Hello classmates!

Today I’m going to talk about a place that I love. It’s a restaurant called “La Piccola Italia”. I like this place for two reasons: first  because is an Italian restaurant  and second, it’s an special place to my family because we always go there when we want to celebrate something or we just want to enjoy a nice meal.
This restaurant is close to the station “Vicuña Mackena”, in “La Florida”, and it´s close to my home, it take us like 15 minutes to get there.

Like I said before, is an Italian restaurant and it’s just delicious. My favorite meal is the “Tripasta Especial”, it has lasagna, gnocchi and ravioli, ñam ñam J

Actually, I love almost all the Italian restaurants, like other one called “Caprese”. The difference between the restaurant is that “Caprese” is more expensive  so I only go there when is a really really especial occasion. With my boyfriend we celebrate our anniversary there, and I had to save a lot of money, but it totally worth it.

And last but not least, is the restaurant “Ruby Tuesday”, is an American restaurant, but I always eat the Italian food, so I order the “Parmesan Chicken Pasta”. It has grilled chicken, pasta, and a lot of cheese! It’s very delicious!


Now I’m hungry and I want pasta :c

Hello friends!
Today I’m going to talk about the differentiation of the personality organization.
I will be based in the Otto Kernberg book named structured interview. And I’ll put focus on the table 1-1 “Differentiation of the personality organization”.
To make this clearer, you need to know that there are three different types of personality structures that Kernberg explain:
1.       Neurotic
2.       Borderline
3.       Psychotic
And also, for distinguish these three structures, there are structural standards:
1.       Integration of the identity
2.       Defensive Operations
3.       Reality test
It’s very difficult to separate those personalities. That’s why Kernberg did those standards. A little explanation is:
1.       How much one person can distinguish themselves from the others, and if the person have clear who is themselves, and who are the others.
2.       How that person defend themselves from the contradictions that can make in the interview with the psychologist
3.       How the person perceive the reality, what sense give it to the reality.

I’m not going to explain this with details, because it’ll take a long time, but that’s the basic and main structure. I choose this topic, because when I read it from university, I found it very interesting. It cost me to understand it, but once I did, I felt very happy (and I had a great mark in the test).
