My travel to USA

In this blog I’m going to talk about my travel to USA. In April 23 th my mom told me that we were going to travel to Disney world, so we took the fly and when we arrived in New York my uncle and my aunt were waiting for us at the airport, that day I met my cousins Frank and Rose Mary. After a week I discovered that we were not going to Disney world but also I discovered that we were going to live in that place for ever… that was shocking.  After two months my mom enrolled me in school…  I really hated school because I did not understand anything but when the days passed I met some friends… From that moment on I began to enjoy school. One of my favourites days was Halloween because I really love caramels but that was not like movies because the time to collect candies was controlled by the police (because of the incident with the twin towers) … that day I dressed as cowgirl. when I had already gotten used to everything they said we would return to Chile ... and it...

My favourite class

In this blog I’m going to talk about my favourite class of the semester… “El químico farmacéutico y su acción” in this class we saw the labor of the pharmacist, I liked this class because it is the pure essence of my college career… the teachers in charge of this class showed us the different areas in which pharmacists can work, the class was divided into four topics: discussion session, informative talks, pharmaceutical terminology and visits of specialized areas.

Informative talks, in this session in these sessions were invited professionals from the different areas in which pharmacist can exercise and they told us their school and professional experiences. Pharmaceutical terminology: in this class professors teach us a small part of the chemical technical langua...

In this blog i am going to talk about Alexander Fleming. He was a London scientist who was born in Dervel, Scotland. (1881-1955), also he was a doctor who worked in London, after that he worked like a military doctor in France, in this job he was stunned by infections caused by bullets, for this reason he decided once the war was finished he would return to seek a new antiseptic. It is said that all discoveries of alexander were a coincidence, for example the lysine, he found this in the middle of a gangrene research at the same way he found the penicillin in 1928 at age of 48 years old. I like the job of Alexander because he found a cure for the infections which were one of main causes of death in those years. Some of the diseases cured by penicillin are tuberculosis, bacterial pneumonia, rheumatic fever among others. It was revolution on the health area because with penicillin the life expectancy was increase a lot Alexander won a Nobel Prize for the discovery of penicill...
