# 7 Santiago stories

Cycle lane in Santiago
I haven't a funny experience in the public transport of santiago. I have only 2 years with a routine around of this city (and in anything case, in my town all are very quiet), andsince last year i don't use public transport, I travel in bike to university. Therefore, if I have anecdotes in Santiago not are in public transport, if not in my bike

The more recent, was close to my home. The situation was the next:
My route in cycle lane finish in "Estación Mapocho", this area is very conflictual, many people pass and travelling salespersons put yours food carts in the cycle lane! 
Always I to get off of my bike and walk with much care (but always I fear that jump oil to me).
That day, apparently two men collided with one another, just when I pass with my bike, and of a minute to other, I be stuck in a fight!

I don't knew as react, I only wanted leave of the situation, but the cycle lane was full of people an I canned not pass!! I stayed bowed while the men said insult and is gived push, until finally the people opened way and I can pass.
It was a experience very strange and uncomfortable, but at least the push of they not come me. I remember only one day in that I canned pass easily, and was because the police was close and the travelling salespersons could not sell your food.

#5 My future job

Imagen
When I think about my future jobs, I imagine me working in a small study of architecture, in my practice, and after I imagine me work in a municipality, of steady way. I haven't a clarity about the job opportunities, I know that a architect can work in many specialties, but I only know about desing and urban plannig, and I prefer the last, although not is a popular area. I prefer a schedule office job to full-time, I like have a organized week and I don´t like work-at-home. With a freelance schedule I would can accumulate work fo the last minute and that not is good. The idea of have my own study of architecture not excite me, I prefer a consolidated business. I would like travel, but not especially for my job because I would haven't free time for go all over, but not si a opportuny that I would reject. Whit respect to salary, I think than I would start with a small salary, around of $500.000CLP and with the time (more experience) my salary would can grow around of 1.0...

#2 Mago de öz concert!

Imagen
This was my first concert!. Was a 21th May of 2015 in the "Teatro Caupolicán". The concert was of Mago de Öz, my favourite band. This is a Folck-Metal band, the difference owith other styles of metal is that they use classic instruments in combination whit electric instruments. I loved this band not only for the music (rhythm), also i liked the focus of his lyrics. I knew this band in the high school when I participated in the orchestra school. I loved the armony between electric sound and classic melodies Before the concert the people looked very intimidating, the guys used black wear and in the line to enter (I dont remember the time I waited...) the people drank beer!, was very funny... In the concert all people sang and jumped, in an moment all (inclusive me) waited  anxiously a song in specif and in a paused of the concert (when the singer talked a little) all people start to sing the lyrics of this song. Finally this song not was played for they, but was sung to c...

#4 Stress in FAU

Imagen
I think that stress is a topic extremely normalize in FAU (not only in the career of architecture) and I consider that this is very stupid, I not undertand how someone feel proud for learn at the expense of sleep only 3 hours. Ok, the teacher can be very good, but, overload of work is the only form o learn? Obviously no. In FAU, the stress is generated for the accumulation of work, not only of workshop, of all the subjects, this added to frustration can generated depression. The problem is that all subjects are important, but the teacher of workshop consider normal left out the other subjects for can finish the workshop work, and is logic that this is a bad idea. I my case, I suffered very much in my first year, mainly because I thought that this pace of work was normal and that I not was capable. Finally, I understood that my quality of life decreased and not was my blame, the next semester I chose with care my teachers. My only advice is not to blame oneself, the problem is the...
