3. "My Homies Still" by Lil Wayne

4. “ Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye 

I like this song a lot because it is very catchy. Also It reminds me of some of my old friends that have changed for the worse. Its like I don’t know them anymore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UVNT4wvIGY

5. “I’m different” by Two Chainz

I don’t necessarily like this song. Its just memorable because this is the song that rings in my head whenever I think of booker t Washington high school. They decimated us in the first round of the playoffs for football and I can never forget that game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2QKlmMT8II

6.“One More Time” by Daft Punk

I Love this song. I really like this because it’s techno and it’s just awesome. But also I remember hearing the song when I was really young. And whenever I hear it I can remember that moment in time. Even though I usually cant remember that point in time of my life, for some reason whenever I hear this song I can. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGBhQbmPwH8

Have you ever had the desire to create something of your own, that you could call unique and yours?Well I have.

My Artifact

My artifact is a hand made speaker system. I made it from scratch as a project for IB. It was my personal project. I created it last year over winter break. It was a lot of hard work and I had to use many tools and the expertise of my father to create the speaker system. To me the artifact represents creativity and ingenuity. I created the design my self and I even put together the speakers out of the materials I ordered online.

The artifact has great meaning to me because I was able to spend quality time with my dad on the project. It was one of the only times that I was able to work with my dad on something together and it was very fun to work with him and let him show me how to use different tools to make my speaker system. I kept this artifact because it means a lot to me and it reminds me of the quality time I spent with my dad and the good times we had together, and also I don’t mean to toot my own horn but I made a pretty good speaker system.

My First Speech

I thought that my first speech went well. At first I was a little nervous because I got a really hard topic. But I eased my way through the speech and I was able to produce a 45 second speech on my favorite part of a parade. And I got a decent grade so guess I did fine.
