This is my story

Hello hello, beautiful and blossoming community of Steemit.

I am very excited to be part of this new project, first of all I introduce myself (in chronological order).

My name is Alison Partera (Ali for friends, feel free to use it) I was born on Friday, March 15, 1996 in Caracas, Venezuela, I am 22 years old.

I'm a Pisces and although I've been denying this sign since I was a little girl because I thought it was boring (we're portrayed as too dreamy and sentimental, too, the illustrations for Libra, Aquarius and Sagittarius are always more beautiful), I've recently been able to identify myself with it, because we're not only crybabies but also complex and very intuitive persons.

Despite being born in Caracas, I have lived my entire life in Maracay (once known as the garden city).

As a child, I practiced swimming and tennis, although I must admit that I am not particularly good at the second and I don't really get along with ball games in general, as they tend to be attracted to my head.

My mother also tried to make me enter the world of the plastic arts by taking me to handicrafts and children's creativity courses, but that didn't help either, although today I can make a piñata if necessary.

I excelled academically in school since I was a child, which did not make me very popular with my classmates, but I learned to have my own criteria, to be faithful to my principles and beliefs, but above all to value a true friend.

My favorite subject was math and I won two Silver and Gold medals at the Regional Mathematics Olympics and for a long time I thought about studying engineering at college (spoilert alert: I didn't).

During my adolescence I had my musical phase I studied theory and solfeggio and participated for a couple of years in the choirs of the Escuela de Música Federico Villena and the Sistema de Orquestas del Estado Aragua as mezzo-soprano (although I snuck into the soprano section whenever I could), at that time I also learned a little guitar.

At about age 15 I stopped loving mathematics madly and discarded engineering as a career option, and because of the versatility, the vocation of service needed and the possibility of saving lives I decided that I wanted to study medicine.

At that time it was a real challenge to be admitted to this career, despite having good grades. My mother was very worried that I would be able to get into medicine as 3000 students took the admission test and only 150 were selected.

So I had to sing a little less and study a little more, so I left music school and spent a little more than 6 months preparing for the entrance exam. In the end, I finished in 5th place out of 3000 applicants.

So I was able to fulfill my dream of studying medicine at the University of Carabobo Sede Aragua and I am currently starting the 4th year of my degree (6 years old).

It's often said that medical students don't even have time to sleep, but for the first two and a half years of my career I wanted to go against it.

I carried out several extra-academic and volunteer activities such as: being a trainer of the University Admission Test, being a very active member and having positions of Subdirector of the Scientific Committee and General Secretary of the Scientific Society of the University of Carabobo, Sede Aragua (SOCEM UCSA).

Being a female akela (leader of girls between the ages of 6 and 11) in the Scout group Jose Smith and reading me the full saga of A Song of Ice and Fire without failing any subjetc in the attempt.

A little over a year ago, due to the economic deterioration of my country and other reasons, I put aside this type of activity (except for finishing the saga of A Song of Ice and Fire if one day George R. R. Martin deigns to publish Winds of Winter).

Currently, in addition to studying medicine, I work as a freelance web editor, I study English, Italian and this academic year I will be preparing Histology and Embryology at the University.

In my spare time I read the saga of Outlander by Diana Gabaldón, I watch series and I dedicate myself to helping my mother to put the papers of the family in order in case it is necessary to emigrate, with regard to this last point and due to the bureaucracy for this type of proceedings I have varied and somewhat entertaining anecdotes, which I believe will constitute material for the first entries.
