My favourite hobby

Hi guys, today I’m gonna write about my favorites hobbies which is playing videogames.

Playing videogames has been my hobby since I was 6, maybe, I can’t recall correctly, but I used to play “SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)” and that’s how I started playing games and consoles like SNES. Then, the Playstation era started, it was like the most played console and it reached a lot of fame around the world, you can see people of all ages playing on consoles. But then, something bigger, funnier, brand new and more accepted by public came to the market; Computer games. Not just computer games, but online games. It revolutionized the world, and most of the people who used to play on consoles now play online games with their friends and with unknown people around the world.

Playstation 4 (The most recent console of Playstation)

Well, that was a very short version of the history of games, but so that you can understand that my point was the online games, which I use to play very often.

This hobby is important to me because of many things. First, thanks to online games I learned to speak in English, at least the basics. Second, I were able to meet friends I made by playing videogames with them. And last, it helps me to chill out when I’m stressed.

To me, hobbies mean things we do to break the routine and we also enjoy a lot.

I would never have football as a hobby, I think is monotonous and always the same, I prefer things more challenging and individual, like Tennis or chess. Actually, I think chess would be my hobby in the future, I really like it and as I said before, is more challenging and individual.

The key of the digestive system

Vital organ only found in vertebrates, located in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen, below the diaphragm, the body’s second largest organ. If you haven’t figured out what am I talking about, you should read this blog.

The Liver is one of the most important organs for the human beings, without it we wouldn’t be able to perform many essential functions related to digestion, metabolism, immunity, and storage of nutrients within the body. We would quickly die from lack of energy and nutrients.

When everyone is told to think about a vital organ, they quickly think about Brain or Heart, including me, but we all miss, in my opinion, the most interesting organ. Every time I think about the Liver and the many functions it performs, I can easily imagine a movie of the glucose being transported into hepatocytes under the Insulin command and via glycogenesis the glucose turns into glycogen, which is a multibranched polysaccharide of the glucose; this means a lot of glucose stacked. That’s the Liver life and work, enter glucose and stack it. But have you ever wondered what would happen if there’s an insulin failure?

The Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders in which there are high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period. There are different types of diabetes, but there’s one that is actually caused by pancreas’s failure to produce enough insulin. The classical symptoms are frequent urination, increased thirst, increased hunger and weight loss. It can also include additional symptoms like blurry vision, feeling tired and poor healing.  At the date, there’s no cure for this disease and the cause is unknown.

The Liver is the key player on the digestive system, and in order to try to avoid some illnesses, you must keep it healthy; cause is a very easy-to-trash organ.

In furtherance of keep the Liver healthy, you need to be healthy. What I mean is that you should care of yourself, like don’t drink a lot of alcohol, eat a healthy diet and get regular exercise and watch out for certain medicines which can hurt your Liver if you abuse of them.

Since the world doesn’t know how the diabetes is caused, or how it can be cured, and all the system the Liver runs, I think this is a very challenging organ and interesting to study and it’s amazing.

My first encounter with the South of Chile

Surrounded by mountains, rivers, small city but comfy. Founded by settlers under the name of Baquedano.

It was a couple years ago, in Coyhaique, Chile, I spent the best holiday ever. The view was amazing, a lot of green areas, animals, beautiful landscapes and full of friendly people; they make you feel like home. I went to almost every place you can visit in Coyhaique and surroundings and the weather was nice to me because I really like chilly days and there were a lot of those days. I will never forget when I and my family (my parents and sister) went to my uncle’s house; it is in some sort of field full of fauna, we had a lot of fun by riding horses and then eating lamb beef, it was pretty cool.

I have wonderful memories of the travel to the “Reserva Nacional”, it was an amazing experience, and we got the chance to really feel the nature in our hands, unforgettable day.

We were in Coyhaique for less than a month, and in that short time we traveled almost all the town, and all the things I’ve said before makes me feel like it was the best travel so far, I hope I can get back to the South of Chile and meet new places.
