Changes are changes


Hello, today I’m going to write about my wishes around the changes of my study program. In this time, our program of Psychology is being reformulated thinking in the future students. The team in charge of is the Curricular Innovation team, and they seem very interested in modify the study program in pursuit of the comprehensive training and the well-being.

If the work of transform my study program would depend on me, the changes that I would make to my study program are: I would reduce the homework that the subjects take into account, because we need time to read the texts that are essential to win knowledge. The homework is a big thing in our study program: sometimes we have to do tests in our homes.

In the specialization period, I would add new subjects, especially about some areas of psychology that are “hidden” in our academic trainings; these are: juridical and communitarian psychology. Also, I would like to question the bad habit of our University to normalize the high standard of demand.

In the “communication with other faculties” aspect, I´d love that our program had an option to take courses that complement our specific knowledge and open our close perspectives. While today we have the option, the process to take one is very tedious.

To make a vocational decision it was so hard for me, but today, when I feel the satisfaction of being in this campus and faculty, and of course when I feel like a real psychology student I think that it was a good election.

  1. I hate to do tests at home, because they take a lot of time (at least they aren't very frequent) and I strongly agree that taking courses is a tedious process, I hope someday it will be easier to take one, maybe if there were more vacancies or more extracurricular courses.

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.   

Intimate anwers

What is your opinion on the social networks and the effect they have on society?  I think that the social networks have a colossal influence in the society because the people generally talk about what they see on their screens. The social networks are able to create new perspectives in the individuals, which mosly of times is dangerous; especially now with the scandal of the Facebook.  What is your opinion on animal testing?  I am completely against of the animal testing. All the animal testing practices come from the "speciesist" principles that have been inherited of the Cartesian era, where the animals were judged like things; i mean, without soul and feelings. Today, I would like to make something clear: the animals are like one of them.   Actually, i value the "fighting animal testing" initiatives of some comestics brands, and i hope that all the ways of mistratment (even the hidden forms like this).   What is your opinion on ...

Sunny food

  Hello, today I’m going to talk about my favorite food of all the times. In first place, I have to say that I’m not so good at making decisions. So, I’m going to pick three of the mouth-watering foods that exist to me: porotos granados, humitas y pastel de choclo. In my grandma’ house there is a vegetable garden where she grows beans, corn, basil, pumpkins, etc.   All these products are the basic substrates to make the marvelous home-cooked food. In this sense, I have to recognize that I eat my fist favorite food (porotos Granados) every weekend in summer. Also, in that season I enjoy the humitas frequently in despite of the difficulty of cooking this (and many flies fly around them).    When I changed my diet to the vegetarian one, I was afraid because that decision would generate that, for example, I couldn’t eat my third favorite food. But my grandma showed up like a super heroin and made a Pastel de choclo with a base of soy.   Unbelievably, the...
