Stress is...


Hi there! How are you? I'm a bit late with my blogs, so now I'm going to do my 4th post and it will be about stress.
Well, nowdays it's very normal to see stress people, more now that we are ending the year and everything must be done.
Stress come when people have a lot of thing to do and not enought time, so people start with some common symptoms that usually are tiredness, people unable to concentrate or think clearly and irritability.
A good way to don't be stress is do some sport, or take a time during the day to relax and distract the mind about job or studies...
When people are stress usually they don't perform at work in a good way, because they are not a hundred percent concentrated, because they are thinking all the time in what they must do, that they don't have enought time, that they won't be able to do all work, so they finally work in a bad way.
Sometimes stressed people can take some days off with the family, like a "mini-holidays" so they can be relaxed for a while and enjoy time with the family, or just lay on the grass o the beach and enjoy to be in a place that is not the rutine place. Because I think that rutine is a very important fact to be stress, so everything that can take out of the rutine is a very possitiva way to stop stress.


So take a time and enjoy life!

A healthy lifstyle


Hello classmates, it's been a long time since my last post, and many things have ocurred. Today I'm going to talk about how to have a healthy lifestyle, and if it is posible.

Nowdays it's very dificult to have a healthy life, because there is fast food everywhere, people is every day more and more sedentary and the air is getting worst everyday with pollution.
However, there are many thing that people can do trying to fight these bad habits. First of all, sport is the most important because it prevents many diseases such as obesity, high cholesterol, and it keeps your brain and your heart working perfect.
Also, sport must be complement with a healthy and balanced diet, for example, people must have milk three times per day, eat 4 or 5 fruits/vegetables, have legumes at least 2 times per week, and drink a lot of water.

A good moment to get away of all these bad habits is on holidays por example, because is the best chance to go to places with a better air to breath, with less pollution. And a perfect moment to run in the mornings, in the beach for example. Vacations are also a good moment to use more suitable clothes, and no the one that people must use to go to work, or to go to the school... this thing that I've just mention, are some thing that can get us out of the rutine, and help us to have a better lifestyle.

So, try to do your best before the summer arrives! ... for a summer without a shirt!
Enjoy. and smiles at life!

Places I like...

Hello Classmates, I'm a little bit late, but like some people say, it's better late than never. It's been a rare week, but it has came to the end and now I'm on holidays!!! It's so cool, now I will wake up late and rest a little bit from the university.

So well, I've been thinking a lot on which is my favourite get-away, but I'm not sure.
I like a lot Viña del Mar, a beach on the Fifth region of Chile. I've been there a lot of times with my friends and it's not really a place to rest, because we always go and have a lot of partys, although we make our time to talk, walk in the beach, cook, and sleep.

A place where I like to rest is in my own room. There I have everything I need, everything I want, It's the place that makes me confortable and where nobody can bother me. So when I want to think, rest, work, or everything I want, I stay on my room and I start listening to some music.

However I like to be in my room, I like the south of Chile too, I've been there a few times, and it's really beautiful, specially the places for camping. It's feel really good to be in touch with the nature and do thing that I usually don't do in Santiago, so if you have the posibility, go south and enjoy the landscape.

Hope you enjoy the post!
See you soon

Music!

Hello classmates, so long that I haven't been here! I was on holidays and I really enjoyed them in the beach with my friends!

But now, that we've come to the reality, I'm going to talk you about music and what kind of music I like and when I listen to it.

Well, I don't really have a favourite kind of music, I listen every kind of music, but I prefer music like reggae, or dancehall, althought I like a lot romantic music too. When I was a child I really loved Alejandro Sanz, I went to a concert of him and I was really crazy; nowdays I like him, but I prefer his old songs.

I like to listening to music while I'm writing, or when I'm cleaning, or having lunch, but never when I0m studying because I can't focus on what I'm reading or learning.
I really like to listen to music because it brings me good memories. For example some music makes me remember about my boyfriend, others makes me remember about my friends or family; so many good times that I enjoy listening to music.

I usually get my music from the internet with a program called "Ares" so I played my music in my computer, because I don't like to record it on CD's
So, as I told you before I don't have a favourite kind of music, but I like some groups or singers such as "Cultura Profetica", "Bob Marley" "Jason Mraz" "Alejandro Sanz" "Ricardo Arjona"

So, what kind of music do you like?

Have a nice weekend!

My Experience in English Class

Hello classmates.

Today I'll write my last post! And that is because today is the last day that we will be in the computer lab, so I'll tell you something about my experience in this english class and how I have felt in this subject.

At the beginning I thought that this class will be useful because for a long time that I had not practiced English, so I was excited that I could resume my practice in english.

As time passed, I realized that this english class was not as I thought. First that we have to travel from our university that is in Independencia to this other faculty that is in Quinta Normal.
Also, I do not agree with the rules that are in this department, so really I haven't had a good experience with this class and the way that it is being carried out.

All though, this "posting class" I think is very useful because it has help me to improve my writing, and to have a better flow.

I think that next semester, listing lesson shoud improve, because we have some quiz listening, but we have no way to practice it, so I think it will help a lot.


Bye classmates!

I hope you have enjoyed with this blog, I don't think I'll write again!
Or maybe next semester! No one knows!

See you

My Ideal Work is....


Hello Classmates!
It's not a very good day for me... but I hope it will get better.

Today I'll speak you about my ideal work, on how I look my self in the future.

In this short time that I've been studying physical therapy, I have seen different areas in wich I could work in the future, of all of them, I've liked in specially two of them.

The one that i like the most is Neurologycal Physical Therapy. It have a great field and the ones that specializes in this area works with people that have had brain accidents, so they have lost some motor functions, or with peoplea with some degenerative problems as Parkinson, or tumor in the spinal cord or in the same brain. So the Physical Therapist are in charge on bringing them a normal life.

The other area that I like is "Traumatology", it is in charge on healing problems related with bones, so if you have a sprain or you broke a part of your body, you must go to the physical therapist, so you can recover your function on a hundred percent.
All though, I'm just in first year, many thing can happen until I Finish studying, so nobody knows.

I can tell you that I'm very happy studying physical therapy, it is really the career that I love, everything on it is perfect, the relation with the patients, the gratification you feel when you heal them, everything is beautiful. It is really the work that I want in a future, I hope, not to far away.

Hope you like your career as much as I do.

See you next week!

Health prevention.


Hello classmates, I hope you liked my last posting.


Today I'm going to talk about health prevention and how can I, a student of physical therapy, contribute in teaching people some things that they can prevent some accidents.




First of all, people must have a balanced diet so that, they can be strong enought to stand in a better way the supposed accident that they can have. This is a prevention that is general of health's area.




Now, in relation to my field, which is Physical Therapy, that is very close to the sport area, it is very common to have some traumatisms like: tore of muscles, or sprains of finger or ankle, or another part of the body, so it is very important that the man or the woman that will practice any sport, has to do some warming-up exercises, so that the muscles don't start doing hard work without a previous or light warm up.

In addition to this, doing sport is very good for health, because it helps you being active and with energy. Sport also helps you because when you do sport, in general you don't get sick so often, so it's helps you to being healthy.


As I'm a student, I don't have too much information, but with the knowledge that I have, I could teach some people that don't have any knowledge about how to keep a healthy life, so that I can contribute with the social service, which is very important at the moment of studying a career related to health.



So, see you next week!
