So far this year I have liked the Volcano project, a lot because it is more hands-on, and that is what I find most delightful. I also liked it because we …show more content…
I like to work alone sometimes, but I also like to work with people that I do well with (“hint” “hint” “Alexa”) This year I have encountered many fun projects, like the time we tried to make fire, or when we went outside and built forts, mabey when we had to make a video for Hawaii, because you will perceive that I also like to edit videos and work on computers.

    My favorite lesson/topic I learned this year was about cannibalism, Jamestown and Disney’s inaccurate movies. I liked learning about Jamestown because when the settlers ran out of food, they ate each other. I also liked learning about this because we got to play Minecraft and build our own little Jamestown. I enjoyed learning about cannibalism in general because I liked seeing Jaylens reaction about everything, and because it was just fun to learn about in general. If someone does cannibalism or “Biggest Fails in History” for ROWVA Chill I'm definitely taking that class.…

This exercise involved the use of ropes that were set up as obstacles and everyone had to get through them with the help of the teammates.

    The two years were full of memorable teachers, somewhat hard work, and Model UN. Math 7, Science, English, Drama, History, and Creative Writing formed the skeleton of my 7th grade activities.

While participating in the school’s service learning project, I became a tutor and a game host. Learning about essays finally allowed me to create great essays.…

    People come together for many different reasons. In the days since my Uncle Ricky got hurt on his motorcycle and found out he had cancer people have really come together and been there for him. People have gathered together and thrown him a “Celebration of Life” party that over 150 people came together to celebrate. My Uncle Ricky was a truck driver so we brought in the trucks and blew the horn for him one last time. Just like in the movie Freedom Writers, how the black people came together with the Mexicans and Cambodian people and had parties.…

    Thinking and unfolding crumpled papers from my first three years here, I remember how horrific and terrifying the first day was. I specifically remember taking deep breaths in and out as the bus unloaded all the students. Before I had gotten on the bus, my mother stood on the porch outside, and I blew at least three kisses to her as I walked down the driveway, and she blew one last kiss to me before I turned around to hop up the steep stairs. By the middle of the day, I began to cry and tried to sneak out to the bathroom. I was crying because I had missed my mom, and the four hours I had been there were far too long.…

    The goal of Boys & Girls Clubs is: “to provide a world-class Club experience that assures success is within reach of every young person who walks through our doors, with all members on track to graduate from high school, on time, with a plan for the future.” As a Club staff with little weight behind me to support this goal, it makes me a stone’s throw away from being labeled a hypocrite when I almost didn’t graduate from high school, let alone have a plan for the future. My childhood wasn’t glamorous enough to brag about, nor was it full of grief-stricken struggles that would warrant a tug at any heartstrings. It was simple. I grew up with both of my parents and my brother who was 4 years my senior.…
