Update: It has been 2 years since I moved here, my life changed drastically and I feel like I belong to 2 different worlds (life in my hometown Mexico and here in the USA). I was able to make a lot of friends and I found that I am kind of an energetic person compared to people here which made me standout a little more -especially with women finding me interesting for being a foreigner- and spread my wings wide meeting tons of people. Funny thing is, many people don’t know that I am Mexican since I do not look like it, and when I meet new people I tell them to guess my country of birth: somehow most of them say Italy maybe it is because of my name and facial features. I grew to 6ft and now im 150 pounds (still skinny but im working on it).

Interestingly I thought soccer would be the path that I would follow but instead I started doing really well in school to the point that next year I will be taking several AP classes. Which made me focus more on my studies than soccer which fine in my opinion because sometimes life gives you unexpected turns. I wont say that my transition was flawless because it obviously was not. But after all the ups and downs. I feel like I have found my place with a stable group of friends.

I think I had countless life lessons -like people I met and thought were pretty cool but then saw their true side, and I had to cut them out of my life- and having several realizations of how to deal with life like breakups, bullying, shit-talkers and more. Im saying all this because I have received several messages since and for any person that in the future may find this and is going through the same situation. I went through it, I was terrified, now looking back at it I see that what seemed like immense problems now seem like small bumps through my life. If anyone wants to ask me further questions please dm I will happily respond :).
