I was disappointed that we were not able to participate in the Zumba class at the Bayside Community Center. However, I was not disappointed with the interactions we had with the community members at the Bayside Center. My favorite thing about being a Life Course Scholar are all the different opportunities that we have, to communicate and engage with the community. I love talking and listening to people and their perspective on life, and how they got to where they are now. Everybody has a different journey in life, so it makes me wonder about my journey in life. Where will I be in twenty years from now. Now, my life at (almost) twenty years is about adulting, discovering, and learning about myself and the world around me. My name is Alisa Hul, pronounced Aleesha, not Alissa, funny story is my mom genuinely believes that is how you spell Alisa, so that is how I pronounce my name. I am enjoying my last years as a teen before turning twenty years old next month. I was born and raised in a city within Orange County; my family has never moved, aside from across the street in the same neighborhood. I went to the same schools as my neighbors and friends, but when it was time for college, we all went to different schools, I am the only one who attends the University of California, San Diego. This is a little background on who I am, where I am from, and how I am in San Diego. At the Bayside Community Center, fellow course scholars and I were able to talk and listen to a community member who was at the Zumba class. We talked about her life at twenty and our own lives at twenty. She had this bracelet with all her sisters and cousins name on it. Now, I want to do something like that for my family. This conversation made me want to ask my family and others about their life at twenty.
