  My AirPods are one of my favourite things. I use them mainly to listen to music on the long way back home. That trip becomes heavy and boring, but with the AirPods I can disconnect from the noise and immerse myself in my songs. I also use them when I want to concentrate while I do some college work. I put on my headphones and that helps me focus, blocking the distractions around. I've had them since the beginning of the year because my boyfriend gave them to me. That makes them even more special to me, since not only do they serve me a lot, but every time I use them I remember the gesture and affection of that gift. In addition, they are super easy to use. The first time it was a bit confusing to connect them to the cell phone, but after that they connect themselves automatically. They have touch functions, so I can change the song or the volume without taking out the cell phone, which is very practical when I have my hands busy. Another great thing is the sound quality. It reall

 This semester has been quite intense, with ups and downs. My favourite class is computational tools because it focusses more on what I like: graphic design. I always learn something new that interests me, and it makes me super entertaining. In addition, the teacher is very friendly and flexible, which makes it even better. I feel like I'm making a lot of progress in this area, and that motivates me. On the other hand, I have not enjoyed the class of processes and prototypes. He focusses a lot on industrial design, which I don't like at all. I don't get along with the tools, and the jobs have been complicated because I feel like I don't have the necessary skills. I don't like the transversal class either, because I'm alone, without my friends, and most of my classmates are from other careers, which makes it uncomfortable. I don't have a very strict weekly plan, but I try to advance as much as possible during classes so as not to leave everything at the end.

A teacher that I remember a lot about school is Professor Paola. She taught me math, but she also taught in the computational thinking elective. In this elective, he taught me how to program from scratch using games. She was very friendly and was always willing to help her students when they had doubts, both about math and programming. What impressed me most about her was how much she knew about mathematics, she literally looked like a human calculator. He explained everything in a very clear way, and made mathematics easier and even fun. In addition, in the computational thinking elective, he taught us programming in a very entertaining way, always using games that made learning more dynamic. Thanks to her, mathematics became one of my favourite subjects, and I also learned to program, something that now in college has been very useful to me. Everything I learned with her has helped me a lot in my current studies. The last time I saw her was about a month ago, when I went back to scho

During the week of the Fiestas Patrias, I especially enjoyed the time at home, but I also visited my boyfriend's house and my grandmother's house. In my house, we organised a mini inn. We decorated the place and enjoyed music while we danced. We play typical games and enjoy delicious empanadas and anticuchos, which are typical during these celebrations. While everyone else enjoyed the earthquakes, I chose to eat mote with bone, because I don't like earthquakes. We also went to the circus, which was very entertaining and funny, in addition to the fact that we managed to make my little brother lose his fear of clowns. I really enjoyed this week a lot since it was full of joy and laughter.

When I started 2022, I met someone named Felipe. We met at an old friend's party. At this party we had a long conversation about everything, as if we knew each other all our lives. Felipe is the kind of person you can feel comfortable with because he is very sweet, happy and very funny. Well, we finally ended up being a couple, now he's my boyfriend and we really enjoyed eating together or watching movies or doing nonsense like washing the car. Now Felipe will probably go to university because he studies Engineering at the Catholic University. We usually meet with him every weekend or some days of the week when we go to the university.
