My semester!!

I think it's difficult to summarize my semester in a few words, but one that I highlight would be intermittent, due to many things, starting with the university we have gone through several strikes that have made the classes and practicals become more difficult, teachers They have become more demanding and we have all studied much more than before. Most of those who are studying "simulation" are throwing the bouquet but all due to the bad organization of the teachers and the distribution of practical and schedules, but you can always highlight beautiful things, my group of friends has been more present than ever , despite seeing us less for being all in different groups in simulation and skipping classes in the afternoon (that shouldn't happen hehe), we have supported as never, the few times we have are quality, so I could say that currently Our friendship is based on quality and not quantity.

In more personal areas has also been strange, with my family has gone well, there has always been much support among us but after the death of my grandpa has been a bit more sentimental, I don't know how to describe it but according to the situation is understandable , maybe for the same reason we have been more united, it is always said that in difficult situations it is when family support is most visible, and in my case it has been like that.

Myself in 10 years.

It's hard for me to see my life in 10 more years, I'm so used to having my days go by so fast because of all the load of the university that I never give myself the time to think about all this.

I see myself working in the public area, in a place where there aren't many economic resources and I have do everything but with the minimum, I would like to devote myself to the public area because I have always believed that working with the "people" is the only way to generate a change in the society, with the same idea I would like to help in the creation of public policies that put the less patients resources in the center. I would also like to do classes, I feel it's another way to help the society around you.

In the most personal aspect I would  like to live alone, I don't want a big house with luxuries, I'm satisfied only with a garden with lots of plants and a hammock to relax everything.

I would like to have a stable relationship but in which each one keeps their space, I would also have a puppy, I would also like to save a lot of my money to take a "sabbatical year" I feel that at this age it's the only time of my life where I could dedicate myself to travel the world, knowing different cultures and learning from them.

Psychosocial and Anthropological Bases of Health I"

Hi classmates:

Today I will talk about the subject that I have enjoyed most during this semester, not because it’s so entertaining but because it is very different to what we see in all courses, this is "Psychosocial and Anthropological Bases of Health I". In dentistry we are accustomed to see everything objectively but this course does the opposite, seeks to put us on the patient's side, we no longer dedicate ourselves to seeing the disease, we see the patient as a whole, we care about making them feel comfortable beyond just giving them the treatment and never seeing them again.

Some of the issues we have seen are the compassion in dentistry, this is summarized in trying to help the patient with the best possible disposition; we have seen different paradigms prevailing in health today and even public health.

I think I liked it because it makes me think in a different way, as I'm used to, focused on the patient, it's entertaining to see everything from a point of view that isn’t focused on the disease.

Greetings!

Dr. Alfredo Apip

Hi classmates:

Today I will talk about Dr.Alfredo Apip, he is 92 years  and is one of the most experienced academics, with more than 60 years practicing his profession, he is an academician in the department of Restorative Dentistry at the Universidad de Chile, and has always stood out for his teaching and vocation.

His topics of interest have always been the prevention in dentistry, promoting topics as simple as the brushing teeth, his career has been so remarkable that the central courtyard of the faculty bears his name, always highlighting his role in the society.

I decided to write about him because in the future I would like to dedicate myself to promote the health of people and prevent the occurrence of diseases but only on the base of simple methods where people can really get involved in their health, I believe that as dentists we can’t dedicate ourselves only to cure diseases, to see the beginning of the everything, just as Dr.Apip has done all these years.

Picás to eat around the faculty.

Near the university there are many places to eat rich and cheap food, but today I will talk about places where you can buy with junaeb, since we are dentistry students and spend a lot of money on materiles, so money is scarce for other things.

The best place is the Subway, it's my favorite place, I think as at least once a week, it's rich and cheap, they also accept junaeb. The most crazy thing is that I always ask for the same ingredients, just change the protein but it always tastes the same, since the vegetables and sauces do not change, I even remember them.

There is also the sushi place "rock the food", I discovered it recently and it is because near my house there is another branch, one day out of nowhere I saw a sign that said there was another in Indepencia and there I discovered that it was very close to the university, with Vania we have eaten "goyans" and it is very rich. It is on the same street as the Subway (Av. Independencia), but closer to the Clinical Hospital of the university.

Technology

It is very difficult for me to choose my favorite technological device, especially because I do not have much appreciation for these devices, in fact I consider myself quite "slow" in this sense, I would never exchange a book or a handwritten note
But the technological device that I use is my cell phone, model Huawei P9 lite, I have it since the summer, since February and I bought it after having worked all month, I changed it only because my previous cell stopped lighting and now live without phone is synonymous with disconnection.
To be honest I use it a little, I do not have mobile internet, so that influences me a lot, I mostly use it to talk with my friends and family, see things from the university and see memes, many memes.
What I like most about my cell phone is that it is very easy to use, it is as if I were explaining with pears and apples what to do.
Without my cellphone, I would not change much, I do not consider myself dependent on him, I would only change how quickly information arrives in every way.

Why did I choose this career?

When I was a child my dream job was to become an astronaut, because it was always like the sky, the starts, the moon and everything the space implicates.

When I grew up  I really liked the math in the school, it was my best subject,  so when I was 16 or 17 years  I thought  I should study Engineering, only because it was easy for me, but I didn’t take this option because I wanted to work with people, not  in an office. After the PSU, I really didn’t know what career to choose, so I made a list with the important things when planning my future, like the type of job, time of work, the artistic part (I always liked the work with hands) and the freedom to work in any place and Odontology was the best option because it had all the conditions I expect for a job.

Currently I really like my career, it’s demanding in many ways but it's gratifying to see the results when you do something correctly, It’s difficult and very stressful but I’m here and I wouldn’t change it for anything.

In the future I would like to work in the Ministry of Health making public health policies, because the public health Is one of the most important things for the population.

My autobiography

 I’m Josefa Antonia Sáez Rodriguez; I was born on April 21^st 1998, in the city of Santiago at the Hospital Clínico De la Universidad Católica.

My parents are Mabel and Eduardo, and I’m the second daughter, I have a one sister and her name is Mabel, like my mother.

I studied in many schools, I went to 4 different ones, Santiago school, Bellavista de la Florida School, Los Nogales school and Carmela Carvajal highschool, and in that last one I went to both secondary and primary, starting 7^th grade. At the present I study Odontology in the Universidad de Chile.

My hobbies are watching movies and series in Netflix, I really love romantic movies and Grey’s Anatomy, I think that I could watch series all the day, it’s like an obsession. Also I like to talk with my friends, eat something tasty and laugh about anything. Recently, in the summer, I learnt to embroider; this is a relaxing thing to me.

One important thing I like is that I go to church every Saturday, the first time when I went I was 14 years old and since then I could not leave it, this fills me of a lot of happiness.

Expectations

I think english is a very important thing in the world, many people speak it and it's considered a really good thing when you want to find a job.

For me,  it's very difficult to express in words what I think, so writing on a blog is a really big challenge and that’s why this class is not easy for me.
