Post 8: English language challenges

Imagen
I must start by saying that for me English has always been something difficult, it has never been something fluid and enjoyable. Since I was a child my parents have put me in after school English courses and academies, however I have not learned because I have not really been interested. What I say is unfortunate because I know that English is more than just a language, it is a professional tool. Well, at the university at least the learning has been freer compared to the college, which has made the experience more pleasant. It is also a more practical learning and at the time of taking the written or oral test, it is more friendly since we have practiced before in blogs or videos. That's the good thing. However, as it has been more free, I prioritize other courses and put aside the English tasks (as now, sorry teacher). Going back to talking about blogs, I think they are useful since as the topics are varied, it serves to expand the vocabulary that I lack. What I need is t...

Post 7: Changes to my study programme

Imagen
As you know, I study dentistry. It is a career that lasts 6 years. I am in my fourth semester and so far I have done almost everything online so maybe my perspective is different. Starting with the curricular mesh, I would change compressing the first and second physics and chemistry modules into one, since the matter of the first modules is a subject learned in school. On the other hand, although I have not finished the program, I have heard a lot that the duration of the degree is excessive, considering that there are universities in which the duration is 5 to 5 and a half years at most. Also in anatomy, I think it is very important to always do the workshops in the medical school to be able to see the anatomical structures in corpses. In my case we could not do it and I feel that it affected me in the evaluation. Finally, in terms of structure, I think the faculty is very weak at this point. In the preclinical we are always fighting against the technical problems that exist. The uni...

Post 6: My favorite food

Imagen
  In general I like all food, I eat everything, except meat. My family could say that the food I like the most is pasta because basically I eat them every time I can, I love them and they are easy to prepare, but no... my favorite food is a reinvention of pasta but more elaborate (according to me). I'm talking about lasagna. Why do I say it is a reinvention of pasta? because they are almost the same: dough with sauce, but also with cheese and other vegetables, baked. YUM. My favorite lasagna is the chard with cream from a restaurant I go to, although the one that is cooked at home is the classic one that Garfield eats, with bolognese sauce, but with vegetable protein because I am a vegetarian. Unfortunately I don't eat lasagna very often, only once a year for my birthday when my brother cooks it for me (and I love him so much for that). This is because the recipe has many steps so it takes a long time and I don't have that time. I would like to cook it more often be...
