I ❤ my laptop computers

My favourite piece of technology is the laptop computer, actually I have two laptops, the first and the oldest one is my pink SONY VAIO, this laptop is a mini notebook, I got it since 2013, it's broken but it's still works, in this laptop I keep a lot of photos and videos (trips, friends, birthdays, xmas, etc.). My second laptop computer is a HP notebook, I bought it last year because I needed a new one to the university (in my career we have to use a lots of computational programs like ENVI, R, ARCGIS. Google Earth).  I love my laptops because It let me save my photos and videos on it, see tv series and movies in NETFLIX, listen music in SPOTIFY, do my written works for the college and use social networks like FACEBOOK, WHATSAPP and TWITTER. I use its every day at least 2 hours so I couldn't live without its. 

Readers: Let me now if I made a mistake in this text, please, and thank you for your comments.

Why did I decide to study Renewable Natural Resources?




When I was a little girl I used to read the scientific magazines that came with the newspapers, I collected volumes about dinosaurs, Egyptian history, the universe and the animal world, I always liked watching the National Geographic, History Channel and Animal Planet, I still see these Channels along with my dad. When I was in high school I knew that I wanted to study something related to mathematics such as industrial or commercial engineering, a year before I graduated from school, I took a course in Economics and Business at the Summer School of the Universidad de Chile, at that time I realized that business was not my thing. Halfway through my senior year, I still didn't know which career to choose, I was in a difficult situation because I wanted to make a right decision because as we know, colleges are too expensive to make a mistake in choosing a career. In the middle of the year a university fair visited my school, there I found a stand about Forestry Engineering at the Universidad de Chile, where I was given a brochure with the information of the carrer, later, arriving at my house, I researched in Internet more about Forestry Engineering, I wasn't convinced because from my point of view, this engineering had a limited labor field, it was at that moment that I looked at the left side of the website and found a link of the career "Renewable Natural Resources" , I clicked it, I read the information and I realized that it was what I really wanted to study. Later that year, I joined Greenpeace as an activist volunteer, where I reaffirmed my vocation to help planet Earth. At the end of the senior year I did the PSU, I was selected in the career and this is how I am now in the fourth year of the  Renewable Natural Resources at the Universidad de Chile.
