POST 2: EXPECTATIONS FOR A NEW SEMESTER


This semester I'm only doing the subjects of the Diploma of Quantitative Methods of Psychosocial Research. In spite of this, I have a lot of objectives and expectations; first, I need to define my research topic for the PhD program, because at the end of this year I must take the qualifying exam. For this reason, I want to work on a topic related to the characteristics of my region of origin. My extracurricular activities are focused on meeting my friends from Arica, which also are studying in Santiago; travel across the city on my bike and watching movies in the cinema or on my computer. At the moment I'm not doing any activity at the university, because I was working the last year and didn't have enough time to participate in other activities (I hope to change that soon). Also, I wish to realize each of my subjects, and define my research topic, and finally able to go to visit my family in July.

POST 1: MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Everything you wanted to know about me and was afraid to ask (xD)


Let me tell you a little about myself... I was born on 03 November of 1984 in Arica, a city in the northern of Chile. I lived in this city for 27 years; I studied the basic education in three schools to finish my formation at the "Domingo Santa María" High School.
In 2008 I graduated as a Psychologist at the University of Tarapacá; at the present time, I'm doing the second year of the PhD in Psychology at the University of Chile, so I live in Santiago since 2013.
I'm the only man of four children, and my family is composed of a total of eight members.
I like computer games and read comics; also I like crafts and woodworking.
As a sport, I visit places in the city on my bike (I hope to make the road to "Cajón del Maipo" ASAP).
