BLOG 2: WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS PROGRAMME/CAREER?

Hello there, this week i'll write about why i choose this career.

Well, when i was a boy i had a lot of options about what i wanted when i grew up. I'll tell you a few options: Painter, firefighter, poet, a famous rockstar etc. always when someone asked  me "what do you want to do when you grow up" i had a different answer.

In the high school that question turned to What do you want to study when you get out to the high school, an uncomfortable question. I didn't really want to study something and nothing exited me. The time passed and in the last year of high school i had to take a choice. In my mind i had the option to study History, psychology or philosophy. My history teacher told me "Nico, please don't study History" and that sounded really convincing. So i had to choose between psychology and philosophy. Finally i chose Philosophy but i left the career the second year.

After thinking what i want for my life and search a lot of options I chose study Anthropology because i don't know jaja I only knew it, something like an intuition. Later,  i knew the career of Anthropology in the University of Chile had the option to study Archaeology and that sounded awesome to me.

My experience in this career has been great, I have learnt a lot, I found a great group of friends and i believe studying anthropology is good decision.

When i graduate  i would like to work doing Archaeology of recent past, for example in ex "centros de detención, tortura y exterminio" of the dictatorship or work doing Etno-Archaeology in the V region of Chile.

   

Blog 1: My autobiography 

Hello, my name is Nicolás Andrade and now in my firts post I want to introduce myself

I was  born  in Viña del Mar, Chile in december 18th of 1996- I'm Sagittarius- I was born in the Hospital Naval of Viña del Mar beacause my father is a navy oficer  so in a few month later we haved to moved to Caldera (north of Chile ) with him. We live in Caldera untill i was 5 years old, then my father have to move to Punta Arenas but my mother don't wanted so they broked.

After that, my mother, my little brother Camilo and I moved to Limache. We moved to live with my mother's gandparent.  In Limache i have my firts memories c:

I studied kindergarden, 1rs and 2nd grade in Rosa Martinez school and there i met my firts friend called Nuncio Cabada. In 3rd grade I go to Limache College, another school of Limache, I studied there untill 8th grade after that me and my family moved to Viña del  Mar to search a better life- I think-.

I arrive to Viña del Mar in 2011 with my mother, my brother, my grandparents and the mother of my grand mother and  my childhood dog Syntia <3 - woow a lot of people-. Sadly syntia scaped of our new house so I hated it, and I hate viña, and my news classmate and my family and everything.  I missed Limache so bad.

I studied my high schools years in Panamerican College, a school close to my new house. 

In 2015 I began to study Philosophy at University of Valparaiso, after 1 year there i get depresion so I left the career in 2016 a few moths later I began to work in Mcdonald's - I haved a joke about that, a said to my friends of philosophy that I  save 5 years to beagan to work in Mcdonald's* - . 2016 was a sad year, uwu but a decidied to make my own "into the wild" and in October 2016 I traveled alone around the south of Chile, that was an important moment for me because i learned to know my self i knew what i wanted to my future. 

Last year i worked in a cafe and a studied in a preuniversitario and this year i  began to study Antropology in the University of Chile and I like it and i want to be an archeologist.

In my free time i like to play music, read mangas and latinamerican literature, go out with my friends, watch movies play board games, travel and camp. 

So that is all i think,  i hope that you enjoy my post, leave a message. 

What do you want to know? 



* In Philosophy we said that after graduate we will work in Mcdonald's
