Reunited: Faith No More's concert


The best concert I've ever seen (and, more than a concert, it was a life experience) was the Faith No More concert in La Florida Bicentenary Stadium, in 2009.

Faith No More is a band born in California, United States, which music usually mixes sounds of several music styles, always close to rock.

My expectations was so high: my favorite band, reunited after a long separation, in Chile.I remember to have waited very excited the time to buy my ticket.

The day of the concert I arrived very early, to be very close to the stage. The field was full of loyal fans. I enjoyed so much the opening acts, with Fiskales Ad Hoc and Sepultura: an excellent preamble for the leading show.

Close to 9 at night the leading show started. Faith No More played the song "Reunited", a cover from Peaches & Herb. That song describes the feeling of everyone present: "Reunited, and it feels so good!"

The next hours were fantastic! Singing all the songs, screaming, jumping and enjoying to the fullest.

When the concert ends I felt exhausted but full of happiness. That night was a dream came true.

Two special songs

Music is essential in my life. It is, maybe, the most loyal company in all moment. Music means an advice, a consolation, an instant of joy, according to context. As far back as I can remember I felt attracted for rock music. In part, that is because of my dad, who tuned in to Radio Futuro (88.9 FM in Chile) all my life long. For that reason I know a lot of rock songs, mainly from 80's and 90's. My favourite band is Faith No More. I remember I have been fascinated since the first time I listened "Ashes to ashes" on the radio, in 1997. Since that moment I waited patiently the opportunity to record this song in a tape. This particular song means a feeling of freedom for me (further the lyrics, the melodies of this song makes me feel like any negative thing in my life be forgotten when sounds the last note).

Postgraduate studies

One of my life goals is to live  out of Chile in future, in some country where quality of life is considerately better. It's even better if this country have a real welfare society. And, if is possible, I would like to study a PhD degree in this country. In particular, I really am attracted to University of Toronto’s Pharmaceutical Sciences PhD program, in Biomolecular Pharmaceutical Sciences. This PhD program has many aspects that interest me. For example, you can specialize in biopharmaceuticals study, an up to date subject in the rest of the world, but not much developed in Chile. If I get this PhD degree, I would research about new biopharmaceuticals development, and this field of activity likes me so much. Other very interesting fields of study are: “Basic pharmacokinetics and clinical research”,” Polymeric and nanomaterial-based drug delivery systems” and “Drug receptor interactions”. Even though this PhD program has different ways of entering, I interest by “P...

Changes to my study program

Hi everyone! This is our last blog session, so I want to take this opportunity to say goodbye. It has been a pleasure to read your posts and comments. The career of Chemistry and Pharmaceuticals in this university has had many changes, principally with study program changes. Like all change, there are modifications that mean important advances in the professional development of the students, while another changes, I think, are a setback. One of the things I didn’t like about study program changes is the omission of teacher Hernan Vergara’s subjects.   Teacher Vergara’s subjects (who’s actually retired), promoted the basic knowledge of our profession in the first career years. Matters as concepts of medicines, their classification and effects, therapies and related laws are basic knowledge that all students must to know. And, of course, I think all the students must to know about the History of Pharmacy, with the most important landmarks. Among the good study progr...
