In the following lines I'm going to give my opinion about the situation of my country. The first phase of the election in Peru this year show us clearly that peruvians doesn't trust in traditional political parties. That was clear during the 90s after the first government of APRA. Fujimori appeared as a new alternative against the inminnent economical adjusts that Vargas LLosa was proclaming. But Fujimori did it exactly the same things he promised not to do it. Of course, at the beginning many people agreed with his political desicions because he seemed to fight against the corruption of politicians. Nothing more far from the reality ... That change produced an untrust feeling respect to politicians.
On the other hand, president Toledo doesn't change anything substancial about the heritage of Fujimori. The same economical model, the same corrupted estructures, etc, etc. Toledo obtained around 30% in the elections of 2000, of course he didn't represent the majority preference. People choosed him because they wanted to get rid of Fujimori, Montesinos and his corruption.
We know most of people choose their candidates according to their convenience and that's all. That only increase the corruption. They only want to accomodate in a convenient position so their situation could be improved. The candidates are there. We only have to choose, but many of us don't feel represented by him or her and the blank vote become a possibility. It's hard but it's true.
Well, I say "because of that I'll vote in blank". And I always do that, but for example Fujimori took advantage from this since the blanks benefit the winner... But this is another thing.
So now we face the question ¿Ollanta o Alan? Obviusly, Lourdes Flores and his party will prefer Alan Garcia because Ollanta Humala seems radical. I don't think that so much. There are several interests behind him since he is supported economically by people who are interested in keeping the presents conditions that benefit them.
Contradictions and contradictions ... Five new years of our lives are coming. Many people is getting older and the decisions are moving to the new generation who most of time doesn't know how to decide or what to do ... Alan GarcĂa is more experienced in the government. About Ollanta HUmala, according to the history, he is an incognit. Now we know there will be a debate between both candidates and I think that event will reflect the strenghs and weaks of them.

What a pain!
Sometimes I feel as if I were loosing the control of things. There is something that is producing a strange effect on me. Maybe it's time to change my life in a different way according to the circunstances. I understand that if we really want to get a goal it's necessary to make an effort.
Life is a constant fight in which people have opportunities. The fact is that we have to confront against the dangers and difficulties. They allways stay with us. Well, since there nothing I can do about that, it would be better to be prepared. At this time, it looks like studying abroad could be a good change for me. Actually, I was preparing myself to do that but there were some facts that have delayed me in this proposal.
On the other hand I hope get knowledge about new cultures. I know that living in another country has advantages and disadvantages hovewer my goal is to research a lot about my major so I could contribute better to the development of science. The influence of science and technology is too strong in our lives and it's increasing in an uncontrollated way so I think we don't have choice: we must to learn more in order ro understand more the world we're living...
Regards.
