A subject you enjoyed studying this semester

Hi all! I was really enjoyed this third semester in the college, most of the things are really interesting, especially that the assignatures that talk abot woods and naturals ecosystems. So i really enjoy (cause i wasn`t finish yet) "structures and functions of ecosystems" (or EFE in spanish). It`s awesome all this knowledge, but it`s hard learn and understand so much process and concepts in short time, but i really join to put my mind to study all this stuffs. I know from back time that this assignature will really like me, it`s my favorite thing until today. Other assignature that i enjoyed in past semester was athletism, that was i like so much to run, do physical exercises and move, i must confess that was my better number in the average of tests. Next time i want to join to a similar assignature like is "phisical condition" maybe the next semester, to probe that i like this things and i train often in my neighborhood or maybe other things like judo in Veterinary Faculty. See you in the next time!

My favorite tree or plant

I must confess that i´m a lover since my childhood of the plants of all the native chilean woods, it gets me high motivation of understand it and proud of show it´s characteristics to take care of it. My favorite tree is strange now in sclerphyllus forest, cause it needs a lot of spcific things and a lot of water, things that are in lack now with the action of humans, so it´s very strange to find this tree, called Beilshmiedia miersii (difficult name, i know) but is also called "Belloto del norte" and i think that is the most beautiful tree that i climb, and the shadow that gives it`s fresh and well smelled.

 This is Beilshmiedia miersii

Other plant that i like so much it´s from the sclerophyllus forest too, but it`s a kind of liana associated to bigger trees, called Lardizabala biternata, i like so much cause it`s fruit is delicious but his flower it`s so dark violet that looks like black, first time i saw the flower in my forest adventures i think that i was dreaming, cause it`s almost unbelievable the beautiful color.
This two species are in danger of extinction, and most of the chilean people don`t know this beautiful plants and his propieties, for ignorance most of people prefers exotic ad outside plants, while the native woods (and uniques in the world) are in danger of dissapear.
