Ecuador trip
Every time I go to Ecuador i always wonder how there’s so many policies but they don’t do anything to help the people. I understood that not every police can help everyone who’s in need for help. It made me realize I want to be a police one day and help people who are in danger and I want to change the world. It’s ridiculous to think that one person can change the world but it can help one family overcome a situation or help them in general. Everyone has their own train of taught of what they want to be when they get older. It took time for me to think what I really want to be. I like helping others and making sure they don’t feel like they’re in danger. Over the summer I went to Quito with my mom and dad it’s a big city and its just like Chicago with the the population. You usually walk outside with a group of people do nothing strange happens to you. Everytime we went out to walk I always saw a cop around the corner and they were always watching to see what’s going on. We were walking to the mall one day in Quito and as we entered every store and in the mall we had to go through these machines and every person that had a purse or any bags with them would have to put it in a locker. I didn’t understood why they’d have to put their bags in the lockers. It felt like everyone was watching you every step you made and seeing people’s eyes on you. It’s a overwhelming feeling because you just want to tell them to leave me alone . Of course you couldn’t so I just kept giving them glares to see what they’re were trying to do. I remember I asked my dad about why they do this in Quito and how come they’re so strict about everything. He told me since the mall has a lot of clothing, accessories from the United States they don’t want anything to happen to their possession.
