Some goals I want to accomplish include graduating from high school (obviously) and becoming a pediatrician. The reason why I want to become a pediatrician is that I like helping people, working with kids, and getting involved in the medical field. I hope to one day work at the Lucile Packard Stanford Children's Hospital in Palo Alto.

I like collecting CDs, and the genre I usually go for is like 90s R&B and 90s rap. Like some Ashanti, Aaliyah, Outkast, and Fugees. Those are just some I have, but I mostly lean towards 90s music. I also have a CD player cause I hate how you gotta pay for Apple Music and how Spotify got these ads.

I love SF so much. I just love the city and the environment, and people hate the city, but don't know the culture it's surrounded by. My dad immigrated from El Salvador in the early 90s after the civil war and migrated to San Francisco. I grew up visiting the city so much. I'm actually gonna go tomorrow, 10-25-25, to the city. I love the sports teams there, like the Warriors, Giants, and 49ers(before they left for Levi's) and the new WNBA team, the Valkyries.
