September 11 changed many aspects of American life, even though your generation was born afterward. Think about a major event that has happened during your own lifetime, such as the COVID-19 pandemic or another event that affected your community or the country. How do you think your experience with that event helps you understand what it might have been like for Americans to experience the uncertainty and change following 9/11? Explain the connection.

 My experience with Covid wasn't too bad actually, but going remote was hard to get accustomed to. Everyone was not sure on what would happen next, and living a day by day life was the way to go. Finally it got better and we were able to do normal things again like go to school, and hang out with friends. Americans after 9/11 were dealing with the same thing as they didn't know what was going to happen the next day. They knew they needed to strengthen security so it wouldn't happen again.

Today in class we took the test about the story.

In “Her Sweet Weight on My Heart a Night” by Emily Dickinson, the speaker describes the emotional weight another person can have on us. Think about someone who has left a lasting impact on your life. In what ways do you still carry that person with you?

 I still use the same practices that I did when this person was still here. My old PE and fitness trained had moved to NY and Ive known him most of my life and he gave me the base of my fitness journey. I still follow his practices and advice today. I follow the lifts I should do, and tips he gives me. I will always remember him for what he did for me. Today in class we finished up the heart artistic drawings and reflection questions.

Imagine someone could learn about you only by looking through your trash can. What three items might they find in your trash today, and what would each item reveal about your personality, habits, interests, or life right now?

Three things someone might find in my trash today are a gatorade , a crumpled school worksheet, and a protein bar wrapper . The sports drink bottle would show that I am active and spend a lot of time playing sports or working out. The school worksheet would reveal that school is a big part of my life right now and that I am focused on keeping up with my classes and preparing for college. The protein bar wrapper would show that I am usually busy and like quick snacks, especially when I am going between school, the gym, and other activities. Today in class we finished up the project planning sheet and added all 10 song titles and artists to it.

What is the most creative thing you have ever made? Share what it was and explain why it stands out as your best work.

 The most creative thing I have ever made was an abstract art piece that I made last year. It included oil pastel, watercolor, and a collage and I spent close to a month working on it. It has a lot of creative and abstract components so that it stands out. It was my best work because it was an original idea by me and I put a lot of dedication into it. It turned out nice, and is now hung up in my room to remember.  Today in class we just kept working on our creative poster on origin myths.
