Steamboat Natchez Review On 11/4/2016, my classmates and I went on the Riverboat Natchez, down the Mississippi River. As we headed to New Orleans, you could hear the beautiful calliope playing before you actually saw the old boat. Once we got there, we had to wait in line. One of my few complaints about the boat was the wait. We waited in line twenty minutes at least. And about another thirty before the boat actually started moving. Even though the wait was long, the crew was very welcoming. While we waited, they let us take a class photo.

    When it was still in operation, one of my favorite treats was to sit outside at Alice Waters' Cafe Fanny and eat beignets with jam while my mom drank Cafe Au Lait. Growing up in a food-centric place made Alice Waters and her farm-to-table movement common knowledge to me. I imagine myself sitting with Alice at Cafe Fanny asking questions about her life as an activist. I wonder how Alice knew how to turn her passion for food justice into action.…

    On September 15, I went and took part in el Grito ceremony held at the Miller Outdoor Theater to celebrate the Mexican Independence Day. I did not know what was el Grito, so I went to that event with an open mind. The show came after a long speech in both Spanish and English about the Mexican community in Houston and the impact of Harvey on the community. I really enjoy the sense of community that I experienced during that event. People came as a family or with a group of friends.…

    Two and a half years ago, quite a few of the men in this dear town were sent on an expedition to inspect and map out the land that President Thomas Jefferson purchased. This mission was a success, despite what the people believe. I cannot lie, this journey was not easy; it was incredibly difficult, but it was worth the money you spent. We learned a lot that can help in the future, the reward we received is greater than the price you paid.…

    When I go college, I do not want to give up my favorite activities, but rather, build upon established interests and create new ones. Honestly, I do not know all of the activities in which I may participate while attending university. This is not because I do not know what I like; I just that I have not been exposed to these things yet. Although my personality is not fully molded, I actively search for novel and fulfilling experiences relating to music, food, and travel.…

    Feed my starving children is a non-profit organization that packages food to send to malnourished children in several countries. These sustainable meals are made specifically to pack as many nutrients as possible to help nourish and strengthen the children so they can be healthy and conquer their fight against starvation. When most people think about global hunger they think of a lack of production of food in developing countries, however, it’s more than that. Global hunger encompasses not only food production and security, but also distribution and access.

    For my Senior Experience I did my research paper on Genetically Modified Food and why it should be labeled and separated from Non-Genetically Modified Food. When I started the project picking a topic was easy.
