ENTRY NUMBER 34

The importance of having a good treatment

I think that it is good to know about the reality of other countries because we have the chance to compare our own health care system with theirs. It is clear that the government of European countries invest a lot of money in the health care system something that does not happen here since you have to pay a lot of money to get a good treatment or go to a hospital where there are a lot of people waiting for treatment. My experience in hospitals is similar because I always go at six am but I have to wait until 8am to see the doctor but not only that I have to wait for weeks to have some exam done. So the fact that we are poor means that we must suffer not only from some illnes but also trying to cure it after all life is fare for everyone. Lately I saw in the news that there is a epedimy that is affecting our neighbour country Paraguay many people has died but the solution is a simple vaccine that sadly is not at the hands of those how need it the most . Although many years have passed there is the same fear as in the past century of having a massive loss of human lives.

ENTRY NUMBER 33

When you are a grown up

After you turn certain age you generally think that it means you have acquired certain knowledge but then you realize that it is not actually true. The fact that you are an old person does not mean that you have the answer to all the problems that cross your way. When I was a child I used to think that after I turn twenty one I will be able to suport myself and live by my own but now that I am older than twenty one I am still living with my parents and depending on them almost as when I was a child. I do not know if it has to do with the fact that I am inmature or with the fact that I did not learn yet what I was supposed to learn at this age. So after a lot of thinking I realized that I still have a lot to learn about how a grown up manage to be responsible and have fun at the same time which is something I still do not know . When I have something fun to do I leave my responsibilities aside and do not think much about the consequences of my actions. In coclusin I think that when you are a grown up you must manage to have same balance between fun and responsibilities and in this way you will be a real grown up person.

Entry Number 32

While you are on vacation

When you go to some place to spend your holidays you are supposed to relax and have a nice time but sometimes you have to use your prescious time to do something you do not want to do like study or work. Usually after a year of hard work you deserve a moment to rest but if you did not commit with the things as you were supposed to you probably will have to use your free time to catch up. But after many times that happened this to me I still do not know how to handle to get everything done on time and I usually use part of my free time to do whatever I have to complete from my responsibilities. I am conscious that I had not done my job as I was supposed to but I do not care doing the assigments that it must have been done by now. So I am doing that now but at least I am in another province having a nice time.
