When I was 14 years old, I told my parents that I didn't wanted to go to the school anymore. I felt like I was wasting my time and that there was so many things I wanted to learn.
So, I ended my high-school online while taking classes of piano, hip-hop, jazz dance, korean and german ( languages that I will totally forget later hah).

I guess this must have been around the time of when I was 12 years old. I just started learning music and piano here in Los Andes, but that was almost a miracle because my audition didn’t go well. The audition was directed by the prime master Maria Barbara (an old woman with about 80 years) and I had never played a real acoustic piano before.

So I played a song I learnt on Youtube in the worst possible way a song can be played in a Steinway piano. This scary old woman said I sat like I was in a bus. Then, she said I was too old to start learning piano, because kids usually start learning at 6. But, finally she said “ok, you can start learning. But always remember you can switch to an easier instrument”. Off course, after this audition every time I saw Maria Barbara I got paralyzed remembering all the things she said to me that day.

But one day, it was the final exam day and my father came to cheer me up. When it was my turn, my father waited outside, I entered the room and SHE WAS THERE. When the exam ended, I went out the room red like a tomato and shaking. My father asked me how did it go and I told him I got paralyzed because Maria Barbara was there. He said that it was ok and hugged me. We stayed there for half an hour talking and Maria Barbara went out for a snack. When my father saw her, he reached her and said “Hey I want to talk with you”. I was like “nooooo, what are you doing”. But wait a minute. It gets better. He TOLD HER THAT I WAS AFRAID OF HER. She just laughed and said "BOOH!". Yeah sure, very funny -_- .

Since that day, I became very close to Maria Barbara and started learning a lot from her. Four years later, I started wining piano contests and she told me that I PLAYED IN A REALLY PROFFESIONAL WAY. I realized how my fear was preventing me from learning. She was right in everything she said in my audition, but it was only when I left my fear, that I started to improve.

Thank you Maria Barbara, RIP.

It was 2016, my first year in the university. I had this really cool teacher that gave us extra points if we danced in the differential calculus class. It was there where I met HIM.
I had some expirience on dancing before, so I started teaching my classmates. But HE was special. I felt like everytime I was with him I was comfortable. We have always had this deep conection. We started talking about EVERYTHING. University, family, sense of life, movies, dreams, jokes, deep troubles.... everything.
We both agreed that we didn't wanted a short relationship, we were no looking for a relationship, so we stayed as best friends for 3 years. Then I left Bogota for my academical exchange in Mexico. HE TRAVELED TO MEXICO AND ASKED ME TO BE HER GIRLFRIEND.
I might update some pics later.

I was doing my internship at Cornell University and found out that Nigara was close to Ithaca. So I said... why not?
Honestly, I thought my parents would disagree, because the REALLY have taken care of me during my whole life (being the youngest daughter isn't easy hah). BUT, they saw I had my whole plan, so they agreed :D.
IT WAS CRAZYY! I remember that I brought my canadian VISA so I can cross the rainbow bridge. I went to Canada for some hours that day, watched the fireworks, stared at the falls. Everything was perfect, I was so happy. UNTIL I went back to the US, and the inmigration officer asked for my DS 2019. I forgot that since I was in an internship, I HAD TO TAKE THE DS2019 FORMAT TO ENTER THE US.
OH.
NO
I looked at the officer almost crying, telling him that I forgot that form, that I had to go back to Ithaca and finish my internship. THANKS GOD, he letted me in.
It was my first time sleeping in a hostal. My bus back to Ithaca left me so I had to spent the night in the bus terminal.... I really grew up a LOT during that trip.
I might update some pics later.
