Talking about me is usually
very hard for me to do. It doesn’t matter if it’s saying good or bad things. It’s
just not easy, I assume it’s because I show a part of myself. However, if I
need to than I will begin by telling you that I am about to turn twenty-three.
I am very happy, because I look back and I can say how much I have enjoyed
every day of my life. My nearest goal is to complete my bachelor’s degree,
and then I want to go to the medicine school. The bachelor’s degree I am
currently studying is in integrative biology. I choose biology because it was
my favorite class of during high school. I see life like a gift and for that
reason the present is called present, because it shows us the opportunity to
make or change our lives every day. That’s why I also want to study medicine because
I want to make a difference in the world and encourage the people I treat to
see their lives as a great opportunity to treasure.

The first place I chose
to share with you today is: Philadelphia*. I went on this trip when I was in
eleventh grade because I was part of a program called Talent Search. Talent
Search was a program for distinguished students in high school that were able
to demonstrate a large interest in their academic futures by maintaining high
G.P.A’s. The program chose two students from within the group to make this trip
to Philadelphia to be part of a presentation. I was one of the lucky two! Now,
when we got to Philadelphia, believe it or not, the presentation got cancelled.
So, we spent the trip just visiting museums, sight-seeing and eating at restaurants.
The best thing about the trip was spending the 4th of July at a huge
activity in the streets of the city. It was a great experience and I’ll never
forget it, since it was the only time I left Puerto Rico.
