Adios El Salvador, see you next year

Last day in ESA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!For the ones who don´t know, there is something i need to tell you! one of my biggest dreams have finally come true; i just cant explain how i feel now, there are lots of mixed emotions inside me.
 Tomorrow i will be leaving my country to study in the United States  a whole year :), i must accept that mi mami y mi papi were right. They used to tell me "hija, tenes que ser paciente, Dios siempre tiene un proposito para cada uno de nosotros, no te desesperes / Be patient, God has always a purpose for each of us", and in the twinkling of an eye, these words became a reality .
 Exactly a year ago, i was struggling against many situations that put me very vulnerable physically and emotionally: injuries, sickness, problems with sports authorities, etc. i remember myself feeling sooo depressed seeing a lot of corruption, zero support  and unfearness towards us, my dad´s horrible illiness that  thank God at the end was controlled, and a final irreparable situation that blacked the first half of 2010, the passing of my closest cousing  =(, i was devastated and frustrated, there were moments where i felt useless and  worthless, a fit of anger seized me because i couldnt do anything to make things work out again; at the same time, it seemed that all my efforts were not paying off, at that momment i couldnt understand that you cannot do anything to avoid those situations, it´s something out of human control. I always tried not to dissapoint my teachers and get good grades, i reminded myself i  wouldnt let these situations break me down because i was determined to put aside the problems and move forward with my life. 
My parents were always very supportive, their advise is always a key ,helpful and wise, they are the only ones i owe so much, i owe them the person i am now . They always enophazised me to be patient, not to let anything nor anyone put me aside the right path and keep the humbleness that i was taught since i was a kid.  It´s been a long journey with ups and downs,though. I think life is a balance between what is or isnt right to be done, you choose the right desitions in order to succeed in it, it´s all about learning new experiences that make us grow as professionals as well as persons. 
Today, things seem very different, a new challenge is coming and i am going to get the best out of this new blessing! I am quite scared though, i havent been so long away from home, but i bet this experience will be unique.I feel soo grateful with the people i have been surrounded by: family,  uni friends, teammates , neighbours, coaches, teachers ,  Marta, Fernando, Carolyn and World Learning who made this possible. I´m looking forward to this experience and I promise i will try to learn as much as possible... The only message i would like to give all my readers is not to give up, please, believe in yourself and your capacity and as San  Francisco de Asis  quotes "Start by doing what´s necessary then what's possible and suddenly you're doing the impossible" , NADA ES IMPOSIBLE, NUNCA LO OLVIDEN.


I will be updating as soon as i start my journey... okey my friends pray for me and wish me luck :)
