=These Are My Animals =



I chose all of these animals for the simplest reason.... they're my favorite animals. I like the platypus because they are a jumble of mixed up such. I like the penguin because they're not only cute, but so calm. And I chose the panther because they're are just so cool. To distort the platypus, I used a method called "cut out" on Photoshop. And for both the penguin and panther, I used "neon glow" on the animals.

=This Is My Picture of Me!!!!!!! = This picture shows that I am relatively calm. I'll be honest, I didn't know this was supposed to show anything about me. So I guess I am someone who can forget how to do assignments correctly, that's what this picture says about me.

=My Top Three = I find all of these things important to me. First thing's first, passing the ACT, it's one of the biggest test in your life. I really want to pass it with a great grade. Second, I need a job to make it through life (of course) and I actually am looking forward to getting a job. Finally, I really need to have fun along the way. I don't think I would enjoy anything I did. There are other things that are important life long goals, but these (to me ) are the most important things to do.
 * Pass ACT.
 * Job.
 * Having fun!!

=Technology Use = I use a computer every day, I use it not only in school, but I also use one at home for homework and just for fun. I would like to learn more about an i-Pod Touch. They're so cool, and they can play all of these fun games, and also listen to music.

=My Skills = One job I'd like to have some day is be an engineer. I Need To Know: To live up to these skills, I'll need to bee patient the most. Building takes a long time, along with math, and even in some cases writing is time consuming. I am pretty descent at all of these, but I'm guessing that the building needs some work. Using Lincoln Logs or Lego is super easy, but using electronics, joints, and wires, is probably different from Lego. I plan on gaining these skills by using the most simple technique that will probably impact the most....practice, practice, practice.
 * Animator
 * Clarinetist
 * Drummer
 * Math
 * Writing
 * Swimmer
 * Math
 * (surprisingly) Writing
 * Building
 * Patience



=Read All About It = My favorite author is Suzanne Collins because she wrote my favorite series, The Hunger Games. I like her not only because she does my favorite series, but because she has a very interesting way of writing that I can enjoy. I haven't really learned any particular thing from her writing, all I know is that I can follow what she says instead of searching for the answer to what she means when she says "x". I HIGHLY recommend "The Hunger Games Trilogy" because almost anyone can read the story, and because of the excitement at every turn!



=Where in the World = media type="googlemap" key="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Tokyo,+Japan&aq=0&sll=35.616558,139.576492&sspn=0.39297,0.617294&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Tokyo,+Japan&z=9&ll=35.689488,139.691706&output=embed" width="425" height="350"

I would Like to go to__ Tokyo, Japan __ mostly because it seems like an interesting place. I've always wanted to leave America, and check out a place that is completely different from where I am now. It will probably be pretty complected, but I have always (not my whole life though) been interested in the Japanese culture. I hope I can someday go to there sometime in my life.

=People Who Make A Difference = Engineers make a huge impact on society by making the things that we most likely use on a regular basis. There are all kinds of engineers, like the biomedical engineers, they create devices that help someone in a medical, or health related way. Civil engineers create devices based on civilians, such as roads, stop signs, and even the sewage systems. There are all kinds of engineers, that all make some kind of impact on the world today. Or in some cases, engineers create the devices that you see in space!
