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. 

How green are you?

                I think that the environment is important, and that we actually need to be immersed actively in protecting it for future generations because we are not getting another one to replace it (Yet) , but the true is, that I’m not as eco-friendly as I would like to be.

                Here in the university, I try to separate the garbage between: Glass, paper and cans, because we have trash cans for all that different types of garbage, but at home, we only have one trash can so, all the things that I do OK here I’m not actually doing them as good in my apartment.

                The place that I live now, does not has solar panels, and that is kind of a shame. All the things in my apartment use electricity to function (Even the kitchen). At home, I try not to leave the electrical appliances connected because even when they are not on, they use energy.  

                At home (The one in Temuco), my father has some eco-friendly devices in our bathroom that save water (Like a second charge of water, a smaller one, in the toilet or a shower that distributes better the water that you use), I like that, but still not as good as I would like it to be.

                I think that there is little things that you can actually do to be more eco-friendly, like saving energy and water and that if all of us do them, then we could do a mayor improvement in the conservation of our planet.

My future job.

Public administration is a multidisciplinary career, and because of that I don’t have an absolute idea of what I would exactly do in the future.

If there is something that I don’t like, is having a job where you only work in a little office doing the same thing day by day, seeing the same people, a routine. I know that a lot of the people that get into public affairs end like that, I could easily be the same, having the job that I hate, but the true is that I don’t really want that as a future.

                My dream job (a job that the people who get into this career can have), would be in the area of International relations, maybe in an embassy, or an International organization, but mostly somewhere out of Chile. I have always wanted to get into a position that allows me to travel around the world, get in contact with different cultures, situations and people, and get to know things that I never knew in person, things that I wouldn’t knew first hand if I stay here in Chile.

                I want to be able to cooperate to the public service of the international community in a lot of aspects more that I want to only do in a small place, I wonder if that is selfish…
