Write about something that you believed as a child.

 One thing that I believed as a child, was that wishes really would come through, especially at Disney World. Our family was very lucky, because my father's company was a corporate sponsor of Disney, so we would get free travel there multiple times a year. Because of this, Disney felt like a second home to me growing up. I have distinct memories of seeing the parades, meeting the characters, and especially making wishes at the wishing well. I know now that the wishes for unlimited candy, to have magic powers, or to never leave the park were all never going to happen, but I do believe that by wishing, I made my trips better, and still to this day I always make a wish at the wishing well that my trip will continue to get better and better. 

Today in class, they read more of The Color Purple, then took a group quiz. I am still home with food poisoning, but I am hoping to be back for the full day on Friday. I am very sad because after working so hard all semester to reduce my absences, I have to take all of my finals now, just because I ate some really bad pasta.

What do you believe is the most beautiful creation in the world—natural or man-made—and why?

 I believe the most beautiful creation in the world is waterfalls. There's something so magical about the cascading water and the way it falls on the rocks below. They truly show me the scale of the Earth, and how small I am in comparison to everything. I can't see them and not thank God for everything he does. Today in class we read the poem Tyger and answered questions about it. I really enjoyed this poem, especially in regards to Earth Day. I am going to the aquarium with my friends for a yoga class today and I am very excited.

What life skills have you learned in high school that will help you live independently after high school? Which skills do you think are essential for your success after high school?

 One skill that I have learned in high skill that will help me live independently after high school is how to be assertive. I used to be very scared to speak my mind and enact change, but with the help of theater, I have learned how to speak my mind and be true to myself. I actually was presented an award from Georgia Thespians this weekend, for being the top theater maker of the year, and I am so honored. I think this will help me when I grow up because I will be able to make change happen, and I can speak my truth.  Today in class we had a newsELA where we learned about the Bill of Rights. It was super interesting, and I am excited to learn more.

Imagine it's the year 2050. What does the world look like? How have technology, society, and the environment changed?

 In the year 2050, I hope that technology is improving the way the world is running. I feel like there will be new ways that people communicate that we cannot even begin to imagine with our current technology. I feel like AI will help many businesses, and it will be commonly used in everyday life, just like the phone is now. I hope that there will be a better environment than there is now, otherwise we are in trouble. I also hope that there is a positive push towards equality for everyone.  Today in class we read more of the Color Purple and answered questions about it. Also, I apologize for this being late. My brother broke his ankle last night, and I had to take him to urgent care. I am thriving on about 2 hours of sleep.
