Your favorite piece of technology

Hi!! Today I will talk about my favorite piece of technology, and it’s my phone! What it is? My phone is like a little notebook, because it has everything and I can do a lot of things that I like, as listening to the music, watching videos and taking pictures. I got my first phone when I was twelve years old, I don’t remember about it, I got my actual phone around three years ago, it’s a Motorola 3G but I don’t remember why I got it, maybe it would be for my birthday? I don’t know. The only thing that I remember it’s that day I was so happy. My phone is important to me, because with it, I can communicate with my friends that I don’t know (I talk with friends from other countries, like Mexico, Argentina, etc) and the University sends emails constantly , so, I spend around two or three hours per day. I like it, because it is like a little notebook, I can do everything with it. My life wouldn’t change that much if I didn't have my phone, because I am not depending on it. I would use my notebook for checking emails of the university or communicating with my friends on Facebook, I would take pictures with my camera, for example.  

Why did do you choose this major/study program?

When I was child my mom said “You should be a Doctor in the future or something like that” but I was around seven or eight years old, so small! So I didn’t know a lot about the future and majors. Also, I didn’t have dreams about what I should do in the future, I only thought to be happy. When I was 10 years old I went to the dentistry and the attention was so good, I felt great, and the doctor took care of me. He explained all the things that He did, so I felt very safe with him. My mom asked me if He was good with me and I said “Mom, I want to be like him in the future, I want to be dentistry” He inspired me. Since this time I decided to study this major.

  I like this university because they incorporate all the information for us, since basic things and more. And, we don’t have theology classes like at Universidad Católica. My experience studying this major has been so variable. Last year I was so stressed because I had so much of new information and pressure. This year is so difficult; we have a lot of challenges and a lot of study. It’s difficult to have time and relax myself, the stress is horrible, however, I still love this major. In the future, I would like to work in rural sites, with people that don’t have the access to go to the dentist and help them! Or maybe, studying an specialty like Radiography or Pathology.

My auto biography

My name is Angela Alvear Chavez; I’m 19 years old and I from Santiago, Chile. I studied elementary and high school at the school named San Carlos, of Quilicura. Currently I am studying odontology at an University named Universidad de Chile, It’s my second year, although, I’m a little bit tired. I have two siblings called Antonia and Ricardo, also, I have my mom, dad and my sweet dog. In these months, I tried to dance and sing a lot of songs, but it’s difficult because I have so much things to study so I don’t have time to do it. However, yesterday I went to the robotics team and I enjoyed myself a lot, I’m very nervous because we have to travel to United States for the First Robotics Championships in Detroit! I hope we’ll do well. My hobbies are to read books, learn different dances and, these days, I’ve been watching anime, painting and it’s very relaxing!

Here are two videos of the Robotics competition and our robot!
