 I believe the most beautiful thing ever created, is the world we live in. There is so much to be done and seen in this world it’s almost impossible to do it in a lifetime, so we have to enjoy what we have and appreciate ever moment.

 I value my sight the most. The world is beautiful and to not be able to experience that would be a death sentence for me. Also it would make my life a lot harder to live and enjoy. But if I lost the others I wouldn’t be as bad

 I always look forward to Christmas. I love spending time with my family and eating a ton of food as well. I also like receiving gifts from people too. We also get off from school to which is nice

 When my mother was pregnant with me her water broke VERY early. The doctors said that I may not even make it and even if I do I might only live till ten years old. But when I came out I was completely health. It wasn’t really a turning point in my life, I think of it more as a reoccurring theme in my life, were if I’m in a bad situation, I probably get out.

 I have outgrown the park. My mom always would take me to the park so I could play but as a 16 (almost 17) year old teen I can’t just go on the playground slide without getting some weird looks. I still wish I could but, it’s not the end of the world

 My father has been saving for collage since I was born, So I have quite a large amount of money to spend on collage and don't have to loan as much. I could also go in state to not spend as much money.

 The words NIRVANA is a word that resonates with me. It means  a  transcendent  state in which there is neither suffering, desire, nor sense of self, and the subject is released from the effects of karma and the cycle of death and  rebirth . It is a concept that I think everyone should know about and understand because of how interesting it is, and it is also the name of a really cool band.

 Personally, I have NEVER checked were something is made before I buy it. I do not care where something is made, if it has a lower price but still high quality I will buy it, so I will not be willing to pay extra for U.S made products, because I don't really care about if it is or not.

 I really don't have cultural food other than the ones that are American. So I guess it will be important to celebrate holidays with their respective foods as I grow up. But some foods I can not live without like wings. Any where I go I make sure they have good wings, just in case I do not like any other food.

      I think the most important aspect of my identity is my love of art and music. I love playing guitar and making art. It is one of the only hobbies I find myself doing frequently. I have made several art works that aren't very good but I am proud of because I made them.

 My favorite word right now is yo. I don’t really know why but I have been using it a lot recently. Not only to greet people, but also just adding it to the end of my sentences. I really don’t know why I do this, I just kinda like it.

 I think it is important to a certain degree. Private information should never be shared online, such as your name, address, and social security number without your permission. But when companies sell your "data" what are they even sell. Not your private info. Just your meaningful info that allows third party companies to strategies, optimizes processes, and identify new opportunity. One other issue though is monitoring cameras that I feel the government has too easy access to.

      All I did over the break was sleep. This was imminent because i've been so tired. My mom kept saying how imparitive to get up and tried to impede on my sleep. I also did go to the gym but my dad (gym buddy) was not in town so my gains were impaired. I also made my self dinner for the first time and made a steak, which I impaired with my knife.

Describe a time when someone offended you with their words.

My Entire family always used to complain that I was to quiet when I was little. I was really she when from kindergarten to even up till freshmen year. So when ever they tell me to be quiet, it really offends me. Now that I am so confident in being myself NOW you want me to be quiet. Every time they say this it just makes my blood boil because they always want me to be more open, but now they don't want me to be myself because I'm "too loud".

What life skills have you learned in high school that will help you live independently after high school? Which skills do you think are essential for your success after high school?

 I think high school has taught me to be more social. Before high school I was very shy and didn't want to really talk to anyone, but I think high school has taught me to talk to people. This will help me a lot with job interviews and just charming people in my life.

What do you think are your biggest strengths as a speaker? What challenges do you face when presenting in front of an audience?

 I think my biggest strength is my friendly tone. People always like to speak to me because I usually speak in a very respectful, friendly tone. I always try to make the conversation seem casual and not like you are forced to communicate with me. I always have a hard time getting over the fear of being judged. I've always kind of been self concise, so the thought of being judged is always in the back of my mind.  

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.

 I wish I was at home  lying in bed  not a care in the world  all my problems gone Away from me  This poem is about me being tired, and not wanting to go to school. I would just like to stay at home away from school. I wish my life was stress free and easy. But that is not really how life is.

Describe a time when you had to speak in front of an audience. What were your fears? How did you handle them? What advice would you give to someone struggling with stage fright?

 Once I had to give a presentation in the 5th grade. I did not want to give this presentation, because I thought the slide show I made was really bad and I was really socially inept in 5th grade. So I got up their and just started to cry... for some reason. After I was done I was still forced to present. If I wear advice to someone that would be; No one cares about your presentation, so just do it. 

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.

      Whenever I start to make music I always think of how I've felt as of late. If I've been in a good mood I will create something fun or upbeat/fast paced. But if I've been sad I will create something slow and drowsy. And when I'm angry I'll create something aggressive. I've been writing just quick little riffs for a few months now, and now I'm ready to actually created and album/EP out of them. I've tried to create things in the past, but now I have ideas for songs that I actually thing sounds good.

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

    Recently I had a tonsillectomy and I could not work for around 2 or 3 weeks. I hated it, I had nothing to do and I was just bored all the time. I also was going broke so I desperately wanted to work but felt awful so I couldn't. My job is very important to me because it is a family owned business and whenever I work it makes me feel like I'm part of something bigger than just me, and also I like the money.
