In my opinion, the most significant milesone for the human evolution is the control of fire because that provided a new tool with several uses-including cooking which led to a fundamental change in the early human diet. early humans probably gathered around campfires to socialize to find comfort an warmth to share food and information and to find safety from predators.

My Life's Main Events

I was born in Santiago Chile. I am the youngest of 5 children, in other words, the baby of the house haha. My parents are called Jose and Susana and my brothers are called Jose, Paulette, Fabían and Gabriel.

That year I started going to school. I think the only thing I remember is the desire to go back to sleep that I felt in the morning when I got up :( today I still feel the same haha

December 2012
That year I met my cat Azúcar. My brother found him in the street and together we helped him to heal, because he had a wound on one of his front legs. Now he is very well, he is the laziest cat that exists in the world.

 I introduce my cat asu. As always, is sleeping.

July 2013
In that year I began to study in the school José Joaquin Prieto from the second semester. I think it's an important date because at the previous school I had bad experiences. From day one, I began to meet wonderful people who helped me a lot, with whom I have a beautiful friendship to this day.

 Here i am with my best friends on the beach <3

September 2013 
On September 4 we lost my dog sasha. It was a very sad moment because sasha was beautiful and we loved her very much. We all cry. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if she were still here:(

July 2014 

This date is very important because my nephew Benjamin was born. He is the only nephew and grandson of our family, so, for now, he is the favorite and receives all our love. I think he's the cutest kid in the world, he's perfect! <3 

                                                                                                                                                                He is Benjamin. I love his eyes<3

November 2015

On this date, I finished my school days. It was a very emotional day, I felt happy and sad at the same time. I could realize the affection they felt for me, my teachers and classmates.

March 2016

I started to study Veterinary Medicine. Since I was little I wanted to study it, so it made me really happy to know that I started to fulfill my dream.

CA3

> Activity 2.- Select 2 SHOWS that attract your attention. In two lines for each show, tell me why you want to watch these shows.

Show 1:My cat from hell
 I chose this show because  i really like cats and in this program you can see all the things that define cats and that make us love them: their outbursts, indifference and their madness that sometimes make us be surpised.

Show 2: The world's oddest animal couples 
This program attract my attention because shows relationships between animals of different species and i think that is very beautiful because they don't care about the specie, they only give their love and friendship to whoever need it.

Show 3: Meet the sloths 
I would love to see this program because i really love the sloths because they are lazy and slow and i think that i feel identified haha Also i think that the program shows people that save sloths and i would like that too.

Show 4: Monsters inside me  
This program attracted my attention because it shows stories about people who contracted some rare disease, including interviews with these people and with doctors. I would like to know more about these infectious diseases.

My favourite object

My favourite object is my bed. This can be very obvious, but yes, i couldn't live without it.
I don't remember when i got it, but maybe it was a few years ago. I just remember that my parents gave me the bed.
I use my bed all the time: obviously to sleep, also i use it when i have to study for some test, (although this isn't a good idea because i always fall asleep), also i use it when simply i want to do nothing or use my cellphone or computer to see series or movies. I even eat on the bed, although also is a bad idea because i leave all dirty :(
I love my bed and i chose it as my favourite thing because i find peace in it, it is my personal space where i can relax, i can be alone with my thoughts and principally because a can sleep in it. I love sleep or simply lie down on my bed. For all these reasons, my life without my bed would be awful.

Videos of Animals

Video 1: Friends forever

i adore all the animals and for this reason i really love this kind of videos! Because they don't care the difference of species or breeds, they are very different from humans and that's what i like about them, The animals only dedicated to give and express their love. <3

Video 2: Cat logic                                                                                                                               

I really like this video, it's very funny XD. I have 3 cats and all this is true, they do the most inappropriate things and the funniest thing is that it seems that they are proud to do them. But well, this is one of the interesting things about cats :3 

Video 3: Raccoon <3                                                                                                                      

I always see videos of raccoons, i really like them, but i've never seen one :( In this simple video you can see the tenderness of raccoon, he wants play with the cat and i think it's so cute! I want to have one :(  

My opinions

What is your opinion about owning an exotic pet?

In my opinion, owning an exotic pet can be difficult because they eat special foods and also need a different care to common pets. Also, maybe can be difficult find a vet specialized in the care of these animals. Still, i think that owning an exotic pet is beautiful and interesting because they are very lovely and nice.

What is your opinion about violence on television?

About the violence on television, in the movies, i think that it's not bad,because it's only fiction but when a child see constantly movies with violence, i think it can be dangerous because at that age, the child can think it's normal and good. Is the same with the violence in the news (but it isn't fiction). Parents should be careful about their children watch.

What is your opinion about tatoos?

In my opinion, the tatoos are only a way that people use to express their tastes and ideas and i like them. I think the people who have tatoos look good, but personally i prefer the small tatoos. I think that should not be prejudice about the people who have them, because have tatoos not define the person.

What is your opinion about killing stray dogs?

I think killing stray dogs it's very bad because it isn't the solution to the ploblem that, in fact, people have caused. In my opinion, the only solution is teach to children, since early years to take care of animals because they also feel and need and deserve love.

What is your opinion about “barras bravas”?

I don't like the football but i think it's a healthy sport, but in my opinion the "barras bravas" ruin the football because constantly only act violently, as if they don't care football. They act as if they don't think!
