I was 5 years old, I was nervous about going to school that day, my grandmother accompanied me because I lived with her in Arauquita-Arauca. When we arrived, I remember crying when my grandmother left.

My first grade teacher

When I was 6 years old I lived in Arauquita, Arauca, and I attended the Gabriel García Márquez school. My teacher always wore heels and I asked her if I could borrow them. One day she gave me some heels that she no longer wore. But my mother threw them away and I felt very sad.

Happiest day of my life

It was when my sister was born and I saw her for the first time. I was 10 years old and I was very excited. I was accompanied by my entire family. At my grandparents' house, when Dad arrived with Mom and my little sister, I was very happy to finally see her.

the day I met my best friend

I was in sixth grade when I met her because the teacher paired us up to do group work. At first, I felt strange with her and wanted to change partners, but then we started to get along very well. Currently, we are still friends and we like to go out everywhere.

my favorite trip

It was 1 year ago, in December with my family, we went to San Andrés Islands, I was happy because I had never seen the sea. I got to know its beautiful beaches and its gastronomy. And I learned to dance champeta with one of the women from that island.

An accident

When I was 11 years old, my cousin Catalina took me to the playground to spend an afternoon together. I was crossing the handrail, but my hands were sweaty, and my cousin got careless at that moment and I fell, scraping my knees. I felt pain and nervous because they were going to scold us.

The day we adopted my dog

Six months ago, a friend told me he had a puppy on his farm that didn't have a home. I told him to show me some pictures of her, and she looked beautiful to me. So, I wanted to adopt her, and I went to pick her up with my mother in her car. Since then, she became my best companion.

The day I broke the blender

When I was 9 years old, we were playing soccer in the living room with my sister and I accidentally broke my mom's blender. I was worried my mom would notice, so I placed a glass jar on top of her. However, the next day she realized it.

A sad moment

The day my cousin died was the saddest day for my entire family. It happened two years ago, we were walking in the river for my grandfather's birthday and a flood occurred before my cousin could get out of the water. We were all worried and in a lot of pain.

One day I sang to my mom.

I was 13 years old and my mom had a birthday, so I wrote a song that I had composed for her. When we were all gathered at home, I got up and sang my song a cappella. At that moment I was very nervous and I forgot a lot about the song. But my mother hugged me and kissed me.
