The Veterinary Option

When I was a child I liked cars and my dream was to be a taxi driver at age 10 approximately. The Veterinary Medicine option appeared in the school, I saw the TV show "The law of the jungle" and thought as I could do the same. In the secondary school, look others options of universitary profession and thought in Human Medicine, Journalism and Kinesiology. This last option, together with Veterinary Medicine, was the most important in my last year in the school.

In secondary school I practiced athletics in National stadium and, for this, I liked the kinesiology as option of job in the future. But Veterinary Medicine was always present in my plans. In my fourth year of school I had these two options of universitary carreer and after the PSU I applied to these options in the University of Chile. The two options were the same for me, so I waited and was selected in veterinary medicine.

In these four years I have had great experiences, I met good friends, learned a lot about politics and life, here I am being formed as a critical person. Because of that, I would like to work in clinic with residents as the "CESAVE El Roble" or field with small farmers.
