Chances.

In the Philippines, the majority of citizens don’t have very strong life chances, especially because many are born in poverty. The wage gap is so wide that the poverty percentage is 18.7%.

Field study.

In order to do proper research on subjects, experiments will be recreated to try to analyze the data. Like in this display, items are recreated to emulate the real thing. 

A father and son.

I see our family as a typical nuclear family, with my parents being together, them having a pretty steady income, and 3 kids, we live a very basic life compared to other families. 

Goodbye for now.

Saying goodbye to my grandparents and cousins as we go our separate ways in the Philippines. My extended family, though far from my home in California, are still important and prominent in my life.

Representation through art.

An art piece I found on the street reminded me how important representation is in media.

Challenger.

Ronald McNair, the only black man on a space crew of seven crew members, was about to be the first black man to make it to space. Despite heavy segregation and discriminations at the time (the 1950s) he was able to make it pretty far. Unfortunately during launch, he had passed away due to the shuttle exploding.

Preparing together.

Parties are often held at my family’s house because of my parent’s cooking and because how comforting my extended family finds my house. 

Almost unnoticeable.

In this collection of pins, there is hiding a pride flag with the theme of star wars insignias. Though I’m not completely ready to express my sexuality fully publicly, I still like to rep little hints of it.

Tradition through religion.

My parents put this rosary on the rear view mirror to protect themselves and their passengers. This is a thing a lot of Filipinos to in their car, and though I don’t know the origins of this tradition, the patters of this happening are very prominent. 

Burger lot.

Terrible’s casino and gas station.

Because the main goal of many travelers are to make it to Las Vegas, where the main attractions are casinos, the shopping strip, and varying tourist attractions. The result of this is other brands making casinos to attract customers with such goals. 

Strained advertising.

Paving the way.

Before people came to California, some of the first people to settle here were gold miners. I thought this gold miner was similar to that of the theorists who came up with the main ideas of sociology.
