MY LIFE

       I
t could be really diffcult about oneself because it is easier to talk about topics like global warming, corruption, etc. However, it is important to take a short moment to express our feelings. I hardly ever talk about myself because people tend to judge and evaluate others with greater certainty when they communicate something very peculiar about themselves. Although I would like to share some situations of my life .

       I born on july 15 of 1994 in the house of my grandparents.
My parents are Sara and Jorge, and I am the younger sister of my two sister, Claudia and Norka, and my two brothers, Marcel and Verzier- he is de. At the age of 3, I suffered a car accident with my parents and my older brother Verzier and my sister Claudia because the car the car collided with another car. I broke my legs. My mother broke several of her ribs. My father broke his head and had other injuries. My sister hit her face against the seat and ended with a broken jaw, but my brother went through the worst part because he dead. His body ended burned because the car was on fire after my parents, my sister and I were taken off the car .Althought the firemen tried to rescue him, they could not because his body was stuck with the irons.Well, it is sad to remember those kind of things.

       I was in therapy over one year because I could not walk
. Years later of this tradegy, I had problems with motor coordination in the kindergarten because I could not recognize and follow directions; for example, when someone told me to walk on the right, I went on the left. That is why a teacher recommended my parents to take ballet classes to improve my motor coordination. Having taken these classes, my motor coordination improved and a goal was born. My goal was being a good dancer. I tried to be the best even my problems made it difficult.

      At the age of 9, my ballet teacher commented to my parents how good I was at dancing, and she suggested them that I should go to Lima to iprove my skills and be trained at the Municipal Ballet of Lima. However, my father had to get me out of ballet classes because he could not pay for them. Although I stopped my classes, I trained hard by myself watching videos, but a problem made me stop dancing. I was training, and suddendly I decided to atand up over my toes without warming them up, so I broke three toes of the right foot, and it was so painful that i could not walk well. After years of therapy, I liked to train again but I could not because my legs lost energy and force after many times of therapy, so I when I trained, I really get tired. Doctor adviced me to stop training, but I did not want it.

       One day, I was going around the culture house, but sudendly I have seen a group of people who performed stunts, well-known as B-boys; they practiced break dance, so I always went there to see them.Then I met them, and they suggested me to practice break dance to
strengthen my body, I did it and now I'm part of that group. The last year I applied to D1 contest to find new talents, and I won an scholarship; then I joined to the university, and now I am going to finish ICPNA courses.

       To sum up, I think that God put many obstacles to prove how strehgth I am. Things happen because of something. Although I suffered many dramatic situations, I consider myself a lucky person because I have a good family and good friends who always were with me when I had problems. I am really thankful with God to permit me to still alive and enjoy my life.
