CHILHOOD MEMORIES

Hello! My name is Noemi Danesis Durán and today I am going

to talk to you about my best and worst memories and
anecdotes.

My oldest memory is of a Christmas in which my father was

making a banana smoothie and I wanted to go up to the table
where he was doing it and when they brought me up, I took the
lid off the blender while it was on and it went flying like a
whirlpool and the ceiling leaked the shake.

I remember that when I was in kinder garden, they did a play

and my character was the "little Mandingo cockroach" at the
end of the play they had a competition for best actor and I
asked, I got very sad and my parents took me to McDonalds.

When I was in 6th grade, my school formed

a girls' soccer team in which I played and we beat
many schools and thus we represented Panama Oeste
going to the national championship, in the final we
lost so we could not go to the championship in Belize
Despite that, it was a unique and incomparable
experience.

At the age of 16 I used to play soccer

in a women's team, everything was going well until one
day I had an accident and sprained my right foot, I
slipped playing and all the weight of my body fell on my
foot, then all my tendons and ligaments were torn. I
spent 3 weeks in bed with a splint and 7 months of rest
without physical activity for my recovery. Despite this,
the doctor said that my feet would never be the same
and unfortunately. I couldn't go back to playing soccer.
