Imagine writing a letter to yourself 10 years from now. What advice, hopes, or reminders would you include?

 If I would write a letter now to my future self in 10 years, the main thing I would want to hold unto is my faith in God, that would keep me on the right track and keep more morally right. Another thing I hope for is to have travel and jobs that I love that is giving me great assets. I would remind myself to stay moral and humble. I would still care for my family. I would need to stay on top of sports and stay healthy and peak fit. If I have all these things 10 years down the road I will feel accomplished and blessed. Today we did our project planning sheet. 

Describe your personal approach to creativity. What steps do you follow when you’re working on a project. Tell me about a project you created that you were most proud of.

My personal approach to creativity is that your mind capacity and imagination to believe and make things that you think of and your ability to make your imagination come true. I try to plan the project and make an outline in my mind of what it is going to look like then I put it on paper and think step by step on a project until I'm done and then I check all over it. I created this massive painting of a wave that took me hours on hours in school but I had the patience and planning and I finished it. today we worked on our A lesson before dying project and I picked the music picking one. 

Describe a time when you took a hiatus from something important. What led to the break, how did it impact you

 Something that I have paused that’s important and came back too was when I got injured during basketball season and had to stop playing altogether because I had to get surgery. Then I would sit down all day with nothing to do because I could not play any sports or much less move. Overuse of playing sports led to the injury or hiatus of the sports. It definetly impacted me by making me realize that sometimes you can’t take stuff for granted like sports and you have to play them and get better and have your fun even if you don’t feel like it. When I was doing nothing all I wanted to do was get shots up or start hitting again. Today in class we did a vocab assignment and I learned like 10 new words.

Write about something that you heard that you wish you could unhear

 I wish I could unhear when my parents told me back in like 3rd grade when Santa wasn't real, because Christmas was so much more special and exciting when I thought Santa came in the night and dropped off all these presents. It was the best feeling when I would wake up and it was Christmas and I was walking downstairs to see all the presents and eat all the good food that my parents would make. the feeling of giving and reviewing gifts is one of the best feelings ever. Today we worked on missing assignments in lit and in any other class we needed to catch up in. 

Write about a moment when you felt you had the power to make a difference in someone else's life

 A moment when I felt I made a difference on someone else's life was when I would hang out with this kid across my street in the neighborhood who was kinda impaired but he was the sweetest kid and he would enjoy it so much when I hung out with him so I kept it up and did it a couple of times a month and he would just light up every time I saw him and I could tell I was making a difference on his life when I would hang with him and play sports with him and teach him new things. In that moment when he learned how to skate I understood that I really helped this kid out. Today was a snow day and we did a virtual assignment. 

Describe a place where you feel the most at peace and explain why

 I feel most at peace when I'm at the beach in Longboat Key when its almost storming and when the beach is completely empty and I'm by myself surfing or sitting down and looking out into the vast ocean. It's so beautiful and calm and feels so breezy and nice. It's so cool to be outside In Gods creation to enjoy all that it offers. Today we had a snow day and missed school and had a virtual book assignment. 

Reflect on a time you had to rely on someone else. how did it fee?

 One time I had to rely on someone else was in a tennis match with my brother and I got injured towards the end of the match and had a knee disclocation and had to take a timeout and pop it back in basically, then we wrapped it up and I got back in the game. At this point I was just playing at net Mostly and not moving much. So chase was back there running and getting all of the balls and I was complete relying on him until a ball came right at me. But we ended up winning the match and Chase was playing very well and I trusted him and it payed off. Today we went into the library and chose our classes for next year.

Describe when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you

 A time when someone said something that had a lasting impact on me was when my family was at one of my dads friends houses and he said that I was a skinny kid but in a jokingly way and I had always looked up to this friend and that hurt and I wanted to change and grow my body to be bigger since then and I have and that has always been in my mind, making me push harder and get what needs to be done. I think it benifitted more than hurt. Sometimes those harsh words are what make you change for the better I believe. Today we had a virtual day and assignment, but I could not log in to it. 

Write about an object that holds sentimental value and why it’s important to you

 I think the Bible and my bracket that I always wear are the most sentimental things that I have. Firstly the Bible is the most important object ever because it has all I need to know about life and how to live it and what is to come after life and that very special to know that and to know that we have a God and Jesus who died for us. Secondly I have this bracelet on my ankle that I’ve had on for probably around 6 years and I always wear it and it is just cool to have on and feels good that I’ve had this thing on constantly and reminds me of the times I’ve won in life and that I need to keep winning. Today we did a steal sheet and that was something completely new to me but a little confusing to find the right answers. 

What is something you’ve done that is out of your comfort zone

 Something I have done that is out of my comfort zone is to go apply at a bunch of different jobs and see what happens and see how many I can get into that I would enjoy. It was out of my comfort zone because it equites a lot of confidence and speaking skills and I did not want to do it but I did anyway because I wanted to get a job and it would be useful. Today in class we did an analyzation of a lesson before dying and we wrote a letter to the best of our ability. This helped me learn how to write letters more formally.

If you were president of the United States of America, what are 5 things you would do and why?

 If I was President of the United States I would try my best to bring the countries debt to 0. I would conserve and help out the military. I would keep control over the border and not let it get out of hand. I would try not to rule as a dictator and let the people choose and follow the governments moral laws. I would make sure the peace stays and that also every one is still afraid of America and will never try anything. I would also tighten up laws about littering and pollution and I will ban smoking and take all the fast food restaraunts out of here so that people of America can finally be healthy again. Today in class we worked on a newsela about Jimmy Carter.

Write about a dream that felt real

 I had a dream once that felt so real. I was with this girl and we were in a tropical beach resort and I met her the first day and we looked at each other and kept hanging out and it lasted for days then after that we traveled on a journey to other lands, it was so weird but it felt so real and like that was my life. Then we saw these monsters and we ran. I looked at her for the last time then woke up. I was startled and tweaking out when I woke up and kind of sad because the dream was amazing. It was a wonderful memory. Today we did an assignment where we filled some questions and explain them.

What did you do over the break and what are 5 goals you want to achieve in 2025

 I spent time with family in Florida and in Tennessee. I played sports and trained all break. I went hiking and ran some trails. I gave and received gifts with family and friends. I went to church and celebrated Jesus’s birthday and all that he’s done for this world. I took some time to read more of the Bible and continue my faith. I relaxed with my family and got a lot of stuff done around the house. I spent a bunch of time doing things with my brother who is home from college in the break. Things I want to achieve this 2025 is stay healthy and fit. I would also want to be on top of my grades and win tournaments for sports. I will also read the Bible and pray every day.
