  Changes to my study programme  write about any change that can be made in my study program as a first-year student and that her first year was in pandemic and online, it is difficult, but I will talk about my little and short university experience.  I haven`t finished my first year, but in my first semester I found some courses very theoretical, if I had to change something it would be that they were more practical, I am not a big fan of CFGs, I do not like the idea that they are compulsory and that it is so difficult to take these courses, any person who i asked, they could not take a CFG because they were rejected, and it would be great if they were volunteers, so that Students do these activities for fun and to disconnect from academics and not just to collect the credits required by the university. I can't talk much about faculty facilities, like buildings and infrastructure, it's been two weeks since I started with face-to-face classes, but it looks prett...

  Time travel to the future Traveling to the future would be great, although at the same time it scares me, there are many possible futures and in my opinion I think they are all bad.  I would like to travel to the future to the countries of the first world, Europe in specific, such as Finland or Denmark.  I would like to know these countries in the 2990, almost reaching the year 3000, because I believe that in the future the world will be destroyed due to the climate crisis but the richest countries will be able to survive, and that people who want to continue living will have to fight to obtain a place in these countries that had to adapt to survive the aggressive climate change. I believe that these countries would build domes that cover the entire country to protect themselves from UV rays, pollution and keep this air that is breathable for human beings. They would also build giant walls on the coasts to avoid the great swells that occur, they would also be prepared f...

The education system in South Korea South Korea is recognized for being the first world ranking country as the country with the best results in reading comprehension and mathematical knowledge and a good grade in scientific competence. Through education the country was rebuilt after the war both socially and economically, an objective that still remains in essence today. The fundamental principle of the entire Korean education system is to promote training as a means of economic growth in the country. The patriotic feeling is very deep and the will of the students to contribute to the development of their country is widespread. Despite being one of the nations with the best education, this system has several and too big cons, overexertion and effort of students, both school and university, serious mental health problems in young students and abuse of power by the teachers. There are marathon study days: six or seven hours of class at school, plus four or five hours of private class...

 My pet  My pet is a cat, her name is Coco, she is about 2 and a half years old, weighs a little more than 5 kilos, her fur is 50% white and 50% Roman, has an orange nose and beautiful yellowish green eyes. In my house we already had a cat, which belongs to my older sister, but I also wanted one for myself, I begged my parents for about 3 months and just at the end of April 2019, the cat of the family of my cousin's boyfriend, had kittens, I told my parents that this was a great opportunity and they accepted. My cousin and her boyfriend had to travel to his family in Curico to look for Coco, that day Coco got lost, they couldn't find her, they spent 3 hours looking for her, they gave up and were going to return to Santiago, until finally it showed up, I put it in a box and they brought it to me. Coco means a lot to me, she has been my great companion these 2 and a half years who has been with me and has been an enormous emotional support during the pandemic.

Television programs that I watched as a child I was always a fan of watching television, when I went to school, before going out I turned on the TV to watch cartoons, and the same thing barely came from school, I liked almost all the channels, my favorites were Disney, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Networks, and when I grew up a little I liked Boomerang, which sadly doesn’t exist today. Of the programs that I watched when I was very little, I don't have many memories but my parents told me that they really enjoyed a children's program called "The little plane jayjay" and "Caillou", in fact I apparently liked it so much that my grandparents gave me the toy of "The little plane jayjay". When i grew up i started watching shows like "The wizards of weverly place", "That's so raven", "Zach and Cody", but my favorite was "Hannah Montana". When I wanted to see cartoons, I looked at the best channel for that, the...

The best holiday ever The truth is, I have only been to one concert in my life, so i cant talk much about this "experience", but I have had the opportunity to travel several times, so I am going to tell you about my best holiday ever. These holidays were in the last week of January of 2020,yes, it was the last "normal" summer before the pandemic. I went with my family to Miami Beach and this trip lasted eight days. During my stay there, I toured the many and huge shopping centers that Miami is known for, I went to the most famous beaches, I visited one of the most famous streets of Miami, Ocean Drive, a street known for its great parties. This street has appeared in various movies, as a curious fact, a scene from Scarface was filmed here, and here is the Versace house, where Gianni Versace was murdered, today it is a museum and restaurant. And also visit the AmericanAirlines Arena, where the Miami Heat basketball team is local. These have been my best vacation...

Italy   Europe is one of the most important tourist destinations in the world, where it stands out for its beautiful landscapes, places and architectures. Here countries like France stand out for its museums and Germany for its beers, but today I will talk about beautiful Italy.   Italy is one of those countries that every person with the soul of a traveler dreams of visiting from a young age, my desire to visit Italy began when I saw the movie Lizzie Mcguire when I was little.   Watching her walk through the La Fontana di Trevi and take Vespa motorcycle rides through the center of Rome, made me fall in love with this country.  What I know about this beautiful country and what it is characterized by are its old Renaissance buildings and its exquisite cuisine.   What I would like to do if I visit this country would be to enjoy a delicious pizza and take my typical photo with the tower of Pisa.   I would love to work or do an exchange to Italy, al...
