TRANSANTIAGO > BEFORE AND AFTER

I didn’t like the pre-Transantiago system, actually, I hated it. The buses was very old, noisy and not reliable. Nonetheless, I don’t like the new system, the truth is I hate the public transport in general. Although I think Transantigo has better buses that the older system, but at the beginning the implementation of Transantiago was terrible, because the buses were crowded all the time, and because of this the buses didn’t stop in the bus stop. For me that was the worst episode in the history of public transport. In that time it took me two or half and hour went to the university from my house. Now the same journey takes just one hour or 45 minutes.
Now I prefer the Transantiago system than the pre-Transantiago, because now the buses are new, more comfortable, safe and the drivers are friendlier. Before the buses were awful, very old, sometime they were break and the drivers competed against each others.
I prefer the actual system and I think it has improved since the beginning of the implementation. Although I think the system could be better than now. Like:
· In the peak hour is necessary to put more buses.
· The buses sometimes pass all together and after the people have to wait a lot of time to take the other bus. For this is necessary to have a horary for the bus in each bus stop.
· Is necessary make again some routes.

A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

I would like to go to Mexico, because I think this country has a lot of interesting places. In this country I would like to visit the Mayan pyramids and the beautiful beaches like Ribera Maya, Playa Del Carmen and Cancun. Since I was a kid I have loved the beach and they are the gorgeous, on the other hand, Mayan Pyramids are a culture legacy, for example Chichen Itza is a large pre-Columbian archaeological site built by the Maya civilization located in the northern center of the Yucatán Peninsula, the site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, from what is called “Mexicanized” and reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico to the Puuc style found among the Puuc Maya of the northern lowlands.
In Mexico I would do different things depending on the place, for example at the beach I mentioned before, you can swim with dolphins, do snorkeling, diving and other water sports. I really like do these things but on the other hand I must know about the Mayan and Aztecs remains.
About these places I only know what my mom and grandparents told to me and the things I read about Mayan culture. I’m really interested in big civilization of America like Incas, Aztecs and Mayas. In my last summer holidays I visited Machu picchu, so I need to know the two latter.
For me Mexico is for fun, I don’t want to study, work or live there, in these aspects I have other plans. Most probably I will go to study to Europe or USA, and then come back to Chile to work.

First term 2009

The first term in general was good in all senses of my life. At the beginning I had enough time for my boyfriend, friends and family. But, at the end of the semester I was under stress, because there were a lot of challenges I had to face in different courses and in order to achieve that, I needed to make a bigger effort and be more constant. For that I didn't have enough time, so I started to stay less time with my boyfriend and friends. However, it was worth doing that, because I succeeded all my exams.
The only problem I had was with the course called: physical training, because I really hated running in the around the court and grass, finally my friend and I ended up failing the course. But for us it was really fun. However, I love doing sports like yoga, pilates, aerobics, roller-skating, dancing, swimming and spinning.
The first term was my first year in the specialty, and I learned about many interest things in the different courses related with physical anthropology. For example I learned how to estimate sex and age in skeletal remains.
In the others aspects of my life everything was great, in holidays I went to Peru, and it was amazing. I spent a lot of night hang(ing) out with my friends.
For all those things now I think that the last semester was very good, even if I had less time for me in the last period, but I reached my goals.
