Pandemic thoughts

The pandemic brought loneliness, confinement, anxiety, scared, poverty and hopeless for most of the population. There is people dying everywhere and not only from covid but from hunger as well so that to tell what i wanna tell right now maybe  would sound like i didn´t be concient of how lucky i am compared to a lot of people, but i just want to tell my experience. I hope you to understand. 
Personally I've been through a lot of moods but i specially have felt anxius. Confinament and college are not a good mixed. Sometimes, when all this started i felt like going crazy (most of times) and i needed to calm down so i started to do old things i used to love: painting and creating. That was the solution for my anxiety but not for my grades hahahan i spent too much time trying to calm down and so little studying. I honestly don´t regret. Mental health is always first. That was what i did at first semester. 
This semester i have felt specially stupid. I feel like everyone in college know more than me or learn faster than me. At first my self esteem fell but then i realized that our career, grades or our efficiency don't define us at all. College is just a little piece of our lives or should be (that's what i think). All we should be defined from hundred of differents pieces. Pieces like our friends, our values, our pleasures, our energy, our vitality. Human pieces. Pieces of our soul. I think life is about what we have inside. Nothing else get sense at the moment of dying more than just have  lived and been happy.
After all of that thought i started to do what i wanted to do (biking, painting, sharing time with my family, etc) no matter the pressure of college. There i started to enjoy this year.

    Your thought made me consider a lot of thing about what I've done in this pandemic. I think we get really pressured by university and that isn't good for us.

    It is selfish to say it but it is crazy to know that one is never alone, living things alone the same, one always knows that there are many people equal to or worse than one but it is different to read it

Summer vacations- 2015

Imagen
  When I went to LA in 2015 to study i arrived when High School was in summer vacation so my aunt and my uncle got me traveling a little bit around the country. I visited Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Hollywood, Santa Mónica and I stayed in Arizona one night.  Hollywood is located relatively near to where I was staying in LA so I went twice  (one time with my aunt and uncle and another one with a friend).  I walked in the walk fame and knew celebrity houses. Hollywood streets are always full of streets artist and celebrities imitators.  I traveled to Las Vegas (Nevada) and Grand Canyon (Colorado) by car with my aunt, my uncle and my gradmom. First we went to apreciate Grand Canyon view, there an squirrel sat on me during I was contemplating a wonderfull sunset. Sunsets in Grand Canyon are from another world. The sky is a painting of intense warm colors  and a few strokes of lilac. After of that magnific day we stayed in a Arizona Hotel where we swam in a heated pool. Arizona is exactly how

Biochemestry

When i was in school i didn´t know what i liked. I wanted to be arquitect, medic and lawyer, three professions completely different. I did not get the higher califications, in fact, i didn´t have very good grades.  I didn't learnt too much in school, my life spined around sports and no more, but at the final course I learnt a lot of phisic and biology because of I went to another school where education was more personalized.  When I graduated  from school I entered to a pre-college, there i learnt a lot more of science. I decided that biology was what i wanted to work with the rest of my life. I passionate biology. I feel interested about how nature works, included ourselves. I searched about professions that study these stuff i interested  and i found the Biochemestry. I only got in the college career and here i am.  Biochemestry is a profession that contributes too much to the society. It isn´t considered by people but biochemestry keep them alive and they are not concient of it.

Santorini, Greece.

Imagen
I have always dreamed of traveling to Greece. Greece is a country full of mitology and that make it very interesting. Greece is full of history and beautiful palaces that will make anyone to travel the past. The blue and white arquitecture of the island makes my eyes to dance.  If you ask me the reasons to go i would answer: THERE IS A MILLION REASONS TO GO GREECE, but the most important reason is called: SANTORINI. Just go and watch the images and then you will understand what i am talking about.  To live in Santorini must be like living between  clouds, i'd love to. Just watching Santorini's pictures i get myself full of feelings. Santorini gives me peace and makes me feel free. It is the perfect place to set free from reality. Another important fact that i love is that Greece is the paradise of the party, there is no reason to be bored if you stay there: JUST GO MYKONOS!
