Just as any other day at Pitzer it was fantastic because the lessons taught here are very well thought out and they may help with future problems like we have been learning how to write a proper essay for college, Blogging, and Math. I also learned how we can involve ourselves into social movements to better our lives for the long run and also for the ones that will come after us which has me thinking that when I am of age I want to do some of these movements to better many communities and regions. The experiences might have me come back again next so that I can experience this program again because it is just so fun here. Well I am thankful for the Elders, Mentors and the Staff are doing such a great job at keeping us entertained which I am thankful for and also blessed to be participating in this great program, So if the Elders, Mentors or the Staff reads this I want to personally thank you.

As we sadly approach the ending of the program the teaching of everything gets more exciting and interesting like for example the lessons of Aztec Math, Rehearsing and Learning new songs, etc. The amount of knowledge is so large and learning about it makes me think about most of it such as Aztec Math how we use the nepohualtzintzin abacus is so simple yet complex it is very amazing how it works, also how we sing songs that have so much meaning with every passing word I can almost feel the large amount of pride and determination also with every passing word which gives me hope for the future. This program makes me feel as if I am at a home away from home because my bond with everyone grow everyday and so for I am enjoying it, so that is all I have to say for today..

As we progress with the program with each passing day it grows so much more interesting and the connection with the people grows stronger. My most favorite part of the day was during the Aztec Math which is actually very interesting and the concept of it is so creative just. Another part of the day I enjoyed was when we weaved the baskets which was my first time and I did an average job on making my own basket, my basket was not good but not bad at the same time so that is why I said it was an average job, I also put a lot of concentration and effort into making the basket. I am thankful for the people who are here and for the people who take care and educate us with each passing day.

All the summer programs that I have attended I would have to say this is my favorite because it teaches a lot about responsibility, teamwork, friendship, and hard work. This program is very unique because of its location, and people which I’ve never experienced before. For everyday I stay here my connection with all the members, mentors, staff, and the elders of this program grows stronger. When I first arrived the people were very welcoming and full of excited energy like they’ve pride and effort into this and I can tell that the people, that work here and help us, love their jobs and they leave such a positive impact. Whenever we do any kind of work it is to continue building all four aspects, that I have mentioned earlier, like for example the elders and mentors put so much work into this program in order to make it such a positive place. This program has done so much in such little time to educate all of us so very much and that is why this is my most favorite summer program.
