More than one life

                    When I was a child, like 6 years old, my father was working on a computer, and I was like watching him everyday he were doing it. Months passed before he decided to buy a new one, so for me it was like, "oh, maybe he is gonna give me the one that he is working on now and he is gonna use the new one", and well, it was like that. In those days I didn't know how to use a computer so one of my cousins bring me some games to install them on the new PC, one of the these games was "the emperador y sus locuras" the first game I played.
                                                                                                       

(My first game)

                                                     
 And at this moment I started playing on PC, the more valued device that I have on my life. My father was very interested about this games because on his childhood he didn't have a computer or something like that, so he was buying me more games for the PC, and it was like, "oh better for me", my childhood games were too much, all with those graphics like polygons, now most of the new games are more focused on realistic graphics.

(Venice from Assassins Creed II)

Nowadays I use my computer for all need, like studying, playing, cooking (watching tutorials of ow to make Chinese food), etc. I estimate that the use of my computer is the same as breathing, obviously I go out with my friends, I'm not nailed to my chair so I can move around the city; but the computer for me means more than a piece of metal, I've played lots of games that send me to other places like Venice, China, The Caribbean, places that one day I wanna visit (especially Venice). I've learned about too many historic things, world vision, ethical problems, and a lot of psychological things that if I didn't have my PC maybe my judgment of things would be another one.

Why did you choose your career?

     

       
            Making decisions have always been a big problem on our lifes, when I was a child, I didn't think about "decisions" because I was a child of course, nothig really matters for me on that age so, my mind was only focused on games and food. aproximately at 8 years old I started to think on what would I like to be, medicine, builder, pilot, and well, more wierd stuff like astrounaut and paleontologist.
   
       
          When I finished the 12°grade at school, there were four options that I liked, Medical technology, Pharmacy, Medicine and Marine Biology, well, medicine was like some points far away from my points so I said goodbye; after some internal meditations I finally decided to enter on Pharmacy, it mixes the helping part of medicine, and the research part of making new medicines. When I started the career at march, I was thinking about how it will be evolving through the years, but until now, I like it, always having atention about the new complications that can be presented on the years coming.


         And in what kind of job I would like to be, well, all relationed with the heatlh area makes me feel happy, maybe working on a hospital, maybe serving on a pharmacy, or even if I can climb at the top, being the administrator of it.

Getting to know each other

            Rubén Andrés Vélez Hernández....., have you ever heared that name ? I suppose you don't, so I will tell you some things about me. There is a man, and a woman that make my existence possible.

            My father was born in Arica, the Nortest city on Chile, beautiful by the way; so after some years living on that city he travelled to Iquique to work on a printing house located on the center of the city, 4 years passed before my father meet my mother, she was born on Iquique, "land of champions" they use to say in the sport boom of the city, well another pretty place to visit if you have plans for some holidays.

             It was the year 1999 when I appear on this world, on April exactly, so since this year I was living on that city, Im the only son of my parents, It's difficlut to say if it's good or not, but for me it's ok, more food for me. I studied on Academia Iquique all my life, before the university of course, after giving the PSU I start to study on university (Universidad de chile), its a very hard change that I make, leaving the desert behind and giving the welcome to a diferent landscape.

             Its difficult to live on another city like 6 times bigger than your native was, but I dont care too much about that, trying to think positive all the time, and making some mockups about tanks and airplanes as a way to clear my mind.

             Have a nice day !!!
