When I’m asked who I am I can’t help thinking that scene of “Alice in Wonderland” by Lewis Carrol when the caterpillar asks Alice: “WHO R U?” and she can’t give the answer he’s looking for.
I’m a very imaginative person, my head is always working, picturing things and analyzing. I have a very strong character and determination, but I’m also very sweet and loving. To describe me a little better, I can tell you I love arts above anything else, I’m eager to learn and discuss, I have an inner nerd that comes out sometimes, (e.g. I love Sheldon Cooper, Bazzinga)I’m a dancer, a reader, a good babysitter and I think life is all about enjoying things with a good sense of humor.
My parents divorced when I was about a year old, so I always lived between three homes: my dad’s, my mom’s, and my grandmother’s place. Some think of me as a nomad, but I never felt like that before I came to New York. In Venezuela I was always surrounded by my loved ones and had a very tight schedule. Here in NY, well, it’s all new! To resume, there are lots of changes going on in my life right now and I’m kind of freaking out.
My biggest concern is to be able to build my own new life here, because I’m very shy and believe it or not it has taken my greatest effort just to exchange a few words with some of you. However, I expect to take the best advantage out of this experience, because I believe its easy to graduate from college but its very hard to actually take everything you want out of it.
To describe my eagerness for life, I’m posting a very famous quote, almost “cliché”, but I still like it:
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain.
I hope this kind of answer is what you were looking for.
