Am I gonna have a job in the future?


Three years ago, when I entered to study journalism, I did it because I wanted to be a sports commentator, going to Olympics Games or FIFA World Cup (I loved football [soccer]).
But, the years came by, and I concluded that this job is VERY DISRESPECTFUL. And football is too.

This change became "my disenchantment age" or so to speak, I said to myself: "When I graduate, I'll sell skate shoes in Vans, or other shops with the same style".

I didn't know what to do. I thought that the future was unsure, unknown. In fact, until the last year, I didn't see anything. I couldn't see myself  in five years, I didn't have anything. However, I was relatively happy

Fortunately, during this year, I see myself working in something concrete: Cameraman. All thanks to some friends in the fifth year (of Journalism) and RadioJGM. But, as cameraman, i don't have future projects or future travels.

Side note; I'm studying journalism, and I don't like it. It's f'cking bullsh't , miserable. Specially the men in journalism, those who talk about football. I think our job it's poorly evaluated, because our colleagues don't make a good example . They are mediocre, and at the end, we have to carry this stigma.

I'm sorry, but I'm very disenchanted with this carreer. Luckily, someone with a journalism degree could be a photographer, an expert in communication, an investigator, a language teacher, a cameraman, etc. I'd be happy if I become a cameraman and earn six hundred thousand chilean pesos per month.

    Media journalism is hard to swallow for us, future journalists and collegues to those others who doesn't care the way they communicate the news. Unfortunately, to the audiences they're the face of "the truth" or "truthful information", with no regards if their speech it's sexist or diminishes women, ethnic groups, or sexual diversities, specially the "sports specialized journalists".

I've failed to myself

WELCOME TO MY REQUIEM If I have improved something is my own way of going to classes because the one thing I want from this subject is to approve. At the start of the semester I was in an enormous existencialist trouble and one part of the problem was that I was living in Melipilla, far far away. It was very complicated to take the bus, the two hours of travel a day was exhausting. And well,  that easily meant four absences. Besides, I am working for RadioJGM during thursdays. I'm the cameraman of a TV program named "Cajita de Música". That meant three or four more absences. In fact, my absences prove my interest in the english class is non-existent. I just wanna approve. The english class had funny moments like talking about Pearl Jam, Trainspotting or Ireland and its meadows but in general, it isn't inspirational. When I registered myself in this class, I did it for one reason: "salir del cacho". But I look at my assistance and I feel that I failed. Besi...

Speaking About Dish and Cooking

I have two favourite foods: Pastel de Choclo and chickpeas with longaniza. This summer my mother taught me  the preparation of Pastel de Choclo. Of course, i ate a lot of this, in fact,  I carried Pastel de Choclo to my (actual ex) girlfriend and atet together while we watched TV series. It's nostalgic. Until recently, i didn't like cooking because i thought that was ridiculous "lose a lot of time and eat about ten minutes". However, now that I'm living alone, I’ve had time to cook: I learnt to cook rice with peas boiled simultaneously and a drop of linseed. The food that i usually eat in university, are currently  vegetarian foods, like soy burgers and vegetarian empanadas (that contain quinoa and mushrooms). Any favourite restaurant? I believe that Fuente Mardoqueo is a good restaurant, specialized in sandwiches with different types of barbecued steaks. Another place is Insert Coin . Its drinks are very good: refined, exotic and original. And also y...

Postgraduate or Another Career?

Imagen
There was a time in 2015 when i had a vocational crisis, (I even  thought about leaving this career), these careers were brought to my attention: Arts, Architecture, Graphic Design, Politics, Zoology, Latin American Studies, Arabian Studies, Geography, and maybe after, a PhD in any of these degrees or learn German, Dutch or Irish Gaelic languages. Any place to study?: In Chile, University of Chile or University of Santiago. Out of Chile, any of the greatest universities in Germany, Netherlands or Ireland. In Latin America, Uruguay could be a good place. I don't like the E-learning (distance learning), because i feel that you don't have the campus experience. Specially, I would like to study in a normal schedule, like currently, not part-time or whatever its name is. However, the only way to do this, is if you're a millionaire, because the universities in Chile or Europe are very expensive. Besides, when you are graduated, you can't submit to grants. In fact, I'm s...
