Sweet food

Imagen
I’m not very good at cooking because, at home, it’s my older brother who has the talent and the abilities, so he is the one that cooks. And, if he is not in the house, my mom cooks, even when she doesn’t like it. However, time ago, I discovered that I really like to make desserts and I’m not bad at it. I have one special cake that I like to do. It’s a dessert of chocolate and almonds that I made the last year while I was alone. Although I left my family a piece of it. I love the chocolate so this recipe is perfect, and I do it when I have time and I’m alone, because I feel more comfortable cooking when there is nobody at home. I got the recipe from internet. First I melt butter with chocolate powder, sugar, water and almonds. Then I cover a pot with crushed crackers with that mix and I spread all of that in a tray that I let in the fridge for one hour. In the meantime, I melt a chocolate bar in boiled cream. With that, I cover the tray that it’s on the fridge and I let it...

Memories

This photo is a reminder of  the great grandfather I had, he was the best! I don’t have very pictures of him, because he didn't like it very much so I keep carefully every single of them. I took this photo with my cellphone very years ago but I can’t remember when exactly. In the picture is my grandfather with a hat and a tie that my brother and my cousin put him while he just let us do it what we want. Like every summer, my brother, my cousin and I went to my grandparents house to spend ours vacations with them. In the nights we used to play cards and share a wonderful moment together, and this photo is about one of those night, a very special one. My grandfather was very special for all of us and since he died of cancer almost six years ago, he used to remember him through pictures like this. I really like this image because is one of my best memories with him, a nice  memory of my childhood and the relation I have with all my family.

Sweet childhood

When I was a child I loved to see tv series. My mother told me that I liked very much “The rugrats”, specially the character of ‘Carlitos’. I even had I little toy of this personage that, according to my mom, I always had to have with me. A few years later, I used to sit in the living room with my brother and watch “Dragon Ball” and “Detective Conan”. This series are a very important part of my childhood because I used to see them with my two brothers and we talked about it all day. In the actually I sometimes watch the movies of “Conan”, because this serie is still in emission and every year a new film is release. In my childhood, I also used to see “Tom and Jerry” in the weekends. Sometimes, my aunt come to my house and watch this serie with me and my twin brother. Despite seeing all these series, my favorite tv serie is “The simpsons”. I love this serie and I watch it always. Even I grow up, the tv series never stopped liking me. Today I used to watch anime and old series,...

Technology in my life

Imagen
The technology it is more than a telephone, a computer or a television. Even if today those objects are considered as synonyms of technology. My favorite piece of technology is more old, traditional and transversal: a pen. This little object with which we can write, draw and express our feelings in a paper. I feel connect with the pen since I learned to used. I love it because it provides me of a freedom of language that I can used when I want and how I wanted.  And I referee to every kind of language: the music, the drawings, the writing. The characteristics of a pen have not been appreciated, and I am really think that even the most simple and small object can do amazing things if the person that it used know how to do it.

Dreams and careers

Imagen
When I was a child I dreamed of being a teacher or a writer. I never thought of being a journalist, but I am, right now, studying journalism. Before deciding, I thought I could study philosophy or literature, and maybe then do the degree in pedagogy.  But, just when I had to apply for the university, I realized I don´t really want to be a teacher for the rest of my life. In that moment, I knew that I want to work on something where I had to be informed of what happen, a job that seems that I am studying constantly. Because I love learning something new every day. I don't regret of my choice. I have known great people and I have learned a lot in a world that is very different of high school, and that is amazing.  For my love of writing, I want to work in newspappers or in communication studies and research.

Me in 120 words

In 1997, my brother and I borned in little hospital in Santiago. I grow up in a beautiful, lovely and united family, even since my parents got divorced, 9 years ago. While my dad lives in Chicago, United States, I live in Santiago with my older brother, my twin and my mom. My mom loves the stranges names. She wanted that my brothers and I had originals names, so she named us Yassef (my older brother), Yerom (my twin) and Yamitza (me). With my family, I traveled to several cities of the north and south of Chile. I really love to know new places. Since I was a child, I like to write and read every kind of books. That passionate almost made me study philosophy, but I ended studying journalism, because I think is great to be informed of what is happening at every moment. Although, I promise myself that one day I will do a course of philosophy.
