Week 24

I agree with you Miss Hudson. Legos are some of the best toys to own for a developing mind. As a kid, they let you express your imagination through building and creativity. As you grow older, Legos allow you to express a creative ingenuity that you may not have had in the past. Building with Legos allows one to tell a story. They allow those of us that cannot draw to make things that express what we want to show people. I have used Legos on several school projects growing up. In fourth grade, we had to invent an alien creature that lived on one of the other planets in our solar system. I made a dragon-like creature out of Legos and I glued paper wings to it. Then in my 6th grade science class, we were given an assignment to come up with some invention and to show us what it looked like, what it did, and how it was a good contribution to the world. I used my Legos and I built a rescue vehicle with six wheels. The wheels could be replaced with skis or even wings. This interchangeability allowed it to be an effective vehicle on all terrains.

Week 23

The perfect Paradise would be quite a large place. I enjoy living life. I think that in order to fully enjoy the life one has, he/she must try as many things as possible. I think that in my Paradise, there would be a very large room full of musical instruments and equipment. I would be able to spend all the time in the world there. Another room would be a library. I really enjoy reading when I have the time to do so. I don't find reading to be a chore. In my Paradise, there would have to be a vast selection of foods to eat. To top it all off, my personal Paradise would need to be a place that makes my friends happy as well. Seeing my friends smiling and having fun is all the Paradise one needs.

Week 22

Random Acts of Kindness Week really only stands out in that I witness other people being more kind to others. I always try my hardest to be nice to everyone I meet. I make it my personal goal to make everyone around me happy. When everyone in the room is in a good mood, it makes life worth living. If everyone spent their lives in a constant state of dismal silence, I think the world would fall apart at the seams. (can spheres have seams?) I am always in a good mood. If I every appear to be upset, then something must have really aggravated me. I am really bad at holding a grudge. I know that some people have bad days where they snap at something someone else does. I get it. I don't judge people based on their actions unless those actions are consistent over a long span of time. If someone makes it clear that they do not like me or that I am annoying them, I let it slide. If it happens repeatedly, then I begin to judge that that person really does not like me for some reason.

Week 21

I'm not much of a romantic. My birthday is on Valentine's Day, so the "day of love" has kind of ruined my birthday experience. Nobody remembers my birthday unless I remind them. At school, all the people around me are freaking out over their dates. They all want everything to be perfect and mushy and romantic, but I just want a proper birthday. I never get to have my birthday party on my birthday because all of my friends have plans for Valentine's Day dinner with their significant other. My birthday party always has to come the weekend before my birthday or the weekend after it. I've learned to accept the fact that Valentine's Day is important to everybody while my birthday is really only important to me. For some people, having no attention on their birthday would sound amazing, but it's nice to be noticed every once in a while...especially on one's birthday.

Week 20

This picture describes my family's interests as a whole. These rules are the most magical things I have ever seen, and my family would understand almost all of them.

This picture describes the first thing that my family bonded together over. We had watched bits of it before, but this show brought us together.

My family is a congregation of geeks. My dad is a huge fan of Doctor Who and Lord of the rings. My mother is a huge fan of Doctor Who and the Hunger Games. I love all of these fandoms. My little brothers are somewhere in between.
























Three is close enough to five, right?

Week 19

If I could be reincarnated as any animal, I would probably choose to become a dolphin. I love swimming and dolphins are some of the best swimmers in the ocean. Some scientists say that dolphins are some of the most intelligent creatures on the planet, behind humans. If I could be a dolphin, I would travel around the world and I would help animals that are injured or stuck. I would use my superior aquatic intelligence to fix all the problems in the ocean. I would become an underwater folk tale. I would be the best darn dolphin the world has ever seen.


Fin
^
^       P.S.
That is funny because the word "fin" means "end" in Spanish. It also refers to the appendages on aquatic creatures.

Week 18

The things that make me happy include, but are not limited to, playing music, playing video games, making people laugh, being with my friends, kittens, and swimming.
I love playing music, because it is something I am truly passionate about. I love picking up a guitar or sitting at a piano. I love the way I can change the tone of a song with the slightest movement of my fingers.
One of the things that sets me apart from other people is my talent for making people laugh. I feel that everyone has a better day when they are smiling, so I make it my goal to get everyone to laugh at least one time during the day. Being in a jubilant environment makes me happy.
I love playing video games because I am a competitive person. Turning on my Xbox and playing a game to win is always fun (except when people cheat...that's never fun).
Being with friends is one of the best ways for someone to be in a good mood. When one is with the people that they consider friends, then the get to let off their stress and they can be who they want to be.
Kittens...enough said.
For as long as I can remember, I've always loved swimming. I could stay in the water all day, even though I get sunburn very severely.

Week 17

If there was a TV station that wanted to document my high school life, then I would probably just do what I normally do. I would live my life normally. To make things a little more interesting, I would do things that I normally don't do more often. I would be more productive and more creative. I don't think that I would need to be any different. I make plenty of people laugh. I think that being followed by cameras would get really, really annoying.
