My Favorite Piece of Technology

I think my favorite electronic device is my cell phone, and maybe also my computer.  I think you can do a lot of useful things with a cell phone, even as much as with a computer. For example, sometimes I prefer to read a pdf on my cell phone rather than on my computer, or sometimes I prefer to print from my cell phone. So it's a very useful tool for day-to-day use. 

The "story" of this cell phone is strange, my mother found it on the bus and passed it to me, I "fixed" it and kept it. I have always been good at losing cell phones, one day one was stolen in Estación Central.I lost another one jumping over a fence to get to the bus stop. 

I've never been much of a cell phone shut-in, although lately it helps me a lot to check things out and keep up to date, read pdfs, watch something of interest, etc.

    Hi Dorian ! How interesting your mobile story, it's certainly quite strange.

    Hello Dorian! I also have bad luck.

    My grandmother used to say that "Losing your cell phone's like losing your mind". She was very bright and wise.

    It`s true, you can do many things with the cell phone, they are very useful, without them we would get very bored. How lucky your mom is to have found one, it's always good to have a spare.

    Oh Dorian! Your cell phone story is so unique, and your mother is so lucky to have found it in the public locomotion. I wish I had the same luck in my life!
    Also, the cell phone is a really useful device, like you said; It's comfortable to use it, it's easy to transport (in your pocket, maybe), it's light weight, and more things.

    I understand you, Dorian, I also tend to lose and neglect my cell phone a lot, until today my phone has already been stolen twice, but hey, nothing in the world is perfect

4. TIME TRAVEL TO THE FUTURE

Time travel is a dilemma for modern science, and seems to be more of a fantasy that is kept alive as the possibility of something unknown and new. The interesting thing about time travel is, perhaps, to satisfy an inner need or desire to know beyond what is humanly possible, to know what is going to happen, to witness it and perhaps to live it. Perhaps it is just the fantasy of an increasingly technological world, with newer things, that satisfy that fantasy of cyber and networks implanted by the spectacle and popular culture. be that as it may, time travel exists, even if only at the level of an idea. Its usefulness, far from the practical function behind the concept of "travel", is no more than imagining virtual scenarios with the possibility of being , in the case of travel into the future, or simply the possibility of never having been , in the case of travel into the past. In any case, if time travel is possible I would like to travel into the future a considerable numbe...

5. CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME

When I think about possible changes or reforms that my career should undergo, I first think about the quantitative-qualitative dichotomy, a major contradiction. It is common to enter the world of research, whatever it may be, and to be confronted with the methodological bifurcation that weighs on the research paradigms; immediately the aim is to eliminate the dichotomy in the first semesters, but later in the career, the specific subjects exacerbate the disjunctive, giving special priority to the focus of the field. This is the contradiction, an empty effort to destroy the idea that quantitative and qualitative are mutually exclusive, and then proceed to teach the opposite. Really, it's just a question I don't understand about the race and I think it doesn't make a lot of sense. It's certainly something that could be done better, I don't know exactly in what way, but it could be.  Another thing I would change, are the absurd amounts of academic load (of any career i...

6. ENGLISH LANGUAGE CHALLENGES

Before entering university I had very little to do with English, so when thinking about my academic future I never contemplated the idea of having English. It is as if my brain voluntarily and unconsciously decided to ignore the subject. That is why the English test that measures the level of command of the language took me by surprise, I saw that I had to take it and I did not think much about it and I started the test at the same moment. I didn't even manage to answer all the questions, and half (or maybe more) of the ones I answered were random. Now that I am here, I have the feeling that I know a little more English than before, maybe I learned more this semester than last semester. Without a doubt, having English in person is very different from having it online, in a way the physical space and the pressure of being in person pressures us to learn in one way or another. In this sense, it is good to have the feeling of having learned something even when I didn't feel like d...
