Post 5: A Photograph I like

I chose this photograph because I love all that it means. It was taken in October last year, in the "social outbreak" or popular revolt in Chile. It shows "Plaza Italia" (or Plaza de la Dignidad, called like this by people), full of people, with fire and smoke around them. This revolution started because Chilean people were had enough of the injustices, bad education, nad health service, low pensions, unmet basic needs and bad quality of life in general. I think that it is very important that people express their opinion and fight for a better life because our government is useless and corrupt. I really hope that in the future, after this pandemic, the revolt comes back stronger to get real changes like the approval for a new constitution. The police repress people and their liberties, and I think that this makes me so angry because in dictatorship, my grandfather was arrested and was a tortured political prisoner. I just hope that never happens again.

Post 4: My best friend

My friends are very important to me. They are my support and my happiness. Now it is a little different because we are at university and we have less time and now with the pandemic we can't see each other. Also, now we study in different cities. We are 7, but my best friend is called Melani. I met her in 2015 in our first year of high school, and both of us were new in the school. We stared talking because we had the same cellphones. Since that moment, we were inseparable. We graduated from the school in 2018 and both of us had a "sabbatical year". Now, both of us entered at University of Chile, but me in chemistry and pharmacy and she in occupational therapy, at school of medicine. It is so funny because both of us must live in Santiago now (we're from V region). She's a really nice person and I love her. I hope that our friendship lasts forever.
