My future job

Today I’m going to talk about my future job or job that I would have when I get out of university.

Well, as I'm studying psychology, probably I will work in a field of my career and that's not bad because I really like psychology. I think that I will work in organizational field because is a very well paid job and has the following features.

Into the organizational field there are two areas for work; staff selection and human resource development. I like more the area of human resource development because here you work training people for the enterprise, isn't only for the benefit of the company because the person is the most benefited with training. You work helping people about their labor problems and teach them new strategies for personal development.

Today, this is the most profitable work and need many psychologists so why I think it isn’t difficult find work in this field. It will always be necessary to increase the profits of a company in this globalized world and therefore develop human resources.

In addition to the characteristics of work in the organizational area, I mentioned that in this field you make much money, which is important for the plans I have in my future. First, I would like to continue studying in the field to specialize in my second career and I wish I could give my family a good life, where I can satisfy them in any way necessary.

I hope you liked it.

Discrimination

Discrimination is everywhere, but don't want to discriminate, I think we are always discriminating. It's completely bad from my point of view because it makes people feel bad because of some condition or any specific idea or belief that isn't going according to the canons of the society or of the ideas of the majority. For example, if I do not agree with democracy, people discriminate me because I will not vote; or if I am poor, I have a special and  predetermined place on the outskirts of the city where I can live in peace, I have a predetermined salary and I have a poor school that don´t will help me get into university, etc.

I think people discriminate because everybody feel insecure of how different we can be, also that at certain times there are specific groups who need to have power for discriminate other people.

I don´t know how not to discriminate against people because we are always discriminating in ways subtle or very notorious, when we have a prejudice of a person we are discriminating according to how we think he is and we differentiate that concept. The dangerous thing is to make these prejudices a form of domination and imposition of one group over another.

Although I don't know fix this problem I think that is necessary that all the people do our part and not frighten us over the other people because everyone is different and so we will not be mistreating people different from us, we must learn to live with that and respect each other.

How green are you?

Really, I have never asked about protect the environment and when I did, I always think before telling people to change their habits about environmental care, the State should assume the problem of pollution, and compel to the big companies and enterprises that don't get dirty more our sky. 

But of course, the problem is the people because we are poor, but the companies aren't responsible for the pollution because they have money and they will never get the blame for something.

After this short introduction, I would like to talk a bit about caring for the environment, because the environment is for all of us and we must take care. This just learn it because I have often been inconsistent with the environment, but I guess I'm forgiven because every time I learn more of how you take care.

I don't know exactly how to care for the environment but I think that you shouldn't throw garbage on the street, not smoking if possible, and recycle trash that can be recycled, such as plastic bottles, cans, glass bottles, among others.

I don't belong to any environmental organization, nor ride a bicycle to university, sometimes throw garbage on the street, nor I am a person who recycles much, but I think this topic is very important, but for us to change in favor to the environment care, we must change our social practices and understand that we can change the course of pollution, to learn better techniques that can help to heal this world so polluted.

The environment should be cared for by all of us and even though the state does not worry about it, we can and must do for our own good. I'm improving my practices with the environment, what are you gonna do?

My best holiday

For me, holidays are the best time of year because I leave the university and I have a little break from everything they want there. I have a little break because of the two month vacation, usually work a month and a bit more and then rest for a couple of days. 

But those days are the best of the year, because I do nothing or go out to the beach or go south of Chile. My best vacation was in 2008 when I left the country and went to Brazil with my friends from church. The experience was great because I met other people, I met important places such as Iguazú Falls, Argentina and Paraguay went through, seeing the landscape and knowing other cultures.

My worst holiday I don't know because the holidays are generally very good or just good, but still betterthan the year in general, so for me there isn't bad vacation.

This year I went on vacation to the south to see my mother's family and I want to do the holidays coming is to go to northern Chile because I don't know, so I'm very interested, but that I have money and work again.

Hopefully you don't have to work to go on vacation and enjoy every one of these days. Enjoy them as I do.

The first semester

The first half of this year was a little boring, with good and bad things. Today I will concentrate on the good things to tell my first semester.

In the career I'm studying, the first two years are introductory but this third year begin elective classes and you know the fields where you can work. This semester I learned from different areas, for example: educational psychology, occupational psychology, clinical psychology, etc. This I liked because we moved from theoretical to practical flat psychology.

Another thing I liked was the semester I obtained good marks in all classes and also most of the classes weren´t written tests but they did essays and group work, which I like to be studying for the written tests.

Well, and away from the academic field, in the field of love I was with some fights that almost did end my relationship with my girlfriend but that didn't happen. I still love us to stay together and not end!

That was my semester, some think it was very boring and others may find it entertaining, I just know that there were more things that maybe I forgot to spend the time on autopilot.

Regards!

The Wisdom of Psychopaths by Kevin Dutton

A woman attends the funeral of his mother and she sees a man who loves, quickly she thinks this man is her soulmate but not get the phone number. A few days later she murders her sister. Why the woman killed her sister?

There are many answers for this case but a possible answer from a person with psychopathic characteristics, is saying that the woman killed her sister to see the man again she liked at the funeral of her mother.

Kevin Dutton writes in his book the characteristics of people with psychopathic traits and how these traits aren´t bad most of the time, but are present in many people, from big businessmen or lawyers to the worst criminals.

What Dutton explains is to be a good or bad psychopath depends of the social environment in which the person unfolds as being a psychopath isn't bad, the bad is being raised in a social environment dangerous and this take you by the antisocial way.

For me, the important thing about this article is that it shows the importance of the social environment in which we develop and that once it is equal for everyone, we can solve the problems of the poor, even the topic of psychopathy, which isn't own criminals or delinquents because is present in many people.

I hope you can also think about this item, for that I leave the link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2012/oct/07/wisdom-of-psychopaths-kevin-dutton-review?INTCMP=SRCH

My favourite movie

Well, today I’m going to talk about movies. Each person has their own tastes when we talk about movies, some like romantic movies, others like comedies, and others like the anime. I have seen many movies and different genres, I love watch movies!

If I had to choose the genre of movie that I like more, I choose the horror and scary movies. I've seen many films of this genre, some of them are: “Resident evil”, “The chainsaw of texas”, “Saw”, “The orphanage”, “Jeepers creepers”, “Nightmare on the Elm street”, “Paranormal activity”, etc. As I like horror movies, it's very hard for me choose one of them as the one I like but if I make the effort, I choose "The exorcist". 

"The exorcist" is an old movie without many special effects but the suspense that shows is very good. The first time I saw it, I was 10 years old, I was in the house of my aunt Lily with all my family around me, I saw in the night and I was very scared. I've seen it 3 or 4 times, including the latest version. Now I'm not so scared like the first time but it's still a great movie.

If you like horror films, "The Exorcist" is a film that you can't miss.
