Q: What do you hope to learn/do with this class, Journalism?
A: I hope that we get to talk about important topics and our views on them because I think nowadays people are too scared to talk about certain topics. It would be interesting to hear peoples’ opinions on gender and race. Learning how to talk or write about controversial topics and be comfortable about it is an important skill.

Q: Are you satisfied with what you are doing in your life right now? Explain.
A: No, but I am learning how to be ok with that. I’m not satisfied because I have wasted a bunch of time not taking school seriously. I need to keep moving forward and learn that I can’t turn back time. I personally believe that no one can truly be satisfied with life. We shouldn’t be caught up in our past, even though it is difficult, and I am still struggling with this.

Q: If you could change one thing (anything, maybe this class if it's easier) what would it be?
A: If I could change one thing, I would have the universe from Avatar: The Last Airbender as our world. I would have people have elements based on their zodiac element, like in the show. I would do this because I think it would make life interesting and give it a little spice.

Q: Are you happy with what you’re doing with your school life? Present and future?
A: No because at this point in my life I am just doing the work that I am supposed to do. School is about getting passing grades rather than learning right now. This relates to the future as well. I often regret slacking off in the past and wish I had worked harder. There are a lot of expectations that can make you feel guilty or insecure about how you are doing in school.
