Biography: First Day of School

First Day of School

5:00
Oh man, it was only five o'clock in the morning. Today was a big day I was both excited and scared. It had been three months since we had moved from Mexico to the United States. I was still adapting in my new surroundings but I was excited to go to school. I rushed to my parent's room, waking them up to take me to school.
"Not, in two more hours," they said sleepily. But I could not go back to sleep. I got my clothes ready and played with my toys. Finally mom made breakfast and I quickly ate it ready to go to school. Our house was only three blocks away from school so mom decided to walk me there. When we arrived I was many other kids too and wondered how many friends I was going to make. We finally arrived in my classroom. My teacher had a friendly face and greeted me with a smile. The classroom was full of color, there was a sandbox in the corner, a playhouse and many books to read. I quickly sat on the squared mat ready for my day to begin.

My name is Monica Avila, I was born in Guanajuato, Mexico and moved to the U.S. when I was five, I can speak Spanish, English and a little bit of Portuguese (currently learning). I am a senior here at OU (Wow can't believe I'm saying senior time flies by so fast). I am a Health and Exercise Science major.

From Beaches to Mountains.. Favorite Places

Ipanema Beach in Rio de Janeiro, a picture I took from my trip in 2016) I traveled to Rio in the summer of 2016. It was my first time to fly outside of the country, I love learning about different cultures and places, so you can say I was super excited! Ipanema Beach was less than a 10-minute walk from the hostel I was staying in. I always have lived in landlocked states so this was the first time I got to see the ocean and it was AMAZING! As I sat listening to the waves I could also see children playing in the water, families having picnics, ongoing volleyball games, couples on dates, people doing yoga and capoeira (an Afro-Brazilian martial art) classes, people running, jogging and surfing, stands selling coconut water (Delicious), other drinks and types of foods, it was like getting a small glimpse of Rio's citizens' daily lives. One of my favorite parts was looking at the sunrises and sunsets. Ipanema Beach...
