My future in Psychology


Hello, after a few weeks of a “blog hiatus” I’m would like to talk about my plans in terms of my specialization in my study program (remember that the future is so dynamic).
I’m an enthusiastic psychology student. I enjoy discovering new aspects of my program. In my second year, I am getting close to the whole experience of university studies.
Until now, my favorite subject has been Social Psychology because we can learn the fundamentals of the relationship between the individual and society. In addition, Social Psychology try to fight the bias that permeate our erroneous conceptions about the historical state of the society. In that sense, I’d love to take a major that includes topics of Social Psychology like group dynamics, social influence, stereotypes, prejudices and everydayness.
Besides, this year I fell in love with a new subject: Psychopathology. That makes me feel that I’m going to be interested in Clinical Psychology, like everyone finally happens. The clinical psychologist is the stereotyped image of our career. For that reason we have to understand (like psychologist in the process of) that the Psychology take part in the reflection of multiple phenomena, beyond those are encapsulated in a cubicle of a hospital or a psychiatric clinic (this is very relevant, by the way).

A selfish biography

Hello, i am Horacio Andrés Román Navarro i came from Curacaví, Santiago and i have lived there all my life: a "born and raised". I was born in November, therefore i am Scorpio (It was a premature birth, and unfortunately I could have been Sagittarius). I like to say that I am a timid person, however, your impression relating me it could be different. Finally, like a particularity, I am an only child. In my free time, I enjoy read, especially Hispano-American literature (my favourite author until now is José Donoso) and dramaturgy in his classic and emergent version. Also, I like to go to the theater and cinema, and then do critical texts about it (visit in web the page “Jóvenes Críticos GAM”). Besides, my favourites bands are Belle and Sebastian and Camera Obscura , which coincidently came from Glasgow, Scotland. 

A big decision

  First of all, I would like to mention that my vocational decision to enter to the University was too hard. I had so many interests (and I’m still having it). For that reason, I think that the system of postgraduate studies is made for me (an egocentric perspective) because I could choose different courses and subjects that would complement my base career. Also, I think that when I finish Psychology I would like to study other Program.   The variety is dangerous for me. When I think in my postgraduate studies I feel confused again. However, nowadays the interrelation between different areas of knowledge has good “status” (multidisciplinary). If I had to choose today, I would like to study courses like drama, literature or ecology. If you are wondering why I don’t consider subjects in a direct relation to the Psychology, I’m doing it too.     I think that the postgraduate studies are the best opportunity to travel to other places, because your academic training...

Headphones in my life

My favorite piece of technology are the headphones, because is the means to listening to my music and to live the experience to stay closer to my dear bands. I used every day my headphones, and when that didn’t happen, probably it will not be a good day.    Now, I am going to talk about one of those bad days:  when I forgot my headphones in some classroom. When I realized of it, I felt terrible because I didn´t know what had happened with them. Later, I thought about the places where I could find my valued headphones… but nothing! Fortunately, I remembered that I was in the Aularios during the morning and like a datum: I always keep my belongings under the tables. With that feeling, I went to talk with the Aularios’ assistants and they allowed me to come into the classroom. Despite my pessimism, I amazingly found my headphones safe and sound. Since of that trouble, I look after my headphones like a saint bone.
