 I once told my friend to always focus on his future self not his present. He hadn't been doing his homework after school and he had asked me, how do you know? I said that I once didn't do my homework everyday after school and I started doing bad in classes because of it. I told him that I didn't want him to have to go down the same rabbit hole I did. He then tarted doing his homework everyday right after school.

 When it comes to learning methods in class, I typically like class discussions the most. I like hearing what every one has to say when it comes to a topic or a subject. It feels like I'm in a courtroom or thanksgiving where people are talking and adding on things as well. It lets others see and hear what their peers have to say when it comes to the discussion. More class discussions would help us become my connected and closer to each other.

 I will never understand the universe that we live in. We are just a rock floating in nothing surround by other rocks. We are the only rock with life, we are by ourselves out here in this massive universe. We have each other and thats it, there is no other planet somewhere that can help us or save us. We are what we have, you, me, and everyone on this rock. We always focus on where we are, earth, But we never focus on what's outside of that.

 Lots of people are different and similar in many unique and different ways. One thing that I differ from other people would be my creativity. I always like to plan something ahead in my head and break it down before I even start it. It lets me help with what I want to accomplish and finish off with. Art, Film, Writing, anything really.

 I've lived in Atlanta my whole life, but there are still lots of places that I am not familiar with. The community is very mixed around here with all sorts of cultures and races. Atlanta is a big city and full of lots of different cool places with cool people. If you've never been to Atlanta and are wanting to move there you should if you want to meet cool people and fun new places to explore. I've enjoyed Atlanta my whole life, i don't see how anyone couldn't, besides the driving here

This isnt the most creative thing I've ever made but its something I made all by myself and a, proud of. I love old technology and the years 80s through 2010s and so I have a whole corner dedicated to those years. What I first added into my setup was an old tube tv that my grandma didn't want anymore and I took it. It works good and the picture graphics are good, the only thing that stinks is that one of the speakers are broken but the other one is perfectly fine. So when I got it all set up I plugged in my Super Nintendo, N64, and Playstation 2 which I love because it can play Games, Dvds, and CDs. Later on I had found my parents old VHS player so I then hooked that up. We didn't have any movies so I started buying them and I now have more than I can handle.

A time I felt lost was my first time ever going to a sleep away camp. I had never been to a sleep away camp till that year and the only other person I knew was going to be my friend and we weren't even going to be in the same group the whole week. The camp is called Glisson, and it's basically a camp where you learn and talk about God but also do abunch of fun activities. Anyways, I show up and I'm a little nervous because I dont know anyone in my group and my parents had just dropped me off. I didn't feel like i was fitting in since everyone else in my group had been years prior. By the end of the week, I had had a great time and was excited about going next year.

 Me and my friend both had an argument about a few months ago. It was about a video game the both of us would play after school and on the weekends. Me and my friend use to play it all the time years ago but as we played more and the game changed more and more it wasn't getting any ore fun. I had told him that I was going to stop playing it because I wasn't having as much fun as I use to, he thought I was joking but I wasn't. I told him the reasons why i didn't like the game anymore and he started to get mad. Ever since that conversation he still doesn't like how I bad mouthed that game.

 I once had told my friend that he should start taking ownership of stuff instead of not thinking about it. I said to him that when he does something and doesn't tell someone he did it, it looks bad on him and me since people will start thinking I act like him. He once threw a ball at a kid and the ball had hit his head, the boy had turned around and asked us who hit him. I was watching at the time and looking at my friend to see if he'd apologies, but all he did was act like he didn't do it. He started saying "I don't know, it wasn't me" I felt bad for him because he wasn't realizing that he was just lying straight into this kids face. After this happens I Stater talking to him and saying "Dude, you should of asked if he was okay and then apologies, not act like you didn't do it." He then apologies to me and later he went back to the kid and gave him apologies too.

 I think as I get older and face new experiences, topics will become bigger in my life and I'll have to stand for them. Whether its towards family, friends, or coworkers I'll debate them about it. The issue/topic I'm talking about is "Lego is for any age" Ive been building Lego my whole life and continue too, and let me tell you, will never stop. Lego is for everybody and any age group, when I'm an adult I will still be building Lego sets even if my wife thinks I'm a child. Lego is more than a toy, its art. Lego is one of the biggest companies out their and everyone in the world enjoys them.

 This school year I really want to accomplish three main goals. The first one being I would really love to pass all my main core classes with an 85 or above. This would be really nice to accomplish as it would look good on my college application. Id also like to make a great film in my AV class as it would give me a good film to send to a film program that would hopefully except me. Last id love to finish an entire book beginning to end before the end of this first semester, and finish a second one in the second semester.
