My dream job.

Deciding what major I wanted to study was very difficult for me, because there were too many options, although I knew that numbers were my thing, that I couldn't imagine working in an office and that the area of science that I liked the least was biology. After thinking about it too much, I chose Chemistry, a major that I am currently studying, since it met everything I was looking for at that time.

When I graduate, I would like to start working in industries, specifically in the area of ​​quality control, either as an analytical chemist or as a laboratory head.  Although I haven't decided on what type of industry yet, for now my options are;  cosmetics, food and pharmaceutical.

I am lucky that people close to me work in drug analysis laboratories and I have been able to visit them on several occasions, so I more or less know what the ambient is like. For this type of work, different skills are needed, for example, analytical and error detection skills, organization, leadership, precision in analysis, initiative, willingness to work as a team, among many others.

Although a newly graduated chemist does not receive a very high salary, years of experience increase it considerably.

Coldplay is a British pop-rock band, with more than 20 years of career and has Chris Martin as vocalist.

The concert was quite interesting, since the focus of the tour was sustainability and inclusion. It had solar panels, a kinetic dance floor and electric bicycles to generate energy for his show's audio and lights. Also, the led bracelets used by the public were compostable. In order for people with partial hearing to have the possibility to enjoy music, vests were available that increased the intensity of the vibrations.

People of all ages were seen at the event and there was a lot joy in the atmosphere. The visual spectacle was wonderful and I found that I knew their discography better than I thought.

I don't consider myself a Coldplay fan, but after that day I have a lot of respect for him.

Changes to my study programme.

I wish I could say that I like my study program, but unfortunately that is not the case.  If I could I would make several changes. The first...
