- Why did I decide to become a veterinarian? Well, it's such a long story. When I was in High School, my favourite subject wase Biology. When I finished, at the very last moment, before I had to decide my career, I chose Veterinary. In the beginning, I had the idea that animals were usually the most defenceless beings and I like to be helpful for them in the future. Even so, while studying, I got to undertand Veterinary degree goes beyond. For that, the Veterinary motto is "Hygia Pecoris, Salus Populi". This a Latin expression which means that caring for animal health helps the whole population. In other words. Its importance resides in public health, and in this field, you can help everyone fighting against health challenges and food fraud. I like this concept a lot because working as a public servant is, at the end of the day, the best way to keep people safe. As time passes, I know I changed my mind. At this moment, I feel I could achieve my task by working for higher purposes in the Administration. In conclusion, this just a light idea of the personal travel I have done so far. This is the reason I decided to leave the clinic activities, to stop taking care of pets, and set off on this new exciting experience.November 7, 201860
- Are community services working better than fines? In the last few years, felonies haven't been punished by fines but community services. These alternatives punishment might be more efficient than economic penalties for many reasons: In the first term, criminals would learn, by their effort, the importance of their transgressions. Furthermore, they would work for the community and their sentence could represent a positive aspect for the society. For example, they could work improving services such as street cleaning and public gardens care. Secondly, if we force criminals to do these works by a court, they could talk about their experiences. In this way, other people could learn the risks of making criminal actions and would avoid it as well. For instance, community services are suitable in cases of driving felonies. In these cases, the experiences of driver lawbreakers would aware other drivers. On the other hand, there are many people that claim for harder punishments and this measures might be weak for them. That's because of service works might exist only for few unimportant crimes. In conclusion, even though criminals would be paying their lawsuits, this way of sanction is only appropriate in a few numbers of cases. And, in any case, it will not replace usual alternatives such as fines and jail penalties.October 8, 201840
- Ageing population. Whats changes does it bring to today's society? In our society, people live longer and longer but this may be a problem in the immediate future. Ageing of the population would bring problems on the NHS system financing, and increase its costs due to it larger use. Caring elder people will be an important field in which our countries will spend a lot of money. Whereas, if the number of births decreases, in the future workers will not be enough for supporting the system. Because of these facts, we might design a policy that makes sustainable the future of paying our elder people pensions. One of these alternatives would be an "active retire", a hybrid way in which our senior population continue working for a few hours per day, earning money and paying a reduced amount to the NHS system. On the other hand, if we consider keeping our senior population retired, we would have other alternatives such as special taxes that allowing the State to take money enough for making a stable system for future generations. In conclusion, our society will deal with problems in the short time that would be faced in many different ways, but they still are challenging for us.October 8, 201820
- The first day after the holidays. One week ago I was excited. I've planned my vacation days and I really felt that I had enough time for doing everything. Now I'm sitting in front of my work computer and I feel like I wasted my days doing anything. I don't know the reason why I perceive it. In these days I have enjoyed the long summer days in my hometown in Spain, and I appreciated the fresh water of the river in the valley where I used to live. But it was not enough. In the city, there are not mountains, fresh water of the river or green fields, but only pollution and hurry. Is not longer summer, it was the city that stole it. No, it's not that. I liked my town and my life before these days off. Maybe this place is not so horrible, and this feeling is just what some people know as post-holiday blues.August 14, 201830
- A continent made of plastic The consumerism draws an uncertain future. Our natural resources are finite and, in addition, there is a phenomenon of global warming and environmental pollution that make harder our survival on this world. According to the studies in 2050, there will be more plastic wastes in the ocean than fish. This represents a huge problem which we need to solve in the next few years. The problem of trowing plastics in the ocean has produced a giant island on the Pacific Ocean, made basically of garbage. This island represents an important problem for the wildlife and oceanic animals, including birds which eat the plastic material, and death by that cause. On the other hand, consumerism lifestyle has made possible an increase in the world economy which has enabled that middle-class has grown in the last century. This fact provides the population with better living conditions and welfare status, which are very positive aspects. In conclusion, we need to solve wasteful spending problems and make the consumption more suitable to the finite sources of our planet if we really want to conserve the environment and our welfare status.

Acabo de ver una película llamada << No estoy loca >> y yo solo puedo decir que no estaba (aguardando eso) Esperando eso Lloré ... mucho. No, no fue porque fue una (pelíca) película mala jaja. Fue porque el año pasado tuve una experiencia como que de la protagonista. (Estaba esperando) esperaba reír porque la es una comedia pero lo qué pasó fue mucho mejor.A veces siento como estoy sola en el mundo especialmente porque sufro de la enfermedad mental. Aunque yo sé que hay muchas personas como yo, mi ansiedad me dice otras cosas, así que generalmente prefiero estar sola.
Lo puede ver? El ciclo? (no comprendo muy bien la frase) Todos, incluso si no padecen una enfermedad mental, a menudo no pueden verse o su situación claramente. Eso fue el problema de Carolina, la protagonista. Y (para mi) el mío también. El año pasado cuando mi de cuenta de que (necesité quear) necesitaba quereme a mi misma y eligir ser feliz mi tratamiento fue mejor.
Esta película me ayudó recordar que no tengo que estar avergonzada sobre mi pasado y que la oscuridad es solo una ausencia de luz. Si puedo encender una luz en mi vida siempre habrá esperanza. Las películas son arte, y el arte puede ayudarnos entender y lidiar con las cosas que experimentamos en la vida.
Nunca sé qué quiero decir cuando estoy tratando usar un idioma extranjero pero espero que puedan entenderme.
En resumen, esta película fue una agradable sorpresa. Realmente la disfrute. <3
0 votedAugust 6, 20182- Red tide in the Mexican Gulf Today, on CNN.com, I read a new about red tide and how it is affecting wildlife in the Mexican Gulf. If you don't know what's red tide, I am going to try to explain to you what is the cause that products this phenomenon and its problems. In the first place, we are going to talk about the origin of the red tide: The red tide is caused by some microscopical algae that spring up when the conditions of water are favourable, this occurs suddenly after climatological events such as storms and hurricanes. These situations raise nutrients from the deeper ocean that have been used by the algae. The combination of nutrients and warm temperatures makes grow the microscopical algae and, in during their biological cycle, they produce toxins that spread to the water. Eventually, the toxins can be harmful to fish and other animals, causing the death of thousands of these. In the second place, there are some economic and health consequences. If we take into consideration that fish couldn't be eaten by humans, fishers and industry can't continue carrying out their activities, then they lose money. But, just in the case that they don't care about red tide, the problem could be still biggest. There are many risks in eating contaminated fish and mussels by humans. In conclusion, the red tide is a very important matter with no solution that involves a huge part of society. For this reason is important to detect the situation before it becomes a large public health problem.August 3, 201800
