Abraham Maslow

I think Abraham Maslow is one of the best in Psychology because he is one of the founder of the Humanistic module.
Abraham Maslow created a theory about human motivation: The Maslow hierarchy of needs. This theory is described like a pyramid with five leves that have in it's base physiological needs and have in the highest level the self actualization (this is related to have a purpose in life).
I like Maslow because I think people must to have a purpose in life, wich makes sense to people's life. Some people may think that self actualization is an utopic belief or people don't need self actualization to live, but I think that self actualization makes people's life better.
I think Maslow is the one of the best in my area, because he described a theory about human motivation and the last level of his theory makes totally sense to me.

What is Psychology?

In first place, psychology is a discipline who studies human behaviour and mental functions. It has a scientific method and an object of study: human being.
The good things about psychology is that there are many approaches inside psychology discipline, that is why there are so many things to study. What I like the most of psychology is that you can work in so many different places, becuase human beings are in almost everything.
What I dislike about psychology is psychoanalysis, because in university we had to study it in many subjects. I don't like it because I think that psychoanalysis has too many theories that are speculative and it doesn't have enough scientific support.
I think psychology is one of the most exciting disciplines in the world because it is the study of human being and it can be use everyday in human beings lifes.

Kathy's Prom!

If I'm not wrong, this picture was taken the 20th of December in last year.
That day was very special because it was the prom of one of my best friends, Kathy.
She lives in Viña del Mar and that day I travelled there, because I live in Santiago.
I travelled at the morning, so when I got there we went to the hairdressing saloon.
The party was so great, but the music not so much, because the music was kind of old and the DJ dind't play songs that we like. But It was great after all.
The party finished at 6 in the morning, and we spent the night talking and laughing with her friends, It was really cool.
I'll always remember that day because It was a very special moment to my friend Kathy and It was special for me too, becuase she chose me to go with her in spite of a lot of her friend who lives in Viña del Mar.
I think after that day we became much closer.

My most precious possession

I think my most precious possession is Mokona Modoki. Mokona Modoki is a white teddy bear from CLAMP anime series. CLAMP is an manga-anime group and Mokona appears in many of they series, for example "Magic knight Rayearth", "xxxHOLiC" and "Tsubasa Chronicles".
One day, a special person who I love gave me Mokona Modoki and I really loved it. I always saw Mokona in a showcase at Eurocentro, and it became mine last year on 10th October.
Mokona Modoki has a red gem in her face and has huge ears. In the anime series there are two Mokonas, the white and the black one. The wizards Yuuko and Clown created them. Both of them can communicate from different worlds and they also can send things to each other by eating things! It's so cute when they do that.
