My life can be divided into two segments. The first part I lived with my family and Mexico City, the second part started when I moved to Austin in the start of college. The live that I lived in each of the sections has been different from the activities that I took part in, all the way to what kind of location those activities occurred. In this paper I will explain the two mental maps that I created. For each map I will compare and contrast the Landmarks, nodes, edges, paths, and edges in each of

happy to be alive. I have had a couple of intense accidents that might be considered brushes with death and I feel very blessed to still be here. Quite honestly, I never thought I would be writing an essay with the hopes of being accepted to Texas A & M University.
