My favourite piece of technology 

I´m not really sure about what is my favourite piece of technology, because I have a relationship of love and hate with the two things who I use more. First, the smarthphone, when I got my first one like 3 years ago I didn´t really want one, but I feel that I need one because of my job to be on contact with my coworkers. I have to admit that is very useful, but I hate the fact that now the people need to be online all the time, with the cellphone in the hand like it was an extension of them, whatching it even when they are with someone else. 

And the second object is my computer, I remember like 10 years ago when my older sister was starting the university, she always had to search on books at the library or to go to the cibercafe, she spent a lot of time on research. Sometimes I think about that, and I realize  that I´m lucky because I don´t have  to do that, I have my computer who I bought with my own money from my work, and I can do my homeworks, read books, listen to music, and to watch series. I think this object makes my life a lot eassier, I try to use it like 1 or 2 hours at day, less possible. If I don´t really need it, I don´t use it, but I know I love it, if I don´t have it, probably I would have to do it like my sister, and stay all day at the university, go to the cibercafe and lose much time.

            When I was a kid, I rememember my dream was to be a vet, my parents never let me have a pet, but when I turned 12, my mom gave me a dog, and then I saw  really I  didn´t want to be veterinary. After that, I participated in a science fair, I made a volcano and I loved it, so I reallized I want to be a scientist, then I was always participating on science fairs, actually I won some.  But when I turn 15, my mom changed me of school, and my biology teacher hates me, and I hate her (I still do), in that moment I began to hate science class, and I lost my interest. All my science teachers were really bad, even I did´t have physics theacher in high school for 1 year. Except for my chemistry teacher in the first high school year, she was good, so I started to get interest again. In that year I thought that I wanted to study chemistry and pharmacy. But when I pass to third year on high school, because was an technical school,  I stopped  to have science class (music and arts too). I started to study accounting and when I finish the school, I did´t do the science PSU because I thought  that I didn´t know enough, my basis was too bad so I decided to study accounting at the university, but I never liked it. I reallized that I still wanted to study Chemistry and Pharmacy, study sciences and to feel that I can be more helpful studing Chemistry and Pharmacy than being an accountant. So I drop out the university, and started this year to study what I really want. I love it because I like science, and I wanted a carreer who was linked to health, so this carreer was perfect. My experience until now is great. I lost a few years but wort it.

My auto biography Task 1

My name is Esperanza Torres Díaz, I was born in Santiago, Chile, the july 20th,1994. My mother is Argentinean and my father Chilean. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother, currently i live with 2 of my sisters, my brother and my mom.

All the primary school I studied at the Liceo Miguel Rafael Prado, and the high school at the Centro Politécnico Particular de Conchalí were I studied accounting. After that, I studied 2 years public accounting and auditing at University of Santiago, but i didn´t like it, so I drop out in october, 2014.

Since 2015 I have worked while I was preparing for the PSU, and it was really difficult to learn science after all those years, but I got a good result on the PSU and was admit at the University of Chile on Chemistry and Pharmacy.

I like to play the guitar, piano and violin, read books about realism like Ana Karenina, magic realism like Love in the Time of Cholera , or dystopian fiction like 1984, A Happy World and the Animal Farm. Recently I´m learning Taekwondo and  I really enjoy it, but sometimes it hurts. Also I love to listen to  music such as heavy metal, thrash, classic rock, symphonic metal and classical music.
