Hello! Welcome to my blog. My name is Natalia Soler. I am currently in my sophomore year at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras campus; and I major in Environmental Science. Once you get to know me I am a nice person who is always willing to help those in need. I started this blog as a project for my Journey in Literature English class. One of the objectives of this class is to make us, the students, discover and reflect about our life journey. It can be divided into internal and external journey. The first assignment we did to represent this was a journey journal and we had to cover it with pictures that reflected our journeys. These are some pictures of my journal:
The collage making process was really fun. I truly
enjoyed searching for the right pictures to represent my journeys. I consider my internal journey to be
self-discovery. I want to know who am I really, what inspires me, what fills me
and what moves me. I want to find my own way. That's what the compass picture
represents. The picture of the owl to me represents wisdom, something I hope to
achieve. I love the idea of wisdom being something that you gain through life
experiences and self-growth. It's a quality that you accumulate throughout your
lifespan. Moreover, my external journey is world travel. I would like to travel
the world, learn about different cultures and meet new people. We as
individuals are always learning and growing and I think it's very important to
exploit that to the maximum. Never stop learning and never stop growing. Lastly,
I hope that this class will help me expand and acquire new knowledge. I am
really excited to see what is in store for me this semester.
I couldn't help but picture the Goddess Athena when you mentioned the owl in relation to wisdom and I was wondering if that was the inspiration. I've known you for a little over two months now, and I can tell that even if you are soft spoken you are very passionate about anything you do. You also project yourself as very determined and I have no doubt at all that you will get to travel the world and expand your wisdom to new frontiers.
ReplyDeleteWhen I see your journal collage the first thing that comes to mind is travel and exploration, which you clearly expressed in your blog post. When reading your blog you come off as a helpful and adventurous young lady ready to take on the world. I can definitely relate with you on the fact that I want to travel and learn from new experiences too. I also value wisdom a lot as well and wish to gain it through experience too grow as a person.
ReplyDeleteYour collage inspires travel and self reflection. I'm sure you'll find your direction and will definitely grow to find where you want to be. Where would you like to travel? Travel is definitely a great way to learn and grow, can't wait to hear about it.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy the vibe of this writing; it is very optimistic and happy. I quite like when you said that wisdom is something you achieve little by little and that it comes with experiences of life. It’s very true, I feel that is the purpose in life, to end up knowing many things that at the end of the day it makes the identity of one. Beautiful collage, by the way!
