What´s you favourite piece of technology?

My favorite tecnological item is definately my cell phone. I cant imagine life without it. I wake up with the alarm I have programmed on my phone and if I want to snooze for a few minutes more I press a button and I hace five or ten minutes, depending on how many I have programmed, more in bed. After breakfast I browse through my messages and check to see if my daughter's teacher has asked for any extra materials, once this is done I go to my other whatsups and see if anything important is going down through out the day. If I need a taxi, urgently, all I have to do is go to my app and order one. Sometimes lunch is going to be late so my mum gets me to order something cheap and according to her nutritios. I can get in touch with just about anyone in the world without having to pay a penny more for the call thanks to WhatsApp. Everyday I have homework from the university so on the the bus trip home I go on to internet and try to advance as much as posible. My mum tells me when she studied she would have to go to the library to find information . That must have been time consuming and she says cell phones did not exist, now that is something I cannot imagine.

In conclusion life without my cell phone would be ever so much more dificult. By just pressing one or two buttons I can save so much time.

A subject which has currently affected, in great magnitude, the faculty is suicide among the students. This is due to the actual suicide of a workmate and two others that were on the verge of doing the same thing. As often happens in these cases there is hardly any prevention but a lot of talking amongst us once the tragedy has occured. Personally I think not enough importance is given to these cases in Chile, the worst has to happen before anyone takes any action. I remember needing psicological help, mainly because I needed some type of contention and as always there were no hours available in the public health enteties and when I tried to find help within the faculty the waiting list was enormous. I could have had suicidle ideas without any support to avoid them. I dont know if this is the same in other countries but here in Chile its obvious that help is difficult to find. I wish that the depression, words and actions of our workmates were taken more seriously. I

Why I decided to study architecture! This is a   complicated question for me to answer, do I like this career? During my life prior to university I asked myself on many ocasions what i wanted to do with my future or what i wanted to be, there was a time I wanted to be a doctor then i   didnt want to do anything, to tell the truth i had a dificult time deciding on what I wanted to study. I have always liked to read so this played a big role in my decisión, I gave teaching a lot of thought, becoming a lawyer was also an interesting option. One week before the applications I realized I have always liked drawing and history of different countries and I had to choose a career which would allow me to include both of these. Finally I decide on architecture and here I am four years after. After such a long time you would think this was the right choice for me but im still not a hundred percent convinced this is the direction i want to go or if i love what im doing but i have to admit

In architecture inspiration is totally necessary. The best projects have been created on the way to work, whilst you watch tv or by seeing objects on the street. There are moments in which you see a centre piece on a coffee table and you hear   a click in yourhead you have been waiting for, it sounds crazy but thats the way it is with art. When you least expect it you see something with the form of your future project, even the smell of something can generate a good idea. Although nowadays things have changed, the need for imagination is no longer that important because inspiration and good ideas can be found on internet.  In my personal experience, during my first year of university, one doesnt know the short cuts you can take so as to reduce your work load and physical stress. The most dificult part of architecture is thinking of what to do, I remember having spent whole nights awake with this dilema. I would like to make it clear that I havent stopped thinking or creating bu
