Wow, everyone. What a year this has been. From the most important election of my lifetime, to attending school throughout a global pandemic, and our entire lives being put online. What’s a better time to reflect than the second-to-last week of school? For starters, I’ve really enjoyed Communications class this year. I had the best […]
Hey, everyone! This is my 100 Word Challenge for this week, and the last required one of the year. I’m not sure if I’ll continue after this, I haven’t thought about it yet, but until then, here’s a story about the picture to the left. It was inspired by a video I watched once, about […]
