In this project, I created a web site in which I reflected on three periods in my life. I was trying to see in each period what I wanted and how did I cope with that want.

Go to the web site.

 
I grew up in the Philippines. As a child, I engaged myself in various projects. My father could not afford the toys I saw on TV, so I tried to make them myself. The stories of the different things I did as a child are in this part of the site.
 
While as a child, I tried to make up for the toys I did not have. As an adolescent growing up in America, I wanted things that I thought required me to change myself, for example, a girlfriend, a better accent, etc.
 
This part of the website explores what I wanted in college. This part of my life is the most unsure about what I want. It seems that every time I decide to pursue a particular endeavor another one shows up which I have to try.
