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.

Postgraduate studies

I want to do postgraduate studies, I love studying topics that I like and since I was little I have the idea of ​​continuing my studies to learn a lot. I would like to take courses to obtain an engineering degree (since as I wrote in my previous blog, it would allow me to earn a better salary), besides I want to deepen my majors to feel like a scholar. Other subjects that I would like to study are administration, management, maybe economics If I could, I would take part-time clases, this year I learned that distance courses are not my thing, also that I enjoy that time of travel to go somewhere and think about the topics that I will see (as long as you are not in a hurry or have evaluations) Many times my aunt has recommended that I do my postgraduate studies in France and i like the idea, but the biggests questions I have about the idea is where I will get the money to pay for the courses, maybe I will opt for scholarships and if I will have the time to study without stressing t...

Calculus

Honestly, of all the subjects we have this semester, the one I like the most is calculus. I am sure that most would not say that this is the subject they most enjoy studying, at first I did not like it either, but eventually I managed to love it, surely it is because it was in the first subject that I really felt that with each exercise I was moving forward a bit (and for that small feeling of happiness to finish an exercise and that is correct). Also that this subject serves as an introduction to learn to form more complex mathematical models (using derivatives and integrals, geometrical series or vectorial analysis for example) while forming a more methodical thought (although others find it boring). Until now and almost at the end of the semester we have seen functions and limits and how they are graphed in the Cartesian plane, and in classes we are always passing new content while trying to relate what is seen with the past subjects, although frankly I do not pay much attention...

Personal Opinions

What is your opinion about the legalization of guns? Regarding the legalization of weapons, I find that it is a very bad idea because many untrained people would have access to deadly equipment (because the control and supervision of sales would not be the most efficient), in addition, dangerous groups would have the ability to arm themselves en masse and completely take over sectors of the cities. Many people would buy weapons without knowing how to use them, which would be much more dangerous than not having them which would aggravate domestic accidents ... and not to mention the people who would use it against their family at the time of the arguments. What is your opinion about “barras bravas” (hooligans)? On the subject of hooligans I think it is one of the worst things that football has in general, they do not contribute at all, they only provoke disastrous and prevent families from going to stadiums safely. What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases? ...
