I had a good year!

Hi friends, today I want to tell you how this year has been for me, in academic and personal terms.
The truth is that I did not know how to start this post, because I have a lot to say, haha, but if I have to summarize how this year has been for me, I would say that he has been the best of all! And part of this was because I wanted to dedicate myself completely to my studies.
Last year I had a lot of stress because I worked as a teacher in a municipal school and also participated in an orchestra. It was the worst combination I could do while I was studying because it tired me so much. However, I feel happy and relieved. Feeling good about myself is the best of this year! This could be an excellent academic performance.
Another great thing about this year is that I was able to send me to do my instrument with a luthier, which makes me very motivated and happy. In general, I would say that everything worked well and I had no major complications. However there are attached things that have harmed me in one way or another. My dad lost his job, so the economy of my house has not been good.
To finish I can say that the biggest achievement of this year has been to consolidate my artistic career as a guitarist.

My biography

Hello friends! Today I will tell you about my life so you can learn about new things you didn't know about me.
I was born on August 9, 1995 in Santiago de Chile. I am originally from San Bernardo, although when I was younger I lived for a time in the commune of San Ramón in front of the population La Bandera. There, I remember, I lived the best childhood a child could have lived.
I studied in Ciudad de Lyon school from 1st to 8th basic. school where I was also a music teacher last year 2018.
I also studied at the Sergio Silva Bascuñán high school and am currently a student of the faculty of arts of the University of Chile in the bachelor's degree in arts with mention in classical guitar.
I have always lived with my parents whom I deeply admire because they are very hard-working and thanks to them today I am what I am. I also live with a 21 year old sister who studies dental technicians. She's very studious. I always see her reading and studying.
One of my favorite pastimes is to play online with my friends a game called Free Fire. Although there are times when I get quite stressed jaja. But in general I'm a born sportsman. I practice swimming, skateboarding and football.
One of my dreams is one day being a college professor and having a coffee shop.

when I was skateboarder

Skateboarding is one of the most beautiful sports I've ever practiced. I met him thanks to a neighbor friend of mine at the age of 11. Through this beautiful sport I was able to meet many friends, with whom we went to the biggest skatepark in Santiago, such as the Parque de los Reyes and Parque O'Higgins who were the best in Chile in those years (2009-2014). However my favorite place was the Busta flayte located on Colon Avenue in San Bernardo and the Busta Hechizo. These names derive from the classic Parque Bustamante that was the meeting place for all the first skaters in Santiago, so in honor of that park, it is led to put Busta to those neighborhood skatepark, and flayte by........ Well, draw your own conclusions.
I was 6 years skating constantly, and i was better on the street than on the ramp. My favorite trick was flip 360 because it looked beautiful from anywhere, and the other thing I loved was doing tricks on irons.
Currently I skate from time to time just to take the stress off me or to transport me, although there are still times when that teen spirit emerges in me for doing difficult and extreme things again.

The most interesting topic this semester

It's a bit complex to be able to determine what my favorite subject is this year, since I like them all. However, having thought for a moment, I managed to decide on one. History Seminar.
In classes the teacher exhibits on various cultural topics. We review how society has adapted to changes and how through these, music has been undergoing transformations. But the one that has marked me the most has been to discover where our knowledge and instrumental techniques come from. To this content my teacher named it as interpretive genealogy, which consisted of discovering where our technique came from and how that influenced music. All this was discovered when I saw who were my teacher's successors and his genealogical line, that is, my teacher's teacher and that teacher's teacher etc.
In terms of content we have observed: the evolution of music in Chilean society, the development of opera and theater,the emergence of radio communications and recordings, and interpretative differences over the same piece of music.
The truth is that I love history and the contents that we have seen because they have served me to learn and to be able to better understand my profession.

I live away from the city

On this occasion I want to talk about a subject that has caused me a lot of discomfort lately, and it is about the vehicle congestion that is lived in my city.
All those santiaguinos who live far from the center of Santiago, is a big problem on the issue of public transport due to the crowded number of people who take these means of locomotion, like the bus or the subway.
In my particular case, I live in a slightly remote commune, south of Santiago called San Bernardo and is about 28 kilometres away from the centre of the capital. It doesn't really seem to be that far, but it is! and unfortunately we have an important factor that plays us against the Sanbernardinos and it's the vehicular congestion that occurs on its streets and roads, which causes a tour that naturally should be 25 to 30 minutes, become a tremendous journey of almost 2 hours. This is very unfortunate for me and has afflicted me a lot this last time, as I feel that I am running out of time. It's horrible.
There is an important factor in this whole thing, and it is that people are bored of the lousy quality of service offered by Chilean public transport. That's why he decides to buy cars and so the streets collapse.

Luis Orlandini an expert in his field

The truth is that while thinking about who to speak today, only came to my mind the name of my dear Professor Luis Orlandini. He is a deep source of admiration not only for me, but for a whole generation of Chilean guitarists.
Luis Orlandini was born in Santiago of Chile. He studied at the Faculty of Arts at the Universidad de Chile with professor Ernesto Quezada and later on received scholarship by the German government to study with Eliot Fisk at the upper school of Music in Cologne, Germany. 
In 1989 wins first prize in the International Music competition in München, Germany. From that moment he has developed an international career acting in important concert halls of Berlin (Philharmonie), Colonia, Roma, Venecia, etc. 
He is currently Dean of the University of Chile
My teacher is one of the best guitarists in the world!
What I like about my teacher is that he is a good person, kind honest and very smart besides, he's a great musician and for me it's like a father.
