My favourite get-away

The first place that come to my mind when I hear the word get-away is Santa Cruz. It's a comuna located in southern of Peralillo, west of San Fernando, in the sixth region. In that place my best friend, Verónica, grew up. I knew Verónica in "Preuniversitario", since I know her family too, because she bring me to Santa Cruz that summer. Her family lives a country life. The house is in a place called I"Isla de Guindo", there, Aunt Noe is in charge of it. She have a special mood, but I think she like me now. The house is very large with a lot of rooms within and it's very old too (paranormal phenomena have occurred there according to my friend).
Every time my friend can, take me there, generally in winter or summer holidays. I love that place because it's far of everything that stresses me during the year. In that place I can rest and clean my lungs with pure air and I can fill my stomach with country food. There is a river near of the house and it's perfect for the hot days of the summer.
There Verónica knows every body and every places, because it's a little town. Generally, we go with our another friends and we tour the museum, the casino, the bakery (where the administrator love my friend a lot and sometimes give us cakes or ice creams) and in the night we play cards.
We have lived several experiences there and I hope to go again soon.

This is the rhythm of my life...

Hiya bloggers, this time I'm going to write about the music, specially the music I like.

I acquiresd my pleasure from several sources. My parents are fourty four and fourty six, I mean they are of 80' decade, age in wich there were many up and coming bands and styles. Thank sto my dad I enjoy to listen Queen, Simply Red, and many others. I like the musical quality of that music. On the other hand, thanks to my mom, I listen the most popular romantics songs in Spanish, also known as "Música cebolla"of that age. I rescue the letter of that kind of music, although it's often corny.

I was born in the beginning of 90' therefore I like the music that sounds in that time, especially techno. I remember that my favorite radio was Carolina where the techno sounds all day with bands such as Corona, Vangaboys, Aqua and La Bouche. I still love dancing with that music at parties, also with older songs such us Donna Summer, Kc and the sunshine band and Kool and the Gang and newer electronic music. This music make me happy too.

I have gone acquiring tastes of music with the pass of the years and friendships too. I like dancing "merengue", "salsa" and " rock and roll" too, but only to dance.

Sometimes when I don't want to get bored, in the bus for example, I prefer to listen energetic music, rock music, and the bands I like are gothics, for example Nightwish and Epica (I like some techno Gothic bands too). But when I want to relax or concentrate me I listen classic music.

Sometimes I listen Play radio, they have very good music.

I prefer to avoid the reggaeton, the very very old music and very loud and guttural metal.

The End?

Writing a blog has been a interesting experience. I had the idea to write a blog before, but I didn't know about what topic to discuss and that activity in English class has taught me I can write and express any topic, any idea, "anything". This blog will become a little place of reflexions, expressions and catharsis.

Although I have to write in English I amused writing post and reading another post. The topics discussed have been simple, but they have been good to remember and learning words and clearing doubts up. The topics also has brought my career closer so I learnt a little more about Physical therapy and any terms related. It's important to me knowing the opinion of another persons about this topics too.

The advantages doing this blog have been learning to straighten my ideas and put them in a coherent way to express I really want to say, in English. I have learnt new terms too, and how ton use a blog. Its good to do the activity in class because I can ask my doubts to the professor directly and immediately.

The disadvantages have been, as the blog has to do in one class, sometimes it's more difficult to finish at time the blog, because the topic is very simple and there are so much words to write, or that day I wasn't in the mood to write and my mind was slow.

However, after that English class finished I'm going to follow writing in this blog, maybe not in English, but I want to follow writing (poems, short stories or simple thoughts) and expressing me.

A little look at the future...

I trust I'm going to reach my expectations if I follow making an effort. So I see myself working and doing an post- degree in seven years. Later I'll travel and probably I'll be working in Canada or Australia, I love that idea because I always have wanted to live abroad, and after of many years to come back to Chile. I'll be practicing Neuro-phycal therapy and I'll be living in a flat with Ganiel, my friend, who are going to accompany me while he practice Occupational therapy.We have talked about that idea before. Probably we'll be working in the same hospital and I think we could earn a good salary and we would save money up for our future project. We'll be living abroad for many years and we'll come back to Chile later.
We'll stablish a rehabilitation center here and we'll apply a multidiciplinary work and we'll use the experience we earned abroad. I will probably have family in those days. I'll follow working and specializing me. That place would be the designed by my friend Mario who will be an great architect. It will be a differnt place compared with traditional rehabilitation centers, with green areas, spacious and lit with natural ligth. We will use alternative medicine too. I'd like in that this place would have a friendly and comradeship between the staff working there.
I hope my dreams are fulfilled, different things can happen in the future and even my dreams can change and the only thing I can do it's to try to achieve it.

PD: C'mon Chile!!

Prophylaxis

Better safe than sorry, we must to take care about our body to avoid to put it in risk.
A physical therapist see cases of respiratory disease and neuro-muscle-skeletal system and a part of his/her job is to educate to the patient about plans of prevention.

In respiratory area, to prevent infections, the most important action of prevention is to wash our hands, because we unconsciously take our hands to our mouth and nose (the channels of entry to our body). So we can to prevent another sickness too. The group of risk in that case are elderly people and unweaned babies, for which exist vaccine against flu virus. Winter is the station with more consultations caused by ARI.

In neuro-muscle-skeletal area we can find group of risk too, such us elderly people which have weak bones, atrophied muscles, wore out cartilages, and another pathologies related with the age, and sporty people which are more prone to get traumatic injuries. So elderly people have to take care about his/her physical state, doing moderate exercises and avoid sedentary behaviors, and sporty people have to use the corresponding equipment.
The factors of risk we must to avoid are diabetes (that causes bad reparation of tissues), gender (women are more prone to get osteoporosis), sedentary behaviors (that causes atrophy, osteopenia, and another alterations), hurts (we have to do and asepsis), alcohol, smoke of cigarettes and not to do an appropriate pre-warm up, between others.

Take care your body :)

Eva and Adan today

It's evident the physical and psychological differences between men and women, caused by genes, hormones and fisio-biological cycles. Biologically a woman has been born to be mother and a man due his physical condition has been born to be a supplier. They form a couple. That roles are been kept for centuries, the woman like mother staying in the house with the children and the man like supplier working and bring sustenance, being the boss. Anyway in sexual act a woman is conditioned to receive and a man is conditioned to give, giving them passive and active roles.

However, the society continuously is changing by new knowledge, education, culture, technology, needs, etc., I mean, a change of paradigm.

Today, in our society, a woman don´t born to be a mother and a man a supplier, she and he have had to combine rolls. It´s common seeing single mothers, workers women and women bosses, women with voice and decision. The women have won roles which belonged to men before and men have lost power over her. It attracts the attention that while the women win field in masculine areas, men cannot do the same without being prejudice victims.

As we live in a diverse world, the different cultures defines the roles that correspond to woman a man, so we must be understanding and tolerants, thus we can live harmoniously.

Full paunch, happy heart...

Some people felt guilty when they eat food that commonly are considered unhealthy food. In my case, I don't have that remorse, because I belong to that damned race (according to a friend's mom) that can eat all they want and not gain weight.

I have most preference for desserts and sweet food. I love all types of cakes and I cann't decide my favorite. I learnt time ago to make lemon pie, I love it so much, so I make it every time a can.

I like so much candies, chocolates, honey, fruits, cakes, cookies, etc. Sometimes, I think I'll probably obtein diabetes, when I am old man, so I try to curb me.

However, I love salt food too, and my favourites are home-made food, especially the food that my granny prepare, such us "sopaipillas", tortillas, pasties, stews, and the best of all: "porotos granados". Oh! I got hungry, ñam, ñam.

Sometimes, my friends and me go to "Patio Centro" to eat. That place is frecuently our meet point. There we buy fast food, we eat often in Doggis about 4 super large chips boxes to 5 persons.

I have to admit I eat a lot, but I cann't support to eat so much fat, because it produced me nausea. I like to eat, and I try that is natural, because I am conscious artificial food is very damaging to my body because can produce severe pathologies, like cancer.
