MB PRODUCTION BLOG

So essentially I wanted to film today. I knew that with the filming problems, I had to figure something out, fast and quick. I had the intention, and motivation, but the world cup, and exam finals are happening. Essentially I been really busy. I'm definitely filming this Wednesday or weekend. With that, it'll be done and over with. However it's been very hard to balance school work, exams, work, and still maintain a social life. Now, you may already know that I'm actually from Argentina. And so, It's such a big part of my culture and my family to watch the world cup game. Personally I'm a pretty big sports fan, and for me this game means a lot for me. I even left school early just so I could catch up with the game. Even with going against such small team like Croatia and I felt like it was very important for me to be there with the people I love. Long story short, I I had little to no time to spare that day and didn't film. However, that re-film of the blog need to get done as soon as possible. In the good side Argentina did win and will proceed to the finals. All that leaves is for Argentina to win the World Cup, and I'll be the happiest person ever. Nevertheless I already called up my partners and started arranging a time to meet. That only means we're getting to the end game. In any case, the World Cup will be finished shortly. I'll be back to my usual industrious self after that.

ALL ABOUT ME!

Image
I was born in the United States of America, but when I was two years of age my family and I moved to Argentina in 2009. Of course, my parents grew up there and after we moved there, we stayed for approximately 6 years. The reason we had to move out is because since 2016 Argentina has been having an economic crisis. After we got back to the US, I had to start school in 4th grade with no knowledge of English whatsoever. I had a very rough time in elementary as my grades were awful and it was hard to make friends due to the language barrier. However, in Middle school I finally managed to get straight A's and B's, make plenty of friends, have good test scores, and overall have a good school experience.   Almost all of the friends I made in middle school (Sunrise Middle), came to Fort Lauderdale high school, which has made my overall experience here good. Almost every class that I go to I have a friend I can talk to, a companion I can share experiences with, and most important a fri...
