Changes to my Study programme

So far, all the subjects that I've had in my career have been very interesting to me and my training as a psychologist, or at least I think so. I like how the subjects connect with each other and have something in common. I feel like I'm climbing a ladder where at each step I learn something new. 

However, there are these co-curricular activities that include sports and other courses. I find these extra activities very interesting because they are so variable, but the university forces us to take so many as a requirement. For me, this puts extra pressure on my studies. 

In terms of workload and lenght of studies I think college is taking up all spheres of my life. There are so many pdf's to read each week and it's impossible to keep up and read them all for each classes. I know I'm in college and maybe this kind of things are frequent, but I also have a life, I'm not a student all the time. This also includes teaching methods, because I feel that sometimes reading a bunch of papers and then going to class doesn't work. New, more didactic methods need to be adapted.



Talking about the infrastructure reminds me of my first day, when I met the faculty of Social Sciences. The first impression I had (and I'm not gonna lie) was the place was very ugly, besides the classrooms there were small and we were often overcrowded. In the summer it was an ordeal. But then, I got to know the other classrooms and my impression of the campus improved, because they had a better infrastructure and were more spacious.

    I agree with you, more didactic methods need to be adapted (especially in distance education)

    I felt very represented with what you wrote about how much the university invades our lives, I think that part of the university challenge is to have spaces of relaxation and to develop ourselves in other areas at the same time that we deal with the academic load.

What it has been like to live in a pandemic?

When the quarantine started, I was comfortable with the idea of staying at home with no social interaction, but I never thought it would last this long... In the first months of quarentine, my family was so worried about the cleanliness, so they washed their hands frequently and cleaned the house many times a day.  Then, my father get the virus and he was in bed for a week, the same as my grandma. But I´m glad the situation didn´t get worse. I think we are a lucky family, because the virus just made my father and grandma suffer from headache, but they are still with me. Also, my mother hasn't caught the virus and is an at-risk patient, so we have really been lucky. About activities during the quarentine, I started reading a lot of comics and I get interested about drawing, because the idea of telling storys through drawings seemed very fascinating to me, so I took some courses to learn how to draw anatomy.  Regarding my studies, they became a problem when the classes star...

A country I would like to visit

Imagen
 In the last months I've thinking so much about Japan, because on social media often appear me videos about this country, so I would to visit Japan someday. All I know about Japan is that one time at the year the cherry trees bloom and offers a beautiful view. Also, the architecture is so amazing, I love the temples! If I ever got the chance to go, I would like to go in March or April, because in this months cherry blossoms, so I could take a lot of photos of this spectacular scene.  When I thinking about Japan, I can’t imagine studying or working there, because on some videos about tourism I've heard that the life in this country is so expensive (especially the transport). So, at the moment, I just wanna visit Japan like a tourist for a few weeks! And obviously visit some of the iconic places, like Mount Fuji or the Kiyomizu-dera temple.
