¡Mi presentacion en hive! / ¡My presentation in hive!
Aquí vamos.
One day in the morning like 8:00 am, you are with other people meeting, mostly strangers, some you already treat them because it is not the first time they are in that situation, all with a common goal ... compete, thus showing all you have, the effort, the commitment that everyone wants.
You don't have a team to back you up, at most you will represent a group, but at that moment... You are alone and you feel the looks, focused on you and the small group that accompanies you, you try to tell some bad jokes or talk to the opponent on the side to control the nerves that each one share, knowing that in a few seconds, they will be opponents.
They call you and you hear them say "100 meters butterfly style", your heart starts to beat, everyone is silent, the audience is silent... you get ready to jump into the water, your team and your family look at you calmly but your heart is running as much adrenaline as possible, your lungs increase their capacity, your muscles harden and your brain starts to wander between positive and negative thoughts, like: "Will I make it?", "I am the fastest if I can","¿And if you get tired in the middle? ", "I trained hard for this", "The one in the center lane is faster", "I'm next to him, if he's faster, he'll have to try it", A constant struggle... until everything starts and you throw yourself...
Here we go.
!Hola a todos!
¿Quién soy?
¿De dónde vengo?
¿Qué me gusta y que hago?
Hello, everybody!
I honestly don't know where to start, I guess at the beginning, I'll just throw myself into the adventure of describing myself to you, the only thing my mind says is "Be yourself" a bit of a cliché isn't it? Let's say we are face to face in a conversation between friends, that way it is easier for both of us to get to know each other
Who am I?
I believe that the common thing is to begin by my name: My name is Diego Alejandro Santacruz, so I place my mother, Diego! by an Argentine engineer who worked with my father in the Asian giant.
Where do I come from?
My father, of Colombian origin, a hard worker and a good man, although stubborn and grumpy, fell in love with my mother, of Venezuelan origin, a llanera (countrywoman) with a big heart and humility, a spectacular woman and gave birth to this boy who was a little nervous. I am the youngest of three brothers, I am from Venezuela, I am 22 years old and I consider that for my age, I am lucky to have obtained great experiences despite my short life, whether good or bad I learned something from all of them.
I'm turning 20 December, I'm a Sagittarius, you know? It's funny that I know my zodiac sign, thanks to my sister and my mother who have these beliefs, I am more a believer in what I see and experience, although I do not reject their motives, it would be absurd to reject something that you have no evidence to refute, I consider myself a man who loves science, open to all kinds of knowledge, respecting all types of beliefs ... would be very boring if everyone was equal, I appreciate that we are all different, all we have to be is good with people.
What do I like and what do I do?
I love astronomy, the moon, the galaxies, the quasars, so much that I put my name on a rover that will reach Mars in 2021, I know I may not be able to go to Mars, but at least my name made it.
Okay, back to more earthly issues. I am studying Engineering at the Universidad Central de Venezuela (U.C.V), a prestigious university destroyed by the situation in Venezuela, I will avoid talking about that... I am an average student, I do not have excellent grades compared to the rest of my classmates (I think so), if God wants in 1 year (approximately) I will be graduating.
I am fluent in English, yes! I was one of the first to refuse my father to learn a language, I did not know my language skills and I found the language remarkably simple to speak and moderately complicated to write, I am only 5 months away from receiving my bilingual degree! This is something that I had a hard time achieving, not so much because of the academic effort (which I do not minimize), but because of the economic cost that my parents and I had to sacrifice. I intend to continue improving my language skills and learn another language, perhaps French or Portuguese.
As you saw in the photo at the beginning, I like swimming, or rather I like sports, it is one of the ways to de-stress, to improve and motivate myself, I am a person who is partly restless and competitive.
This swimming thing started when I was 12 years old, my mother forced me to go in, I was terribly afraid of the water because of a traumatic event in it, thanks to some friends of that time who helped me overcome my fear and eventually become a good swimmer, I dedicated 8 years of my life to swimming. I traveled through different states in Venezuela and competed in various places, won various medals, but that is the least of it, I liked the idea that when you go to a competition no matter how far it was, you would find a well-known opponent and you would talk in all that time. The atmosphere was very spectacular. I participated so much that I have a photo with Venezuelan Olympic swimmers, the Pinto sisters. i was like about 14 years old.
Clarifying the previous paragraph, I like is the INDIVIDUAL sports, where you do not have the possibility of throwing the blame to the partner, if you fail is you and if you want to be better is your responsibility.
I participated not only in swimming, but I also have basic knowledge of boxing and martial arts, I tried to learn as much as possible while I was given the opportunity.
¿Como llegue aquí y que pretendo hacer?
How did I get here and what do I intend to do?
I learned about this community, thanks to my sister Ana Maria @Soyunasantacruz , she has dedicated considerable time to this and motivated me to participate "taking advantage of the pandemic", in her words.
This pandemic is something unexpected in humanity, well thanks to her, I have taken the time to improve my physique, learn new movements, I will not teach you swimming by this means and less in these times ha ha, but if you try to have a physique of a fighter type of mixed martial arts, I want you to accompany me to have an enviable physique and feel better than ever.
It will not take you long, I dedicate 1 hour a day, and the changes are impressive (I will try to upload updated photos of the changes), I combine the style of CrossFit, together with combat movements.
Why CrossFit?. I believe that CrossFit uses the minimum of tools to achieve results and if they don't have the possibility of going to a gym they can do higher intensity exercises at home. It's all in the mind, my friend!
I will teach them to throw punches and defend themselves, to be fast and resistant. Not to fight in the streets, remember that the best fight is not to fight. We learn together and we will improve each other.
That is my main objective, possibly I also focus on astronomy and my knowledge granted by my studies, both as an engineer and in languages.
Hey, I almost forgot, I also love video games, too much I would say, I could also focus on this. I could even organize and play all together! In my mind, it already comes to me Among Us.
Foto actualizada, Soy el de camisa roja.
Updated photo, I'm the one in the red shirt.
Espero que aprendamos juntos, uno de otros.
I'd like to keep writing more about me and what I do, but I think that's enough, as friends we are, it's my turn to listen, I'm all ears!
I hope we learn together, one from each other.
