I had tons of options of what I could do for this project, but I love new experiences that take me to new places and out of my comfort zone. I have anxiety, so it is definitely not the easiest thing for me, but I make it a point to do things like this anyway. I usually try to volunteer at places, so I can get more involved. I decided to visit a different kind of religious sanctuary. I am very picky. It took me over a year before I found a church in San Antonio that worked for me. I just love a place that is very open, accepting, and sends messages that relate to me and everyone. I attended a synagogue.
I went to Temple-Beth-El. It is a very beautiful synagogue. Not that I have visited any before, but it really is overwhelmingly lovely. I have

    Personal Narrative: Brownsville, Texas

    Brownsville, Texas is the town that I was raised in and can still call home. It was rich with Mexican culture and delectable, greasy tacos but it was still an economically disadvantaged city meaning that there were never enough resources to guide students to better opportunities. Of course, I never knew I was deprived of such an apparent luxury until I came to The University of Texas at Austin. When this realization came, I became frantic because of how behind I felt. I began looking for all sorts of resources and opportunities the university had to offer.…

    Personal Narrative: Coming To Houston

    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…

    Personal Narrative: Moving To Texas

    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.…

I was able to serve with Tree of Life Ministry and others in the community. The director of Tree of Life, Linda, did a great job getting things set up and planned for us so as to make the most out of the trip. The group did a great job together and had an enjoyable time as we were able to accomplish a lot of various and needed projects.…

    Non Denominational Service

    My project consisted of attending a worship service different than that my own. I chose to follow a friend to a non-denominational sect of religion at a local church called, Iglesia Cristiana Misericordia in Laredo, Texas. This opportunity was chosen because I had made a promise to my friend to at least attend one service to see the differences between the traditional Roman Catholic services compared to this non-denominational service. At the very beginning I was rather apprehensive because of my original upbringing to Catholicism and the fact that I was attending service I was not familiar with.…

    I attended a Candle Lighting Shabbat at the Temple Israel of Brevard on August 26th.

My expectations were that the people of the temple would be very nice and welcoming. I also felt that I would feel out of place since I had never been to a temple before.
