I would like to visit Korea

A country that I really would like to go is Korea. Why Korea? Because is the country where my favourite martial art comes to. I mentioned in the previous post that I have been practising Taekwondo about 4 years. This martial art, and today sport, really change my life and open a new world of culture to me. In Asia the "arts" has a background very strong related to Buddhist philosophy where all that you do has a significant and the art that you choose lead you for the way of life. It's a little hard to explain ha-ha. In this way the Asian culture captivated me and I really want to go there. Korea is located in east Asia and is divided in two different countries, North Korea (officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea) occupying the northern half of the Korean Peninsula and South Korea (officially the Republic of Korea) occupying the southern half. This two "Koreas" was one country until 1945. Its neighbour countries are China to the west and Japan to the east. I would like to go to South Korea because is the country where my martial art becomes a modern and well-known sport and is a developed nation. I wish to travel for historic places, old Buddhist temples, beautiful gardens and parks, see a exhibition taekwondo team and study their habit and way of life. I hope to know Asia and South Korea some day.

Last Term

The last term was very important for me because was the last semester of my degree course. I had hardly any time to make anything different to study, make works and presentations. The good part was that I learned a lot of things especially in the course "Internado" where the student have real contact with patients and practice the knowledge acquired in the previous courses. This course has three blocks, which are small animals, ruminants and equine medicine. My favourite was equine medicine and the course allowed me to know my actual thesis guide professor, Dr. Godoy. Another important item of the course was the shifts that the student had to do. We had two options, do shifts in the small animal hospital or in the equine clinic hospital. I did shifts in equine area which had duration of 24 hours and it begins at 1 pm.

I practice Taekwondo, a Korean martial art, since 4 years ago, but last term I couldn't practice because I didn't have time. Then my life was study, make works and make practice sessions. My girlfriend suffered too my situation but always I made me time to see her. Fortunately everything was great and I could graduate.

Transantiago

I think that the new system of public transport call Transantiago is better than the old system because the pay way allow that the bus drivers do their job more concentrate and they don't manipulate money so they don't be mugging. Before this occurred very often. The problem with this is that many people don't pay the fare and the financing is in negative situation. Maybe the routes before was more complete and covered better the different areas of Santiago. The new buses are better than the old ones but not sufficiently because their are delicate and break easy with the use and the horrible streets of our city. My experience with the new system is good because I pay the student fare and before the bus drivers sometimes maltreated me, now I pay with my student pass and the bus drivers are more kind. Thanks to change system, I pay only one time the fare and I combine the buses, the underground to arrive to the faculty for example. Since Transantiago began has improved their operation, the frequency of the routes but the buses now are very damage and many people continue does't pay. I would like to make a change to achieve that the 100% of the users pay their fare, in this way the system could improve but I don`t know how make it.

Introduction

Well I am back to my blog created 3 years ago when I was in 3th grade. Now I'm a graduate student of our faculty and I’m looking for a thesis in horses, the area that I like. In the university I have learned many things about veterinary and also about english, because I took 4 semesters between 2sd and 3th grade. It`s allowed me to read papers and translate texts to my works. Now I want to improve my speaking during this year and also practice my text redaction in this blog.
