Three years later, my brother who is now a freshman, just got a ride to our school’s football game without asking, then when the game ended at 9, he got a ride to Cane’s and was there for over TWO hours. I asked him when he’d be home and he said he doesn’t know bc they’re going to Applebee’s.

Hey guys!! I’m starting my journey to being a better person in all aspects of life. I’m following along with the guided journal “This is What Matters” by Perpetua Neo. So far it has really really helped. The page above is a graphic I made to hold myself accountable. If you’d like to hear more about my story or share your own, please let me know!!!

I made my first animation this week!!!

-video autobiographies for those who have a story to tell but are unsure of where to start or are unable to write one themselves. I would like to interview the elderly, those that have been through much, and those who are nearing the end too soon

-travel videos that show people parts of the world that they would otherwise be unable to see. My target audience is people who long for travel but are still undecided, too young, too old, disabled, or just enjoy travel content

I’m making small steps towards these now by

-currently in the process of interviewing my 94 year old great grandma about her life, from her birth in 1930 to now, in 2024.

-making “tourist” videos around my hometown to show the parts of it that there are to love

Hi..this is not what I wanted my first post to be but it needs to be said. I am a 17 year old resident of Springfield and the current national news is bringing a lot of new attention to my hometown, and creating dangerous situations. Yes it should be talked about, but threats do not help us.

Every day, my schools (I attend a high school and a college) send out messages letting students know that they are aware of threats being made against the schools nearby, and are working with police to debunk the claims. There have been b!mb and sh00ting threats.

Two weeks ago, I went out everywhere by myself, it’s never been something I’ve been afraid of. Now, I am scared. Two weeks ago, I would walk past a group of people who spoke a different language than me and didn’t mind them, they didn’t scare me. Now, I don’t even leave my car alone. Not because of them, but because of the threats made against them. People have been peeing in bottles and throwing them at Haitians in my city, among other hateful acts.

Don’t get me wrong, Springfield was not a 5 star city before the national attention. But I felt safe and it was home. Now, I am scared. I am scared because someone that is hateful enough to make threats against schools with CHILDREN in them, Haitain or not, CHILDREN, who have no choice but to follow their parents directions, is also hateful enough not to care who gets in their way to achieve their threats.
