My favourite animal

(Pumita)

Hi everyone!!

Today I tell you about my favourite animal =)…Well as typical student of veterinary medicine I love almost all animals (if not all), but I have a special attachment with the felines, and obviously with the most close to the humans, the CATS!
I have 3 cats now, but I would have more if my dad didn't hate them. I love the cats since I have memory, because they are so cute, very independent and kind in the same time! I know that the people say (specially my dad): “the cats are treacherous”, but I very disagree with this expression, because my own cats show me the contrary all the time: accompanying me when I’m alone, sad or when I need it . Although I can’t ignore that they are very intelligent too, then when they are hungry: they say “meow”, rub their bodies in ours legs, run to the kitchen, until fulfill their missions (they never abort it).
How I say before, I have loved the cats always, but I fell in love with them because my old cat, Pumita. It was the best partner that I have had ever and the best example of the perfect pet too. I found it under my daddy’s car (it was hiding from a dog) and in that moment we made a special bond. It was very very loyal with me and it accompanied me to all places: to my room, couch, garden, kitchen and including to the bathroom (sometimes) hahaha. Oh I miss it =(!
Furthermore the cats are versatile because they are spoiled and playful, like my cat, Blankita, sometimes it lick me and stroke me, but in other moments, it jumps to my feet for attack, and after it run away quickly.
BUT! I think that there are exceptions, how in all things, there are cats less loving, like my other cat, Chucky (yes yes it is its name, she called Chubi, but we had to change its name, you can imagine why), it is very unfriendly, but I think that it is of this way because my sister found it when it was 2 or 3 days old, in the street, with 2 kittens more. Chucky hadn’t a good beggining, I think.
Finally: I LOVE THE CATS even though they were like my Chucky because it accompanies me and it is loyal anyway (How say in TV commercials: “Cats are the best”). I think that I could be feline doctor and put a feline clinic with my friend Dany, I don't know yet...

Places of Santiago.


Hi everyone! Today I will suggest you about some places of Santiago, which I think you can to visit if you aren’t of this city! (Or if you have not visited it yet).

The first place is “Barrio Bellavista”, I like it because can do different things in there, as visit the “Saint Cristobal hill”, where you can walk, make exercise, connect with the nature and in the top you can see Santiago, and it‘s free!! Furthermore if you dislike walk you can rise in cable car. Also you can go to the Metropolitan Zoo. And in the night you can drink something with your friends in any Pub of Pio Nono Street.

The second place is “Barrio Lastarria” where you find the “Saint Lucia hill” or “Huelen hill”, this is smaller than previous hill, is easy arrive there, owing is near of the underground. In the other side of the street is the artisan fair Saint Lucia where you can buy earrings, pants, musical instruments (like bongo or charango), etc.

The third place is “The Dominicos Town” that located in “Las Condes”. If you like the handicraft, you will love this place, because is the biggest artisan fair in Santiago, it has more than 160 workshops! The artisans make beautiful things using different materials for example metal, wood and ceramic. Also it is a nice place, because is an old church.

The fourth place is “Sculptures's park” in Providencia. This Park was founded in 1982 and today has over 30 sculptures. I like it because is a relax place, you can be quiet in there, you don’t hear the noise of the city, spite is in the middle of Santiago.

And the last place is “Forestal Park” that has 12 há. where there are museums, coffees, monuments, trees and also there are street performers and jugglers in the weekends. You can walk, rest in the grass, see the performances, eat something… etc! And a freak data: Tunick took the nude pictures there.

You don't need a lot of money to visit these beautiful places of Santiago. Moreover if you don’t know these places, you don’t know Santiago.

Death penalty


Hi people!

Today I will tell you about one topic very very complicate, the Death Penalty. Uff I think that talk about this is hard, because we live far of this reality and of the age when it was a common practice, although in the world has countries that admit the death penalty yet (some in very special occasions and others countries in crimes “more common”).

Well in my opinion the death penalty should not exist yet, for many reasons. One of these is that this practice doesn’t change the past, and the errors of the prisoner will not erase with this action, moreover that person is not paying for his crime (if he died).

On the other hand, the executor (or executors) is turned in to an assassin and he has to live with this all his life, I would not want to be him (oh poor soul!).

And finally I think, What happens if the executed was not culpable? This had occurred in the past and… What is the solution? It doesn’t exist.

Lastly I know that some countries permit, accept and use the death penalty, and I ask myself, Why they believe that have the control of the persons’s lives (or of the day of his death)? Maybe They want keep the people scared, to have the control on them (Well this idea is a bit macabre) I don’t know.
