ESTOCE, PAULINE BERNADETTE A.

HALUUU! I am Pauline Estoce, a 21-year-old architecture student whose devotion burns through every hurdle. An Executive Director for Press Relations of United Architects of the Philippines UAPSA NU. I've been an officer of this organization since my freshman year. I like to try or explore everything because I know I can learn and experience more things. They always said that I am "palong palo" in everything; even though the deadline is still far away, I am already planning what to do. I admit that I am competitive in everything, especially academics. I just avoid cramming and spend a lot of time doing that task to prepare better and have a good result.

I can say that this Design 7 subject is the most memorable and my favorite design because it gives me a lot of new perspectives and characters of architecture and how you can tell the story of your work. from the layout, visualizing, planning, designing, oral presentation, and solving problems this subject has taught me.

The project "HABI" became very difficult for us but at the same time exciting. it gives us more knowledge and awareness of the transportation we have in our country or our transit-oriented development. as we observe and open our eyes to the real situation of our country because of our poor transportation system, it encourages me to inspire young people through this design.

This project and journey opened my eyes to new perspectives and goals for the community. I'm sure that everything I learned in this journey and project will be incorporated in my future designs and projects.
