Favorite restaurant has to be long horn since I grew up going there for my either my birthday or one of my parents.
I chose UMBC because I feel like I belong I don't feel overwhelmed by people and classes that I am attending. The event is not overwhelming as well they make you feel like it is a family event.
Fun fact about me is that I was born in El Salvador and moved here when quite young. Another fact is that I like going hiking and traveling.
What makes UMBC home is that it gives off a home friendly environment you don't feel overwhelmed. Every staff member is very nice, and they are all willing to help you. All the event that happens here like homecoming are the best since there's a carnival, dog parade, and a petting zoo with farm animals.
