Emily's timeline

  • First ballet recital

    For my first ballet recital we represented Pinocchio.
    I was part of the animals of the forest, I was a bunny. I was so excited about this because it was my first recital, all my family was excited too because my aunt was a ballet teacher and she motivated me to have this passion.
  • Mathias was born

    After 8 years my parents finally decided to have another child, it was only my brother Sebastian and I, but it wasn't a good relationship between us I mean we are siblings but it was complicated at the same time. He didn't like to play what I wanted to play what I wanted to play. But when Mathias was for I was he only girl and it was so weird.
  • Ballet graduation

    So I was in a school where after 3 year you can graduate and after another 5 years you have the option to graduate as a ballet teacher and work in that school. I couldn't make it because I broke my knee.
  • Moved to United States

    It was one of the hardest time of my life. For me my grandparents are like my second parent because I used to spend most of my time with them, my grandfather used to pick me up everyday after school and my ballet class, my grandmother was my best friend and I love when some of my stories of my problems are related to her life. Because I got my residence I had to come here and I had to leave them in Ecuador. I don't want them to die if I'm not with them.
  • Congress of Futures Scientists and Technologies

    So I was nominated to represent the school in this congress of Future Scientist and Technologies which was amazing experience, I learned about leaders, how to become a good leader and learned more about science and math, I met people from the NASI.
    I met a lot people from all over the country and they were so awesome, like we become friends with them so fast since we all have the same dreams and I felt like we were the same person. I loved it!
