Even when I have a lot going on, I try to find small ways to enjoy my day. In the morning, I start with a quiet cup of coffee , which helps me feel calm before things get busy. During the day, I take short breaks to stretch, go outside, or just take a few deep breaths. These quick moments help me feel more relaxed and focused. In the evening, I like to unwind by reading a book, journaling, or watching a show I enjoy. Even on the busiest days, these small habits help me find peace and enjoy little moments.

One of the most beautiful creations in the world is the ocean. Its blue, with endless waves stretching to the sides, reminds us how big and mysterious the world really is. The way sunlight glares on the water, the rhythm of the tides, and the colorful life beneath the surface all show nature’s power and grace. It’s inspiring because it holds both peace and strength, and connects every corner of the Earth.

The sense I value the most is sight. Sight is the most valuable to me because without sight I wouldn't be moving how I move as in walking, seeing, and experiencing the world. It holds a great importance to me because it is a lot easier seeing things than not.

 The holiday I look forward to the most is Christmas. Why Christmas is my favorite is because it brings my family closer and we all come together to celebrate a special holiday, what I usually do during Christmas is help my mom cook breakfast, we all share a reason why we celebrate Christmas, and finally open presents after we're done with that and we do that in the morning we chill for the rest of the day at home. 

 My writing journals story would most likely agree and decide I'm a reasonable person. This being said my journal would feel interesting before I even start wring on it then suddenly become even more interested after I finish saying part of a story, the expression would most likely be shocked, confused, and laughter. 

I remember reading those Babysitter's Club books as a kid, and there was this one part kids stuck with-you know, the first one, Kristy's Great Idea. Kristy actually starts a babysitting club with her friends, and the storyline is fun and light hearted, but then there's this whole other layer that just made me feel something more serious at the time. It really caught my attention about how Kristy's family especially her mother were the main characters in this story. Kristy is trying to be the responsible one with the family when it comes to doing something for the family and placing importance on the mother-daughter relationship while still trying to preserve her friendship. There is that point in the book where Kristy realizes how vital her role is in the family but also how much she needs to fight to maintain her independence. It was very relatable because it is referring to that balancing act which we all face takeng care of others and taking care of ourself at the sa...

 Over spring break I went to Panama City Beach in Florida. I went with my friend and my family and we had a blast. Me and my friend was with each other the whole time and was out AM to AM after we would be on the beach we had many new friends and went to where they were staying at and chilled until there was a party. That week was so tiring when I finally came back all I did was sleep. 

A private island that’s half lush jungle, half white-sand beach somewhere in the South Pacific, but with little treehouses built into the cliffs and glass bottom over the water.A mix of friends, maybe some cool artists to vibe with, and a personal chef who can make fire meals from any culture (plus snacks 24/7).

 A moment in life that felt like the beginning of a powerful story was when I moved back to Atlanta after living in Seattle for a couple of years. I'm born and raised in Atlanta but my mom decided to move to Seattle and start a new life after making new friends there my mom wanted to come back. When we came back I was upset and worried about what was to come but staying here not only did I reunite with my family but also my childhood friends. 

 Something I've outgrown but still miss is my old friend group. My first year of high school I had a group of friends it was a bunch of us and we would always have the most fun together, weather we're in class or at a game, or even getting food after school we made so much memories together that I wouldn't trade anything for. We grew apart when I moved back to Atlanta although I was sad I realized it was for the best because they were a distracted towards my path that I didn't need in my life. They taught me so many things and helped me in ways no one ever could and I'll forever be grateful for them. 

Writing things down in my own words helps me remember them better. Lastly, I make sure to get enough sleep, eat healthy snacks, and take breaks. A little bit of studying every day is much better than cramming at the last minute! I study with friends to quiz each other. I also break my study time into short sessions so I don’t get too tired.

I usually have a lot of thoughts, but I struggle to put them in the right order. This can make my writing confusing. To fix this I can make an outline before I start writing. An outline helps me list my main points and put them in a good order. I can also use transition words like “first,” “next,” and “finally” to make my ideas flow better. The hardest part of writing an informational essay for me is organizing my ideas.

Some believe NDEs are spiritual. They think these experiences show that the soul leaves the body and enters another realm. Others believe they are simply the brain reacting to trauma, releasing chemicals that create visions and feelings of peace. Scientists have studied NDEs and found that lack of oxygen, brain activity, or even dreams could explain them. I think NDEs could be a mix of both. Science may explain some parts, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t meaningful. Maybe they reveal something about human consciousness we don’t fully understand yet. Whether they prove life after death or not, NDEs are powerful and often change the way people live, making them appreciate life more.

In school, having a strong vocabulary helps you read and understand books, write essays, and explain your ideas clearly. It also makes it easier to learn new subjects because you can understand tricky words and concepts. Teachers and classmates will also understand you better when you speak or write. Knowing the right words to use can help you communicate better every day and do well in school. When you use clear and precise words, people understand you more easily, and you can express your thoughts without confusion. This is helpful in conversations, school projects, and even texting or writing emails.

I don’t always check where products come from when I shop, but sometimes I notice. If something is made in the U.S., I think it’s good because it helps workers here. I might be willing to pay a little more for it, but it depends on the price. If something is too expensive, I would probably choose the cheaper option. But if I know buying American made products helps people get jobs, I would try to support it when I can.

Failing my first major math test in high school was a tough experience, but it ended up helping me grow. I had not studied enough and assumed I understood the work, but my low grade said otherwise. At first, I felt disappointed, but I realized I needed to change my study habits. I started asking more questions in class, practicing problems daily, and seeking help when needed. The next test, I did much better. That failure taught me the importance of hard work and preparation, which has helped me in many areas of life.

 Someone who has already achieved a similar dream would be my aunt. Some lessons I've learned from their journey are keep on going even if I feel like giving up, setting high standards for myself, and not letting no one get in the way of what you want to do in life. My aunt because a radiologist and came so far to achieve that dream of hers. 

 A word from vocabulary lesson 12 where I encountered was the word malapropism. Malapropism in my own definition means the unintentional misuse of a word by confusing it with a similar sounding one, often resulting in a humorous or statement.

 I prefer daylight savings because in summer usually when it gets too dark my mom tells me to come while hanging out with friends. Since daylight savings get dark at a later time I have more time to enjoy with my friends. The only downfall would be my sleep schedule would be a little off but other than that I love when it's 8 and the sun is still out.

Adding yogurt to it has to be another favorite is spicy and a little bit chewy but has amazing flavor to it.
