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

   Technology has evolved significantly. We will have AI and robots doing most jobs. Society it'self still isn't peaceful since no matter what we will never be in harmony. The environment  itself is destroyed, in 2050 we might be living in bubbles to survive. Animals and plants will be extinct, the air will basically be poison to us and trees were be rare to see. With the way things are looking now, it will affect the future later in terrible ways and maybe, if we change now, in a good way. Worked on our project or A Lesson Before Dying chapter 26-28.

Imagine writing a letter to yourself 10 years from now. What advice, hopes, or reminders would you include?

 Don't let people define you, that I need to make a name for myself out in the world. That I came from a family that has nothing, two hard working parents that tried to give me everything. From people who the world consider "dangerous aliens" and family who talk down about me. From a male dominated world where women still aren't as equal as men. That in a man's eye, i'll never match him in anything: strength or intelligence. Where I need to work 10x harder to prove my point. To remind myself that I need to keep going no matter what happens, no matter the obstacles that appear in my way. To take care of myself because waking up everyday is a blessing since some people don't ever wake up. That I have so much to prove to people who don't think I'll do anything great in life. That life will never be fair and I just have to work with whatever I have. To never forget where I came from and what I suffered. We just worked on our projects.

Describe your personal approach to creativity. What steps do you follow when you’re working on a project. Tell me about a project you created that you were most proud of.

 I, personally, don't have an approach or any steps when it comes to creativity. I just sit there and get random thoughts sometimes. They just come to me mid way while a person is talking or i'm listening to music. Once I get this creative thought, I just slowly start putting it into action. I had a project with my friend Erika to make a Biome in environmental science. We chose rain forest, while she worked on the physical part, she wanted me to work on the letter. I remembered I started at the letter and just let the words come to me. The teacher really liked the letter and the box. We both got a good grade on it. We started working on A Lesson Before Dying project. That some people represent songs. To pay closer attention to people from what they wear, how they act, what they listen to, etc. can say a lot about a person.

Describe a time when you took a hiatus from something important. What led to the break, and how did it impact you?

 I remember when I took a break from school. I had a lot going on at the time, it was affecting me mentally and physically. I would tell my parents that i'm feeling unwell and my brother would vouch for me. Taking a break from school helped me work on my mental and physical health since I would always strain myself to talk to people even when i'm not okay. It did affect my grades and I had to do summer school but to me it was worth it. My parent's weren't happy about it but their opinions didn't matter to me. We worked on vocabulary lesson 9. I learned more words to use in my vocabulary. I can start using all these words in conversations or in any writing assignments I might have.

Write about something that you heard that you wish you could unhear.

 My dad telling me he fell out of love with my mom. It hurt to hear because they would kiss and hug, then he comes and tells me that. It hurt my heart but I knew my dad was serious. He told me he didn't love her for a while now and only stayed for me and my brothers. But its okay now, they worked through their problems and are happy again. But I wish I never heard those words because now it scares me that everything might be a lie. Worked on missing assignments. That I need to be more productive and on top of it again. That I can't slack off or ignore it, the problem won't disappear.

Write about a moment when you felt you had the power to make a difference in someone else's life.

 When my friend came to complain to me about her relationship problems. The man has her stressing and she wouldn't have a good time. I knew if I said something that was targeted but without a name, he would get the hint. He did and broke up with her and kinda put the blame on me. But now, shes happier and seems to be looking better. She forgot all about the man that had her stressing. Suppose to work on chapter 23-25 but didn't. My Chromebook was dead and didn't have a charger.

Describe a place where you feel the most at peace and explain why.

 I feel the most peaceful in my room. I feel safe and comfortable in my own settings. I can listen to music, lay in the comfort of my bed and relax with my dog and stuff animals. My room always been my relaxed place because I can just lock and open my window and do whatever. My dog is a bonus that helps me relax. Was suppose to work on chapter 20-22 but my power went out.
