Money

The money isn't important for me. If the money would be important for me, I didn't chose studying music... maybe I would study engineering to get more money... I don't need money to do the things what I like (composing, playing a instrument, walking), and maybe for this reason the monet haven't a important place in my life.
Well, I have a job now to do something with my friends, buy somethings for my cello (for example strings)... I will spend my money on what I really need and not on what the advertising say that I need . I'm not materialist. I don't need buy all. I buy only what I need... Also, I save part of my money to travel to Germany (that is the biggest reason why I have a job xd). Even so, I don't get much money at the end of the month. I must very organized with my budget, but because I wouldn't suvirve in the month. Always I save a little bit of money for emergency cases (you don't know when it could happen something). Luckily, I never had to pawn something, but if I feel me obliged to do that sometime, I don't know what I could pawn, because I don't have value belongings, except my cello and my notes haha But I would prefer playing cello outside the metro to get a little bit of money xd...
If I would be millonaire, I would buy a few buildings or houses to rent, then I would live with the money of the rents. And the rest of money, that I would have (because I would millonaire), I would hide it, like a "seach of the treasure". I would make maps for the people, then they could seach my fortune and who had reached find the treasure, could keep for himself.

Environment!

I remember when I was at the school, we had more speech about the environment )how the world safe, about recycle, the global warming), but we didn't never something related with that... But when I was in Germany, at the school, the concern about environment is bigger that in Chile, in this moment I think. For example, I remember that every week one class had clean the school (I mean, clean up the papers, etc.), and in the school you have trashes with different colors for different things (one for paper, other for tins for all plastic and metallic, and other for organic things). I think that the concern about recycling you can learn since the school, because in this country the all people separate the things before take out the trash.. you can find different trashes in all places (in stadiums, in the airport, in the railway stations). The school have a important role in the society to have concern about safe the environment.
When I came back, I tried to recycle in my home, but it was useless, because the concern about recycle must start from the government, or the mayor of the city, and then the people can be more concerned to recycle. In my city, since three or two year, started with a "political of recycling", that means that all people must separate the papers and the other things.
Well, other thing is the compost. In my city are not much buildings. For this reason, the people lives in houses, with bigger yards in some houses, then more people concerns to keep very beautiful the yards, and some people have a little farm too. In those cases, the compost is very important because you use it as fertilizer. and you don't spend much money for a fertilizer because you use the organic matters to do that.
In Santiago, I don't do that because I live in a building xd. For this reason my way to contribute whit the environment is using a bike. I don't use often the public transport or cars, I prefer walking or using a bike. Other way to contribute wiht the environment maybe is participated in a organisation like Greenpace... I don't like that and I don't have time to participate in some things xd...

My future job

Well, It's very difficult for me talking about my "working future", because I don't know if I really would have a job as composer...I would say that no composer lives from the composition. You should find other possibilities "to finance" the composition's projects. For example, you can conduct a orchestra, working at school or at the university as teacher, if you play some instruments you can teaching too, or get a place in a orchestra or music group... I find that a little comical, because even though studying composition (a looooong major) you should study other things related with music, if you want to do something with music...

The biggest concern for my parents about that, is if I could get a stable job. Well, that is very difficult to explain because when I decided studying composition, I didn't think in the working field, but I thought in what I wanted do in my life. I think when you do something only because you want to do that (without thinking in the future), the chances came alone. In my case it's so. I do the things only because I want do that, and I have had lucky maybe, because now I have gotten a job as teacher not because I looked for that, but for what I did and accomplished as musician.

In this moment I'm not sure what I would do in the future, but I would like do two things: teaching composition (or another subject) at the university, and conducting a orchestra. First, I would like to study a master in another country (master in composition), because when you have a master (or better a doctorate) is more easy to get a job in a university. And after that, maybe studying orchestra conducting...
Well, I don't have clear my future... xD
