Videogames

I actually like videogames a lot, since I was little I have loved to play them with my cousins, father, or my little brother. We used to have a Super Nintendo and at that time, Mario world was the best thing ever that could happen to me, Omar, one of my cousins and me used to play almost every week that game, those are pretty lovely memories. I used to have a Playstation as well, but is not as dear as my Nintendo.

Now, I’m more into online games, from the really basic ones on my phone like Candy crush (This one has become an obsession), ‘Preguntados’ (That I play with my mother, or more like… she forces me and my brother to play with her) to my favourite, World of Warcraft, a game that I have been playing since 6 or 7 years ago (I don’t actually remember how much, could be less, could be even more). 

WOW is a mmorpg, a multiplayer game, you can be from two different factions that are in conflict in this fantasy world, the good thing is, that even with both factions having pretty complex history on both sides, none of the two can be catalogued as the ‘Good’ or the ‘Bad’ faction.

I play Horde, most of the times a Blood Elf or a Undead, I play with some friends that live here in Santiago but that I got to know online when I was still living in Temuco.

I like playing games, I don’t have the time that I used to have, but I still play them. 

Career related... Kind of.

The webpage that I would like to talk about is Scielo, and this is the link: http://www.scielo.cl/

Scielo is a webpage that basically is a Scientific Electronic Library Online (That is what it actually says in the web). I used to go there a lot more in my other career, because we had the ABP system there (Apredisaje basado en problema), and we used to read and need papers for every class. I don’t use it that often now, but still helps me when I'm in need of a paper. 

I like that I can look there and have a reliable source of information without going to the big libraries online (Like Medline in the health area, a database that I used a lot), but I like it especially because it has papers in Spanish (More than the rest of the databases) and you can put the page in Spanish as well.

You can search by author, subject or key words. In general is a good place to start an investigation and a good place to go back when your are lost in all the information available in english.
