My faculty :)

Today i'll talk about my faculty.
I study in the best university of my country, the University of Chile, but this is a state university, that means is more cheap compared with the private universities, but the teachers are the best.

My Uni, like it is a state university, has many problems in infrastructure, problems that I can't explain, because is cheaper than a private university, but still has a high annual fee with which could make many improvements.

If I administrate the money of my university and specially of my faculty I improve in first place the class rooms, because are very narrow and have bad acoustic, then buy better sound equipment with good speakers and microphone. Also reduce the number of student per room and hire more teachers for take the same classes simultaneously (because now in some classes my course is divide in two and take the same class in different days).

Now in terms of infrastructure I would create more toilets, because my faculty has a very large extent and only have three bathing areas for all students and would implement better supply of toilet paper and soap.

In class materials needed best examples of cadavers in anatomy since there are quite damaged if not completely destroyed. Improvements are needed also in labs, in terms of new machinery, and highest number of these.

In hygienic terms, my faculty has many animals, so many flies too, and bad smells that should be controlled better, so I hire more cleaning staff because the existing doesn’t rough with many tasks.

So as you can see my university doesn’t stand out for having the best tools, but excels in something more important for me that is the formation of the best professionals in my country and for being one of the best universities worldwide, and then despite material weaknesses, I am studying in the right place.

It has so many history, i love that, i like learn about other cultures, specialy when are cultures significant in the human development. Greeks are one of the most important civilization around the world. They left, histories, policy, documentaries,  greats philosophers, infrastructures, language, and the most interesting is that they still living, they currently remain.

Public Transportation

Transantiago it is the public transportation in Santiago of Chile Since 2006. Before the transantiago, we had in the city the "yellow busses" The new transport it was supposed to came to repair the shortcomings of the previous. Unfortunately it wasn't, because there were a lot of misinformation on the part of users on the one hand, and on the other hand, the system itself was awful. The project could have started better if they had organized. But it has slowly been improving.
In my opinion, the current system is better than before or is progressing better than the old. Firstly: It was implemented a card payment system, which makes it more efficient due to the card has a chip that allows travel on the same passage in a period of 3 hours and also be used in the subway.
 
Secondly: There are fewer thefts, because drivers don't handle money. Third: Drivers earn a steady income and they don't have to "run" by the passengers. Before it was common to see buses running at full speed through the streets of Santiago. Finally, it
have implemented best bus stops where there is information to know the routes of bus lines (trunk and feeder).
 About my experience in the Transantiago, I must say that IN GENERAL has been good. Obviously when it started I didn't like so much as most of the people. But now I learned to "move" on the new public transport, I must say most of the time it works fine, have increased the frequency of the routes, drivers comply with the bus stops, there are modern busses that can transport people with different physical disabilities for example.

To finish, still remains to be done, but is on track. For example, in the sense of time travel by bus, because many people prefer to travel by subway instead of bus because of the speed. Need to improve the lightning. The issue of the "graffitis" on the bus stops and inside to the busses, it should have a campaign to increase awareness of the people in the care of the most important transportation in Chile.

My kitten :)

This time i'm talk about my favorite pet, well my only one pet :( lol :). Almendra, a cat
 
One day, my older sister (teacher) brought her, because a  colleague's cat of she, had a big litter and she saw to Almendra, and she felt in love :). As you can imagine, in first place, the kitty belongs to her, but she never bought her food !!!, and when the last year she left my parent's house, she can't took the cat to her new home (is a building). And because of that we stayed with her in part, and on the other hand, because my parents and i ,really really love her.


I adore my cat, even she's so touchy. Is the angriest pet i ever met !!! But she gives peace, happiness, tenderness, and sometimes wild life to my home ! She's a princess :) 
Almendra has 4 years old, has almond-eyed. She was spayed when she was 1 year old and right now is a happy pet, of course. So, spay/neuter your pets !!!  Conscience !
I would like have many pets, but my mom does`nt want :( . I like dogs, birds, hedgehog, snake (joke), etc, etc. :)
