

Time travel to the future

Hello everyone! The idea of time travel, to the future or the past, scares me too much. Because in the movies it never ends well. But if I have to choose a timeline it would be Chile (or wherever I am) in 2040. Yes, I would time travel to the future, l ike Marty McFly and Emmett Brown in "Back to the Future II". A movie I love.  I would time travel to the future to find out how I am doing, and see if I "did it right". If I achieved my goals and fulfilled my dreams. I would also like to know if I am still alive, obviously. I would like to meet myself and ask "how did you do it?".  I wouldn't ask for family or friends, I don't want that spoiler.  I know, it's an existential time travel, but that's the way I am.  But I would stay a few days, obviously, to see the future developments and enjoy them. I would take this time travel as a vacation. Well, I don't think I'll be living on that timeline. As I said, it would just be an existentia...

A job I would like to have in the future

 Hello everyone! Well, at some point in my life I was very confused about what career path to take. But one day, I decided that I wanted to communicate. And be a journalist, specifically a cultural journalist. I made that decision after meeting many journalists who worked on the "culture" front, and I liked what they told me. Besides the fact that I've always enjoyed talking about movies, television, music, etc.  In the future I want to work in "Culto" of "La Tercera" and write about movies and series. I feel that this is the ideal job for me because I have always liked to talk about those topics, in fact, I currently do film content on social media. If not in "Culto" in any other medium. I see this kind of work as an extension of my hobbies, that's why I want to do it.  For this job you need to be a good journalist and know a lot about film and television and their industries. Oh, and I forgot, it is also necessary to have a good pen. 

The best concert ever

Hello everyone! I have always been a Gorillaz fan and on May 3, 2022 I had the opportunity to see them live in their last concert in Chile, so far, at the Movistar Arena. Gorillaz is an English virtual band created in 1998 by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett. The band is composed of four fictional members: 2-D, Noodle, Murdoc Niccals and Russel Hobbs. Most of their songs and the fictional universe behind them are presented through animated music videos and animated shorts. In reality, Albarn is the only permanent member of the band.  I always wanted to see them live and I remember being euphoric and very happy. That day I went with a person very dear to me and I remember we had a great time. There were fans of all ages and entire families, it was very nice. Anyway, I enjoyed it because it felt like a dream come true. Besides the fact that Damon Albam is a very nice guy.  However, I remember that when I left I didn't hear anything. Well, that's a sign that it was a great con...

A country I would like to visit

Imagen
Hello everyone! Well, to be honest, I've always wanted to visit Italy. I've been wanting to go to this country for a long time, even if it sounds "basic".  All I know about this country is from the movies, in them, Italy seems to be a nation full of culture and beautiful landscapes. I think I have a platonic love for this country , and, besides, I have always been attracted by the ganster culture. This for the "Godfather" part 1 and 2.  I would like to visit Italy and visit all its tourist sites ( torre  pendente di Pisa,  Colosseo, etc).  I would like to visit Italy and see all its tourist sites, and of course, live there. In the movies, Italy is always a country that everyone wants to go to, because, it gives them peace. W ell, maybe I'm in love with Italy?
