Everything was difficult at first, I had no prospect of studying, had already failed two years in high school, I met the Colorado campus on the internet soon I signed up, because I knew that ifro teaching was one of the best.

So I started to organize the paperwork, my parents did not believe that I really wanted to go to school, they said that I could not bear to study.

Some time passed and they saw that I really wanted this, and they started to help me.

I remember that my first day at school did not know many people, but I started making friends quickly. On the second day of school, I went to visit the institution and was impressed by the size of the school.

I do not regret this choice, I met a lot of people and I learned a lot as I intend to learn more every day. So that's why my first day here on campus is one of the most important to me.
 

Hello, my name is Erminia, and my birthday was last Tuesday, I completed 17 years.

This day I went to school as always, it was a normal day. I got home at 6:00 p.m and took a shower and got ready to leave. However some cousins, uncles and aunts arrived with a cake, soft drinks and gifts.

I celebrated, we eat and laughed. It was 7:30 p.m, we said goodbye. So, my sister Joana and me, we went to a smack bar to meet my boyfriend and my friend Vilma.

 At snack bar, we talked, laughed, we sing and we eat , at 10:00 p.m I went back

to my house. And this was may last brithday, on November 14. Bye!!

Moments later we went back to sing happy birthday because it was already almost in the hour. He/she was being long a lot, being like this I and Alessandra stole some of the candies that were in the table without somebody noticed their lack. Therefore after that, we sang happy birthday and we began to eat the cake. Instants then, we got to remove the children that were in it polish-polishes him/it so that I and my sisters could also jump and meanwhile, my father and my uncles tried to help and to save the horses that were in their stalls. At the end, it was an entertaining and sad day for the happened at the end of the party. All were moved, for that the party closed up earlier.

       So that day was very important because it reminds me of a moment that gives me much joy, Peace, tranquiliy and harmony with my friends. And there was little time left for me to leave the house and to walk alone, for one day i did not suffer because of it, and it did me a lof of good because i learned many new things to help me in my life.

After the end of the literary analysis, we were called to the schoolyard where we received thanks and make the books to become more influential in people's daily lives because a book can open their minds, expand their horizons for new religious ideas and more. Then we got the applauses and took a picture to save in the memory.

This literary analysis was about one hour per person, that is, when we finished it was almost at the end of class, so we were allowed to go home early and the rest of this day is quite everyday of a normal people.

Every day when I finished eating lunch, I used to have dessert of the hotel, sweet of milk with chocolate and jelly is a delicacy. I loved it. It is worthwhile to say also that when I entered in the swimming pool as I am very small, and I don't know how to swim and I drowned a little bit! Until that it was a good experience, at least I liked this to discover that I need to learn to swim urgent.
 When I noticed the event was ending already, and I needed to return to the Campus I was very sad! I didn't want that ended those moments, as they say everything that is good ends fast. It was the best experience that I already had thanks to institution that I study had that opportunity that many wanted to have. A week I passed living new things, learning new things, creating new conceptions. I took advantage the moments and the opportunities a lot.

               It was a very happy day, where in the Catholic Church of the city of Seringueiras I confirmed my sacrament of baptism. I felt very happy, because it was very exciting, I received the Holy Spirit and I swore that I would continue following my religious life together with my parents and of all that were there present.

               I chose a person that I really like to be my godmother, because she is a person who from the first day I talked to her we got along well. Her name is Lara Tais. She was part of a moment that marked my life, I chose her because I knew that when I needed her, she would be willing to help me, and that I would always be encouraged to continue in the Christian life.

               On this day I felt great happiness, because it was 9 years of catechesis, and I felt God's presence in these 9 years. But in the chrism I felt that I was on the right path and that a new journey was planned for me. Only in my confirmation did I realize how good God is. On this day that I really began to know the love of God. Well, I doubted God’s existence a lot, and I asked several questions, because in my childhood I lost my brother, I was very new, but I suffered a lot from that.

 This day was a very striking day, that I felt very happy, because I knew that I was doing the right thing, and that many good things were yet to come and to happen.

When it started to stay night, the weather was getting cooler there were many people, my friends by the end was not even recognizing them. They were so dirty that they were paints, but the party was for that to have fun, get dirty, enjoy living a life colorful forget the rest of the world, because when we are with our friends is to have fun . The party ended up around at 4:30 in the morning, when my friends and I were leaving the party all over the dirty streets. That's why I'd never forget this color party, it was one of the best I've ever been with my friends.

For several days, we were planning to go to a very beautiful place so we could spend the day at the edge of a river, bake a meat there for lunch.

And when it was that day, a friend of my aunt told her that here in Colorado had a fantastic place, a beautiful waterfall with crystal clear water and that the place is beautiful.

So we decided to go there, so we started to prepare. When Sunday came, we left home early, carrying food, roast beef, soda, and other things.

As the road has no asphalt, it was very tiring to get there, as this waterfall is about 24,8 miles away from Colorado from the West and received a name from Cerradão, which is what people call this place.

When we were going we did not expect it had sand on the road, and this sand made us almost give up going on as it was too bad to ride the motorcycle on account of the sand.

But when we arrived at the waterfall, all the weariness of the trip disappeared when we came across a paradisiac place, we were delighted. And the first thing we did was get in the water and start swimming because the day was already very hot and we wanted to freshen up.

After we swam, wewent to prepare the barbecue, and I was left with the part to go looking for firewood to light the fire. And my 7-year-old cousin was so charmed that she did not get out of the water at all.

After I had lunch, I went swimming again, and went under the waterfall and discovered a cave behind the waterfall, where I took several pictures to show to my friends. When it was already dark, we packed up the things we had brought and collected all the garbage we had made, in order to leave the place always preserved. And as I found the place very beautiful, I plan to return there soon.
