A person with four names

I met this person around 2016-2017, and I thought that he was so intelligent, talented, funny and a very good person. It is worth mentioning that I am a person that rarely trusts easily people because of my personality it's conditioned by a communication disorder. In 2017 we were classmates, and we both were the first places in the class. We started to talk more,and I felt so comfortable with his personality and behavior. He is a person that you can talk about anything you want, and he is not judging you by how you are behaving, or a person who's gonna tell you that you don't have to be so shy. We started to be very good friends, I really liked to be with him, we laughed so much, I liked to go to school more than never in my four years at that school. We shared our knowledge, and we supported each other to study for the PSU.
At present, we are studying in the Universidad de Chile, in different careers, but he's still always supporting me, and we still laughing together. I like this person because he doesn't matter my strange feelings, and I can be myself when I'm with him.

The story of a photograph

The picture was taken by me in my summer holidays, and we can see just two dogs running at the beach, but the story of this picture for me it's more than just that.
I liked this photo, first at all, because I think that it's artistic, but also I like this photo because I can go back in time, and remember those days when I was so happy and relax. We had gone to my sister's wedding,  in the south of Chile. She lives on a wonderful island called Puerto Gala, and you can get there, taking an airplane from Santiago to Balmaceda, then you have to take a transfer to Coyhaique, from Coyhaique you have to take a bus, and travel around five hours by Austral road. Finally, you arrive in Puerto Cisnes, a little town, and there you take the last transport to arrive in Puerto Gala, a big ship that takes four hours to arrive to.
This picture was taken in Puerto Cisnes when we were coming back to Santiago, and those dogs start to play with my boyfriend and me, they brought us rocks like they were balls. And I was feeling so nostalgic because I love all about the south of Chile, even his dogs.

One of my favourites books

 The Metamorphosis (Franz Kafka), was one of my favourites book at the secundary, I was 14 year old when I read it for a test.
I liked this book for many reasons; the first one is by how it is narrated, it's a little like suspense and a little mysterious.
The second reason is because of the meaning that I gave it, given that the protagonist one day woke up turned into a gigantic insect, and he can´t leave their room anymore. I interpreted this like a metaphor of what society does to us today. The mechanization of our lives can become us to an insect at the moment when our bodies are no longer able to contribute to functionalism, and when that happens, we become a burden to others, regardless of the sacrifices we have made before, or what we keep doing.

My favourite piece of technology

I'm not fan of technology, but I like my phone, because it is very versatile and easy to carry. I got my phone last year, after that my old phone was stolen. It's not the greatest phone, but It's enough for me, because I can talk with my loved ones when I need it, listen to music, looking for new thing at google, or just watching memes.
I use my telephone almost all the time, except when I have lunch or have dinner next to other people or family member; this is because my mother has always instilled in me that they are moments to share with others.
In spite of everything, my life without my cell phone would perhaps be a little more empty at the moments that I need to distract myself, but in any case, it wouldn't be a problem to live a life without a telephone.

Why did I choose Social Work?

Well, I have to recognize that Social Work never was one of my options, since I was a child I wanted to be an artist, and I didn't matter what kind of art, because I loved painting, playing music, reading and writing, and even theatricals. But when I started to study for being a music teacher last year, I realized that: 1. I didn't like school system , and I didn't wanted to come back to a school ; and 2. I wanted to make something that allows me a more direct way to contribute to social change.
That's why this year I'm in another career and University, although my first option was Psychology, because for me it's fascinating the way human mind works, I was selected in Social Work.
Initially, I wasn't sure at all, but as I'm learning new things, at this moment I think that Social Work, probably chose me, and no backwards.
At present I still taking into account to study Psychology, but I don't like to close myself to other options, so I am studying Social Work with love.




My experience at the university, has been stressful for me, because I have to read too much and sometimes I don't have much time, sometimes neither want to, because meeting new people it's too much difficult to me since I was born, and university it's like and ocean for me, and I'm like oyster.
About what kind of job I would like to have, I think that I'd like to working at the SENAME , or some similar service.

Who am I?

I'm Yorza, but I adopted Sofrosine like my pseudonym, because I don't like my name. I was born on february 2nd, 2000, in Santiago, Chile; in fact, my zodiacal sign is Aquarius, and I'm so aquarian.

I completed my entire elemental school studies at a school called Atenea, it was just for girls; and then I went to Colegio Santa María de Santiago, to complete my high school, I liked my two schools because I met really good teachers that helped me a lot to finally continue my university studies at Universidad de Chile.

I have four sisters, one of them is younger than me; at present I live just with two of my sisters, my mother and my little niece, Luna.

My hobbies are mostly artistic; I love music,(in fact I was studying music at UMCE last year), I play the piano and sing; I like writing poetry, and also stories, I also enjoy drawing and painting; I am currently learning to make digital illustrations. I am not very good at sports because my mind is always very thoughtful, thinking and thinking. The last time I tried to play a sport, I slipped a finger and couldn't play piano with the school band.

I like learning new languages too, I used to be very well at English class. At present I'm learning french at FACSO, I'm so excited!

Here I leave some drawings that I made for a graphic narrative contest of the Museum of Memory and Human Rights.
