Sonia: I am a 20 year old college student of indigenous Mexican descent, Huichol. I was born and raised (for the most part) in California and now am studying cultural psychology at a University of California. I’m interested in so many departments though (Feminist studies, History, Community Studies, Environmental Studies, Art, etc. I’m just an all around geek who likes to learn about everything –except for business and economics—very dismal sciences). I love to travel and meet cool people and see different ways to do things. Hear different perspectives. My part time jobs at school are subject tutoring, and T.A.-ing at the school’s toddler center. I relate to toddlers very much. We seem to reason, speak, walk, and eat the same way. I love to learn and see very new things. I have a strange obsession with food. I have a very low threshold for what I consider funny according to most standards? I laugh a lot. I love my family! most of it is in Mexico. No matter what there’s always someone to miss. So I'm always homesick it seems... And always hungry it seems.
