A little girl was saved by her dog

At the evening of yesterday, a girl of eight years old was attacked by a man that tried to rape her when she was alone in her house. Thankfully, the dog of her house avoids the crime by biting the aggressor. This happened in Punta Arenas, right after the mother of the little girl left her alone in her home because she had to go to the kindergarten to look for her brother.
After the attack, the mother took the girl to the medical center to find out if the rape happened or not, and the results of the exams showed that the crime didn’t get to an end, thanks to the dog.
According to the Brigade Investigating Child Sexual Offences and PDI of Punta Arenas, “We are working to get biological evidence that allow us to recognize the identity of the man in question. Soon we'll know what happened”.
In my opinion, this news is something unbelievable. First of all, the rape against a little girl of eight years is something that in our society, and in the entire world, shouldn’t happen. I can´t believe that nowadays this kind of crime is naturalized by all of us. Every day we watch or hear news like this.

But in other way, I think that this news can help to assess even more our pets, or in this case, the dogs. The hero is a dog. They defend us, they love us, and they are even more trustfull than humans, and this news represents all of that.

My favorite photo

This photo was taken by Victor, the father of one of my best friends, Mariajosé. We were in her house celebrating her birthday. It was a really special moment because we haven´t seen each other in a long time.
Their names, in order from left to right, are: Mariajosé, Paula, Catalina (me) and Isabel. I’m a friend of Mariajosé since 2011, also I’m friend with Paula like for seven years, and with Isabel for 15 years.
In this picture we essentially show all of our love. Every time I see it, I see our friendship in one moment. The way we are hugging each other, our heads all together, our faces showing happiness, our eyes shining, absolutely everything.  This photo shows many years of friendship.
It was taken in august 2014. I don’t remember the specific day, but it was in that month. I don’t like this photo, I love it. By the way, I have it printed in my wall, so in that way I can see it every day.
These three girls are the best people that I’ve ever met in my life. They are really great friends, and I wouldn’t change this friendship for anything in my life. I will remember all the things and experiences shared whit them, because they are really an important part of my life.
I´m still in touch with them. Even though we are separated because of our studies. Mariajosé is living in Holanda, but Paula and Isabel are here in Santiago. In summer we are gonna spend all of our free time together, so in that way we can recuperate all the missing parts.

My favourite piece of technology: my cellphone




Today I'm going to talk about my favourite piece of technology. And after thinking a lot, I get to the conclusion that it is my cellphone. I got it since June of this year and I didn't ask for it, so it was like a surprise.

It's not that easy to use an iPhone. Because of iCloud, iTunes and programs that are not well explained. But it's like a normal cellphone, after all. It's "touch" so in that way is easier to use it.

I rarely use it to call someone. The most time I use it to listen to music, to get in Facebook, Instagram or Whatsapp, and things like that.

I use it everyday, everytime. If I don't have it near, I worry. Not because I love it haha because my mom would kill me if I lost it.

I like this little thing, first of all because is white. I really like white technology things. I also like it because it's an iPhone. That sounds really bad, but I like Apple technology, even though it's really complicated to understand.

My life would be the same without it, I think, just a little more boring. I would be less connected, but that's not a thing that matters to me.
