Curves made by friends
We were in a family meeting when they decided that all my mother's siblings will be staying with us. I was filled with happiness, but what I didn't was that my mother had many siblings. I was used to living in a big house only for me and my parents, but then I had to share it with my aunts and uncles. I liked the idea to an extent I asked to help them move in. They said I was too young to help. At that time I felt useless. They were not the only one telling me I was young. Many places refused my help because I was young.

His main goal was to encourage students to apply physics to the world around them and identify the relevancy of the course material.

I was eager to learn as much as I could; in doing so, I realized that working in a laboratory setting, conducting experiments and applying equations, is something that I am truly passionate about.…

    I am Carlos Lopez. I am an intellectual, artistic, and socially challenged person. When I was at the age of three, I was diagnosed with asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism that affects one’s communication and social skills. There were times when I would engage in a conversation with someone and not know what to say to them; I usually wait for them to say a topic and go on from there, but it doesn’t always work because they usually say things that i don’t know about. At school, i am always in class and do enjoy talking to people there because I either know them or, since I see them everyday, I make an effort to know them.…
