My favourite pieces of technology

Well, to be honest, I didn't like the smartphone in the past years because my friends were writing or reading or listening to music every moment and in this situations i felt so uncomfortable for the relationship. Actually, I use two devices to call: the iPhone and the old cellphone.

During 2014 my best friend made me a present, the iPhone 4. She knew my situation that I didn't like this objects, but, with this smartphone, I could have Whatsapp and talk with my friends, family and other persons.

From 2015 I use all the day when I stay outside my house my smartphone because I read news, messages from Whatsapp, e-mails from university and work. But in the night I don´t use it because it doesn't let me  sleep and dream.

I like this piece of technology because I can be alert to news, breaking news or messages from family, work or friends.

I must say this, I would love to be without it. For this situation, I use my old cellphone, it´s just call, send messages and have alarm, and the iPhone I use when I go to the university, but in my house I avoid this piece of technology.

Why did I choose this career?

Well, honestly, I cannot say that journalism was in my real options to study when I was studying in high school. I never thought that journalism would be my future work.

First, in high school I believed that Social Work should be my future decision like an university student. But, in the 2014, the score in the PSU made me change the option and choose Public Administration, basically because my sister in law and other friends from the Partido Socialista, study this career. So, I said, it´s my opportunity, I can study with mi political friends and my family If I need help in the courses.

In my first opportunity talking like panelist in the program "U-Report" of Unicef and Injuv Chile

So, I studied Public Administration all the year 2014 and in October, I ´did not like this career, and I search other programs to study and one that I really liked. The choice was between history or journalism, but the program to be a journalist made me in love with this work.

Today, I can say that I love journalism, in this space I can write, read and see a lot things about the topics that I like. An example, is the politics, the public education, the health, the horrible inequality in Chile and in the world and other topics that interest me.
