My future job (again).

Image
I'll talk about my future job in this post, and not the job from the career that I study. An "What it if"... but with a job. A dream job (?) (Like in an Elseworld, maybe?). If I had never studied this major (Pharmaceutical Chemistry), maybe I would be study Medicine. In fact, I studied Nursing in the past because I thought that was a career similar to medicine (They are very different, totally different. But because of this I realised that Pharmaceutical Chemistry's my thing). Well, If I had studied Medicine, I would have liked job in a Public Hospital, first how a simple surgeon attending people in primary health. Maybe I would have studied an speciality in gastroenterology, or maybe not. But It would have been great to be in Doctors Without Borders (MSF). But the most acurate to me is, that I would want a job in the south of Chile, in a little town, taking care of the health of the villagers. Doing my best. With a beautiful scenery. Because I like the cold we...

A very new sensing measurements. (From nano world).

Image
In the picture, using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). Cobalt stannate (CTO) and Carbon Nanotubes (CNT). Hi everyone. This time is the turn to talk about an interesting topic: Nano and Micro world. The first thing it comes in my mind about this is "microbiology", since I had the subject of Microbiology in the university, even I had the subject of Hystology. But, I want to talk about something different, more related to my major. In the last semester, I was internalized in one of the researches of one teacher of my facultity, Soledad Bollo, about nanotubes composites. Her research is focused in develop these nanotubes with the future objetive of detection of hydrogen peroxide. The H2O2 in the human body may indicate the presence of certain diseases, so, it's important to find an appropriate method to detect it. Nowadays, there are many detection methods but they are not much effective. Like the enzime method, but this method suffer of instability and have a major...

Pets!! 😍

Image
I really love animals (even more than humans), so, I really love pets. I think everybody should have any pet, because they are like angels with hair (?). I'm no kidding. Since my childhood I was a catlover, because in my house we had cats. In one moment, even we had 6 cats in the house (counting the kittens). My first pet, was a cat, called " Ese ". Was named like this because my parents asked me for give one name, and I said "Ese" (I have 5 years old, maybe?). It's very funny remember that. When "Ese" left the house (things of cats, they fight a lot for their territory and they go behind cats), we adopt to " Peluso ", and when he left, we adopt to Peluso's niece, Pelusa . And when Pelusa had his first litter, there was a very fluffy and large-headed cat that we stayed, and we named it " Peluso II ". Even later, we had a cat named " Peluso III ", he was my last cat, and when we moved to an apartment, we had to ...

A good Holiday?

Image
I wanted to avoid this topic, because I haven't a "best" holiday. Because in my holidays usually don't go out, and spend my time in my house doing any things. So, I think I'll improvise. Let's do it... A long time ago, when I was a child, I spend one holiday in Viña del Mar. I went this place with my parents, father and mother, we stayed in the house of one of the sisters of the husband of my aunt. The house was a few streets away from the beach. It was very nice. I don't remember well how long it was our stay in Viña del Mar, but I presume it was more or less two weeks. We went all the touristic places, guided by our relatives that live there. The Flower Clock, Valparaíso Sporting Club, The Botanic Garden, Quinta Vergara Park, Sausalito Lagoon, and more... Even in the Casino of Viña del Mar there was a event, and my father pretended to be a press cameraman (had a very large professional camera) and took photos of celebrities. Was very funny.  ...

Japan: A country I would like to visit

Image
Hello everybody. A new term, A new post. This post will be about travel. Most exactly about a country I would like to visit. About it, the first word that comes to my mind is "Japan". Because since my childhood I was really interested in the Japanese culture. And I was really influenced by anime. I would say, that visit Japan is a childhood dream. And, what do I know about Japan is basically the things that they show in anime and manga: Is a island in East Asia in the Pacific Ocean, literally at the other end of the world. The most important cities are located in the main island called Honshu. In the north island called Hokkaido it's very cold weather. And other famous island that is very small, called Okinawa, the Japanese people talk about this island almost like a tropical island, with hot weather. I would like to check these things. The Idiom that they talk is Japanese, that is like Chinese, with similar word characters, called Kanji, but with other 2 alphabets ca...

My blogging Experience

Image
Hello everyone. This will be the last post in this blog, because the course is running out. 😢 And I would like to reflect on that I have learned doing this blog. This has been the first time I write a blog in English, previously I had a blog in Spanish, but I left it. In general, write this blog has been an enriching and fun experience. And a true odyssey. Because English isn't my first language, and although in the school I had English as a course, sincerely I didn't learn much. But, this blog helped me to improve my English. For example, before I didn't have the courage to write a single word in English. And now I'm writing many (although I think the most of them are broken English). But, is something. I became familiar writing English and I learned a lot of new words. But the most important, I learned a bit to connect well the phrases. Although it still reads weird... About of the content, some topics were good, like these about the best c...

Manga Editing

Image
It's interesting, because until this post I didn't noticed that I'm a very normal person. In my life I've learned normal things, like play guitar, riding a bicycle, paint in oil, play chess, did computer maintenance, and other things that are very common. In the other hand are things that are interesting and I've learned, but little by little I've forgotten. Like play Go, play pan flute or Aikido. Well, one thing that I haven't forgotten and is a little different, is that this post will be about. In one moment of my life I was so grateful to the people that translate manga to Spanish, because I really like read manga (Japanese comic's), for me is like read books. Well, for this and to help those people which translate, I learned to edit manga. How I do this? First, in the page, I have to clean/take off the words and onomatopoeias in other languages (Japanese, Korean, English), control the levels of black and white, and to rebuild the drawing if...
