Hey, there! This week I am joined by my best friend, Jos\xe9. After a tea talk about gummy worms and the story of why he\u2019s on the podcast, you get to know him through rapid fire questions about memories, lessons, motivation, and goals. Firstly, we talk about Jose\u2019s current academics: his studies, post-grad plans, and STEM advice. Secondly, we explore our friendship: it\u2019s meaning, staying close, giving advice, showing support, the value of friendship, and his friends\u2019 families. Thirdly, Jose opens up about applying to colleges in the US: translating achievements, what ifs, lessons, and reflections. Then, Jose asks me his questions and shares his recommendations before signing off.\n\n\nFOLLOW THE PODCAST\u2019S INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/theasteapodcast?igshid=r04b2760fkdl\nCONTACT ME THROUGH: theasteapodcast@gmail.com (for business inquiries, sponsorships or to tell me what you think about this podcast!)\nSEND ME A VOICE MESSAGE: https://anchor.fm/th351a-beaury/message\nCHECK OUT THE DESIGNERS OF MY COVER ART: https://instagram.com/sofiarrublacreative?igshid=1xtsd1w69zkkl\nhttps://instagram.com/cuerpobaldio?igshid=1jq5cb59nm2z\nListen to my other podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3RhYyCBLVwBuNimne4zVCO?si=AG_LzDsuQdqBYedSmFOkfQ\nSTART YOUR PODCAST NOW BY HEADING TO anchor.fm\n\n\nCHECK OUT THE THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE (IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE):\nClap burgers\nPorsche Cayenne\nPremio VS Kola Rom\xe1n\nLuna Gil\nKarol G\nChef Burger\u2019s \u201cpapas americanas\u201d\n\n\nHERE ARE SOME QUOTES I LIKED FROM THIS WEEK\u2019S EPISODE:\n\u201cYou shouldn\u2019t lay all your eggs in one basket, instead, try diversifying your portfolio\u201d\n\u201cI would always exchange two points on an exam for diversified experience outside of the classroom\u201d\n\u201cIf you have better grades but no experience; you won\u2019t get a job\u201d\n\u201cSometimes you need to suffer a little, but the end result will be worth it\u201d\n\u201cWork hard and learn to expect good results\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s a good idea to study a primary field of engineering\u201d\n\u201cFriendship comes naturally, it\u2019s looking out for someone, getting to know them, and thinking about them\u201d\n\u201cFriendship is helping each other grow simultaneously\u201d \n\u201cSharing memories and inside jokes cultivates a connection\u201d\n\u201cIf you think about something way before it happens, you\u2019re just putting yourself through it twice\u201d\n\u201cYou need to really care about someone to give them good advice\u201d\n\u201cFace challenges as soon as possible, but with a thoughtful analysis gives you confidence\u201d\n\u201cBe kind but direct\u201d \n\u201cThe difference lies in constantly checking in\u201d\n\u201cWhen I\u2019m giving advice I try to make people laugh\u2026 for all you know, that could be the only time they laugh that day\u201d\n\u201cI value friends based on what I\u2019ve experienced with them\u201d\n\u201cHaving a friend that is willing to share their family with you is so valuable\u201d\n\u201cWe took the risk.
