text-align: left;\">\nWhile we were leaving, Daniel told me about one of the most impressionable conversations he had while working here. He was told that the most important thing about teaching kids (and anyone in general) is not to spout out facts and tell them what to know, but to guide them to find the answers for themselves. For those you want to teach, encourage them to seek knowledge and never stop wondering. I thought about my favorite teachers in school when he said that, and how they always made me think for myself &#8212; they never gave me the answer right away, and, though embarrassing, allowed me to learn from my mistakes and guided me to figure things out through trial and error. Next to our parents, teachers really are our most formulative influences growing up, and it&#8217;s amazing just how much of their presence and wisdom shapes how we learn and treat learning as adults.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: left;\">\nClose friends of mine (and if you&#8217;ve been around my blog long enough&#8230;) already know that my favorite things to visit in new cities are 1) aquariums 2) planetariums\/observatories 3) museums in general, and I have several teachers throughout my education to thank for that fascination. It&#8217;s my sincerest wish that field trips to places like the Pacific Science Center remain an integral opportunity for primary and secondary students.<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: left;\">\nI think I&#8217;ve rambled enough for this post, woops! Anyways&#8230; We had dinner with my mom at The Grill from Ipanema, a Brazillian BBQ restaurant playfully named after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=weGbfo3vm-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one of my favorite songs<\/a>, and ate so much food! It was such a fun dinner. \u2665__\u2665 So fun in fact that I didn&#8217;t take any photos&#8230; which I immensely regret because who knows when I&#8217;ll ever be able to eat there again ;__; oh well. Sometimes you just have to enjoy the moment. Thank you to everyone for the heartfelt birthday wishes, and for making the beginning of 2016 so full of love and warm feelings!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting off the new year with my birthday!
