One significant event I could recall was a mathematical competition. Since I was a child, I've always loved mathematics, so it was a really enjoyable experience. This event occurred in 2024, around mid-April. It started when two teachers asked me if I could participate in this event because I was good at the subject, and I was really happy to do so. I took a test, and they said that if I won, I could go to Mexico and participate in the semifinals there. Also, there was another math teacher who accompanied me to Mexico. It was really cool. I could travel there with two friends who were also part of this event. This was really exciting for me because it was the second time I went to Mexico, but I could get to know more of Mexico City. I had only been to Cancun, and I could discover new cities, meet new people, and also do what I love, which was mathematics. I could go to the university. It was organized by a university called Anáhuac. I could meet some students from other states of Mexico and even some foreigners, people from El Salvador. It was really amazing. I enjoyed it a lot there.
