While I was in Mexico we just stayed in the area where my parents lived and go to the city. That was basically our days over there. But as a family, we decided to go to this one island called Patzcuaro, Michoacán. to get there we had to go on boats it wasn't an island you can drive up to this one was an actual island. How they lived and how their neighborhood was built was way different from over here in the US and where my parents grew up. Their house was built on the island it was like a mountain just a hill and the top of the hill just went up. The farther you go up the roads the steeper it gets. I also notice how all the little streets connect to the top basically the main attraction of why people go there. There's a huge statue of the founder of Michoacán and people can go inside the statue and go to the top of it. What I was drawn to while being there was how much they appreciate the Mexican culture and the" Michoacá...
A risk I took was pursuing a career without knowing what I'm going into or not knowing if I'm going to like it. All my life I was set on wanting to be an architect specifically in interior design. I grew up with a dad who loves designing and creating things and he works/ manages a construction company. So I had a snippet of what it looks like to create things from scratch and watching it come to real life. I came into knowing architecture is based on math and math is not my strong suit so I was scared of going into architecture cause of it. I took the risk of having the mindset as if we don't take risks in life then what's the point doing things. In order to know what you want and to succeed you have to take risk. I overcame this feeling of being scared of not knowing if architecture is going to be what I want to pursue cause of math, was finding ways I can succeed in and overcome that roadblock. Math is a hard subject that takes time to learn. Its not something you will learn over night. That's what I'm telling myself throughout this whole journey of figuring out if architecture is what I want to pursue, math is just snippet of what is yet to come. Its my core class I have to take before I get to feel the whole experience of taking architecture classes especially the design aspect of it. I'm learning that if I take the easy way out of things I'm never going to overcome my fears/scares.
