Go to Apartado by Valentina Restrepo Albarracin

GO TO APARTADO


When I was 12 years old I took a decision that It changed my life forever. One day, I said, “I want live with my dad.” My mom said, “Valentina, is crazy and it is impossible”. When I told to my dad my idea. He was happy because we had never lived together. All my family did not agree with my decision anyway. I went. My dad had everything ready my room and my school.  My brother was a baby at that time.
Apartado is located in the west of Antioquia. It is very hummed and hot.  My father works in Banacol. It is a factory dedicated to exportation of bananas. When it was high time. I regretted but it was nothing to do.
My first day of school was terrible. I did not meet anyone. I cannot concentrate. The temperature was too hate. The first moth, I hate my friends, the food and my dad. He was concerned and he always did things to please me.
However, a day everything changed. I liked my school. I played soccer and it was amazing. One day, a friend went to my house because we had to do a homework. Since then she is my best friend. Manuela had a farm off the sea front. When I went I love it.  The sea was beautiful. It had mountains and waterfalls. It did not have contamination and it heard the sound of the birds. It was wonderful.
Since this moment, that experience changed my life. I met many places. I learned many things for the life. In this moment, my true friends are Apartado’s friends. This experience allowed me. I am a better person. I can be more time with my father and we erected a strong relationship.

Now, I go to Apartado each time I can and I got together with my partners for we remembered the best moments.
