Lately, one of my most important academic references is Max Weber, this man was a German lawyer, economist, political scientist and sociologist considered one of the fathers of sociological thought along with Karl Marx and Émile Durkheim, among others His thoughts and postulates were fundamental to the development of a modern and comprehensive sociology. For Max Weber, sociology should study the meaning and motives of the actions of individuals within society, the main focus being the understanding of social phenomena. Max Weber has a multicausal conception of social phenomena, unlike Marx, who gave economic factors a causal supremacy. The reality is complex, and it is necessary to approach it from the greatest number of perspectives.

Cheese bread is a Brazilian food made with Parmesan cheese, yuca flour, egg, oil, salt, and milk.  The mentioned ingredients are mixed in a bowl and made into small balls, then the dough is baked for a few minutes and that's it. It's a filling and very tasty meal, its texture is consistent and its flavor is spectacular, it can be eaten alone or as an accompaniment to other dishes. I love cheese bread because I really like the food with cheese, like pizza, cheese empanadas, etc. Also, its texture and taste are really awesome and it's not close to anything I've ever tried before... A few weeks ago, my girlfriend and I cooked cheese bread at home but they turned out oily and the parmesano chesse didn't really combined with the bread. Honestly, I didn't like it very much, I genuinely think the cheese bread of starbucks is insuperable!

I took this photo with my mother's camera on December 30, 2020,(as it appears in the photo). The photo shows my cat called Laucha (because she looks like a little mouse) with her newborn child, my cat had a serious problem before the birth because one of his children blocked the passage of the other babies, finally me and my mom went to the vet to perform an induced birth for my cat, since otherwise she would have died with her children inside. Fortunately, Laucha and her children survived and in this photo she and her children are sleeping peaceably. I really like this photo because when I found out that my cat and her children had survived I was relieved and happy that everything went well, after the cats were born, we had very nice moments with them.

My favorite piece of technology is my cellphone and i've have it since a few months, I use my cellphone for different activities, the first and the most important is like a communication artefact. I use WhatsApp and the call service all day to talk my friends, girlfriend, family, and classmates, and I also use to see a lot of multimedia services, like Netflix and YouTube. The application i more use in my cellphone is Instagram because that  this is useful for communicate and to entertain, I use the phone around 2 and 3 hours for day, is necessary use the phone in an interconnected world (unfortunately). In the actual society it would be hard no use a cellphone because you need to communicate, to work,  we need it for everything, but in the natural life the cellphone is totally dispensable
