My dream job is to be a photographer. I want to be a photographer because the career path lets me capture and immortalize emotions, moments and scenes. I want to have a unique perspective, enabling to decide my work timings and locations.  This is a way to make a living for me because I prefer being active than sitting a cubical all day. This would really encourage me to stay in the present moment and aware of what is happening instead of becoming distracted by the noise and busyness of life. My mom would be proud because she always tells me to enjoy the moments as we capture them with our camera. What is your dream job?

A magician has made me invisible for twenty-four hours. I am excited and scared at the same time! Being invisible for a day is special because it provides a level of not only anonymity,  but secrecy. I can quite literally do anything and even sneak up on others and spy on them. My second reason why I would want to be invisible is because I could  go unnoticed and could be used for harmless pranks or mischievous activities. My third reason is because it could give me a unique perspective on others that I don’t know or perhaps the people that I don’t like either and could probably change my perspective on how I see others. What would you do if you were to be invisible?

I believe nature is the best thing you can witness when you’re outside. I say this because they’re so many things you can look at without getting bored, for example flowers , you can watch them bloom every year and they even have their own scent of fragrant smells . Another reason why nature is the best is because its diverse colors, shapes, and sounds, which stimulate our senses coupled with the calming and peaceful experience of being immersed, a natural environment. And lastly, nature is beautiful because it’s pure and follows its own rhythm without trying to be anything else everything in nature from mountains to rivers has a harmony that’s just there without any effort, its soothing to the mind, body, and soul to look upon beauty.

“ Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, when one only remembers to turn on the light.” To me this means that even when facing your hardest, one can still find happiness by actively choosing to focus on the positive and take action on improving their skills. For example, Im going through a hard test situation until after school, I find happiness in spending time with my family. It can be easy to get consumed by negativity, but we can always find a path towards happiness, just as turning on a light can reveal details in a dark room can instantly illuminate the space around you.

Somebody that I really admire is my mom. My mom is my hero because she cares for me and appreciates me for being her daughter, she would always call me her little sweat angel. Another reason why she is my hero is because even when shes feeling low she always gives her best on trying to make me happy, so in return I want to try my hardest for her so that she can feel proud of me. My third reason why my mom is my hero is because she helps me with my homework even though she doesn’t understand some of it she still tries to get me to explain it to her, also making sacrifices for my well being and is always there for me through thick and thin,  shes like my biggest cheerleader encouraging me to pursue my dreams and providing emotional support during challenging times. Who’s your hero?

In December, I read a book called Diary of a Wimpy Kid Cabin Fever by Jeff Kinney Gregg Hefley has always been in a hurry to grow up, but he is getting older. Gregg suddenly finds himself dealing with the pressure of boy girl parties increase responsibilities and even the awkward changes of getting older where goes through tough the situations like getting blamed for graffiti on school property, losing a doll and getting trapped in his house from a snowstorm, however he tries to overcome the problems and have fun always with his best friend Rowley.
I enjoyed this book because The cartoon style illustration is perfectly compliment as the text adding another layer of humor and breaking the characters alive. The story of being snowed in at home with limited food and entertainment is something many readers can easily pitch themselves experiencing making the situation feel authentic and funny while also incorporating heartwarming, moments and family dynamics presented through Jeff Kinney‘s signature comedy illustration and easy to read style.
Gregg Hefley is my favorite character because he is relatable to readers due to his awkwardness desire to fit in and occasional moments of genuine kindness particularly it was his best friend Rowley  and Jefferson even if he sometimes uses rally for his own benefit. He also provides a humorous perspective on every day struggles of being a middle schooler and I can prove this on page 198 it states, “When you’re used to having electricity, and then all of A sudden it’s taken away you’re basically just one step away from being a wild animal.”
My favorite quote from the book is on page 204, “ I know I need to eat healthier but if you take fast food out of my diet, I’m in big trouble because I’m probably something like 95% chicken nugget.” I like this quote because I think it’s very funny and I can honestly relate that I would want to have fast foods every two weeks.

This year I am going to focus on the word determined. I will be focusing on the word determined because I want to get better results at what I do, I believe that If I have good behavior and better grades than last year, my parents will be proud of me and including my siblings. My second reason of having the word determined for 2025 is because it will help me throughout my life because I’ll get used to it and it enables me to keep focus. My third reason is because if I am determined I will preserve and continue working toward my goals and have success.

If you had been given three wishes, what would you ask for? The first thing I would ask for is knowledge. I would ask for knowledge because I want to be smarter than I already am. I can help the people around me with their homework and I would also want to go to a college for in the future to have a good career. My second wish would be for hospitals to have more medical attention or perhaps open more schools about medicine so that people have better chances of surviving bad diseases. My third wish is for my family to be immortal because I would like  to see them everyday for the rest of my life, they mentally support me and make me keep trying in life and to try new things that I don’t like  and it made me be who I am today. These are my three wishes, what are yours?

Three things I’m thankful for is my family, friends, and nature. 1.  I’m grateful for my family because they help me in any way they can and have patience for me when I don’t understand how to do things especially my mother, my mom would always encourage me in things that I don’t find interesting , she expresses her love to me by giving me notes saying that she loves me. 2. My friends bring me joy and make me laugh all the time, they are the reason why I come to school, and whenever I feel down they always come to the rescue by trying to cheer me up or tell me jokes that are stupid because my humor is weird. 3. Nature is my number one hobby to explore, I like watching the sunset and mostly love the breeze, it makes me feel like part of me is complete. What are three things you’re grateful for?

If I could trade places with a famous person for a day it would be Beyonce, who is a famous singer and plays concerts for people around the world. I would want to be Beyonce because of her exceptional vocal ability, diverse musical style, powerful stage presence, strong messages of empowerment, and significant cultural impact, making her one of the most influential artists of her generation, particularly for women and black communities, she consistently pushes boundaries and evolves her artistry  throughout her career, offering a wide range of music to connect with different listeners. Beyonce  has strong lungs although she had to go through a lot like her voice is a result of years of hard work and training. As a teenager, she was forced to run three and a half miles while singing, which helped develop her lung capacity.
