Only the truth
and nothing but the truth
Well to be honest when I was about to finish school I wanted to study soooo many different things. The options at that time were music teacher, chemist and pilot, yeah pilot!!
So when the time came and I had my results my father asked me what I wanted to study and since he could tell that I was all over the place he said: Sorry but I won’t pay for your studies this year, you have to think about it and next year you can start. Of course I got really upset but now I can tell that it was the best idea ever!
When I was 10 years old, I remember that I was on holidays with my family in La Serena. So one day I was listening to music on my walkman and I listened to a song which I really liked. This was in 1994 so there was no Shazam, if you wanted to know the name of a song or artist you had to wait until the song was finished and hope that the name would be given at the end, sometimes this didnt happen.
I got the group-s name, it was The Backstreet Boys. As most of teenagers I loved the BSB I still love their music but I am not in love of Nick Carter or any other of the members hahaha
At this point I guess you should be asking yourselves Why my teacher is talking about the BSB? at the end believe me that you will understand....
Well so the year after I finished school, I decided to work as a babysitter and also studied at a Preuniversitario.
One day, one of my sisters that works as a flight attendance took me with her to New Zealand as a birthday gift. There I met a guy, his name is Daniel. So it was kind of a summer love and when I came back I still had feelings for him. I went to see him during that year 4 times and we started dating.

We talked about our future together so I thought, well why not to study something related with English. I love teaching and I love the Backstreet Boys so there you go, that’s why I am an English teacher now hahaha. I know it isn’t the best reason but now I cannot see myself doing something else. While I was studying I always thought I would teach little kids but when I finished my studies I got a job offer for teaching adults. I liked the idea of trying something different so here I am.
The lucky guy :)










wooow! someday I'll travel to New Zealand. that's my dream hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI love your story, Teacher :3
ReplyDeleteTo tell the truth, I firmly believe that there is nothing more rewarding than doing what one is passionate about and being happy with the choice of life chosen.
Regards!
I'm surprised, I did not think that you would like to be a pilot or a chemist, pilot of what? Do you like to fly? 😲😲😲
ReplyDeleteWow teacher!!!!!, I also wanted to be a pilot!! hahaha... don't give up, you can still be ;)
ReplyDeletewow The Backstreet Boys!! it is a great boy band, I grew up being a fan of some boy band like the jonas brothers (:
ReplyDeleteMiss, I really love your history and I can't believe that you found the love in other country and how "the lucky guy" helped you to choose your future
ReplyDeleteIt was really hard to understand the connection between BSB and being an english teacher haha I'm happy to know that you enjoy your choice and I hope to enjoy mine in the future.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
Hi teacher, i think that best decision is take a year to think in your future and realize about your preferences, and the things that you really want
ReplyDeleteHi Miss, The story about the decision of your profession is fascinating! because it mixes music and love.
ReplyDeleteThat is a funny and lovely story. I love how passionate you are with your work!
ReplyDeleteHow was your experience taking care children? I love The Backstreet Boys

ReplyDeleteI think that when we are little we are not very sure of what we want, it may be because we are influenced by TV, but to believe that there are so many things is great. (I think) hahaha
