Why did i choose my major?

 I am an only child and when I was little I had no children around to play with, so I played alone with my toys.Since I was a little girl I liked animals and I played that I was the veterinarian of my stuffed animals, I also liked barbies and making clothes for them, at that time I dreamed of being a veterinarian or being a fashion designer when I grew up. 

As I grew up I wasn't sure what profession I wanted, but it had to be something related to biology and chemistry since they were the subjects I liked the most. 

I looked for science related careers and found biochemistry and it became my first choice as it had everything I liked, my second choice was veterinary medicine because my love for animals never left. When I applied to college I stayed in my first choice and was very happy.

Despite that I have only had online classes and not seeing my classmates in person I have, made several friends and even though the college experience has been very stressful I am not giving up because I am fulfilling my dream of being in college and in the career I love. 

In the future I would like to work in scientific research about diseases or something related to environmental care.

    I love animals too! I think biochemistry is a very interesting carrer, when I postulated for university I have no idea about that carrer , maybe I would be studying biochemistry too.

A meal or food I really like

Imagen
I don't really have a favorite kind of food, it's very hard to choose one when I like almost all of them; I really like pasta, with tomato sauce, cream and mushrooms or just with cheese, there are so many different ways to eat pasta that I love, I also really like pizza, mashed potatoes and rice. I am a vegetarian so, I eat a lot of vegetables and legumes, my favorites are broccoli, cabbage and black beans, my mom cooks very well so everything she makes is delicious and that's why I like so many different kinds of food. Now we are in tangerine season, I love tangerines, they are my favorite fruit along with raspberries. I also love chocolate it's something I couldn't live without. As I am a vegetarian I care a lot about having a balanced diet so I eat fruits and vegetables every day, plus I eat legumes quite often. Since I stopped eating meat I feel more energetic and much healthier.

A photo and its story

This photo is very important for me, it was the first concert I went to, so it was a very special moment, Green Day was my favorite band at that time, and when they gave me the tickets for the concert I was very happy and excited, that day has been one of the happiest of my life, I had a great time and I will always remember that moment. This photo is from 2017, the concert was on a Saturday and since it was in Santiago I had to travel there on Friday, I still remember that a few days later I had a presentation at school and my friends told me not to shout too much at the concert to take care of my voice. I went to the concert with my godmother, she has been in all the important moments of my life, so that day was very special. I had a great time that day it was a lot of fun and I would like to go to a concert again. I was going to go to the Billie Eilish concert in 2020, it was going to be the week of my birthday, but because of the pandemic it was cancelled, I hope that soon this w
