Dear Listener:
I am Sofia Gutierrez, I am 15 years old and my family consist of my mom Ximena, my dad Mauricio and my brother David. My brother lives in Bogota because he is in college and it has been a very hard stage in my life. My mom works in my school and my dad works in my farm. With this project I hope I will make the right choices of the songs so you can get to know me better.
For this project, I am going to choose three events that have been really special for me in the last year because some-how they have imparted me. For these 3 events, I need to choose three songs that I think that represent or can send a message of what that moment was for me. The events I am going to choose are, my 9th grade binationals in Cartagena with the song We Are Young by Fun, the One Direction concert in Colombia with the song Moments by One Direction and when my brother went to Bogota with the song Count On Me by Bruno Mars.
The first event that I am going to explain is the trip to binationals in 9th grade because it was very cool and it was an entire week with my best friends playing the sport I love and meeting knew people; it was like family. The binationals were in Cartagena and what made it only better was that my team, the volleyball team got in second place. We were the team in our that got closer to be the first. The song that I am going to choose for this event is We Are Young by fun and I am going to choose this song because the song talks about having fun and that when you are young nothing can stop you from doing what you want. The part of the song that I think that describes the moment best is "tonight, we are young, so let's set the world in fire, we can burn brighter, than the sun".
The second event that I am going to do is the One Direction concert that was on Colombia in April 25 of 2014. This is one of the events I chose because I really like their music and I listen to them all the time. It was also a very special day because I went with my cousins and before that concert I haven’t seen them for a long time so I spent an entire day with the cousins that I love the most and I felt a rush of emotions because I saw the band that I had been so obsessed with. The song that I choose for this even is called Moments and it is also from One Direction. I really think this song connect to the occasion because there is a part of the song that says "if we could only have this life for one more day, if we could only turn back time." I chose this part of the song because it's exactly how I feel. I would do anything to go back that day.
The last event that I am going to do is when my brother David went to Bogota to study close to college. This was a very hard stage of my life because I was close him and when I went to my house after school I used to go to his room and just hang out with him. Now, I go to my house and just see an empty room; we were like finger and nail. The song that I chose for this event is Count On Me of Bruno Mars because this song talks about that person that you really love and that you know that you can always count on them for whatever you want. The part of the song that I think represents the most is "you can count on me like one, two, three I'll be there, and I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two I'll be there, because that's what friends are supposed to do".
Those were the songs that I chose and I hope that they will help you get to know me a little more because I tried to choose the most important statements that has happen in the last year.
