“Our architecture teacher teaches us a lot from the history of architecture to designing in the present day, and about our future careers as architects. It has made me want to become an architect or at least study architecture. Today we've talked about portfolios and what is necessary for that next movement to college and to get accepted into University. It's helped me a lot to prepare for the next two years, and where I'm going to be heading to get to that point.”
