A picture I like

     I don't remember who took this picture exactly...  maybe my mom.

     In this photography I was with my father walking in the centre of Santiago and  probably a saturday's day because we gone out all the weekends.

     If I remember correctly this day we go to the Zoo.

     I believe this photography was taken about... 15 or 16 years ago when I was 2 or 3 years old. Perhaps from 1996

     I like and more than like I love this picture because I was with my dad and my mom (although she don't appear in the photography). We gone out together all the saturdays after my father turn off his work... I remember that we gone to the cinema, zoo, parks and sometimes we gone out with my two brothers too (I have one VHS where we were together in Parque O'Higgins) I like this picture also because my mom made the dress that I have on. (Until now I have it!! :3).

What's my opinion about...

• What is your opinion about the Chilean politicians?

About these persons I think that they have salaries  millionaires and and  never do well their job (which is really important) because they don't put in the people's behalf. Also, I think people are never 100% agree with something because exists diversity and free expression also.

•  What is your opinion about killing stray dogs?

I think it is  very unfair decision because If the irresponsible people wouldn't exist either would exist stray dogs. I think the people are the real problem... at least their form to thinking.

• What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?

I think that this is the best idea in the world because although the marijuana is illegal a lot of people consume it. And I think it helps to recover some illnesses (ailments) (I say that by close experience)

• What is your opinion about fortune telling? 

About this I believe and think: "The fate shuffle the cards but we play it (the cards)".
I think that... ourselves construct our lifes... I really  believe in the Law of Attraction :)

• What is your opinion about owning an exotic pet? 

I think all the animals should live free  in the nature! None  as a pet.

Just as we live in our homes they also have a great home and perfect otherwise. Except for dogs and cats that have been domesticated for several years I think it would be more harm than good for them.

Why do I want to be a vet? =)

           

          When I was eight years old I remember that I wanted to be a teacher of Language, but  two years later I wanted to be a pediatrist

           At secondary school I was determined to get into the PDI... :O           

         I didn't get other career as option because in my last year at school I opted for study veterinary medicine because I discovered that all life I had loved animals, they had been very important to me so I wanted to learn more about them and  to give them all my love and all the help that they need at once.

        Until now I've loved my career!! I believe that the schedules are exhausting but the career itself is spectacular <3

        As also I liked for a time the idea to get into the PDI I think I'll come to be a MVZ (Veterinarian Zootecnist) doing investigations about humans and animals deaths too. 

           But  I want to have a veterinary clinic too because the dogs and cats are my life.
