A song

 Lately I started to listen a lot to a song that I know since my childhood, “Ayer” by Hordatoj, Anita Tijoux, Phanty, Juan Chills and Dj Tee, all composers and singers of Chilean rap and hip hop. They collaborated on this song 12 years ago, it causes me a lot of tranquility and reminds me of when we used to travel with my family to beach “tocatas”, I remember the tranquility of the water and the wind, and how my parents friends played songs with very relaxing melodies.

The song talks about how the world and life changes you as a person, then it affects how he relates to his partner and his real feelings, he apologizes to the girl for his attitude and if she thought he really loved her. She responds that she loves him and how she feels about losing him. But what I like most about the song is not the lyrics, I like the instruments and the rhythm, predominantly a piano and a trumpet that put together a melody very similar to jazz but with the base of a hip hop. I have a very bad memory, especially with songs, but “Ayer” I learned it almost by heart, then it is one of the few songs that I can sing complete. This is the cover of the song:

My semester so far

This is my eighth semester, and it has been the most difficult and exhausting. I have my work practice, portfolio, undergraduate Seminar II, a CFG and English, which I had to repeat. This semester I went to live with my girlfriend in Quilicura and I spend a lot of my day traveling, I leave at 7 in the morning and arrive almost at 8 at night. And on weekends I work as a freelance designer. 

The class and day that I enjoy the most are wednesdays, I enter at 10:15 am to portfolio with a teacher who taught me in my first year, she loves me a lot and it is very nice to talk to her. She teaches us about the working world of our career and I have learned a lot thanks to her. The bad thing is that after I have to run to my work practice, and although I like to practice what I study, I am demotivated by how little they pay and design for people who do not know about design, then many times I deliver something that I do not like. I leave you a photo of my desk in my practice. 

I run all day between the university and my work practice, I arrive at my department to advance my research thesis, I do my university homework, I also cook every day or prepare enough food for two days, I love to cook, so it is a moment I enjoy very much.

On weekends I should have more free time, but no, I work (fortunately at my time, being independent), and with my girlfriend we move forward with improving our little house, we take the opportunity to buy furniture, paint, tidy up, and see what we can buy that we are missing, besides cleaning everything so we don't worry during the week. The good thing is that we try to go out for a walk at least once a week and every other weekend we go out to the disco, bar or to one of our friends' houses. We also like to smoke together, it's a lifestyle that relaxes us a lot. Without a doubt the most relevant thing of the semester has been living with my girlfriend, I do so many things that sometimes I explode, and she is there to hug me and help me in everything she can. I leave you a photo of the last bar we went to. 

A School Teacher

I don´t have very good memories of my teachers, but there is one that I remember the most. Teacher caro from chemistry. I met her in the first year of high school al the Camilo Henriquez High School, when I returned to live in Temuco. We were a very disorganized class, but she was always very kind, she taught with patience and kindness, we all did well with her. 

In the middie of my second year, I changed to the class where I was a homeroom teacher. When I arrived, she was very happy, because she was very fond of me. The class had been with hersince seventh grade, and I noticed how much they loved her as a teacher and a person. Teacher Caro always took the time to listen to us if we had any problem and always helped in any way she could. 

After seeing how she works, l knew the importance of teaching and the passion for the profession you choose. In the meddle og third year of high school, they changed the teacher for the mathematics teacher, Teacher Acevedo. Although I liked her a lot and he was kind to me because I was good al math and because he also taught my mother, the whole class was very angry and we fought for Teacher Caro to come back, although it didn´t work, the teacher never left us. 

When we finished fourth grade, the teacher and most of the class, started following each other on Instagram. now she is teaching at another high school, and she is always very happy with her children and her partner, she is very familiar. I am glad to know that she was okay, and she sees us grow and we our current lives. I wish her the best, she is an excellent teacher. 

Here is a photo of my high school.
