My favorite TV show

The Walking Dead <3!

Despite of what a lot of people have said that is super overrated, one of my favorite series of all times is “The Walking Dead”. The series is based on the comic writing by Robert Kirkman. It started in 2010 and continues until today, with 8 seasons.  I started to watch it in 2012 with my brother and even today, in 2017, we are waiting for the next season.

The Walking Dead is about a post-apocalyptic world, were zombies have invaded our planet. The series tells the story of Rick Grimes and his effort to survive with his family and friends. The entire story happens in United States.

The characters are variable; I mean as the time passed by, a lot of them leave the group, die, or new characters appear and join the group. From the first season a few of them are still alive, and I have to confess this; I have cried a lot of times with my brother because of the death of some characters that we love and died surprisingly.

I have two favorite characters: Glenn Rhee and Daryl Dixon, I’m in love with those guys.  One of them (SPOILER ALERT!) died the last season. His death was the most painful in all the seasons I have watched, I was really surprised and until today I can’t get over it. (I don’t want to say the name in case that you want to see the series).

Maybe it is a bit masochistic, but I believe that was my favorite chapter. I think it is, because it was the one that made me feel a lot of emotions. We knew that somebody was going to die, because the final chapter of the season before the death finalizes telling us that. So we had to wait for months to know who was the chosen one, and that made that my soul hangs by a thread for a long time.

Finally, I like to watch this series, because it is something that I share with my brother a long time ago, and I love to spend time with him. And also that I’m engaged with the characters and I have to know what is going to happen to them. 

Postgraduate Studies

If I think about postgraduates studies, I am not sure about what I want to do with that. I do not even know if I want to keep studying after finishing this career.

 But if I have to choose something to study after this career, I will choose something related to clinical psychologist or legal psychologist. If I choose the first one, I would like to do a course on clinical psychoanalysis with adults. I will choose this, because when I searched the courses that you can do after finishing the psychology career, it was the one that caught my attention, because I would like to work with adults and help them with their problems. I think most of the adults have lost the taste for the life; they are exhausted of the routine in their lives, so they get sick. Also I don´t really want to work with children, so adults are perfect to me.

I would like to study somewhere far from Chile. I have not thought about a particular place, but maybe United States, Spain, England or South Korea. Those countries caught my attention a lot, and even if I don´t study there I would visit them at least once in my life.

If I study this clinical course, I would like to do it in a regular learning way, because I don´t like the distance way. 

My Future Job

I am not 100% sure about the job I would like to have yet, but for now I have thought two options. The first one is work as a clinical psychologist, because one of the things that motivate me to study psychology was that I really want to help people to resolve their problems, make them feel better and listen to them.  

The second option that I have is work as a legal psychologist. I think it would be pretty awesome to get involved in all the law stuff, work with lawyers, investigate the psychologist profile of the suspects and help with the cases. Also I have thought to enter to the PDI, and work as a detective and as a psychologist.  I think I see myself in some years like a character of this typical crime series, like Bones, Criminal Minds and CSI, or maybe working as a psychologist in the program “Caso Cerrado” with Doctor Polo haha.

In both cases I would like to travel to the south of Chile and work and live there. I don’t think that I would travel a lot working as a psychologist, because I believe is a job that needs you to stay in one place. I mean, I can’t travel to another city or country and leave my patients or the case unsolved there.

Election Day

I think it is very important to vote, because it´s a right and a duty that all the citizens have.  That is why I want to vote in the elections of this year. I am excited in some way because it is going to be my first time voting in presidential elections.

My opinion about the electoral campaigns is that they are necessary in all the processes of the elections, because they are a way to inform people about the candidates and the things that they are proposing.

The qualities that a person should have to run for public positions are in general: social leadership, confidence, empathy with the people, altruism, reliable and having interpersonal relationship skills.

I have never considered to get involved in politics, because I don´t really like the political world. For me it is boring and I don´t really see myself in some years working in something like that. That doesn´t mean that I believe that it is not important to be informed about all this, on the contrary, I think it is very important, and I even think it is a duty that we all have.

About the electoral campaigns in my district, I don´t have a lot to say, because I am not really informed about it. I don´t think it is fine, so I want to change that and learn more about this stuff.
