What is the most important aspect of your identiy? Tell what it is and why.

 My most important aspect of my identity i think is my humor. A lot of not only people my age , but adults would agree that I'm funny and always expect a joke from out of me. I think if someone were to have five seconds to describe me in three words funny would definitely be in that list. Ive always had a goofy personality from when i was younger and it never seem to have left. 

How would you feel if your privacy was invaded online or on your phone? Do you think privacy is a basic civil liberty?

 I would feel violated and uncomfortable. I do think privacy is a basic civil property but to an extent. I think if what a person is doing on their phone isn't truly harming anyone it shouldn't be invaded. When its a situation of a crime or bullying i think it should definitely be looked in too

If you had to write a poem about your life RIGHT NOW, what would it be about? Explain your answer in at least 4 to 5 sentences.

 If i had to write a poem about myself right now it would be about my decision on if i want to have my senior year here at lakeside or at druid hills. I deserve to have a good senior year and e happy and i honestly dont think I'm going to have that at lakeside. Though I've been here all three years and it makes sense to just finish it out, I've also seen these same faces since elementary school and want a change.  Lakeside is also becoming worse and worse day by day and i want to enjoy my last year of high school. I also strongly feel that lakeside is getting further away from preparing students for college and i dont need that my senior year. Decisions, Decisions.

Describe a time when you had to speak in front of an audience. What were your fears? How did you handle them? What advice would you give to someone struggling with stage fright?

 I had to talk in front of an audience for a project in world history. I didn’t want to mess up or look at the screen to much because it was a finale and presentation was also being graded. the night before i studied my presentation. Before presenting i looked to see what others are doing to see what i should and shouldn't do for myself. I took a deep breath and presented. Advice i would say is not to overthink it and just do it.
