I decided to take advantage of my Baruch ID and go to the New York Hall of Science for several reasons. First, it is close to my home, I had never gone and always wanted to, and finally, because I figured my little brother would like it as well. I’m currently taking chemistry, a subject I’m not really enjoying at all. I came to the New York City Hall Of Science seeking a topic or exhibition that would bring me closer to like chemistry, or being interested in it at all.
Since the New York City Hall Of Science is an interactive museum, learning was not as tedious as I thought it would be. The first exhibition was really engaging, it explores the possibilities of life beyond earth. Using certain chemical explanations of reactions and patters that have happened at Earth, the exhibition was really interactive and presented several hypothesis of how life could be generated at other places in our solar system. The scientific explanations were pretty simple, and easy to understand, which made it easier for me to enjoy the visit. There were several chemistry terms and explanations I was able to understand, and at some point I did find interesting.
Nonetheless, I have always liked Physics and mechanics better, so my favorite exhibit was the one on my picture called Seeing the Light. There were several exhibits about light and other waves as well. Since it is an interactive museum, I got to understand how light travels through exhibits that would have me doing activities and exploring material.
Although it made me feel like a young child, 
the Hall of Science was an opportunity for me to see that I do enjoy science, it only takes me a more interactive approach, for me to enjoy it as much as I enjoyed those exhibitions. I believe that the greatest effect it had on my academic enrichment was finding out how to access and study science, since I have to deal with that chemistry class on my block schedule.
