2012 was a year, which I could improve, revise, learn, and have fun. First of all I create new friendship more that I could think. It is impressive to have friends that come from different countries just in one room, talking and learning about a new culture.
When I moved to Panama it was not a big deal, but I am enjoying my days here because is a new adaptation and creation of my life in one country. In school I had a great time especially doing the PYP Exhibition because it could get me more close to my new friends in Panama. Also I have been learning mandarin. When I was told that I was going to learn mandarin I get impressed because most of people speak mandarin as they say in the future mandarin would be the language most spoken.
Through the year I have been travelling the most part of 2012, having new adventures and new places to visit. I went to Aruba for my grandparents gold anniversary, also to places inside Panama as el Valle made me experience zip lining for the first time and I enjoy it a lot. But the trip that I honestly love the most was when I went to United States and stayed in San Francisco, California. It was a great city full of houses and especially the Golden Gate Bridge, which make the city more fabulous. We cross the state of California in car and we get to Nevada. In Nevada my brother and me really had fun with the snow and also did some hiking with my family.
Apart from travelling since the year started I decided to do a new sport. A sport that combines three really athletic sports just in one. That is called Triathlon. I had been training a lot. At the first time it was difficult and I get tired in a second but then I started liking it because I started getting adapted with it. Then when I get the inspiration to keep going further. I decided to participate in a Triathlon competition. I think was one of the best experiences I ever had because I had never forced my self too much. Obviously I didn’t have the first place, the goal for me was finish until the end.
My year was full of wonders and happiness. Well I had many fights but I tried to erase them out of memory. I also had myself in spots that I didn’t want to go through but obviously we need to still deal with them. Through my year I have shown being risk-taker, taking the unknown knowable for my self and accepting new opportunities that creates more experience of life for myself. 2012 1 year 12 months, a entire year of new adventures.
