 In 2–3 well-developed sentences, reflect on how you spent your Holiday Break. Then, identify four personal you would like to achieve this year and briefly explain why each goal is important to you (Copy and paste your completed response from Writable into your blog).

I spent my holiday break in many different ways with many different people, locations, and activities. I spent time with my family and my boyfriends family the first week especially on Christmas Eve. I spent loads of time with my friends going to different peoples houses, the Botanical Gardens, and to see loads of Christmas lights. The four personal goals I would like to achieve this year is to get my license which is important for my independence, freedom, and control of my life. The three others  are important for my health and they are to become more hydrated, eat healthier, and be more active.

The first goal that I want to achieve this year is to drink more water and be more hydrated. This goal is important because it will improve my overall health, my digestive system, and energy, allowing me to go about my life in a healthier way. To accomplish this goal, I have bought myself a nice water bottle, set reminders on my phone telling me to drink, and have a goal to drink 2-3 liters of water by the end of the day.

The second goal I want to achieve this year is to get to school on time every day. This goal is important because it will improve my attendence and create a better academic light for me in my first period teacher's eyes. To accomplish this goal, I bought myself the loudest alarm clock I could find; I have a goal of under 5 tardies this semester, and I have set up/organizing everything I need for school the night before rather than in the morning. 

The third goal that I want to achieve this year is getting my driver's licence. This goal is important to me because it would give me more freedom, independence, and control of my life/plans. To accomplish this goal I have bought Drivers ED, I have set a goal of completing 20+ mins of Drivers ED a day, and I have set a goal to drive for 1-2 hours each week with my parents. I have a plan to complete this by the time I turn 17 so I have until May 27th. 

The fourth goal I want to achieve this year is becoming more fit and active. This goal is important to me because I want to deflict health issues I may have later in life, along with making me more confident, and healthier. To accomplish this goal, I have a plan to walk to my house from work, school, and lacrosse when possible. I have also been taking my dog on walks and runs so she does not pee or poop in my house rather then just putting her in the backyard. 

The fifth goal I want to achieve this year is to cut my snacking and junk food intake. This goal is important to me because it will decrease the number of health issues in my future, improve my digestive system, and make me overall happier. To accomplish this goal I have made a list of foods that are good for me and convenient that I can eat when I want to snack rather then junk food. I have also made Friday and Saturday my cheat days so that I do not feel like unhealthy food is not allowed rather to just have more moderation with my intake of it. 

Summary:

Today in class we went over the class rules for the new semester and talked about our new years resolutions, and our break. 

Reflection:

Today in class we did a writable assignment regarding our New Years resolutions.

  If you had to describe how you show love using only three objects (for example: a playlist, a hoodie, a late-night snack, a long text message, etc.), what would you choose and why? Explain what each object represents and how it connects to your personality. If I had to describe how I show love using only 3 objects I would choose a  weighted blanket, a curated playlist, and a customized notebook. I would choose a weighted blanket because love to me is a safe harbor and is about creating a secure, calming space where the other person feels protected and grounded, especially after a chaotic day. This connects to my personality because I show affection by reducing stress and providing a calm presence rather than loud declarations. I would choose a playlist because I am good at   understanding a person's inner world, moods, and tastes and this gift shows the efforts and ability I have to do so. Finally, I would choose a notebook because it symbolizes communica...

Write about something that you can't stop thinking about.  One thing that I can not stop thinking about is what I learned about in AP Psychology today. We watched this video about people called "Wild Children" who are people who were raised with little to no human contact/interactions. These children were captured at birth and were striped of their rights to do anything basically. Because they have no knowledge of language and had no one to interact with for the critical learning period of their lives they make little to no noise. The aspect that I think about the most is that I am unable to grasp the idea of how my thought process would look like without words/vocabulary/language. I can not fathom the idea of thinking without words. I am also curious about how they felt after being found and brought into the human world. Overall this is a very interesting topic to me and I have found myself unable to get it off my mind.

  In the spirit of Valentine’s Day week, describe your idea of a perfect day spent with someone you care about (a friend, family member, or significant person in your life). In the spirit of Valentine's Day week, my idea of a perfect day spent with someone I care about is spending the day hanging out with my mom and sisters. I would wake up late come downstairs and eat a late brunch with my mom and then spend the afternoon shopping or watching movies with my sisters. Then we would come home and start getting ready for a nice dinner. My whole family would go to a nice Italian restaurant and then get some dessert on the way back home. After we got home me and the rest of my family would play board games until we got to bed. That is my idea of a perfect day with people I care about. Summary: Today in class we continued planning for our rhetorical analysis essay. Reflection: I learned a lot and feel more prepared after planning.
