MY LIFE
I worked in the operational part of UAECOB 16 years ago, at the beginning my problem in
finding a new job was my lack of experience however I had the opportunity in this job, I
am currently assigned to the Marichuela fire station, from there attention is given to all
emergencies that arise during the continuous 12-hour shift, I live in love with my work, I
always do the best way to help others; although sometimes I am tired of working on the
weekends and I would like to work closer to home but for now I continue at this
headquarters, I don't risk losing my job because I really enjoy it and I hesitate to get one
same.
My family is made up of my mom and my two brothers, we have lived in an apartment
located in the 20 de Julio neighborhood for 10 years, we like to share with the family so we
do several things together like watching soccer games, movies and series, we do all the
cleaning, decoration and painting work. With the person I share the most with is my
mother, I count on her for everything and even one day she went on a trip when I was sick,
my mother agreed to come and take care of me leaving her walk aside, that day I confirmed
that she will always be there my and that the best thing to do when you are sick is to drink a
lot of water I like cooking on important dates such as Christmas and New Year, sometimes
we argue about things that are not important, but we agreed never to talk about it again,
generally speaking, we don't get along very well.
I'm an emergency response technician, about 36 years ago. I tried to learn German, but it's
too difficult. Currently I am studying Business Administration, under the semi face-to-face
modality, I am in the seventh semester, I don't like going to bed early so I take advantage of
the night to do my homework because I like doing homework, I plan to finish this shortly
so I can start a specialization.
 
I dream of finishing my studies, being able to manage my own company, living with the
people I love in a big house with a big garden I love to walk in the field, it must have a big
room with paintings I enjoy drawing, too I like music so I am I have an interest in
becoming a dancer. I hope to retire around 50 years old, achieve financial stability to live in
peace, I would like to travel the world, meet new places and people.

My best and closest friends are two, one is called Alejandro and the other is Alex, we have
known each other since we were children, in the neighborhood where we live our
childhood, they are middle-aged, Alejandro is characterized by being intelligent, pleasant
and fun, he is slim and short in stature. Alex is characterized by being strong and hard-
working, he is fat and he measures around 1.70 meters, they are both great people and we
have similar tastes I love eating chocolate and sweets and they also among many others, I
always have fun when I am with them at Sometimes when I want to drink I go out with
them to parties, although we don't do it that often anymore, I remember that the last time
we went out when we arrived at the party at apartment I were surprised to find the dog

day I asked him not to leave because I had a great time with them.
