  My favourite piece of technology is the computer. When I was a child my father worked in Xerox, where he would be around new pieces of technology all the time, and since they where always renovating their PCs, they were selling the old ones to their employees, thanks to that we always had one at home. I don’t really know why it’s my favourite piece of technology, but it must be because of all the things you can do in one, mainly for the internet connection that you can have on it. For example, I use it to study (for my career and for things that I want), to work, to play, to listen music, etc… It affects in my life in a big way, I think it has transformed in a necessity for my day-to-day life, but I don’t know if I would recommend it, there are other pieces of technology that gives you the same uses and are more user-friendly, like tables or cell phones. Thanks for reading and good luck.

It was like that until one day I found a cat almost dead by the road, the poor thing was bitten by a dog, and I got really shocked by that (I was between 6-8 years old), my mother explained to me that those things happened usually and that a veterinary was going to put him down, since it was better for the cat. After that I decided not to be a veterinary and wanted to study music, I started playing piano since I was 6 years old, and stopped playing at my 16’s, my family had a strong resistance with this idea, since to them “musicians are not paid well enough to have a good life”. After I finished my school education, I wanted to study something relationated with chemistry, but couldn’t decide what, so I decided to get a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in chemistry, which I already finished. I really didn’t have other option...
