Small Miguel If you came this far it's because you want to know a little bit, about how my life has been to date. I have to admit my life has been a great one, as always, there's been hard, sweet, happy, emotional, confusing moments; but all of them have created what I am now.

I was born in a beautiful Wednesday of December, it was 1980, and while everybody was fixing their New years eve party, my mother was having a little hard time in the hospital, as I was making my arrival to this world. My first three years of life (from which I don't remember much, remember I have swiss cheese memory) took place in Mexico city, then all my family (including myself) moved to Cuernavaca, cause of a strange illness my sister suffered because of the pollution then.

Happy Miguel When I got to Cuernavaca. I also started school, I assisted to the same school for 12 years, and I have to admit I had a great education over those years. My years of kindergarten where mainly about discovering myself in the outside world, and finding out that I've never been a conventional kid, something that was hard to understand then, but now I've dealt with it. Why do I say that I've always been a non conventional guy, well, by I don't know why, but I always matured before the people my age around me -well, that still happens-, that simple thing, has caused a big struggle to adapt to the circumstances I have to live.

I have to admit my childhood was quite normal and happy. I don't have big memories of it, but at least most of the pictures of my earliest days show that I usualy was smiling, so that's a good reason to say I had great things happening, but all those were simple, and now I can say that the things I like the most are primitive, normal and simple. At school I usually did quite well during my elementary years, except my first two years, when I almost failed the whole year, but suddenly everything changed and I got to the top of the class, where I've usualy been ever since, without working much.

Miguel When puberty arrived to my life, lots ot things started to happen in me, the questioning about my sexuality took many nights awake, but I can say I always was positive and dealing with the fact of being gay was easy inside me. My problem about gayness has been dealing with the world outside, though I'm starting to work that out. I've always been positive about my sexualiy, so I came out to my family on my 16th birthday, it was for sure one of the hardest decisions I've ever taken, but I don't regret, it's been a great opportunity to realize how much my family loves me me, and how they accept me for what I am, one of the quotes that moved me the most then was "I rather be hated for something I am, than loved for somethign I'm not", so this was my first moto, and now I realy think that even when at first the whole thing was hard, now I can see, how I can be myself in front of my family (and not because I act different now before they knew, but becuase I can be myself now without getting in trouble).
