I'd like to visit... Verona




Definitely my favorite country is Italy, so I hope someday I can go there. I love a lot of Italian cities, but the first in my list is Verona. I think Verona is the most beautiful city ever. It has a incredible architecture, and a lot of amazing places to visit, like the “casa de Giulietta”, the “Arci dei Gavi” or the Basilica of San Zeno Maggiore. In fact, Verona has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Besides you can sail on Verona’s waterways, a pretty unusual and unique experience.
I don’t really sure about if I like to live on this city, because I believe it is hard to get fast anywhere, cause there is some places where the only transportation is by boats, and this is not very comfortable. Another stuff I’m not sure if I can endure is to live a winter there.
I would go by my own, because I feel this give you more freedom to do whatever you want.
Actually I’m not saving money for this trip, but I expect than during my first job year I can get money and go there, and if I’m lucky, know another Italian cities, as Rome, Florence and Milan

Music I hear when I feel sad...




When I am sad I always listen to Babasonicos, because I really like their music and I enjoy sing their songs when I want to cheer up. Besides, some of their music is pretty relaxing and makes you feel very quiet, but whatever, they play rock music, so they have some music that is not very calm, but I like it too, cause you can free your emotions whit this kind of songs.I also listen to Chico Trujillo, because they transmitted a lot of energy in their songs, and I think it really helps when you feel unhappy. Further, the lyrics of some of their songs are funny, so is it enjoyable to hear it.I truly believe music help a lot when you do not feel very well, because you can forget about everything when you listen to your favorites songs. I discover music, sometimes, can make you change the way you feel in a certein moment, and it is pretty important know how can affect you. Finally, I can say music it is an awesome therapy for a lot of different problems and you must know how to use it for the sad moments in your lifetime.

Who is a person/expert on your field that you admire?


I admire Stanley Milgram. He was born on 1933 to a Jewish family in New york city. His father was Hungarian and his mother, Romanian. In 1954, Milgram received his Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from Queens College, New York. He applied to a Ph. D. program in social psychology at Harvard University and was initially rejected due to an insufficient background in psychology (he had not taken one undergraduate course in psychology while attending Queens College). He was eventually accepted to Harvard in 1954. He die on 1984, because a heart failure.He was made a lot of interesting experiments, but there is two that I think are the most importants: Small World Phenomenon, also known as the six degrees of separation; and the controversial Milgram's Experiment 18: A Peer Administers Shocks. What I like about him is that he was a very innonative man and he provided a lot of new ideas to the psychology. Currently some of his methods aren’t ethically accepted, but we can’t deny how important the information he give us is, and how all his work allows a better understanding of human beings.
