Santiago after the Bicentenario weekend

After a dizzying welcome to the Bicentenario. The best place to rest and relax is my private retreat: that is my garden´s house.

In Spring this place becomes very quite and filled with light and color, the sun is nice and warm, the grass is soft and thick and various flowers begin to flourish.

I think it is especial because it’s beautiful and my friends really enjoy being there.

When I am with my friends we like to lay down on the grass, sometimes play cards or do some exercise. At night we light some candles and have a glass of good wine. After the celebrations we use the coal left over to prepare grilled meat. When I am alone this place is the best place to study, get a sun tan, play whit my pets or simply take a nap.

This year my garden was the perfect place to spend time with my best friend, she came to visit me from Antofagasta and we spend a lot of time catching up and laughing.

Every year, I fix my garden to receive the spring. I have done it for the past five years, because is a great location to do some nice get together.

I always recommend staying at home especially if you have a favorite corner, if you don’t have a place like that maybe go to a park, because the important thing is to relax, get in contact with nature and be calm and prepared to face the rest of the year with the best attitude.

The future of states universities in Chile

I have no clue about the privatization problem, from my point of view, as a student of Universidad de Chile, the future is unclear. I feel like I´m enrolled in a private institution rather than state university, because I pay for my education. The fee is very expensive, I can´t apply for student loans, because both of my parents work and they own their house.
If you ask me, there´s no free college education, it just doesn´t exist. Therefore I think privatization has been imposed in our state university system, but It`s hidden.
The state university system should be free for all people. The solution is joining forces to fight, but a radical and intelligent fight. This objective should unite different ways of thinking and allow us to act quickly before this problem gets worst
Definitely, I think this government will privatize the Universidad de Chile, because our president is a big businessman, his interest is the economy and get along with other entrepreneurs. Everything is for sale… That´s scary!!!
The only thing that can save us, would be if the president made a promise to keep universities from being privatized the same way it occurred with Punta de Choros.
