The Neuropsychology is a clinical discipline that converges between the Psychology and the Neurology. It studies the effects that the damage or anomalous produce in the functioning of structures in the nervous central system on the cognitive, psychological, emotional processes and on the individual behavior. ¡¡That is so interesting!!These effects or deficits can be provoked by traumatism, cerebral tumors, neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer, Parkinson, etc.) or diseases of the development (epilepsy, cerebral paralysis, etc)
This science is a branch of specialization that can be reached after the university studies. A Neuropsychologist is a Psychologist or specializing Doctor who work in academic context, clinical environments, and of investigation, being able to evaluate the cerebral damage of a person in order to detect the anatomical zones and the cognitive strong and weak functions.

I hope that we learn more about the brain disseasses and it priest. I finish my carrer in aproximatly 1 1/2 year, and I suposse that we will learn more about all the topic related the brain, the human behavior, etc.

ASSIGNMENT 3: WEEKENDS....

Well, the last weekend I hang up with my school friends. On Friday I arrived to the metro “Los Leones” at 7:15. I called to my friend Vivian, because I don’t found them. When we found (Vivi and me) the other girl (Liz, Carolina, Catalina and Samanta), we went to a happy hour in a pub called “Olivo”. In there, we smoked some cigarettes, and talked about the last things that happening in our lifes. Liz said to us that in approximately three months she will go to Canadá for 5 months to seeing her boyfriend. Uhhhh I was so sad, but I now that this man is his happiness. Then this conversation we drunk piñas colada and ate quesadillas. ¡¡Ñam!!! It so delicious.

At 21:00 aproximatly we say goodbye¡¡ It was so fun, I miss them a lot!!!
On Saturday, I went to my job. I pack the purchases of the people in a supermarket, called “Lider express”. This supermarket located in “Tobalaba” with “Las Camelias”. I worked here because it’s only three hours and a half and the people gave very good tips. Then I went to my boyfriend. He invited me to a restaurant, because I didn´t had lunch. We ate fried potatoes with chicken. After that, we saw a scary movie, called “Orfanato”.

On Sunday I worked again. When my shift finished, I saw my boyfriend and he accompanied me to my house. When I was in my house, I found out for the Monday's activities.

ASSIGNMENT 2: YOUR FAVORITE SONG EVER!

My favorite song ever is “Ain´t No Mountain High Enough” by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. Tammi Terrell (April 29, 1945 – March 16, 1970) was a Grammy Award-nominated American soul singer, that initially recorded alone, with only moderate success.

However, from 1967 she recorded a series of duets with Marvin Gaye, producing hits with Ashford & Simpson written tunes such as "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". Once she was paired with Gaye, her star rose, but in the fall of that year she collapsed on stage into Gaye's arms during a performance. She was then diagnosed with a brain tumor which eventually led to her death at the age of 24.

Marvin Gaye ( April 2, 1939 – April 1, 1984) was an iconic two-time Grammy-winning American singer, songwriter, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and record producer who gained international fame as an artist on the Motown record label in the 1960s and 1970s.

That song is a love song, because it talks about no mather the distance, he will go to help her, whenever she needs him. ¡¡¡Love is stronger!!!. But it´s not only the love that a man gives to a woman, because it could be a mother-child love.

This song means very much to me, because its words remind me lots of moments with my boyfriend. There´s sometimes when we are into the car, when we listen this song and we sing it out loud until it ends.

6 Unusual Facts About the Human Body

1. Don't stick out your tongue if you want to hide your identity. Similar to fingerprints, everyone also has a unique tongue print!

2. Your pet isn't the only one in the house with a shedding problem. Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour. That works out to about 1.5 pounds each year, so the average person will lose around 105 pounds of skin by age 70.

3. An adult has fewer bones than a baby. We start off life with 350 bones, but because bones fuse together during growth, we end up with only 206 as adults.

4. Did you know that you get a new stomach lining every three to four days? If you didn't, the strong acids your stomach uses to digest food would also digest your stomach.

5. Your nose is not as sensitive as a dog's, but it can remember 50,000 different scents.

6. The small intestine is about four times as long as the average adult is tall. If it weren't looped back and forth upon itself, its length of 18 to 23 feet wouldn't fit into the abdominal cavity, making things rather messy.
