Money


Hello! Today I’m going to talk about money…


Well, in Chile like in everywhere, the money has a special issue, especially in the times we are now, where the economic crisis or the economic laws are not always by our side. Also, Chile is a small country that depends of its relations with other countries, like with EE.UU that is one of the greatest buyers of our copper and of others natural resources.


But, the thing is, that the money is not such a thing that is in the macro-economy, because it also is in our daily lives. When I was a kid, I usually borrow money to my mom to buy a candy or something like that, but in some situations there was no money, so I didn’t buy anything. Like I could, the money is our lives even if we wanted that not be, because when you are in a society necessary you have to respect the conditions which the society is conformed.


I don’t know if the we could call the money like a bad thing, because I think that the people are who gives to much importance to the money, it’s not that the money by its own could be something bad.


I don’t usually borrow money to the people, because I feel bad when I have to ask for it, but I don’t have any problem if people ask me for money, because I trust that in some moment they’ll pay me back, and even if they take a time to pay me is not something so seriously.


At the time I use a bank sometimes, but it’s not that I have a treatment with the bank. For example, the university gives me checks because a have a scholarship. By other hand, I use a credit card, but it is not mine, it’s an extension from another account. The times I have gone to the bank it has not been a bad experience, except for an occasion when the bank system came down and a lot of people couldn’t ask for them money, but fortunately I could ask for my money, because it was not a great amount of money.


Well, that’s all for today, see you soon!

My faculty


Hello, this week I’ll write about suggestions for my faculty. Personally, I don’t know much about my faculty facts, but I’ll write about things I think could be interesting for this topic.

Well, in my faculty there are not many problems about the infrastructure, but for the next year we will need more rooms for the classes. In winter, when it starts to rain, the “hall” of the faculty has fissures where the water came down, but is not something worry. Another problem is about the “patch solution” that the faculty give us when we make a petition, like the one made it when we ask for more study room, and they make that in the casino would be Wi-Fi to work or study, but that is not a solution, just it’s a patch that covers the real problem, that is that we need real places for study. Another problem is that in the library, sometimes we need to study talking each other, but it can upset to the people who are reading in silence.

The others problems are relational with the organization of the different departments of the faculty, each department has problems about the projects that they want to do, and more conflictive is what we ask and not always the listen to us or give us something clearly about what they are going to do.

I think we need more instance where the professors, the dean and the classmates could talk about the real problems we are dealing with. Little by little we could make arrangements that could make happy to both sides of the conflict.

The benefits and the consequences would be that we talk with all the people related with the problem and not with sub-delegates, we could have a better communication and the problems could be solved more suitable.

That’s all for today, see you soon!
