San Antonio has river running through downtown near the Alamo. These rivers connect and make a big circle around downtown. There is a boat that takes you around it, we decided we wanted to ride it.

    Over spring break, I visited my sister and her family in Texas. Whilst there, we had some free time so we decided to go down to Fort Worth and do some sightseeing. One of the places we went was the Alamo Mission. Once the sight of a famous Texas battle, it is now a historical landmark, a “Shrine of Texas Liberty,” and a museum with weapons, art, and artifacts from the time of the Texas Revolution. I’d been to the Alamo once before this visit, back when I was eight or nine, and at the time, I didn’t fully appreciate what the sight meant.…

    Coming to Houston from a country where opportunities are very limited and economy is a challenge for the youthful, has made the last two years a little rough and hopeful at the same time for me and my family. Therefore, school is the most important in my life, after my family; I dedicate my time and my efforts to not become just the first professional in my family, but also to be an exemplary person in society thanks to the values that my parents have instilled in me. Before coming to Houston, I studied three years of Industrial Design in Colombia; although I loved my career, I think that I was too young (15 years old) to appreciate what school was providing me and to be sure what I wanted to do in life. Once I got here I understood that what…

    When I was 16 I moved to from California to Texas. During this time, I assume everyone in Texas wears a cowboy hat, boots, talks in a southern accent such as saying y’all and other such stereotypes. I assume the general understanding of Texas from what I was taught as a kid in movies, music, and shows. Once I moved to Texas that that type of thought was used against me, my classmates assume I probably l go to the beach and surf and have met plenty of celebrities when I lived in California. This is an example of REPRESENTATIVENESS HEURISTIC to judge or presume a someone or something relying on past experiences and mental representations to a new situation creating a particular group.…

    We got to see stalagmites, stalactites, flowstones, chandeliers and soda straws. We took lots and lots of pictures because if I didn't slow my family, I feel like they wouldn't have believed me. We spent about half our day there, and then after that she took me to the San Antonio Zoo. That zoo was humongous, way bigger than the one in the valley. I saw monkeys, elephants, rhinoceros, lions, zebras, and even penguins.…

    The first time I heard Riptide by Vance Joy I knew I would love it. From the opening strum of the ukulele to the nonsensical lyrics, the entire song connected with my lighthearted nature, but I could never have guessed how important the song would become to me. I spent the summer after ninth grade at a debate camp in Austin. I happened to be one of the youngest people there, so I tried to keep quiet, hoping not to make a fool of myself. Thus, over the first week I did not make many friends.…

    It was an early Monday morning, I was pretty happy at the time because this trip was going to get me out of a full week of school. So, it all began at the airport, looking out of the window I could see our plane, It was a bit intimidating and I was really nervous because this was going to be my first time on a plane. Nevertheless, I had nothing to worry about though because soon enough I would come to realize that, the time I would be spending in Puerto Rico would teach me to truly enjoy the great experiences in life. So we were off, I could not wait to begin my adventure in Puerto Rico and meet all the amazing new people. When my grandmother and I landed in Puerto Rico I had no idea what I was in for, we planned the trip last minute and had no plans when we got there, or so that's what I anticipated.…
