Building My Future - A Survival Guide

Welcome back to my blog! This post is for the second Action Project of the Humanities class, Endurance. In this unit, Apothesis, we started to think about our futures and contemplate where we would go from here. As the end of the school year nears the end, everyone is preparing to step into the next chapter of their life. We continued to look at how other influential figures have endured and their journeys over their lives. We also examined the difference between endurance by force and choice and the skills required in each situation after a Field Experience at Bender's Martial Arts. While we were there, we engaged in a fitness boot camp that tested our physical and mental limits. For this Action Project, we were tasked with creating a survival guide that could serve as a map for our futures. The survival guide focuses on our dream or mission and what we will need to fulfill that mission as we grow up. I hope you enjoy reading about my plan for the future.




I hope you enjoyed reading my survival guide. Initially, I was reluctant to work on this AP since I do not enjoy talking about myself, so I found it challenging to get started. Eventually, I warmed up to the project and produced what you had just read. I enjoyed designing each page and working to make the guide fit my mission. It is essential to have a dream to work toward, and if you plan to make the dream possible, you'll be more inclined to stick to it. The work I want to do as a civil engineer to help communities is important to me, and volunteering my skills in places where people need it is even more important. I hope to reach my goals and apply what I have learned to benefit communities worldwide. Thank you for reading.

Snapshots of Memories

For Final Presentations this term I am presenting the GCE Minecraft server. The GCE Minecraft server is a multiplayer world on Minecraft where me and a fellow freshman have built GCE. Since we were not able to conclude our school year at GCE and it being the last year at the current location, we decided to make a replica in Minecraft. During the terms pre-apocalypse a few GCE students took interest in creating multiplayer Minecraft worlds like surviving as a group to beat the game and even building a massive city. As we moved through the weeks after GCE closed its doors the students continued to play and collaborate with each other. One of these students came up with the idea of building GCE. I agreed to do it because I have a passion for Minecraft and have become an architect on it just like the creators that I take inspiration from. When there is something you enjoy, do more of it. So, in the mindset of the Final Presentations for this term and having a little bit of fun we sta...

Spilling Into Something Else

Welcome back to my blog! This post is for the first Action Project of the Humanities class, Equality. In this first unit, we have learned about equality and how to reach an egalitarian society. We also dove into intersectionality, sociology, and social stratification. We started reading There There  by Tommy Orange, a novel following the stories of Native American characters in Oakland grappling with a complex and painful history and identity. With the idea of creating zines for our Action Project, we had multiple Field Experiences that gave us a chance to observe and study all kinds of zines. These FEs include looking at the zine collection in the Joseph Regenstein Library at the University of Chicago, Co-Prosperity artist space and gallery to investigate underground and independent media, and Howling Pages Comics, where the owner promotes zines created by young people and small press or independent comics. This Action Project asks us to choose a historical event that exemplifies...
