My favourite subject

Well, in the university the subjects are more complicated than school and sometimes results a bit bored like Chemistry or Maths, but there is one subject that I really like: Zoology. In this subject you study since protozoa until mammals, sometimes is a bit difficult because you have to learn a lot of names and characteristics of every single animal, insect, whatever, but you get fun because the contents are interesting and they may be useful in a future.
Another reason why I like Zoology is because you have laboratory activities, for example if you are studying fishes, in the laboratory you can check the fish's anatomy, also you use the microscope, gloves and times the scalpel, it results very entertaining, because you feel that you are a veterinarian, and you are investigating.
But once this subject was really bad for me, it was when I had to study spiders, I really fear them and I had to watch them in the microscope but due to that experience now I don't fear them so much, I hope overcome this phobia.

Someone who I admire

Marcelo Cañete Molina is a Preuniversity school Pedro de Valdivia's teacher,since the first day that I had my biology's class with him I realized that he was really bright and the classes were really funny because he explained telling jokes, so you didn't fall asleep, due to that the classes were really good, biology was easy to understand for me and I began to learn too much. He teaches biology for PSU and is incredible like in one year you learn very well  the contents of 4 years of school and you get good results in the PSU.
I admire him because he is a veterinarian from University of Chile, and I would like to know a lot of science and be really reognized in my area as him, I really want to be one of the best veterinarians.
For me is a kind of model to follow, so when I get into the University of Chile, I went to see him to tell that I was going to study veterinary medicine, he told me that he can help me, that's really good because the university is complicated and sometimes is necessary that somebody guides you , overall if is a professional who studied the same career that you.
