Interview: Who are you?


deissi

Recommended Posts

What is your real name?

Rosario Medellin

Where are you from?

Monterrey, Mexico

How did you find out about IB Survival?

I don't remember, I think I was looking for some IB related information on google and I came up to find this site :P

What made you register on IB Survival?

I wanted to know more about other people who are taking the IB diploma. When I first found this website I realized that most of the other people who are taking the diploma around the world live the same experiences and feel the same as I do. This made me feel identified and very curious about this community so I decided to join (:

When did you (approximately) register here?

I don't remember o.o Like one year and a half ago, but there was a long time in which I stopped using my account.

What is your favourite IB subject?

My favorite from the ones I chose for my diploma is ITGS, I got to learn a lot of interesting things by myself (because the teacher is so lazy that he teached us almost nothing) and the project was really fun to do. However I would have taken Arts HL if my high school offered it. They don't teach IB arts in my school, what I think is very sad and I truly hate that. I've read the arts diploma and I think it is beautiful, the examination seems pretty fun, it is my favorite IB subject. I've also read some of the arts students experiences and I am really jealous >_< I will regret forever that I couldn't take this subject on IB.

When are you graduating?

May 2012.. SOON :blowup:

What are your plans for university?

I am not sure yet D: I would like to study medicine or animation at the state University (Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León), I love both but I am not quite sure yet what would I like to do for the rest of my life :/

What are your free-time hobbies?

I LOVE painting and drawing, reading, watching TV series and movies, playing LOL (League of Legends), and making tiny air dry clay charms :P

If you could change one thing on IB Survival, what would it be?

I would make it a little easier to get the VIP account or give ar least one or two free chances to download files for nonVIPs.. I really needed some file for my Maths Studies IA and I couldn't download it u.u
