I went on an end-of-school excursion with my classmates to Lake Calima in Cali. We stayed at a farmhouse for a week and did all kinds of activities, from horseback riding to kayaking. There were a total of 12 people, and I was extremely happy with them. Without a doubt, I would repeat that day.]]> 2023-06-08 18:55:55 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618561238 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618585313 I remember being at my best friend's house. This was last year, and I was having a mango juice she offered me. After finishing the juice, I went to put the glass in the kitchen, and when I placed it on the table, I put it too close to the edge, and it fell and broke. I felt so embarrassed and uncomfortable, but my friend who was with me at that moment told me not to worry, that everything was okay.]]> 2023-06-08 19:43:41 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618585313 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618592421 My favorite trip was on November 11, 2017. That day, I went on vacation to Cartagena with my mom and my best friend. I remember we took an early flight and arrived in Cartagena in the afternoon. We stayed at a hotel in a area called Bocagrande for three days and visited different places like the walled city, the beaches, the San Felipe Castle, and more. I was extremely happy and excited to be there since I had wanted to visit Cartagena for a long time.]]> 2023-06-08 19:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618592421 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618595724 A sad day that will always remain in my mind was the day my first cat died. It was June of 2012, and her name was Linda. I remember waking up very early that day with a strange feeling that something was wrong. When I went downstairs to the first floor of the house, I found my cat in the middle of the living room. As I went to pet her, I realized she had passed away. I felt incredibly sad and devastated. Many emotions were swirling through my mind at that time, but it was a process that I was able to come to terms with.]]> 2023-06-08 20:06:55 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2618595724 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622578759 One of the moments when I was most scared was when I visited an amusement park in Cali. This happened in 2019. I was with my friends, visiting this amusement park, and we wanted to go into one of its attractions, which was a haunted house. At first, it wasn't very scary, but when we were halfway through, the lights started to go out, there were lots of screams, things were touching us and grabbing us. I was very scared and wanted to run away from there, but actually, it was an experience that was spectacular to live through.]]> 2023-06-13 19:21:08 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622578759 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622585291 One day in August 2021, I went with my friends to visit a municipality called San Gil. During our visit, we came across an attraction that I had wanted to try for a long time: bungee jumping. I decided to take the plunge from a height of 70 meters over the Fonce River in this extreme activity. I was very nervous, but the moment I jumped, I felt a void in my stomach and the adrenaline rushing through me. It was incredibly exciting and, I must say, a bit crazy, but I had a great time.]]> 2023-06-13 19:32:12 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622585291 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622593638 December 2019, Graduating from school was a major milestone in my life. Walking across that stage, receiving my diploma, and reflecting on the journey filled me with pride and excitement for the future. It marked the beginning of a new chapter, reminding me of the power of hard work and the joy of achieving my goals.]]> 2023-06-13 19:44:50 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622593638 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622599633 A moment etched in my heart is when I traveled solo for the first time. It was a crisp morning in September, I went to bogota, and as I boarded the plane, a whirlwind of emotions took hold of me. Excitement, nervousness, and a sense of adventure filled my being. The anticipation of exploring new places  fueled my spirits. Stepping into the unknown, I embraced the freedom and independence that solo travel offered. It was a transformative experience that opened my eyes to the vastness of the world and my own capabilities.]]> 2023-06-13 19:52:45 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622599633 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622603649 One cherished memory that stands out is the day I overcame my fear of public speaking. I have always been a very shy person when it comes to speaking in public, and one day at school, I had to give a presentation in front of the entire student body. I was extremely nervous, my hands were sweating, and I could hardly breathe – I almost fainted, I must say. As I introduced myself, I took a deep breath and focused on a fixed point. I was genuinely trembling with nerves, but I tried to finish the presentation as quickly as possible. Since that day, my fear of public speaking has decreased.]]> 2023-06-13 20:00:29 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622603649 glenmenaca https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622612514
A moment that I will forever cherish is the day I competed in a big tournament. I was part of my school's chess team and also represented my municipality in the league in Colombia. I had participated in several tournaments within Colombia, such as in Pasto or Cali. But I believe the most significant one for me was the day my team and I went to represent Colombia in the Carchi 2015 Binational Games in chess. We competed against Ecuador for several days, and it was undoubtedly the largest tournament I had ever attended in my life. I was extremely happy and excited, and I was incredibly proud to represent Colombia. It will forever be one of the best days of my life.]]> 2023-06-13 20:17:35 UTC https://padlet.com/glenmenaca/4x48xlel3ttuju11/wish/2622612514
