When second option is the best

So this time I want to tell you about my career. I'm studying social work and I'm on my trird year now, but at the beginning it wasn't my first option.

Before I start uni I wanted to study sociology, I was so exited with the idea of understand society and be able to make social analisys, also I was atracted to political science, history and law, even geografy, however, sociology was my first option.


In order to enter to my actual university I began to study very hard. I applied the PSU test 2 times, but because of my school average I couldn't enter that career, so I thought in study social work one semester and then ask for a internal change. That was my plan, but I didn't know that this career would be so interesting to me. I started to think this career gave me more opportunities and options, and it's like a great mix about all my interests.

About my experience at the moment, I had a very hard time in my second yead because I wasn't very sure about my decision. After that, I found a sociological theory that made me recover my motivation. Since that, I raised up my qualifications, so I'm very happy and motivated right now.

    thats sounds great, sometimes I think that sociology is so theoretical and lacks of utility for society, but social work doesn't

English language challenges

So in this entry I'm going to tell you about my experience learning English at university. It was pretty cool I might say. Study English, and other languages in general, is an activity that's very fun and interesting to me. I suppose the different accents sound cool to me, and I want to learn those all. So, learning English at the uni was a great experience, but there are some things that would be better. For example: I would like to have more opportunities to speak with other classmates, make some video doing an interview to a native speaker or something like that, because I think one of the things that really helps us to improve is to have conversation with level up speakers. About the blog I might say that is the thing that liked me the most about this course. Write to actually be read by another classmates is a fun thing. It gives you motivation to write well, and I would like to continue doing this. But, one aspect that I need to improve is the capacity to make ...

Hi, in this post I’m going to tell you some random things. First of all, I have a cat and his name is León. He arrived to my home around a year ago. On the firsts days all my family believed that she was a girl, but the next days we noted that actually she was he! So, we have to change his name to a propped one. After that my cat has grown up so much. I love him, but something he makes me angry because he likes to jump to my bed with dirty paws! D: Another thing that I liked to tell you about is related to my summer plans. This year I learned a lot of interesting things that I want to apply to my own live, for example: in class we learn about the Strategic Planification, it is related to public policies and private corporations, but you can used it in any project you have. Is so weird if I do a FODA analysis to myself? Another thing that I want to tell you is about that I always have felling I’m surrounded by lucky situation. It could be a lot of weird coincidences. Also I ha...

Social Science Faculty, University of Chile. As you know I study social work. On my career we study a lot of social sciences areas, for example we have some courses of economy (I and II), legal regulations, sociological theory (I y II), anthropology, psychology, philosophy, ethics, statistics and history. Also, we must study different social topics like: public policy, social intervention, planification, social movements, sustainability and social impact, epistemology, etc. As you can note my career is a very interesting and diverse field, that is one of the things I like the most about it, because all these subjects are fun to me. This career last 4 year, after that you get your academic grade. But the program includes a 5° year in which you must do a diplomat or a magister. About the workload it's increase along the years as all the careers I think. The most part is about to read a lot of texts; the other part is about to write articles and reports. Also, we must make so...
