I love animals, playing with them or even learn whatever i could about them, so i always want to work with animals not necesary a vet, i remenber when a i was very  littles i wanted to be  police but not a ordinarian one, i wanto to be a policie on horceback and also have a police dog with me. Time pass and i start to interesting in documentaries and zoologys who travel around the world meeting different cultures and exploreing every part of the worl finding different kind of animals and i also saw the cartoon "the thornberrys" that was about a girld who can talk with animals and which parent make animals documentaries, so i always want to be one of them, a zoologys. that was when a was almost 8 or 9 year old and i still want to be that.

when i was in the secundary i started to like the acting and the idea to become an actor, expecially a voiceover actor, the one who translate the moving, tv series or cartoons to other language, so i can translate my favorite anime and be the voice of the character, and also i love acting, i have acted in a few plays and i really enjoyed, but my love with the animals won that dream but if a ever have the oportunity of translate the voices of everything i will do it.

In the future i want to travel and study exotic animals in australia so i could work in a animal wild reservation or in the "bush garden zoo" or any other important zoo or animals reserve, so i cant "safe" animals in dangered and the most importand of all, i could teach people about animals because i think if you know the animals you cant respect them and to not be afraid so you can not damage them. and you that reazon i decied to become i vet. 

Now i am in the university and it is all i ever dreamed, i am learning to much abaut animals and i like to meeting people who have the seme love of the animals i have, the test are a little dificuld but i am sure i am goig to pass them.

My music ! 

When people ask you for your favorite song, almost of the time we do not know what to answer. because we have a lot of favorite music and we can choose one.

I like very must the chilean music (funk, rock, indie, etc..) like "joe vasconcellos", "chancho en piedra", "gepe" and many others. But there is one chilean musician that i love, because the lyrics of his songs are so beautiful and make you think about thing of the life.

That is why choose the song of Nano Stern call......

                                     " Un gran regalo"

 

Nano sternI like this song because it remember me my last two years of school, in that time i make very very good friends that help me in very bad times. this song tell us that friends are a gif of life and  no matter if you feel like being in a hole, or bad times that you think there`s no solutions for them, there will be always a good friend behind you.  And life is beautiful. This song also was played at my graduation ceremony. 

the melody is also relaxing, i like to listen this song ( and many other but especially of Nano) in my room drinking a matte.

Here is this beautiful song.                              

                                 

I invite you to listen more song of Nano Stern like "la raiz", "el vino y el destino" or "la puta esperanza"

(i also like other kain of music like Rd Hot Chili Pepper, Rage Against the Machine, pearld jam, etc)

Tv shows

My favorite animal planet Tv show is "Too Cute" because it show us beautiful stories of puppies and different animals (especially dog and cats of different breed) and this programs also gives us information about the cubs while they grow up.
 
Another tv show it´s  "Pit Boss". it teach us that everyone has a second chance, shows us the other side of a breed considered dangerous and how they rescued them from being hurt

The "Sea Shepherd" are a conservation society and also a program in "Animal planet" they defend the whales from over-hunting by Japanese, but they aren´t pacifists, they will fight for the whales. i like so much this program because they defend what is right regardless of the consequences

My  perfect breed and tv shows!

Acording to Dog 101 my perfect beed is the Collie

Considered as the "boys scout"  of the dogs, Collies are from Scotland and were used as herding dogs. They

are characterized by having a very thick coat and a very long face.
This dog is must devoted and friendly ever, is perfect for familys with kids but they need to much exercise, least 1 time per day. His coat requires very careful, almost daily brushing as this dog has a very thick coat.
it´s a very intelligent and sweet dog, that make the collie very easy to train.
YOU WILL LOVE THIS DOG !

                          

Here it my collie, his name is William

 

Here i'm goimg to express my opinion about different thing:

Pearcings and tatoos !

I like pearcings and tatoos very much, because tatoos express waht you fell, an idea  or to show people something very important to you or happen to you, in my case are the animals and expecially my little dog who die a year ago, in memorie of that i would like a tatoo of five dog footprints back of the neck. And i think very people have tatoo for the same reason. In my opinion about pearcings, people have the natural tendency to make himselfs differents, to have something to make them especial, and be happy of their looks, it's same as the hair style.

Having exotic pets

In this topic i `m agree and not agree at the same time because it depend of what kind of animals do you have and also you have to be careful and responsable with theyand where do you buy the animal.  I disagree with people who have wild animals like monkeys or bigs cat, in that case i thing it`s complete wrong because the animals suffers and it could be dangerus for people.

Facebook

I think that facebook it is a good tool for communication and to finding people that you dont see for a long time ago or organize event, but it`s turn a bad thing when peolpe put their personal life on it. because it`s to dangerus that other peolpe that you dont know read about your personal stuff. Other people get very obsessed with this page and speend all day in the computer or in movil phone.

fast food restorants
fast food it´s a good idea for that time when you don´t have  much time to lunch! , but you should not get used to eat this type of food. i think this tye of food could be a little more healthy like more vegetables that you can cook more quickly or have a little warning of what you're eating.

Same sex Relationships
here i´m agree because the person that you love has to make you feel special no matters if it is a woman or a man. Each person is free to choose who they love
