Post 1: A Country I would like to visit

 The country I would like to visit is Norway because since I was a child I feel a very special conection with this place, I really want to see the Northern lights with my own eyes, I think that experience would be so amazing. I also want to know the different cities of this country, enjoy nature and learn the language, which I think is very beautiful. I would also like to travel in winter to see the snow there and learn to ski.

 Maybe when I´m older I would like to live there and have a peaceful old age full of nature, or maybe work there for a while.

Post 8: A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

 One subject in this second semester that I enjoyed is ¨Destrezas II¨, in the first semester we also had this subject but I liked it much more now, because we had more practical work, where we developed our skills, learning how to use the instruments, how to prepare and mix some of the materials.

The classes were mostly asynchronous but every week on Thursdays we had to connect to the practical activity. The teacher and an assistant were always there guiding us on how to prepare the materials and teaching us how to use them. 

Last week we finally had the experience of attending this subject in person at the university, it was even more entertaining than online, the time I spent there went by very quickly. 

I think it is the subject that brings us closer to the world of dentistry and it is very important that we are taught everything we learn in class from the first year, so that we are better prepared to treat real patients, and also better prepared for the subjects we will have next year.

Post 7: Career-Related Website

Although it is not a website as such, it is an application that can be downloaded on android and apple and its name is "Human Anatomy Atlas 2021", it is an atlas of general human anatomy in 3D, it has the option to see the bones, muscles, organs and systems of the human body, it is very complete and helps to have a more realistic view of our anatomy. 
I think that for the first year of the career it is very useful to see general anatomy and head and neck anatomy. I used this application in the first semester for the anatomy course and now in the second semester it is a help for the biological and anatomical bases course. 
Sometimes it is difficult to think of body structures in 3D but the atlas helps to make that not so difficult.
In addition, the application includes tests on the subject you want to study and it is a great help.
I like the application because the animations are very nice and of good quality and it allows to have a very complete study of the human body.

Post 6: How Can Your Major Make the World a Better Place

I believe that dentistry can make a positive contribution to people´s health. I chose this career because I think it is beautiful to give smiles to people. The fact we can help them to have a better self-esteem and to feel more confident and beautiful by smiling seems to me to be very important and great contribution on a social and personal level. 

In the future I see myself working with adult patients, educating them about oral disease prevention, treating various problems and performing surgery. I would also like to help and work with low-income people who cannot afford the high cost of treatment. as I have seen people who avoid smiling because they are embarrassed about their teeth and I feel very sorry for them. 

I hope to do my best in this learning process so that I can make a positive contribution to people and society through my work.

This was my cat, his name was Benito Benítez, we adopted him last year when he was only two months and sadly passed away last Sunday because he was sick, he had cancer, it was inevitable and this last time he was suffering a lot because he couldn´t breathe properly.

This photo was taken in the summer and we were in the garden of my house planting some new plants that my father had bought and as always my cats are supervising our work👀

I choose this photo because I like the look of his big yellow eyes and because this photo reminds me of the good life he had, full of love and affection. I miss him too much because he slept with me every night and accompanied me a lot during the day. He was a very good friend and a very special cat, and I believe that he will always be with me in some way.

 My favourite food is pasta, I like noodles because I consider that cooking them is not difficult, and also because there are so many accompaniments and ways to eat them, but especially I like to eat it whit natural tomato sauce and soy meat, I also like to eat noodles with Alfredo sauce, and another way I like to eat it is with scrambled eggs and also with sauteed vegetables. 

I´ve been to Italian restaurants and ordered pizzas and pastas, but one of the best pasta dishes I´ve eaten was at a restaurant in Olmué, I don´t remember the name of the place, I only know that it has been one of the dishes I have enjoyed the most in my life.

Ever since I was a child it has been my favourite food and I don´t think that will change, I think I could eat noodles every day and I wouldn´t get bored of them, but I don´t think that would be very good for my health.

I think that learning English is something fundamental nowadays, both at university, where we have to read documents in English, and in our ...
