Changes in my life There are moments in life when you feel that many things are going to change. This is one of them for me. For nearly three years, I’ve been working as a guide in a Science museum. It was a very entertaining job, I could never get bored! Every day, I had to show and explain some parts of the museum to children or teenagers that visited us. I also was in charge of performing some participative workshops related to sciences: chemical reactions, physics of pressure and light, technology... I even had the opportunity of practicing my English, as I sometimes had to guide international groups. These days I got very nervous. I was always thinking: “what would happen if they ask me something and I don’t know how to explain it in English?” Nevertheless, in general I enjoyed my job. Now things have changed a little bit. During the last year I’ve been specializing at Science communication. The main aim is, as the museum, sharing scientific knowledge with everybody. Science isn’t just for scientists, it’s necessary for everyone, and we all should be aware of that. But, unfortunately, my job at the museum didn’t give me enough money to live all my life. I’ve been forced to change. But that’s not a bad thing at all. I feel it like an opportunity to progress. I’ve found a new job in a communication department in a Biology organization. From September, I’m going to help with the preparation of events related to the biology, health and biotechnology areas, including hospitals, research centres and industry. It is a completely different task to do, but I won’t miss my two interests: science and communication. And I’m sure there’ll be some things in English too... so I need to practice during the summer! I have to be honest: I’m frightened. But I’m also excited and willing to begin this new adventure. Many things are going to change, but I’m just hoping that in a year I’m as happy and motivated as I am right now.
