Are you good with money or bad with money? Why do you think that is?

I think that I am good with the money, because I like save money, then when I need it I can use my money that I have saving.

Do you sometimes have to borrow money from other people? Are you able to pay them back quickly? Or, do other people sometimes borrow money from you? Do they pay you back quickly?

Yes sometimes I have to borrow money from other people, but I usually borrow to my mom or my old brother, thank God I never had feeling a strong need like to borrow money urgently. When I borrow money to other person, I try to pay him or her back quickly, I don’t like have problems with the people, the money can be a reason to get angry.
I have borrowed money to other people too. I usually borrow money to friends, to my mom, my boyfriend, but I haven’t borrowed them a lot of money, then I don’t care if they pay me back quikly.

Do you like to manage money, or is it something you dread?
I like to manage money, although I prefer to spend the money jajajaja that is funnier.
I don’t dread it, I think the people have that to learn to manage money. The money isn’t something to fear, the problem is we must learn to use money, in the first place are the debts, and in second place are the luxuries.

How do you pay your bills? Online, at the bank, or another way?
usually, I pay my bills with cash, because I don’t have a lot of bills.
In my home, sometimes my mom pay bills online, or in the bank. Depend of kind of bill.

Do you think public schools should teach children how to manage money, or is this the responsibility of parents and family?
I think that public schools, parent and family should teach children how to manage money. When I were in the school, in a subject called civic education, teach us to manage money, each student should manage his or her own salary, and each one had differents responsibilities and differents bills. It was a very good exercises to learn to manage money.

Do you use a bank? Are you happy with it? Why, why not?
I have a credit card, but I don’t use a bank, because I never have time to go to bank.

WHAT IS THE CURRENT SITUATION IN YOUR FACULTY?

My Faculty is very nice, the teachers are very accesible and I like the psychology program, but I think that there are many things that can improve such as offer more courses of forensic psychology and clinical psychology, we need that the faculty hires more teachers, and the last thing that I think the faculty should improve is be more tidy with the academic scheduling, because usually we have all the tests in the same date, and this is very stressful.
There is a problem that affects all the Social Sciences Faculty, this is that in our library there are not many books, and this is a severe problem because the students of social sciences Faculty need to read so much and different books every day.

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR FIRST STEPS TO DEALING WITH THIS SITUATION?

I think the problema is economic, the university is characterized as being of good quality but also for having a bad administration, I find that this is the main problem.
The first is that the people that are working in administration find solutions to economic problems.

HOW WOULD YOU RESOLVE THIS SITUATION?

Well, but like students the first is to ask the director of Faculty if he can hire more teachers for we have more variety of courses. And ask for that the faculty has a better organization.

WHAT COULD BE THE REAL BENEFITS/IMPACT OF THESE IMPROVEMENTS?

The faculty would increase its reputation, and more people would like to join this Faculty. And the second place, the impact of these improvents would be in the studentes too.

I like the forensic psichology, so I would like to do my practical in some place related with this area of the psichology, can be some psichologycal center give psichological care to victims of crime, but I would like to do the practical in the court too, because a psichologist can work doing expert’s report to help to explain what things happened in the crime, this job is very intersting and can be a big help to judge in the decision .
I find that do the practical in both places would be amazing, it would be a good opportunity. The problema is that I am not sure still what line of psichology to choose, because I like the therapy, the clinanical psichology, but I like the forensic psichology too. And this is a big problema because both lines are very different, and I must decide between the therapy or the judicial job. Unfortunality I can not to work in both lines.
Really I must decide because the next year I will have that choose the practical, I must finish all the subjects and if I pass them, I may apply for a practical job. Then still I have time for decide, because I am starting with the elective subjects, I need to pass them to I can know that line of psichology is my favorite.

The things that I like to do in my free time

The Transantiago

hello!

Today I am going to talk about Transantiago. My opinion about the new sistem of transport it isn't very good, because before I usually took the underground, but now I hate it.
The last time that took the underground I almost died, it was so completelly full, inside it was very hot and you couldn't breathe, it was unbearable.
I don't really use the transantiago, because thank God my old brother gave me a car, so when I have to go out I use the car. Then I don't know in what way is it better or worse the transantiago, I only know that before go to the center of Santiago from La Florida it wasn't so awful. I am no sure the difference the time of travel, but before the underground or the bus it wasn't so replete than now.
I think the sistem is more orderly than before, I find that it was a good idea that the Ministry of transportation organized the streets with the exclusive roads, that facilitated to reduce in the traffic jam.
Other good caracteristic the new sistem is that the city looks cleaner than before, because before the streets was covered of buses and they were the different colors and they was dreadfull, really the old sistem it was very bad.
I think that increasing the number the buses the problema could be solved.

During the first semester of 2009 I learned many important things such us the differents lines of psichology, they are occupational psichology, community psichology, clinical psichology, educational psichology and the most intersting for me forensic psichology. I know the fundaments of their. I think that the last semester was very hard and important because later you must choose one line of psichlogy and for this reason you must study every line for in the future you can take a good decision.
I didn’t have many free time the last semester, but when I had a little bit, I got out with my friends. I like to meet with my friends for dinner or go to somebar too. Also in my free time I like to watch movies with my boyfriend or series, because we are fanatics of series, we have watched Lost, In Treatment, Harperst Iland and Prison Break.
I usually am studying, but when my brothers go to my house with their family, I try of finish of study and I play with my nephews and talk with my brothers too. I like to have a time for my family.
Finally, the challenges I had to face were organize myself with the time for study and with others responsabilities such us to work (I was doing class to students of school) and I must help to my mom with the housework.

What your ideal job would be?

I thinking in my ideal job, I would to work in a physiological center, specifically on the forensic line of the psychology, where my job would be see to victims of some kind of crime that need therapeutic help or some legal advise. My job would be help to the person to recover of the traumatic experience. But also, I would have a job in the prison, because many people that live in the prison are subject to inhuman conditions that detrimental the possibilities of rehabilitation.

What qualities and skills you would need to do this job?
I think that the qualities and skills that I would need are perseverance in the study, because you need always are informed about The evidences about crime, therapy in the victims and criminals, and live in prison too. Then the first qualities is to be studious.
Also I would need be understanding and have the skills of keep a empathic therapeutic relationship with the victims and with the criminals.

Why you would be good at this job?
would be good at this job for me, because I am very interested in forensic psychology, is a job relatively new in Chile, and our country has very problems related with the crime, reparation of the victims and rehabilitation of the criminals.

How difficult it would be to find this kind of job?
Would be very difficult find this job, because the prison doesn’t have money for hire psychologists and the victimologists centers have the professionals sufficient.
Also I would need study a post degree for I have this job.
