Reflection:
-No i would not like to attend this school, because it offers programs that i am not interested in what so ever. This school is particularly for people who want to become surgeons and or a physician. In this case, i can not even be close to blood because it freaks me out. Imagine if i can to prefer surgery on someone.

Christmas Break:

For my Christmas break i spend the entire three weeks in mexico. It was my first time meeting my family from my fathers side. I enjoyed my time there because my family is very nice and they welcomed me into their homes, but i will admit that i got homesick within the first 3 days that i had arrived. I only had my older sister to talk to in which i could be myself, because as it is i am not close to my father. I simply state a hello and how are you out of respect, other than that not conversation is made. While i was in mexico i was able to connect to my aunts and uncles that were out there, as well as there children. I loved it there so much, my older sister and i planned another trip for next year around January. Connecting with my family was great because i was able to understand how and why  my father is the way he is, and i was able to vent and talk about my problems towards my aunts who would later understand where i was coming from. Overall it was a great trip, and i did not really want to come back; only because i missed my family that was here.
