Recently I have been learning/ teaching myself how to draw faces. I have always wanted to be able to draw a realistic-looking face, so I decided that I would teach myself how to do that. At first, I started off trying to draw a whole face, with all of the body parts on a face, but I then realized it might be easier to first learn how to draw the facial feature separately. I went online to look up a few steps for how to get the basic shapes down, then work on shading and making it look more realistic. I have currently worked on lips, eyes, and nose. I think I have done pretty well so far at drawing each of the facial body parts. Learning how to draw these body parts has been quite challenging, especially since I have to do the research for drawing them by myself. However, I think I have got most of the basic steps and I am good at drawing the outlines for the features. It is easier for me to dray the body parts when I am looking at someone else's drawing, because I am pretty good and replicating what I see. I definitely need to work on shading, especially since that is the part that determines whether something looks realistic or not. Even though this is challenging, I am excited to keep growing and becoming better at drawing faces.

Yesterday, my high school had our Lunar New Year celebration. For the past three years, I have been organizing the celebrations. This year, the teacher who supervises my planning wanted to have our celebration with the middle school, so we can get more students involved. I thought this was a great idea, but I was at first worried about how we would accommodate a lot more people in our activities, as we would be going from about 110 people to 180. This meant that I had to purchase a lot more materials for each activity so that all students and faculty could get participate. We also wanted to make sure we all were staying together and really integrating middle school and high school. For Lunar New Year, we always provide lunch, so I thought it would be good to serve food in the middle school, then require that everyone eats in the high school or on the quad. This way, we were all staying together instead of separating into our building. I think that this worked well to keep us all togeth...

       As part of my school's Odyssey Week, we spend the day at Brazos Bend State Park. While we were there the school held a cooking competition, in which we were all split into groups of about six to nine people. At the beginning of the day, we got into our groups and worked together to figure out the meal we would be making. Since there were a lot of us, I had to make sure that I was actively listening to everyone's opinions and dietary restrictions. Listening is a very important skill for group work and I think that I was able to use that skill well when trying to figure out our meal plan. We all agreed on making chicken kabobs, salad, and smores. I and another person from my group then went to the store to buy all of the items we would need for our meal. Going to the store with another person was very beneficial because we were able to split up the work or calculating the prices and finding items, which made the whole shopping process go a lot quicker. I was als...

This past Saturday my school had our winter dance. I am one of the co-presidents of the fun committee, which is in charge of planning school events. For the dance, we went with a winter theme so we used decorations such as snowflakes and white trees. The dance was being held in my high school's west commons, which is a communal workspace, so we could not decorate until the day before. So on the Friday before the dance, I made a sketch of the entire space to start planning where all of the decorations would go and to be a guide to the people helping set up. I was really proud of this sketch because I am not the most confident in my drawing abilities, but I think it was very clear. I included the west commons and all of the classrooms and offices attached to it. After school ended the members of the fun committee and I started to decorate the west commons. We put up some of the easier things like the snowflakes on the walls and windows, the fake snow, trees, tablecloths, and silver b...
