Cony (Taylor's version)

It's not a secret that I'm not the biggest fan of my major and that makes a little bit difficult talk (on this occasion, write) about it, but if there a thing that I like is the idea of being a journalist. This romantic conception about the journalist who risk their career and their life in favor some super important information that the world has the right to know it's one of the reasons why I decided to study journalism (I watch so many movies, I know) It’s interesting how my experience as a student has not taken away this idea of ​​what journalism means. I’m still believing that the world depends on the people whose job it’s to inform. There are thousands of stories around the world that must be heard and it’s the duty of journalists to make it known in an ethical, responsible and true way, even though they may endanger themselves. Honestly, I have no idea where I fit into this hero fantasy I've created, but I like to think I could help to make the world a better p...

This is one of my favorite photos (the bad quality is part of the charm. Blame Blogspot lol).  The beautiful girl with the red hair is my best friend, Valentina, and we took this photo the day we finally meet in person after a year of knowing the each other existance. Vale and I met on a One Direction WhatsApp groupchat in 2020. We became friend without really knowing, this groupchat was full of girls with the same passion as us but, like Taylor Swift said, all along there was some invisible string tying me to her (yes, I'm a cheesy friend. Shut up). This photo was on my wall in my hometown room, but it follows me to Santiago because I like to see it. We can't see each other as much we would like, but we talk every day and when we are together we have some good adventures. So thank you to these five amazing guys who give me the most amazing person. (Ugh, I'm never gonna let her read this. It's disgusting).

The first time I saw one of this I was 9 years old maybe. It was on my dad's room, it was big, old and the most amazing thing I had ever seen. This one was from my grandfather and had a little detail: it haven't enough weight on the needle, so you had to put a small coin in the top of the arm to make it work.  I was starstruck with this beautiful thing and how it worked, for me it was magic. My dad play me some of his favorite things on it and I remember spend so much time just looking and learning. My dad lent it to me when I was 12. It was heavy and difficult to clean, but I loved take care of it. I got my own at 17. It was a christmas gift and I was the happiest person in the world. It was white and smaller than the one I fell in love, but it was perfect. My dad loves Pink Floyd and I grow up with their music so, naturally, the first thing that I play on this new one was my favorite song of them.  Now I have a lot of new things to play on it (most of them gifts as well) in ...

When I was younger and people asked me about my dream job I never really had an answer, I always thought "what kind of silly question is this?". I don't know why I decide to study journalism, maybe was because people always said I talked a lot (I'm still do it), but I'm pretty sure that I was in high school at that time. I remember when I told one of my teachers what I wanted to study, she said "do you want to be murdered?" (she's such a good teacher lol). My time at university it's been a little bit... Weird. I mean, two years in online classes doesn't give you the most stereotypical experience. I haven't made any friend here, but I've never been a person who makes friends anyway. In general, I don't really like my major (and sometimes I really hate it) but I'm still here because I like the idea of being a journalist, I guess. My dream job is to be a war correspondent (maybe my teacher was right after all) or a photojournal...

(Okay, i'm writing this an hour after Harry Styles drop his new single so i'm still shaking a little bit…) Hi! My name is Constanza Valdivieso Tobar (nobody calls me like that so please don't use it) aka Cony. I'm 20 years old and I'm a may taurus. I was raise in a little town in the north of Chile, Chañaral (not the one with the whales, btw). I have two baby twin brothers, Nicolás and Benjamín, and a three-legged dog called Simón Maximiliano. I'm a huge One Direction (Louis' girl here) and Taylor Swift fan. I talk a lot about this, it's like my only personality trait (it’s kinda sad, I know).   I read a lot and I like order my books by color. My favorite color is any shade of blue and I'm left-handed. I don't know what else to write so I think this is all. Good luck trying to find the lie :)  PS: I failed kindergarden. Twice.
