Why I chose psychology?

When I started the university in 2012, I thought I wanted to study Medicine, particulary, forensic medicine, for that reason I applied to "Bachillerato" at Universidad de Chile. In fact, Universidad de Chile was my only option. No matter what, the career or other thing I knew I really wanted to study at Universidad de Chile because I did some classes for EdV (Summer School of Universidad de Chile) like human anatomy, cancer and cancer cells, contemporany literature and cellular medicine. I enjoyed a lot that classes, I made good friends and the atmosphere was nice. Of course, I learned many things about human medicine.

Well, I chose sciences at Bachillerato, but the first semester was a nightmare, I hated Math and Physics, and If I'm honest I hated all subjets about sciences. I liked the classes of Sociology and Antropholoy And I loved Psychology classes. After two months, I knew I wanted to study Psychology. 

I went to the psychologist of Bachillerato for a few times and talked with her about that. She thought I was satisfied with my choice (and this is very unlikely because I'm always obssesive and anxious). Then, in 2013, I applied to Psychology. 

Now, I'm in 3th year and this is THE career of my life. I can't imagine to study another one. I'm happy because I study a very human career, hahaha. But seriously, it's true, I have learned to see other person as a human, not only as an organism or a body. 

In the future, I hope to be a good psychologist and help children. 

WHO AM I?

Hi everyone! I'm Maria Gracia, but my nickname is Grace, easier to say and to remember. I'm a student of Psychology at the Chile University. I was born in Lima on Dec 8th, 1994. I’m 21 years old. I`m Peruvian and I have lived in Chile for about nine years. Most of the time I like Chile, it has many amazing places, but sometimes the weather is terrible.

Well, I'm an only child. Now, I live with my Mom. Her name is Ingrid. She's a nurse and works in the Roberto del Rio Hospital. I have ten cousins. I don't have nephews or nieces at the moment. My oldest cousin, Diana, is 27 years old. She's married with a Chilean man. Her wedding was last year, it was beautiful!

I love music, series, movies and books. My favourite author is Stephen King. He's the best! I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, and when I'm alone, I love reading.
I prefer fantastic literature. My future plans are to be a great psychologist and move to Germany, any German city.

Have a nice week :)
