Some People are funny, wild or can’t sit still for a second. I feel that I am the exact opposite. I hear my friends, even family says to “loosen up” or “have some fun” and I just don’t do those things. Me and my dad are exactly the same and my mom is the total opposite. Me and my dad can crack a joke from time-to-time. So we are not that boring.

I do not work with kids, especially younger kids very well. My mom teaches a Kindergarten to first grade Sunday school class and I try to help her as much as I can. The kids are like most kids funny and “cute”. They will say random things or whatever pops into their head. When they say those things that pop into their head my mom laughs the kids laugh but I don't.

    Stereotypes are very prevalent in the United States today. Throughout my life I have seen these stereotypes. In high school, I went to a predominantly black school and I witnessed not only myself, but also my friends being put into a certain group because of our skin color. When we would go play basketball we would be known as the “white boys” and all people thought we could do was shoot. I thought that maybe it was because they had never seen us before, but then my opinion changed.…

    The picture I chose is of me in Colorado, taking a senior picture. I chose it because I think it makes me look good. People choose to present themselves in a way that’s seemingly more aesthetically pleasing than the other people they interact with, or because they want to feel good about themselves when they post it. I chose it because it caught what I perceive as the best view of me - externally. Photos only focus on the external and what’s skin deep.…
