If you had to write a poem about your life RIGHT NOW, what would it be about? Explain your answer in at least 4 to 5 sentences.

 If I had to write a poem about my life right now, it would be about my journey to finish my final high school year right. I would list how I'm trying to keep my relationships close and tight as a way to preserve them once I leave. I would also explain how I'm trying to stay on top of my study and abolish any bad habits that still linger. I would list the things I'm doing to fulfill the time until graduation. I would write about the many applications, forms, and emails I've had to sent. I would also write how I feel currently and my hopes and goals for the future. Today, we continued learning about The Writing Process. Today, we covered thesis statements, specifically 3-point thesis statements and umbrella thesis statements. I like this lesson as sometimes I feel my writing is very bland or repetitive especially when it comes to essays, as I didn't know what else I could change while staying to the rubrics. These have taught me valuable skills I can use in college. Today, I am very tired. I stayed up cramming as much as I could for a Calculus test I had at 7am. It was worth it as I was able to pass even though I had done no work relating to the current units. I am also sore from working out, so I really just want to sleep.

Summarize your holiday break. In addition, write about 5 personal goals that you want to achieve in 2025. Explain why you chose those goals.

All holiday break, I spent my time filling out and finalizing college applications. I enjoyed about 4 days of my break, sleeping and playing video games to distract myself from realizing I had school on Monday. I wrote many paragraphs and rewrote my essays many times, but I am happy with the final result. 5 personal goals I have for 2025 are passing all my classes with a B or above, getting a job during the summer so I have something to do during college, successfully transitioning from High School to College, keeping in touch with my friends as we move onto different paths in life, and improving myself into my journey of becoming an adult. I chose these goals as they are beneficial for my life journey, being things that can benefit me or push me to be better every day. Today, I feel okay. I'm still finishing applications and have more stuff I had to deal with, so I hope it gets resolved soon so I can finally have peace. I also have a practice on the first day of this semester, get...

Consider a film that portrays your culture. Reflect on how accurately your culture is represented and the potential impacts of this portrayal.d

 Coco is a 2017 Mexican Pixar film that portrays the traditions of the day of the dead and the life of a Mexican boy fighting to become a musician against his family’s wishes. The film accurately captures the beauty of Mexican culture, traditions, architecture, and music. This paints Mexicans and Hispanics as a whole as a culturally rich and beautiful group, rather than the lazy and stealing portrayal of the media. Today, we presented our racial stereotype presentations. I enjoyed this because we went in depth about specific cultures we chose and presented it to people who may be unaware. Today, I feel okay. I only showed up to this class because I did not want to get a 0.

Reflect on a time you had to rely on someone else. How did it feel?

 I remember in Sophomore Year, I had to rely on my friends to take me to the soccer games to perform in the Winter Drumline. I would stay after school every game just so when they came to pick up equipment, they could take me as well. It made me feel inferior and mad that I didn't have any other way, staying until 5:30pm every week just to play and then later having to find someone else to take me home. At the same time, I was thankful that they would take me every time with no complaint, being a reason why I do the same for others now that I have a car and can drive. I understand the struggle and don't want anyone to not participate just because they don't have a ride there or back. Today, we continued reading The Color Purple by Alice Walker. We learned about Sofia's conditions in prison, her friends/family finding a way to get her out, and the aftermath of her being free. I enjoyed the different perspectives we saw, as well as the social hierarchy in place at the tim...
