Photography

I do not usually appreciate the photographs I see on the internet. Despite spending most of the day observing photographs on social networks or media. I rarely stay to think about what they show in them, but this photography of a power plant in Charleroi, Belgium really call my attention.

Originally build in 1921, it was one of the largest coal burning power plants in this country, but for the large amount of dioxide emissions was closed in 2007.


I like this photography because it shows how nature finally imposes itself on human construction, it also talks about another time, about how people produced energy in another way and how many modern buildings, such as shopping centers, modern power plants or departmental buildings will end in the same way.


The photography was taken in 2015 (I could not find the name of the person who took the picture) and appears in several photographic collections on urban exploration and buildings of the last century.

Changes to my study program

Many times in college I would think or mention things about the subject when talking to my friends, but with the online semesters those ideas had disappeared, but here we go… I think that the curriculum, the workload and the duration of the studies is well distributed at the semester level, with a period of "recess" before the final exams and a good number of evaluations in each subject. In the same way, I think the teaching methods are quite good, but I would change some teachers, since although it has been repeatedly said that they do not get along with the students, they change their places or simply leave them without solving the issue of the problem and does not give a good environment to attend class or study. About the faculty infrastructure, they could put more places to eat, preferably enabled for cool days, eating outside at the tables is nice, but when it rains and there is wind a simple awning does not help much. Another change they could make is to fix the ...

Blogging Experience

I never thought I would write a blog, but now I write the tenth post. At first, I was not very interested in the idea of publishing these texts, but I must admit that it is much more fun to do this than to read a sheet with incomplete sentences in English. About my writing skills, I do not know if they improved a lot, I say, I still consider myself a fool for English and I already knew how to write relatively coherent texts, but I learned some things that I'm sure I would not have learned from "the traditional way". Without a doubt, one of the best things about this was being able to read the publications of others, whether they were true or false what they wrote, I was struck by each of their posts. Now I can not think of what topics could be written in the future, maybe food... or hobbies. Another aspect about which I had not thought about blogs is the responsibility that is given to the student to write weekly, which is better demonstrated than just completing ...

My future Job

Personally, I have always wanted to work in a laboratory, I still don't know which major to choose, so the focus area of ​​that laboratory is still not clear to me, maybe it's from construction sample analysis, in the future I may live in the north and be related to soil samples or mining, or even go abroad and work in some advanced synthesis laboratory. Being a laboratory it should be indoor. I would also like to participate in many meetings and travel for my work, and not only present reports and papers. Regarding salary, I know that at the beginning it won't be much, so I hope to get a scholarship to continue studying, it may be to get an engineering degree, which improves the salary a lot. I imagine that I will start as a research assistant or maybe in some small sample laboratory, and in time I will find a place that fits me, I do not plan to stay in the same job for long (as long as that idea is possible). What I most want is to find a place where I feel comfort...
