  Hi everyone! When someone asks me what job I want to get, 2 years ago i would say, "i want to work in an orchestra”, but now I’m not that sure haha. Don’t get me wrong, I would love to do it, but these years I’ve discover a lot other possibilities. Anyways, the past two years my self-esteem hasn’t been the best, so sometimes I feel like I’m not going to make it, or I don’t deserve what I’ve addressed. Because oh this, I've been assuming short term goals only, the pressure of thinking about what I want to do after I finish my career stress me out like crazy, so actually, I’ve not wasted my energy thinking about it. That being said, I’m going to let me dream for a bit. I would like a job where I can travel a lot (maybe in another country), because I love meeting new people and making music with them. Also, I would like to have a job that gives me time for myself, or whatever I want to do in that moment of my life. I don’t want a job that takes all my time, I want to live m...

  Hi   everyone! So, I’m studying musical interpretation, even though I love it, there is a lot of things that I would change about it. For example, I have 8 classes this year. I don’t even have the time to practice properly, or study for every class, or have a nice time with my friends. I’m working on organizing my schedule so I can have time for myself, but it’s kinda hard. Also, the worst experience that I had with a professor was back in 2019, when I had chamber music with some friends that were 2 years ahead of me. I hated it because the teacher didn’t gave any feedback to my classmates, just me. He asked me every class how many years I’ve been playing my instrument, and saying that I should know things that I was just learning at that moment. He was so mean, I ended up crying after his classes because I felt so humiliated. I’m not very confident at anything, so this experience didn’t help at all. The end of the semester is stressful for everyone I think. Usually at...

  Hi Everyone! My favorite time of the year is autumn. I love cold weather and the colors that this season brings to the nature. Also, in this time of the year, my grandma and I make sopaipillas when it rains. Beside of the delicious meal that we have, I love cooking with my grandma because we talk a lot. I usually ask for advice, also we talk about our problems, sometimes we gossip, or just laugh about something dumb. Anyways, I don’t remember the exact recipe, but I remember this. We use: ¼   kg. of pumpkin, hot water, 3 cups of flour, 1 tea spoon of baking soda, 3 spoons of vegetal fat, salt and vegetal oil.   You have to cook the pumpkin into hot water with salt and when it’s ready, you take the pumpkin off the water and smash it. Then you make sort of a flour volcano and pour like ½ cup of the water where you cooked the pumpkin (make sure you added salt). Then add the smashed pumpkin and the vegetal fat (you have to melt it into a pan first) and slowly stir wit...
