Wake UP

The air, the plants, the animals, where we tread, where we run, where we LIVE, everything around us corresponds to the environment, a very important part of us.

I think that all the people need to know how to care for our environment. In my primary school the teachers tried to form an environmental awareness in all of us. They say us that the recycling was a very important practice because in that way we can help to reduce the contamination to the environment.

Day by day I tried to reduce my carbon footprint for help the environment, without wasting the water, turning off lights when I leave a room, no throwing garbage in the street, etc.  Is true that I haven’t the recycling very incorporated in my life, but when I can or when I remember I tried to recycle or help in any other way to the planet.

I usually use the bus for transporting but when I can and when the time is in my side I walk because I love it and also I’m helping to not contaminate.

Already I’m not in an eco-organization, but I admired the work that they do. For example, Greenpeace is an eco-organization who tried to save the planet, helping undefended animals, stopping the indiscriminate haunted of them, and stopping environmental crimes. I hope that someday I can help the planet in the same way.

In the society missing an environmental awareness, especially here in Santiago where the pollution index is very high. We need to be more aware of our acts and how they affect all the beautiful landscape that makes up our environment.

Become Aware.

The "V" day

Elections, candidates, politic, electoral campaigns; so many things related with our civic duty to vote.

I’m registered to vote because since the beginning of this year the register is automatic and all the people who aren’t register before pass automatically to being. Besides now the vote is voluntary for all the Chilean people, if you want can or can’t do it.

About the electoral campaigns I think that is a little excessive that the entire district was full of posters of candidates. Makes look ugly the street and the parks. The most of the candidates promise to be the best mayor or city councilor but a few of them really are good ones. I think that don’t exist a specific profile for being a good mayor or city councilor because all we are different and no one is agree with the proposals or the form of government of the politicians. For the same thing I don’t like the politic and being a politician (apart from being complicated, no one is agree).

Sincerely, I don’t know anyone of the candidates for mayor and councilor in my district (San Ramón). Even I don’t know who the current mayor of my district is and I don’t care because no matter who is in the power, I can’t see any change in the quality of life of the people who lives in San Ramón. Also all the candidates are badly.

News, news, news!

Another day I was reading a news very interesting which was speaking about the gifted children and his complex with the rest of the world. A gifted child is someone has a special talent above the average.

In this news appears talking a psychologist very important who writes a book about the gifted children for which she handles well the topic. His name is Joan Freeman and she say that the entire world has a stereotype about the gifted children, all thinks that he is a very quite child who wear glasses, who can’t make friends, who is thin and weak. Other group of people thinks that this child’s are immortals, are someone who nothing can affect; but these are just stereotypes. All these children’s were very normal just like you and me, they get sick, they have problems and success, they have sadness’s and happy moments, they are just another people.

Sometimes the fact of was a gifted child brings more problems than good things. If you are gifted, you have the potential to work at a very high level but no one will see you, no one will give you what you need. This is that the other people see you like a freak and thinks that you are different than the rest of the people. Maybe this child was a lonely one, who just need the love of his parents but for been a gifted child the other people think that he don’t need the same things that the others, he can’t be understanding.

For all these circumstances this children can be a happy one. We need to understand that all are equal no matter the color of skin or the country of origin or ours capacities. All we are equal.

Always a support c:

In your happiest moments, in your worst times, every time that you need a hug or a friendly face, your best friend always be there.

I think that is very difficult knows who is your best friend. For me is difficult say who is my best friend because I have very much affection for all of them. But I have a very special affection for my friend Yaiza. I can say that she is my best friend. 

I knew her in 2008 in my first year on my old high school and despite the short time we became very good and close friends. She has been an essential support in my life; she has always been with me, in bad and good ones. She always knew me out a smile when I was sad and also gives great advice. Our friendship is reciprocal, I take care of her and she takes care of me. It's like a sister to me, I love her and I hope that our friendship will last forever.

I have a lot of beautiful moments with her, in our five years of friendship we went through many things, good, bad, funny and sad moments, but always managed to overcome them, always supporting each other. I remember once she got mad at me for doing something stupid, we were a few days without talking, but after thinking about what I had done I realized I owed him an apology. We talked and ended both crying. I realized she just wanted to take care of me and then I realized what a good friend she is.

I thank her for always being with me. 
No matter the distance and the time we will always be friends. 

I love you so much! <3
