POST 4>> MY FAVORITE PHOTO

 


This photo reflects the most recent achievement in chess and the beautiful family I formed in 2023. Here we are receiving the University champions cup. After almost a year of teamwork we were able to be crowned champions of the University of Chile for the first time in our history! This happened on Saturday, October 14th of this year and it was the best tournament I have played this year. I won the University “classic” against the best player of the National Team. Additionally, I took the first place in the individual table for the first time.

This photo also has a story of effort, dedication, work, commitment and unity. It represents the achievement of a whole year! My story in the team begins in 2019, and since then I had promised Professor Pablo Calvo that we would become champions. Unfortunately the professor died last year and the promise remained as a debt. On Saturday I was able to fulfill my promise and the victory is dedicated to him.

This will be by far my biggest chess tryumph while I've been in university.

As a JGM family we have made history!

Since I started University I have had physics classes and since I like to study a lot with books I found ProyectoDescartes as an entertaining way to learn physics interactively and by simulating situations. It is a website that contains interactive books with demonstrations, explanations and simulators and is very similar to the structure of the classes. It has books on physics, biology, chemistry and even mathematics. I use this page very frequently whenever I have to study for a test, and it is the most useful tool to understand concepts that I do not understand in classes. I like this page because it teaches you the concepts or phenomena in a more visual way. Furthermore, the demonstrations or explanations are very clear. It has animations and images, which makes learning more entertaining. It is a platform with multiple interesting books. There are many topics that you can study and that may interest you. It is a good website that teaches the same content in a different way. Here I...

Act 1. Where I come from?

 I live in the Metropolitan Region, specifically in Melipilla. I was born in the Campo Lindo sector of  Melipilla and then I moved to the countryside when my brother Marcelo was born. We currently live in Villa Galilea with my family. It is a very quiet place and there is not contamination. It is nice to live in the cuntryside.  In the future, I would like to live in the south of Chile, near Concepción or Chillán. But I have also thought of living in Melipilla or Santiago, because I will be close to my family and I will be possible to play more chess tournaments.
