BLOG 2: Why did I choose my career?

Hi everybody! Today I tell you how I ended up here; in the theatrical design career 😦

For the start, I never was confident of what I wanted to be as an adult.

I have always been insecure when the people ask me "what you want to be?", because  I avoid the question. I really don`t like this question, because I like so many things, and with the question I feel that I will to do only this thing, and that´s all 😢

It was not a very pleasant situation, because I like to be a lot of things like painter, veterinarian, chef, and more

When I finish my high school, I`m still undecided. So, I took a sabbatical year, where I did a pre-university. There, I went to the vocational counsellor. Then, she make me decided the arts for a job or for a hobby. And I choose both, because I can 😎. So, my mom wanted to help me (as always💕), and together we saw a lots of careers, but focus on arts (and some others careers not). 

I saw so many options, since physiology, social worker, visual arts, dance, music (although I don´t know what I would do there if I don´t know anything about music), among others.

When I came to research on theater careers, that´s when I came across theater design.

I saw that the career had a lot of what I actually like. This had make up,  clothes design, color and draw.

Actually, I am in the second year of the career. And...the first year was a little complicated because of the pandemic (all of us are very tired and try to do our best). It was very hard for me, ´cause I did know what it means to be in university (schedules, works, more responsibility,  the pace of work, etc). Even, at the finish of the school year, I was sick from saving all the stress that I didn't know I had; and from to be focused on complete with what they asked to me, because I felt that if I stopped for a moment or cried, I was going to waste time. But, obviously, all that was from the worst time planning that I have 😞.

For the future, I want to do a job where I can do everything (what I can think of).

  2. The truth is that in this career the academic load and stress is normalized. there is an overload of credits and courses, so if you need to breathe don't feel guilty!

    it has been difficult with this pandemic to get to know your class and those entering this year, but if you need help or advice contact me.

    many nanai for you <3

  3. great post, Paulina :)

    Some things to consider:

    I`m never was ->> I never was

    I`m always be insecure --> I have always been insecure.

    Also remember when talking about the past, the verbs need to be in the past: So, I take a sabbatical year, where I make a pre-university --> so I took a sabbatical year, where I did a pre-university :D

  4. As Yanina said, if you need to breathe and cry, do it without guilt! we are human and especially in a career like this where stress is always present, it is necessary to take a moment for yourself.

First Blog: The places I would like to know

The thruth is that I am never had a favorite color, thing, person or place, if i`m sincere. There are so many places and locations that i would like to know. So, i will make a list (a looong list). 1. One of them maybe could be the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha in Brasil. I think it is a warm place, with sunny days, and is a world heritage, and I'm interested in patrimony. 2. Another place could be Denmark, I would like to go to the Kronborg`s castle, another world heritage. And, of course, i canot missing Copenhague and the lake Kronborg, a lake upon the ocean (i really love it). 3. La Toscana, in Italy, is one of the most beautiful regions that i`ve ever seen. Cities with artistic and cultural patrimony (again), like Florencia o Siena, and pretty little towns like San Gimignano o Volterra. Definitely, a place that i really want to go someday. 4. The Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul, South Korea. It was the residence of the kings of Korea in the Joseon Dynasty, duri...

Second Blog: The Best Concert/Holiday Ever...

Hello again! On my second entry I will be writing about some past memories When I went to Pichilemu in january of 2019. I went with my group of friends and mi mother, because our parents don`t like that we travel alone. But, we choose her cause my friends knows and love her. Basically, we went because we didn`t have a trip of fourth grade high school (sad, I know), all because the course had very marked groups, and every group wants to went to a different places, so we could not reach an agreement. For that, as a group, we decided to make a travel into the unknow (like Elsa), we we organize suitcases, buy tickets and rent some cabins in the place. We take this trip as a means of relaxing and congratulating ourselves on having finished the study process and after the last meetings, rehearsals and ceremonies that that last day entails. It took us three or four hours to go to Pichilemu, and in two taxis, our group finally arrive to the cabins. They were a set of connected cabins that...

Fifth Blog: Academic Challenges for 2021

Hello to everyone! ✨🌸 Being already at the end of 2021, almost 2 years into the pandemic, I could say that, from my point of view, this year has been almost the same as its predecessor. For this very reason -and having started university life in 2020-, the academic load and everything that this new stage entails has been affected. So far for me everything has been a challenge, from the content, which is completely new since I entered the career without knowing much about it; evaluations and schedules, to socializing, stress and the increased responsibility expected of me. But, I think the biggest challenge is having to do everything by myself; I still receive help, but it is an age and stage in which I have to take care of myself. For the same reason, I believe that being at home, in large part due to the world situation, has not allowed me to do it in its entirety. All this has left me studying from home remotely, which clearly has two sides: on the one hand it is more comfortable to...
