Finding a job

Find a job a lot of time is a difficult situation. This involve different situations, you have first to find the job, a lot of times you have to pass different proofs and you have to have experience, among other things.

I said last week that I didn’t had an ideal job, is very difficult to me think about it, what I’m going to do in the future,  but I know that work is an important part of our lives, because we like it or not, we need to live with some money. So, find a work that I like, with all the things I wrote last week, and plus that it give me money to live, would be a very good thing.

How I wrote last week, I’m studying archaeology. If I think in two years more, when I suppose to finish it, I think I’m not have a lot of experience, but it make in the practice! so I can go to teacher projects to learn more. A problem to find jobs sometime are that there is no so many field available, especially if we realize that since last year the career (and other universities) grow the annual quota to study it, so the employment field going to be smaller. I don’t know so much about the work test requirements to work as archaeologist. In any case, I would like to work in different places, a job let me travel and be outdoor. 

Ideal job

If you ask me what is my ideal job I'm not very sure if I have an answer exactly for that. I think I don't have "an ideal job" but there are some things I would want to do, and if someone pay me for that, don't be bad.

First, I would like to do something outdoor, I don't really support in close spaces very long time. I am studying archaeology right now, and it let me spend a long time outside, we have to prospect (walk in a space of land watching if you see something may be a remain), and be in the excavation, so it’s not bad for me.

Also, I really want to know new places, so I would like a job that let me travel. But travel knowing the place and the people, not like “business travel” you can see in movies.

Recently I also think I maybe would like to teach something in some moment of my life. I think teach is one of the best things you can do, because it`s not only about “provides” knowledge for someone, but you learn a lot in this process too as a “teacher”. Also, it let you show a lot of things other people don’t know about, showing new things and obviously it happen from student to teacher too. 

Mil tambores

Last weekend I went to Valparaíso with two friends and stayed there for the weekend. We like that city, but we went there for a special reason: it was the "Mil Tambores" carnival. Last year I went with my sisters, and we liked a lot the experience so I wanted to repeat it. We travel from Santiago to Valparaíso on Saturday morning and arrived there almost lunch time. That day we went to a parade in the O’Higgins Hill. We don`t really know a lot the streets and public transport of Valparaíso, but asking you can arrive everywhere! When we were close to the parade we knew it because we started to heard a lot of drums sound, thanks to that we knew where we have to leave the bus. We saw and heard there almost 10 groups of drummers and batucadas, with their dancing groups. All the people who live there came outside of their houses to see all this show of colours and sounds. The next day we woke up with a lot of drums sounds, because the apartment we stayed was just in the same street where the carnival be carried out, so we had a privileged view and position. We stayed in the carnival all day long; we saw and heard a lot of murgas, tinkus, comparsas, tinkus, clowns, people disguised, and dancing groups. We danced and enjoy a lot, we had great time, and next year we plan to go like one of that group in the carnival!
