Blog 1 - Personal Information.

 Hi there, welcome to my blog :)

I'm Alicia Meza. I was born on August 22nd in Santiago, Chile. I am a member of a family of 5. If I include the family of my older sister, we are 7.  I was raised in Peñalolen with my grandmothers. 

I don't like to talk about where I studied when I was on the school. But, at the moment, I am a second year student of sociology at the Universidad de Chile. Unfortunately, everything has been online.

My dad was a very popular soccer player in my community. He was part of a team called Cultural Esfuerzo. Everybody was a big fan of it. 

I like some sports too. I like to do yoga, swimming and biking. Also, I love gardening. I spend most of my time taking care of my plants, and also learning about them !

My favorite piece of technology !

One of my daily hobbies is listening to music. When I was a kid, I had an MP3 player on which I listened to pop music, but when I turned thirteen I got my first phone. Before Spotify existed, I would download all my favorite songs onto it. I would get really frustrated when I didn't have any more space to store the songs.  On my phone I can also do other activities, like taking pictures, or watching series. I also order my academic responsibilities on it ! If I were to think about what my life would be like without a cell phone, it would definitely be too boring. I wouldn't be able to distract myself or be responsible with my homework.

Why I choose to study sociology?

Imagen
Hello ! I have to confess that I'm not a such big fan of the humanities. In my childhood I was a big fan of biology and chemistry. Even in high school I was a student who belonged to the science class. I wanted to be a marine biology, because I love animals so much. But everything has changed the time I turn 16 when I started to be an activist from the LGBTQ rights in my school. I met some feminist friends who taught me a lot of philosophy and history. That's how I discovered some careers that I'm interested, like Anthropology or Psychology. But I decided to study Sociology. By far, My experience at the university has been good. I made friends who are passionate about the career and we studied together. I love learning new theories about the society ! In the future, I would like to work in an ONG specialized in protecting the rights of trans children and adolescents in the country, like OTD or Amanda Jofré.

My favorite photo

 First of all, my favorite photo is not of a place. This photograph is many years old. I was still a little girl between 3 or 4 years old.  The people next to me are my grandparents, Ana and Eduardo. My mom took the picture on a winter morning, they were testing my grandmother's new camera.  It's my favorite picture because I'm with the two people I love the most. They have raised me, from the time I attended kindergarten until I graduated from high school. My grandmother, Ana, taught me English when I was 6 years old. I learned how to pronounce some colors, how to say hello and how to ask permission to go to the bathroom. She certainly knew a lot!
