Alameda

Yesterday in our trip to Alameda we had a lot of fun. My group and I really had a good experience there because when we went out to interview people about safety. Everyone there was very friendly about getting interviewed and the good thing bought it was that we dint get rejected not even once. This was different than what we had expected because we though that since we were from Oakland nobody was going to let us interview them but they did. So my group and me ended up learning a lot a bought peoples opinion.

Reflection On this Class

Over the last 2 weeks of being part of this class I have learned to get out of my comfort zone. I have got a Chance to stop being shy and basically just try knew things. This has helped me a lot because in any other class I used to be shy and not really like to step up a lot. When I got into this class I started to get my act together and participate in class and step up and try new things.
Ever since I began to overcome my shines I have felt that I have taken more care about my education by steeping up and asking questions in class and taking charge of my learning. Aside of just participating in class I have become more outgoing. By that I mean that I have learned to make new friends by just being friendly and not being shy too met knew people older our younger than me. This class has helped me experience different types of things. For example got to visit knew neighborhoods and try knew types of food that I had never eaten before. Yes there has also being times in this class were I refused to try knew tings like tasting different foods. But later when I actually tried it it wasn't than bad after all. So people try knew thinks and get out of your confront zone.. I don't think you would regret it. And if you do its nice learning knew things.

"Castro Street" In San Fransisco

On our trip to San Francisco. We got to visit the street called Castro. This for me was very different than Oakland. The reason I think this is because not only we saw people who were not the same than us. But we saw a lot of diversity everywhere and people from that community really seemed to enjoy living there. For the reason that they are free to do our say what they please. For me having a chance to visit Castro street was a very good place to learn about diversity on different ways. They had a lot of restaurants and stores to shop at. The best part about our trip was how we also got to chill in Dolores park at San Fransisco. Which was pretty cool and diverse. Even though it was a place were there were mostly Kay people. I really liked the way we got a Chance to talk to them about how they saw there community. And what they though about the way how there are mostly Kay people around.Something that was interesting was how everyone there was really happy with the way how Castro is known for mostly being for Kay people. This was a good experience to learn about how Castro street majority of residents are Kay. But there nobody judges them in any way Castro doesn't discriminate people. For how they are our how they dress. The best thing I liked was how everyone there is free to do what they please.

Lake Shore & Oakland Garden

Yesterday in our trip to lakeshore we got to interview different types of people there. Something that I noticed while being there was how it was a very small place. But there were a lot of different diversity. In my point of view that was the place were we mostly saw different types of people from different races. Something that I learned from this community was that even though they were different varieties of races there that was one of the main reasons why the residents there choose to work or live there is because of diversity.After we got a chance to explore lakeshore we got to go visit the Oakland Rose Garden, which was really pretty filed with different types of flowers. This was really fun to look at a lot of different color roses.

Old Oakland & Lake Merritt

While I visited old Oakland I had a lot of different views about how everything looked. What I noticed was places were a lot of mostly is population being Asian, White and African American. This was a big impression because there weren't really any Mexicans. And the people that mostly were there to buy different types of vegetables and organic foods. I really liked how people there were selling different types of food.

After visiting Old Oakland and having the opportunity to look at how things were like. We also went to Lake Merrit's and had a chance to enjoy our selves by paddle boating. What we did was really fun because we got to spend time with our friends and got the opportunity to enjoy Lake Merrit's paddle boating program.
