  6. 1.An interesting experience that comes to mind is volunteering at the Memorial Herman hospital and Ben Taub university last summer. The reason I find this experience interesting is because I volunteered at the emergency department and I was exposed to sick people all the time and it made me realize how many people are unwell in daily bases. This was something I had not thought about, considering I am not in the medical field and it really made me appreciate my health more.

    2.What I would like to do, that I have not yet done is: 1) is buy a car, 2) travel around the world, 3) get my PhD, buy a home, 4) and help or take part in humanitarian causes.

    3.I have visited Australia. I actually lived there, Sydney, for almost a year and finished 4th grade there. I have also visited Albania. This was three years ago. I went there for vacation with my family.
