affected by our actions, let me apologize for the deficient society we have created for you. It’s come to a point where you lock yourselves inside, entertained by the many tablets, tv’s or phones you posses. I’m sure you are unaware of what the outside world around you looks like. The rhyme “leaves of three, let it be” hasn’t been heard in years, since no one's dared go outside and visit surrounding nature, it’s lost it’s purpose.

When it comes to public spaces, there are certain places that make you feel a lot more secure and comfortable than others. With this in mind, the place I feel the safest and most comfortable at it is my home, due to the fact that once I get home, I can just unwind do what I have to do and enjoy every second of it. What makes me feel so sheltered and snug is not the fact that I have a roof over my head, but it is the fact that my family is present in the same place as I am even if we are not at home

Many people define heroism as someone with powers, or someone who has saved someone, but that is not always the case. Heroes can be simple people that live carefree lives. Heroes don’t have to be these well known people. Heroes help make the world a better place, heroes make brave decisions, and heroes do not make bad decisions or make things worse than they are. I believe heroism is making a brave decision (whether someone realizes it or not) that affects people positively. Additionally, heroism

The trebuchet project was the final project we completed for physics class this year. The trebuchet Payton and I built was most definitely unlike any other project we had every done before, which made it challenging but also fun.

“You are not your job, you're not how much money you have in the bank. You are not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You are not your f***ing khakis. You are all singing, all dancing crap of the world.” -- Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club People are always asking themselves what defines them as a person. How do I express myself?
