Lego Robot Building

By:Giselle Ortiz

           My robot building experience was kind of challenging. The building of the robot was very difficult because of the various steps and instructions. While working with this robot, only some integrants of my groups helped me.
          I was very excited to build the robots. It was a great experience because i learned how to program and set up a robot. It was a very fun experience to be able to work with the people who helped me because we created a good bond in which we used to build the robot together. 
          This was my first time having to build robots. However, i found it as if it was a very great challenge. It was a great project to gain the ability to work with robots. It gave me the gain of having the ability to program and build robots.

About Me.



About Me.


    My name is Giselle Ortiz and I am 15 years old and in the 10th grade. I attend Elizabeth Learning Center and I an in the Technology Academy. I have great plans for me in the future. I want to become someone important in life and be the person I want to become. I want to study computer engineering. My main goal at this point in my life is to graduate from University. I want to to Columbia University in New York. I would want to study in New York because I want to explore the world. One of my plans in the future is to travel around the world. I want to                                                                                       learn about all the different cultures and                                                                                             customs.
         
In my free time, I like to play softball. Softball wasn't a sport that I intended to play in the beginning. I actually was forced to join by peer pressure from a close friend of mine. At this time, I do not regret joining. I am very thankful of my friend for making me join this sport because I  really enjoy and became a fanatic. I have had a great experience in this sport. It helped me become more social and confident in myself. I became friends with people who I never expected to even talk to and I accomplished goals that were never really going to be a part of my life. I learned to play a sport that was boring to me before. But not that I've learned the techniques and mechanics of the sport and I learned how the game is played, it is not as boring as I thought it was. My family and I enjoy playing this sport together as well.
     
       My family and I are very united. In my family there are 5 members including me. My mother and fathers names are Maria and Leobardo Ortiz. I have a brother and a sister. My brother's name is Luis Ortiz and he is 19 years old. My sister's name is Eva Ortiz and she is 10 years old. As a family, we love to explore. We always go to different places such as them parks, restaurants, and different activities.

   


When it comes to technology, I am very affiliated with the subject. My brother has taught me to do many things. He has taught me everything I know. He taught me to use the computer when I was about 7 years old. When I have nothing to do I like to use the electronic devices that I own. Sometimes I like using my phone, computer, tablet .. etc. In this class, I hope to learn more about computers. I'd like to learn how to program and install applications/programs and computers. I'd also like to learn how to put together a computer internally.
