It's ME

Hi Calvin again well I want to update you on who I am. I am a high school senior age 16 and I attend SEED Public Charter School. Currently I am in the process of being accepted into the POSSE program. The POSSE program is a scholarship that pays for you to go to one of the six top tier colleges. The process sends you through a series of interview each one more rigorous than the last. On the other hand I have created my first video game which really got me into the mechanics of what needs to be considered when making video games. I also spent this past June in Greece, a breathtaking experience that really made me value living here in the U.S. Well that's a brief synopsis of whats big in my life.

Bettering those Around Me

I am currently advocating for a better school system in the SEED Public Charter School. If I can start a shift in education then eventually all schools in D.C will gradually grow. THe U.S nation has a wide variety of schol sytems ranging from the black boards to a pure techno sensation. The states further out west seem to have something that makes their students stand out if we can grab hold of that potential there is no telling to what may happen. The future lies within our kids we must prepare them to lead this country one day.

What I Spend Money On...

Well I like a vast assortment of things all of which i believe represent differeent parts of me. For example i buy video games not only bacause I really enjoy them but because I aspire to be the best video game designer/entreprenuer. I also buy clothes, now I don't really have a particular brand it's what ever catches my eye that I choose to buy. Especially when it comes to shoes I rarely see a good pair of shoes but I do buy them often, I consider getting new shoes at least twice a year to be a must. Aside from that I buy diffrent types of cake batter because I have recently got into the habit of baking and loving. For example my Best Friend Tiera's birthday is coming up in a week and I plan on baking her a cake, I'm even starting to cook dinner for my family on a regular bases. However my mom buys the food and I get to cook whatever I want as long as it's in the budget. Well thats what I spend my money on.
