My Most Memorable Trip Ever Last year, on the last two weeks of March, I went on a trip to the United States where I
was able to visit Miami Beach, Ultra Music Festival and Walt Disney World Orlando. What
made this trip memorable was that it was my first experience visiting a place out of my
country, I paid the Ultra Music Festival ticket on my own, and that it was my first long air
flight.
I started to plan my trip with my aunts and cousins five months before we left. It was a
really nice experience in all senses because it was the first time I will a place out of
Guatemala. Everything was cool, until I remembered I didn’t have the Visa. I requested it
and they gave it to me, believe me or not that day I felt a lucky person because it was a
fast process.
The main cause of my trip was that the Ultra Music Festival was going to be held In Miami,
so I started to save money and paid my ticket on my own. One of the facilities I’ve had
was that Ultra created a payment plan for the people that couldn´t pay the complete
money at a time, this plan consisted in giving five payments of $120 to receive your ticket
on January. This encouraged me a lot because I was thinking in all the djs I will see, all
the people I will get to know and also in the fact that it was an international rave were
people from all around the world will be coming.
The last thing that made this trip memorable was that it was my first long air flight and
when I finished packing my things at 10:00 P.M. the day before I left I just wasn’t able to
sleep. I started to worry all night, nerves invaded me and time passed so quickly that at
a moment it was time to wake up and go to the airport. My plane was going to be peeling
at 4:00 a.m. so I was at 3:00 A.M. there waiting for my plane to land. When it landed, I
was surprised because I’ve never been on an airplane of that size. While I was flying I
was so nervous and I also wasn’t able to sleep there too because of all the movement
but the amazing feeling I’ve had that day can’t be explained.
I will be always thanking to God and my uncles because without them I think I would
never have accomplished that dream. The dream of visiting the United States and the one
of attending an important and recognized rave like Ultra Music Festival is.
I think not all the people has this privilege and I’m pretty sure that if God gave me this
opportunity it was because he has something prepared for me. I also learned that rewards
for your attitude, effort and actions come to you when you are least expecting them. So
be patient, the best things for you are yet to come.

It Must be Real… By: Joselinne Sagastume
In Guatemala is very common to hear legends about many different characters as
they are “El Sombreron, La Llorona, La Tatuana, El Cadejo” and some others, this
are just urban legends because they are not proved.
El sombreron is best recognized because of it appearance, many people said he
might be a short man with black dress a thick and brilliant belt, that he may wear
a black, large hat and boots that make a lot of noise when he walks. He likes to
mount horses and braid their tails. When he cannot find horses, he braids dogs. He
also likes to court young ladies who have long hair and big eyes. When he likes one
in particular, he follows her, braids her hair, serenades to her with his silver guitar.
In the neighborhood of La Recolección lived a woman named Susana, a young lady,
with long hair and big, hazelnut eyes, she must be a pretty girl. One night when
there was a full moon, Susana was sitting in the balcony admiring the sky, suddenly
a short character with a big hat and a guitar approached her. He was impressed
by the woman’s beauty so he sang her a song and started to braid her hair but
at that moment her parents found out she was out and made her get inside the
house. Since that day she was not able to sleep anymore because this character
continued to appear in the house or sang to her from the street. She was not able
to eat either, because every time they served her food it was contaminated with
soil. Worried, the parents cut her hair and took it to the church so that the priest
would put holy water on it and would pray for her. A few days later the little man
stop bothering her.
In Antigua Guatemala most of the people may have heard him, but I think we should
not believe in something we haven’t seen yet. So if one day you hear a man singing
for you at night remember it must be El Sombreron.
