 I like this photograph because I love the sea, it’s so beautiful the color of the coral and the contrast between them.

I would like to scuba dive someday too, I think that would be so funny and a good new expirience. 



I like this photo because it’s so cute, the bears are amazing and the bear cub is so lovely and furry.
They look so happy and the photo exude a lot of love and tenderness. Although the north pole is cold they look very warm. 

 

When I saw this photo I thought it was so perfect, that’s why i liked it. It is very simetric. The hummingbird it is in a perfect position. I love the combinations of colors between the bird and the flower.






Video > Animals



I like very much this video, because these animals look so adorable, cute and social. I would like to caress them, I know that these animals are undomesticated and that’s the reason why I like them so much, because they’re out of the ordinary.


This video is about a pharaoh cuttlefish pretending to be a hermit crab and I think is amazing how this creature use this mechanism to hunt small fish and also for defense. I have never seen something like that.

What is my opinion about...?

What is your opinion about  climate change?
The climate change it hurts me a lot. The humans, including me, are destroying the earth and this is the place where we live so I can’t believe how we can destroy it like we are doing it.

What is your opinion about fortune telling?
I don’t believe in that, but it makes me curious what they can say me or if this can tell me something that could be true, however I think that the people that do this, only say word ramdomly. 

What is your opinion about “barras bravas”?
I hate Barras bravas, I think this people is kind of cavemen, because they always have trouble, they are so fanatic and violent, I think that someone should tell them that football is just a game. 

What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?
I think that the government have to legalize the marijuana, because is a very good drugs, if you give it a good use, It help to relax and relieve pain.


What is your opinion about recycling?
Recycle is the best thing that you can do in this moment for our earth, mostly the plastic, because is so bad for the planet, it delay too much time in biodegrade.

Why do I want to be a vet?

When I was a child, I wasn't had a dream job, I always love the area of health care, but I didn’t know what to be. I just decided at the last year of high school that I wanted to be a vet, but I also thought to be a nurse or an obstetrician.

When my rabbit was sick, I always had to take her to the vet and then I realized that this is job is so passionate and I wanted to have this job. Obviously also the fact that I love the animals in general. I want to help the animals to be better. I like so much the horses, rabbits, dogs, cats, minor species in general, ect. This is my passion. I also love the biology that is why I always love the area of health care, because is so much biology.

I think my experience in university until now has been a good experience, I meet new Friends and I like the departament so much. I like the farm of the university and the simple fact that I always can go to see the animals there.

In the future I want to have my own clinic and specialize in exotic animals, but also could be surgery.

A Photograph I like

This picture was captured by a photographer that was there in the park taking photos. Is a recent picture. In this photograph you can see to my family and my dog, that was the last walk of my dog, because he was detect with a lymphatic cancer and he die two week later. I like it because that was a happy moment because my dog was happy and it make me content have given this last moment to my Pinky. His death affected me a lot and still affect me, only one month has passed since that day and I miss him so much. But I try to remind him like you can see in this picture. It has been very difficult to overcome his death, but he suffered a lot and now he is so much better in a better place without pain. In this picture he was happy with his family who loved and will love him forever.
