What are you doing for Spring Break?

For the first five days of spring break, I'm going to be in Cozumel, Mexico! We're renting a house with two other families and I'm so excited to go. We get back on St. Patrick's Day and our family friends from Texas are going to visit us for the remainder of spring break. I haven't seen them since the beginning of the school year because they live in Austin, Texas. I'm going to be doing some homework assignments too, but I'm not focusing on that right now.

Who do you look up to in your life? Why do you look up to them? Tell me about them and some of their characteristics that you admire.

I guarantee that anyone who is about to read this is going to think that I'm very stupid. But I look up to Nicki Minaj. Everyone sees her as this inappropriate, provocative woman who sounds like she doesn't have a single clue about what she's talking about. Nicki is a big supporter of feminism and makes sure her music represents that. Critics throw everything against her, saying that her music is too sexual for a woman. But men say the exact same things in their work toward women. She's creating this new world for women where we can say and feel however we want without men telling us that we're too pure or innocent to let those words slip past our lips. Nicki still believes in making sure that women remain educated and not to let stereotypes stop them from going to medical or law school because that's a male-dominated work area. Nicki Minaj deserves so much more credit than she receives.

This weekend my volleyball team got first place in our tournament! We were so excited to win the championship game, especially after the referees made some bad calls on our team. I know we deserved the win and it was worth being in that gym for twelve, straight hours.

If you were the Principal for a week at BVHS, what would that look like? What changes would you make? Why?

I would be playing some really bomb music during passing period that isn't from twenty years ago, get Papa John’s instead of Pizza Hut pizza to serve at our school, and install more outlets for kids to charge their phones from. I know these are all things I want to happen to the school so I'm sure other kids in the school are wanting the same things as me. I would probably need to make some adult decisions too so I would try to introduce new teaching ways to the staff.

This weekend will was probably one of the busiest ones I'll have this year. On Friday, my dad had his last day of work. He had worked at 41 Action News for eighteen years and had to miss important events in our family for his job. We're glad we'll be able to see more of him now. On Saturday morning I went to the World War One museum with my two friends, Brooke and Karen. We took some really cool pictures from the roof of the museum and walked to Crown Center once we had went through the entire place. I went to a birthday party on Saturday night and went night sledding. I accidentally fell into a ditch; luckily I didn't hurt myself. My weekend was pretty eventful and it's one I won't forget for a while.

My Friday night was probably the best time I've experienced in a long time. I went to Jose Peppers with Charlotte, Brooke, Jillian, and Mallory. At one point the waiter was recommending the fajitas, but I told him I don't like fajitas. For some reason, Charlotte found this hilarious and spit her mouthful of water across the table at Brooke. We were in stitches for a couple minutes after that! My Saturday was nothing compared to Friday night. I had to babysit a bunch of kids for my neighbor's work party and it was funny to see all these kid's antics.

Since I plan on being a psychologist when I'm out of college, I should probably being taking classes that specialize in human interactions, reading body language, and perfecting techniques that help people be able to trust me. I wouldn't need to take any math classes and I might need some science classes since some mental disorders can by caused by chemicals in the brain. Anatomy and Physiology and Chemistry could be possible courses for me in college. I'll be needing to take Clinical Psychology, Psychology, Sociology, and Statistics. When I'm in college, I can focus on taking courses that are important to my career choice and not worry about classes that don't apply to my major.
