A piece of news

I remember really well when Pinochet died. That day I was at my boss´s house because the night before we had worked on an event until late. When I woke up and we turned the television I saw the news. In that moment I took my things, left and went to my cousin´s house in Providencia, I was living with her for a month. 

The city was empty near her neighborhood because a lot of people was at the Military Hospital. I decided that my first stop had to be there. When I arrived it was a bit weird for me. I wasn't with “my people”, I wasn't crying or thinking why he died or about the good person he was in his life because that thoughts don’t exist in my mind (luckily)

 I remember that people there, were really aggressive, uncontrolled and I was afraid of them. I wasn't there long  and after I took a bus and went to the place where I really wanted to be: Plaza Italia. 

All the people there were happy, really really happy. It was a street party, a carnival. And there were my people, my friends, my teachers, my world. 

Was the first, and I think, the only time that I saw many people on the streets and almost no police. I was there many hours laughing, singing, and dancing all together as if we were friends. Was the best popular party I've been to in my life, for sure.

My future job

Sometimes, I really don’t know what I want to do in my future. I´m sure that I don’t want the typical life or the typical job, is not for me I think. Is not my dream to have the good car or the biggest house and, for the same, I don't want the best job in the world winning a lot of money but with almost nothing of time for me. The only think that I want is building my own company, my own business with time for me, being my own boss and making my ideas.

But, if one day I really need a formal job I hope that will be in something that I believe. For me could be the best job do something while I´m travelling. Could we lovely write chronicles about cities, people and realities. I don’t want work always in the same city, in the same job, with the same people. I think that for me is necessary always to have changes. Maybe, one day, I decide remain in the same country for years, but in this moment the only think that I want is movement. Because, I have the idea that the only way for be a really good journalist is seeing different things  in different places for after have a real idea about what is happened in other parts of the world.

A book you like

I've always liked to read. I remember that the first book that I read in my life was about a fox. That day I had been almost all afternoon in the living room reading through a glass. How this? Well, when I was child my mom had a table with a glass and when I wanted read, I put the book open on top of the surface and after I settled down the glass for see the pages and read. It was very stupid indeed but at time I realized how much I enjoy reading.

Could be really typical but my favorite book is “The Little Prince”. The first time I read that book was when I was about ten years. I am not sure how I got my first copy. I have the idea that my grandmother gave me the book one day but probably, sometime at  school some teacher gave us the book to read.

Today, I think that I have maybe five copies of the book, is like my small collection and I thing that I like so much because every time I read is different. For me is like dream: I start reading, I can imagine other time, other world. I can remember and may is a cliche, the things that are really important for me.
