I am...

     I am a 19 year old male, originally from Baja California, Mexico. Where the sun shines high above tourists heads and sets past the horizon of the deep blue Pacific Ocean, but that`s besides the point. I am an adventurous guy who likes to explore the outdoors, both rural and urban areas, anxious to learn and be filled in knowledge about how the world works. Although that gives off the sense that I am full of energy, active and moving around non stop, I am actually pretty easy going. "Carefree" would be the word to describe me, responsible as well when it comes to getting work done and on time. When learning about a new topic, or something that catches my interest I stay relaxed, yet in the inside i`ll be excited and anxious to learn about that certain topic. I have self control which enables to not go off on my own and get too distracted. It doesn`t always quite work out, but I try to stay focused.  I am an observant person who likes to explore with curiosity and the intent to discover, gain knowledge and hopefully remember what I have learned. Sadly, sometimes I am forgetful.
    The gifts I bring to this classroom is the ability to be open to anything new, acceptance, and acknowledgement of the surrounding students point of view and thoughts. I bring my friendliness and respect to everyone as soon as I enter through that door and as soon as I step out of it as well. I enjoy helping people out when they are troubled with an assignment or don`t quite understand it. I tend to try, even if I turn out to not be as helpful as I hoped I could have been, it`s the thought that counts right? Along with those traits I also bring with me my ideas, thoughts, opinions to this critical thinking class and the confidence to share them with the class.
