What I Want To Major

When you enter high school all you hear about and all that people ask you is “What do you want to be? What do you want to major in?”. For a long time, I didn’t know what it is that I saw myself doing. I have was a creative person. I was obsessed with building blocks and ‘Lincoln Logs’, and making my own houses. I was also involved in dance, music, and art classes when I was a child and I was good at it. I would always have my music on, choreographing my own dances, playing the piano and making a new art piece for my mom to hang on the wall. When it came to school, I realized that I had a fondness for math and science. I loved the challenge of solving a math equation and performing science experiments.

Not only do I want to better the buildings themselves, but how they are built as well. Global warming has become a huge conversation within the past couple decades. Every now and then I see articles about how Antarctica is turning green and how California hasn’t had a great water shortage in 1,000 years; it scares me. Coming from a small town, it was clean and less contaminated than the cities. The one thing I could immediately differentiate between the smaller and larger towns was the smell and the noise. I could smell the pollution and smog as soon as I arrived, and it disgusts me. What I will do to help is use less toxic products, protect draining, and not burn materials on site. I know there is nothing I can do to deplete the noise of the city,
