how many people is a little question
fast how many people have felt
at some point in your life that does not fit
that do not feel part of a group that
do not fit with a person I give them some
15 seconds to reflect on
that while I get a while
good while they were reflecting
all you realized
if they ever felt that way it was all
My high school was always the what
who criticized the one who mocked the
that was an object of mockery
and honestly I never cared but
I never felt with the confidence of
approaching someone to try to do
something more than always being a simple
student for the same thing so that I
they will criticize then leave it
When I entered Betis I saw that many people
he brought rubik’s cubes
I do not know until it becomes very interesting and
to some extent attractive why
they brought him but for the same shame
that brings dragging because I never
approach to ask or try to do
something with that
One day they passed through the salons inviting
to a tournament that I was going to see them in each
semester and agreed that it would be the
that semester
and then I stay in a very father schedule
so I said then why do not I go and see
what’s up and I really fell in love
between and I completely fell in love this
feel that experience that emotion
what the kids have
when doing a good weather a bad weather to
beat your friend who is in the chair
lose against him and that nice feeling
of competition that now almost
no sport gives you anymore everything is more
business then I liked that very much
the same day a friend brought a cube a
friend a roommate there
and for the same I believe for the same
euphoria of the tournament of the same emotion
I said because I do not want to can
say no
I ‘m going to ask for it and actually I
he said he will not let me lend total so
Do not talk to him for a long time
leaving school that day you
I asked this year to check if we can get there
an import buy one of those from
15 pesos of those who want horrible
but then I used to learn
in a weekend I learned to solve it
but because it was father and he remembers much of
that tournament all the emotion all the people
and it motivated me to keep learning
keep learning the time passed and my
dads it was like I already released the bucket and
I went out to where I was going to the store I was going
with my cube
several times I stumbled to walk with the
cube and this one did not go out without him
My parents have already begun to realize
that it was something that was serious that I
I wanted to dedicate myself to this and then as
So far they continue to do it
they supported everything
then at the end
I did not start lowering my times I started
improve I started meeting people who had
that same taste for this weird thing
I went to my first official tournament the first
big tournament the first tournament where
came people from all over the country was in place
of the sun in fashion
and it really has been the most
pretty I’ve had in all my life
all that feeling what I was telling you of
the competition to all be all the
people pushing to see that
we were doing getting excited next to
us without even knowing how to put together
a cube did not even have it turned on
once in your life the balconies of the
sun plaza tender
There’s something curious there in Plaza del Sol
they lent us the space but we
they said they go to the corner entering
to the left and where they were before
the children’s toys there sent us
and he was victorious because the following year
they put us in the middle, it was so much
the people who were so successful the one who had
that they put us at least at work in
the warm electric
so
In summary
in this tournament I met a girl I was
It was very nice but for the same reason
insecurity and my shame at never you
I spoke so that I was going to ignore
completely
In summary
this guy that I
who ever denied me his ass
is my best friend now we are better
friends we teach in the cebetis I’ve
given high school classes are already
radio interviews and this girl that I
liked today is my girlfriend then and why
that is because I am here talking to
you because I have this opportunity
because I have grown so much personally
socially lovingly because I
I dedicated
to do what I liked I found something
that I liked and I dedicated myself to that
so
I invite whatever
you like me I know who is going to
like that but independently
I dream that I have the passion I have
follow it
your life is going to change completely
and besides that the important thing is that they go
to be happy
and that that life is many
Thank you
