My blogging experience

Since the beginning of this semester all of us (the classmates) started writing blogs about random topics, and this is the 10th.

So, today I'm going to write my experience in general about blogging. What can I say? It has been a very nice experience! 

At first, it was very difficult for me to write in english and expressing my thoughts, opinions and ideas. I remember when I was in high school and have to write little sentences in simple english, and yet I found it very complicated. And now in the University, with help of skills given in class, writing short paragraphs is easy and fast.

Thanks to this, I feel that my writing skills have developed pretty well!

I think if have to write a large essay or a short book, I would like do it without a doubt.

And now writing comments in my classmates’ blogs is other thing. Sometimes I can’t find the right words to respond a nice post, but in the end I write something short, but at least I can express my opinion about the topic.

In the future if I have some time, I would like to improve my writing skills much more, and write about more things, like music and my favourite artists, series, movies, my selection of games and art, and post about my personal sketches (they aren’t good but I can improve that too ;-;). Wow! Many things to write about!

The most enjoyable subject thus far

We are still in the fall semester of Pharmacy, in this there are very interesting subjects, such as General Chemistry, Introduction to Calculus, Chemistry Laboratory Techniques, among others. What gives a special "adventure" to the new university life.

But, in my humble opinion, I think the subject that most caught my attention and liked is Mechanics. Why do I like it? It's very simple. Since high school I loved this subject. The simple fact to understand what happens around us with understandable and provable scientific terms is striking and astonishing. And delve into the matter even more in the university, makes me continue being attracted to physical science.

In classes, we are about one hundred students, and we have more theorical than practical classes. The first ones are made, obviously, in a classroom, and here the teacher and his auxiliaries do classes. The teacher writes in the whiteboard and we take note about that he wrote and he explains if something was not understood. Like a normal class in a school or institute.

The auxiliaries propose exercises to us and resolve questions. It's very entertaining!

And the last ones are made in the physics laboratory, where we do experiments to check what was seen in the theoretical classes. These chasses are very funny and stressful, because we have short time for practical work. But at least, we learn in a different way.

Anyway, I like the subject because it is fun and easy to understand (At least for me). Also, the atmosphere is very good, especially with friends, with whom you compare the answers of the exercises.

From the invisible to the visible world and back

Many of us have focused on the partiality of things, where we assume the behavior that they will have even before they do something, for example, a balloon, candle, rubber or a bulb; but we almost never have wondered how do they work, in a microscopic or nanoscopic level to trigger their function in the visible level for humans.

Nowadays, scientists and engineers have designed, developed and created the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the largest single machine in the whole world. It was designed to collide beams of hadrons or protons, up to 7 TeV energy.  The main purpose of it is to examine the validity and limits of the Standard Model, which is currently the theoretical framework of particle physics. As a common young adult, I learned about this a long time ago, when I saw an article in the periodic.

In my career, this invention has more importance in the ambit of chemistry and physics, because it can answer many questions that scientists have wondered for decades or even more years, and can approve or discard a lot of theories related to the Universe. So, the information will be more precise and accurate, and can be teached in a safe way. That's why I choose this magnificent instrument.

His future use will be, as I said previously, answer questions that a lot of scientifics have wondered through the years, such as: the meaning of the mass, the mass of the particles and their origin, number of total particles of the atom, recreate the conditions that caused the Big Bang, and many others.

Mainly, the potential impact on human welfare would be, in addition to the acquisition of information and knowledge about the Universe and the world around us, using it to develop science with more accurate results for energetical, medicinal, physical and mathematicians uses, among others.

These could be the advantages of the great machine, but what if something went wrong? Well, major institutions report that could trigger catastrophic events, such as the formation of black holes, super-massive foreign matter, magnetic monopoles or other process resulting in destruction of the Earth. But according to studies, there is no basis to justify them. WELL, THAT'S GOOD, HUH? *calms down*
