Although I haven’t crossed off all the places on my list, I would consider the locations I’ve been to, must-see places.  The first place I’ll talk about is Niagar...

The beauty of childhood is highly underrated. You’re young and don’t know a thing about the world. You constantly mention how you “just wanna be a teenager” but the minute it happens, you want Peter Pan to come and take you to Neverland where the young live forever with no worries. The innocence and naiveté among children truly are wondrous. When you spring into adolescence in a few years...

When I reflect on myself now, I think back to every obstacle I have faced and eventually overcame that was rather harsh for a growing teenager. Ranging from being launched into the terrifying social world of teens to navigating my way through tough familial problems, life definitely wasn’t easy to conquer alone, which left me questioning a lot of my actions.

Being a junior at Athens Drive High School, I have had my fair share of late assignments. Especially during the pandemic, due to my lack of motivation, I almost didn’t turn in any of my work and nearly failed.

My name is Aadriana and I'm going to talk to you about my self improvement journey. Ever since quarantine, I've been feeling a little down and unenergetic. I always thought this was because I missed two years of my life because we were on lockdown, but sometimes I feel like it's something more. I just don't have energy to do certain things, and when I do, my energy runs out quickly. I have bad eating ...
