My experience in Brighton:

The last year my father told me an option for me in the summer: go to other country (like USA, England, Canada...) for learn english. I was so nervous, because my dream was to go exchange to other country and stay there for 1 month or more. I accepted his option and we contacted an agency for help to us in the process. The first step was to choose the country and I chose England. The school that the agency gave to use has schools in London, Brighton, Cambridge and Canterbury. I thought a lot in what city and finally I chose Brighton. Brighton is a city in the south of England, near to London (1 hour by train) and is a city with a lot of young people and students.

I left Chile in January 5. My first flight was Santiago-Sao Paulo and then Sao Paulo-London. Unfortunately when I arrived London, my suitcase was in Sao Paulo! It was terrible for me. I only had a t-shirt in my bag and that's all. I took a coach form London to Brighton and I arrived at my new home: a house where the students of the school can live. My first day in the school, called Stafford House, was terrible! I was so nervous, because my english is bad-normal and the only way to communicate with the students and the teacher is... speaking english! It's difficult for me when I arrive a new place with people that I don't know of them. But, the things became better and I made a a lot of friends, classes are too different compared with Chile but are great and the city is beautiful and you can do a lot of things (alone or with your friends). I stayed 1 month in Brighton and I can say that now I have a better speaking of english, but I need to learn a lot of things.

With my friends I went to other cities like Cambridge, London, Bath, Oxford, Seven Sisters and more! Also every Wednesday and Friday we went to "Cocoloco": a disco near to the beach. We did parties in the student house, we went to the mall to have a lunch or dinner or shopping and other activities whit the school. I made friends form Brazil, Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Turkey,  Italy, France, Colombia and more... I remember with great affection every moment that I lived in Brighton and I miss so much my friends, it was an incredible experience for me and I'm grateful with my parents for gave my that option.

My future job In 2017 my dream was to work in a school, with tennegers ann teach chemistry or sciences in general or in a "pre universitario". Now, my project is different. In the first semester of this year, in the subject  of  "the pharmacist and his action" I learned a lot of things of my career and my possibilities in my future job. The pharmacists can work in industries, laboratories, hospitals, clinics, in a pharmacy, in officines, in the government, with the PDI and more. Now, I imagine myself working in a hospital, in the first attention or in a Clinic. The first attention consist in help people with their medicines, for example with the time when they must take them, with what can of liquid you can take a pill, the dose, recommendations and alternative methods for get better. Also, I would like to work in an hospital or clinic,for example in the pharmaceutical arsenal or in the laboratorios. The pharmaceutical arsenal is a room with the medicines that

My last blog... until now Well maybe it's the last blog that I'm going to write this semester, but I want to say that I have had a great time writing almost every week. Usually, I never write about subjects that I'm interested like my pets, my mobile, my career or technology. I think that is well for the people that want to get better in a language (in this case, English) write blogs and read others, because you can find new words, new ideas and sentences, also you can get information that before you don't know and you practice your writing and reading. In my case, I think now I'm better in my writing and in the capacity to explain ideas and write about them. In school, I had a blog but in Spanish, so this is my first time with a blog in English. Thinking about the future maybe is a great idea to keep the system of blogs, because works well: you read the blog of the teacher, leave a comment, redact your own blog, read the blog of your classmates and leave a

My favourite movie is... I'm a person who doesn't like too much to read books or see films. I get bored when I read a book for more than 1 hour and the same happens when I saw a film (sometimes), I prefer to do more things haha. I only see the most iconics films, but not the less popular films. The most part of the books that I read in my life was the books that the school give to the students for read. By the way, I can say that my favourite film is Rogue One (I'm a very fan of Star Wars). The story happens between the film III and the episode IV. I very like that film because the characters have a good personality and the story is so interesting for the people that follow the saga. The planets, the weapons, the space battle out Scarif, the appearance of Darth Vader (a brutal scene) and the end of the film connects so well the initiation of the episode IV, it's amazing!!. Also, the music in the film is incredible. Sometimes I search the songs in Spotify and I liste
