 Hi! My name is Nathaly Gisel Cabrera-Hernández, but that’s a lot so it’s just Nathaly or Nat. I am a 15 year-old Salvadorian-Mexican hispanic female. I was born here in the United States however, my first language was spanish. I know spanish, english and I am in the process of learning French. My goal in life has always been to go to collage, I’ve loved school since I was a kid. I’ve been having a hard time in school recently balancing everything but I haven’t given up. My dream as a kid and even before getting into high school has been to work as a forensic scientist or a crime scene investigator. However, for several reasons, my path of pursuit has changed and I’ve decided to achieve what could have been my mothers career, as a lawyer, more specifically, an immigration lawyer. As a kid I disliked lawyers, I could never see myself working on a case on a desk, to me, working outside in the field was my motivation. Although the lawyer career doesn’t seem that bad now, it is still painfully stressful. Other than that I have a loving friend who cares about me like no other, she has always been with me since 6th grade. Her name is Johanna Amaya and she is the kindest and most comprehending friend I have ever met, I am so thankful for her. I have always enjoyed art, drawing and painting, I even wanted to pursue it as a career. Since a young age i’ve always drawn. My favorite color would probably be a lavender lilac, I never got to do my quince. Luckily, my best friend being the best, organized a little small get together for my birthday. Of course it was nothing like her quince party, but it was something. Her and her family held a small reunion in their home and took us to the beach to go take pictures. It was one of my happiest days. I don’t have much, but I have motivation from my mother who was the first collage and high school graduate in our family. She went to the National University and that fills me with so much pride. My life may not be much, but it’s mine and I don’t regret a single second of it or anyone. I will continue making friends and memories along the way, some of them being in this class for the next few months.

So, moving into the characters that would be in the film. The group was chosen based on availability, most of them, well all, being my friends. A recurring helper, my best friend Johanna, my friend Jacobo, and someone I met recently, Sophia. There were more people but they didn't have time or something came up. From the team, only Benjamin and I showed up.  The team decided to record in late January so it was a tad cold but Everyone wanted to fit into the timeline so most of the team members were co-opperative dress attire-wise. I made sure everyone brought the necessary items given that the place was dark, so flashlights were required. It took a while for the recording team to all show up, but once attendance was met, I set up most things to get ready to shoot. The first step was to clear the area and make a map of the areas we would visit throughout the recording. The team decided on a few areas, the first being the storage room with the skates previously mentioned. The group dec...

 Hey guys welcome back quick update, a lot of things changed. Well a lot was forced to, due to our extenuating circumstances and the production of this is music video. Let me explain, to make things simple, the video won’t be going on script with the storyboard. I put my party and even though I had just gotten out of competition, and hadn’t eaten, I put my part in and brought my best friend in order to complete the ideal goal. However, a lot of problems arose, some being mine and others not so much.  One of the problems that I had was in fact, competition, I was not aware of how late the final round would last and my group meme era had to film the lonely part by them selves, Ayannah and Benjamin. I ended up finally being free at around 3:30 pm, and had to run and pick up my best friend in order to even make it to see the team. There was in fact some negative feels towards me but I couldn’t control it and I changed the schedule and filming period in order to make time for every...
