Tansantiago or the yellow buses?

The public transport that I use often is Transantiago and the subway.
It takes me two hours to arrive at the University because I live really far from there.
I think transantiago have good and bad points, but we got used to that way to travel in Santiago city.
The good things are: Is easier to pay because the BIP card. Another good thing is that the Price of the fare doesn’t change if we go from a transantiago to another bus or to the subway before two hours from the first pay.
The bad things are: There are too many people who take the public transport, but there aren’t enough buses for everyone. There aren’t enough trains either in the subway, so the people who take it suffering in the pick hours because everybody are really cramped to each other. Another bad point is that sometimes the bus doesn’t come, and the people must wait for a long time and there’s no chance to take another alternative.
The old public transports haven’t anything to envy to Transantiago because it doesn’t work perfectly, just like before.
The old public transport use to be the ‘yellow buses’. They were really ugly and dirty, but it had good thing too, for example: We could travel from one commune to another one without moving from a bus to another.

My beloved Japan! <3

The country that I always dream to visit someday and live for a while is Japan.
Japan is an amazing country in many aspects. First, it’s very safe and it has very clean public places. Second, the people respect each other very much and they are extremely organized in everything.
The Japanese schools have remarkable results in children education level and in the elementary, secondary and university levels, they have very well structured programs making a very intelligent use of way, time and space.
The career of pedagogy is highly respected in Japan because the people know how the teachers do their utmost effort to educate their children. That is the most important reason why I think I would be really happy living there. I love my profession, but sometimes I think in Chile it doesn’t have the respect, consideration and status that the profession deserves.
I think I would be very happy living in a country that I love and in which, I’d be able to find a good job, where I’ll make what I love more: teach children.
I know it’s almost an impossible dream, but a person without dreams is a person without life in some way. So, I’ll work as hard as I can to continue learning the Japanese language, while I save money to make my dream true: travel to “The rising sun land” someday.

What about last semester?

My last semester experience was very interesting and I enjoyed very much every part of it. There was good and bad point, but I think every experience makes me grow and learn a little more, so I count it like good things anyway.

One of the best memories that I had are the subjects, because I enjoyed a lot almost everyone. My favorite one was math, why? Well, in my school time I didn’t like maths at all, because it was very difficult for me to understand it and I never knew the reason why it happened to me. If somebody had told me that my favorite university subject would be maths, I would have replied that it was impossible.

Now, in my fourth university year, I can say that my favorite matter is math indeed. In this subject I learned many important things that I had never understood in high school because the teaching of it wasn’t good enough for my needs. And that’s very important for me because I must teach this subject to children and I must be self-confident in order to transmit my interest on this subject to my little students and make them love it as I’m doing now and to help them not to fear maths. Discover my love for math was a new feeling that makes me feel good and more security about my knowledge.

I think everything was positive and I’m really thankful and happy because I had good scores in everything and I hope that for this semester too.
