She and Einstein inspired my choice!

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Albert Einstein 

I still remember the day when Silvia, my last year philosophy teacher at the High School, came to class and wrote this quote on the blackboard. Without knowing it, it changed my life.

Until then, I had studied physics, biology, mathematics, chemistry and other subjects that didn´t make me feel comfortable. I felt out of my place and, although I was not a bad student, the truth is that I couldn´t feel completely happy. I was desperate. In fact, I remember this last year as a horrible experience due to I couldn´t reach my goals and, for many moments, I thought I wouldn´t get the mark I needed to study in the University I wanted.

However, that day, this quote made me meditate and think that it was pointless to continue studying something I didn´t really love. That wasn´t my place and that's why I felt stupid doing it.

That was the reason, I decided to break with everything and change my entire life. The first option I put in my application for a place at university was, surprisingly for all, Advertising and Public Relations. Suddenly, I felt that communication area was the water for the lost fish I had been being.
