Hello cute people from Hive! My name is Esmeralda Olivo and today I will tell you a little about who I am ...
Who is hiding behind this smile?
I am Venezuelan, coming from the capital of the country although most of my life I have spent in the heart of Venezuela, a place with lots of sun and people who ride on horseback, of great charm where you wake up with the song of birds and what is heard the most to the sound of the harp, cuatro and maracas is llanera music.
I am 18 years old (although it may not seem like it hahaha) and a quite striking personality since I am very cheerful and talkative but a good company if you are bored haha. I love the color pink and Disney things, deep down I am still a child but despite that, I am passionate in everything I do and as they say here a person “throws up” who always likes see the happy and fun side of life, looking for a solution to everything in a positive way. Good vibes only.
One of the most important things in my life after God and my family is the music that I know as the way in which the soul can be touched, it is the combination of secret codes that plays with our emotions and feelings, capable of fill the coldest and hardest heart. Many consider it a means of escape from everyday life but for me it has always been a lifestyle that has been around since before I was born.
My path in music began very early at the age of three when I lived two houses from a music school and I begged my mother every day that I wanted to know that, from there I started singing in a choir, then I went to playing the flute and then I spent 4 years playing one of my favorite instruments, the violin, which I had to give up when I was 9 years old. After I had left the orchestra, the opportunity arose to sing in a choir where I was until I was 12 years old, so I again resumed singing and with it came many opportunities, events, radio and television programs, and even the The opportunity to be queen of an important festival caught up with me, but from here on a dilemma arose and it was that I didn't know how to sing hahahaha, so I started looking for teachers and singing schools, until I got an academy in Caracas where I learned a lot about performing on stage, however, he had yet to learn the true art of singing. Later, with my studies and classes, I was forced to leave everything that was music and events, but since I have never been able to be separated from her and she from me, I started in a group of "lyrical singing" that ended up being much more than that and it is where I am currently learning new techniques about singing and music every day, in addition to learning to play guitar too hehe.
A pesar de la importancia que tiene la música en mi vida, otra de las cosas que me apasiona es el crear y diseñar cosas, es por ello que también desde temprana edad comencé a dar mis primeros pasos en el dibujo, experimentando cada día cosas nuevas y buscando siempre la perfección en cada uno de mis dibujos por muy infantiles que fueran, sin embargo, al realizarlo de manera empírica y sin saber las reglas decidí inscribirme en clases de dibujo donde estuve por seis meses perfeccionando cada una de mis técnicas hasta que me convertí en dibujante. Con respecto a ello, este es uno de mis más recientes trabajos...
In general, I am an artistic person, passionate about creating and innovating with new things that always carry my touch, that is why many were surprised by it when choosing my profession. I am a medical student, which is still strange even for me hahaha but despite the fact that this profession departs a bit from the creative and focuses more on the analytical and the methodological, it is a career where the most human side is discovered. we carry inside and it makes you develop a feeling of high sensitivity towards people, this being the reason why I decided to study it since I consider that one of the most beautiful things in life is helping others and having the power to do so. It is quite incredible that you are the one who makes the difference between life and death, that you are a being capable of alleviating suffering and pain to transform it into peace and well-being, it is a feeling of incomparable satisfaction. One of the things I want to become is a pediatrician because it is a specialty where the landscape of a doctor completely changes by having to paint colors where there are none, having to heal with magic to alleviate ailments and having to start to believe in fairies, princesses, dragons and super heroes to begin to understand his patients and fulfill his main task of being a smile thief.
Focusing on the spiritual ... It could be said that I am a bit of a "church girl" hahaha, I am a Christian, more specifically a dancer and adorer. From a very young age my mother has taught me obedience to God so it is practically because of her that I am in this, however, not knowing or experiencing anything on my own, some years ago when I was beginning my adolescence I decided to withdraw because I felt it as an obligation but the truth is that I did not know God what made me feel empty and as if something was missing, that is why I began to experience many things to eliminate that feeling, I tried to have many friends, I tried to please anything material that I wanted, I always tried to go out and have a good time and so on various things that caused momentary happiness, until there was a day when all the memories of the church came back to me and the need to return was born, so I did it and it is something I don't regret. As soon as I stepped on the doors of the church again, I experienced something that I had never felt in my life: Peace, and at that moment I felt like that traveler who returns home after so long of walking around the world and today I can say that I have begun to know God who, beyond being that superior being of incomparable power, has presented himself to my life as a friend, father and counselor who teaches me every day that I am not alone and shows me his great love for me.
Now that I told you a little about who I am, you may wonder, and how did I get here? Well ... Just like me, a person who has always walked the paths of music has been
who, combining his knowledge in computers with his curiosity, found this beautiful community of which he is a part and in which I will soon be sharing a little more about my art and my music. See you in the next post.
