Autobiography
My Past
When I look to my past, I just have to say that in all my life I have been good and happy. I was born in 1978, in Villavicencio, Colombia. I don't remember much about my first years. Most of the memories that I have came from stories, my mom told me. She told me that I started to walk when I was eleven months old, and to talk when I was one year and four months old. Then, at the age of five, I went to school for the first time. The first day that I went to the school, I was very excited and nervous. I still remember that, the night before to this day, I couldn't sleep. Two years later, I started my elementary school. In those years, my life was very happy except for the death of my grandparents because I really loved them, and I still miss them very much. I remember that I used to sleep in the house of my grand parents when my parents let me. After elementary school, I went to high school. I really enjoyed those years because I had great friends. Everyday we used to meet after school in a park near my house to talk and play volleyball. My best year in high school was the last one, but at the same time, it was the most difficult because I had to decide which field I was going to study. Finally, I decided that I wanted to study business administration. When I went to college, many things changed in my life. First of all, I had to leave the nest, and go to another city, and live by myself. Also, I had to adjust to the new system of grades in college. I also met new people. At this moment, I haven't finished my college. I came here because one requirement to complete my major is that I need to pass the TOEFL test in my college before I graduate.
My Present And future
At this moment many have been changed in my life. First of all, now i am living in America. i came here because i wanted to study English. i want to leran English because, when you know this language, it is easier to get a good job, or move around the world. Therefore, I am planning to stay here until I learn enough to communicate fluently. However, my mostinteresting experience here has been metting people from different cultures and customs.
I have many plans for my future. After finish my studies, I will go back to Colombia to finish my college. When i finish it, I planning come back here, or go to Europe and study a degree. Another plan that I have is studying something related to photography because that is my favorite hobby. After that, I want to go back to my country and work because I love my country and think is the best place to live.
