In this blog I'm going to tell you about my favorite piece of technology.  I choose an application called "WhatsApp", this is a messaging application, it also allows to make video calls, send photos, voice notes and make call (like a phone). The app works only with internet (it is the only bad things). I use the app to communicate with other people, before I did not use it much, but I started using it more often (everyday) when I came to study in Santiago. I really like it because it allows me to talk with my family and my friends instantly, since they are far away. If this app did not exist, I would probably talk to other people only by SMS or maybe not.   You can download this app for free from App Store for Apple or Play Store for Android. 

When I was a girl I had my teeth very crooked, they even called me "Salad of teeth" so my parents decided to put me braces. That definitely changed my life. For me, it was a very nice experience where I was excited every time I had to go to the dentist. There I understood that I also wanted to do the same, but in sectors where there was not have a good availability of dentists (like my town). That's why this race was always my first choice, although I wanted to study at the University of Talca, but because of things in life I ended up here, at the University of Chile, and I really do not regret being here, or having chosen this career because every day that passes I fall more and more in love with her. Every day I realize that this is what I want to do forever.                          

Hello, my name is Sofia Belen Herrera Lorca. I was born on December 16, 1999 in Santa Cruz, Chile. I live in Auquinco (a small town). I have a younger brother named Camilo, he have 14 years old. I also have a dog named Pituco. My mom name is Veronica and my dad's name is Jorge. My best friend is Alejandra, we have been friends for 13 years, she is like a sister. During my basic education I was in three different schools. I graduated from lyceum named Complejo Educacional Chimbarongo. When I was 8 years, my dad went to work to Costa Rica for 6 months and in that time my brother fell from the second floor of my house, so my mom and I had a very bad time. I'm currently student of Dentistry at the University of Chile, so I live from Monday to Friday in Santiago and on the weekend I travel to Auquinco.
