My favorite writer

When I was at the school, my lenguage teacher made me read a book titled "Tengo miedo torero". I think it would be one more book, but what I didn´t know is that it would lead me to meet the best Chilean writer I've met. I´m talkin about Pedro Lemebel.

Pedro Mardones Lemebel, son of Pedro and Violeta, was born in 1952. He studied at the University of Chile and was titled as a professor of Fine Arts. Regrettably he died on January 23, 2015, at the age of 62, suffering from a cancer.

During his working life he started to relate to feminist writers and support communists movements. However Pedro it no was accepted in the communist militancy, because never hidden your homosexuality.

Pedro was characterized by his high hell shoes and his makeup. But the most important thing about Pedro it was the way he write and the content of his books.

His biggest job was in the area of journalism writing chronicles, specifically he wrote about the darkest sides of everyday Chilean life. Some of his chronicles are "La esquina de mi corazón", Loco afán" y "De perlas y cicatrices". Pedro also wrote novels and the most famous are "Tengo miedo torero", "Zanjón de la aguada" and "Adiós Mariquita linda".

Lemebel is my favorite writer because with his books make me thing about life. He with every word he writes makes me feel something.

My future?

When I was a little girl always though about my future, but without worrying too much. The first job I dreamed of was working in a nursery, because I love to teach and especially I love children(forgetting  that I was a girl in those times  haha). My second dream job was to becone a designer, I loved to create new fashion style. When I got to adolescence I realized that what I wanted for my future should include connecting with other people and try to make a small change in the world( Even though it sounds very dreamy) The careers that included the things that I like were journalism and publicity. Finally I decided for journalis because is more complete in knowledge and identify me more. My experience at university at now is very nice and I have met many people with my same ideals and that is amazing. I still don´t know what I want to do in a few more years, the only thing the I know is Im in the right place with the right people.

A little about me

My  birth is not really interesting. I was born in the hospital of the commune of Puente Alto and  from there I live in the same place. I am eighteen years old and I was always the youngest at school and at university. My mom says I'm ahead, but I do not believe her much. Living in Santiago, "the great capital", makes me feel safe about my school and work possibilities, but at the same time i would like to breath more often the clean air of south of Chile. My mom is everything to me and her passion for education it whats is what motivates me most from day to day. Mi sister is three years older than me and although we fight is my best friend for life . Finally my father is the best man and of course im your baby. Currently my parents are not together, but it's fine for me and I love them both .   My biggest hobby is dancing, I love to dance !, especially folk dances. In the school I participated in the folkloric workshops and in several competitions of the typi...
