  Hello everyone, I had a hard time finding a topic to talk about in this last blog, but I chose to talk about my favorite Chilean singer who is Princesa Alba. First I will talk about her, her name is Trinidad Riveros and she is 25 years old. Since she was a little girl she has liked football and she is a "Colo Colo" fans, thats the reason of her stage name. She studied audiovisual communication and advertising. Her artistic career started in 2017 with the track "my only one", which went viral and received a lot of cyberbulling. The negative comments affected her, but it didn't make her stop. In 2018 she released a mixtape called "Del cielo mixtape" in which you can see the influence of the "sad boys" that was fashionable in 2011, which are characterized by digital. With the song "summer love" Princesa Alba stopped being a mockery and began to have important presentations, one of them as a guest at the lollapalooza festival. ...

He advice I would give to a high school student is to wait the necessary time to decide what they want to do with their life. Many times, due to social pressure they enter a career and as time goes by they feel tired or bored, putting their mental health at risk.

It was a break from the routine that we have had since we were 4 years old, where I was able to recharge my batteries for everything that a university career entails, since we have always been told that it is something very difficult. And lastly, ...

  Religion has been a difficult topic in some stages of my life. As I said in the first post, I was in a Catholic school since I was four years old. My parents formed me under that religion because according to them it was the right thing to do. My grandfather was a deacon in the church, and he was the one who baptized me and made me grow up in that environment. However, as I grew up, I stopped feeling comfortable. The moment when I felt the break was when I defined my sexuality, and I was rejected by my family and school. I felt very lonely during that time because of that situation, I distanced myself from many important people because the religion made them think differently. At school I had many talks about my sexuality and to know if I was sure about it. The school authorities asked my girlfriend and me not to be together at school because the boys or the nuns could see us. For this reason, I rejected religion for a long time, because it did not allow me to love freely. ...
