My Winter Break

1. Tell me what is the one thing that happened on your holiday that you will remember? It can be a trip, a family visit, a present, something fun.
One thing I will remember from my holiday break will be getting an Xbox One for christmas.

One of my resolutions for the new year is to improve in skating and get good grades in my classes.

3. What are you looking forward to in 2016?

I'm looking forward to this summer because I will be going to Mexico.

Most importants of 2015

1. What was the best song of 2015?
The best song of 2015 is certainly "Hello" by Adele. Having only been out for around a month and already being six on the charts means a lot in the music industry. I personally am not a big fan of Adele but she is certainly not a bad singer. The song was ok, just not my type of music.


2. What was the best movie of 2015?
The best movie of 2015 was Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The series has been out since 77 and has always been a favorite to lots of people. I am a huge fan of Star Wars and loved the new movie. It was nice to see some of the same actors as the older movies. Spoilers were nearly impossible to avoid on social media and I was sad when I found out what happened. 

3. What was the most important news story of the year?
The most important news story of 2015 is Gay rights being legalized in the US. I had a relative who was homosexual and he would be glad to hear that same sex marriage was now legal. It was a very important step in america making the country more free.

4. Who was the most important person of 2015?
The most important person of 2015 would be Donald Trump. Finding someone who doesn't know his name would really be a challenge. Most would consider him running for president as a joke, as do I. Famous for saying very stupid and offensive things i can't imagine what would happen if he was actually elected as president of the US.
5. What was the biggest sports OR entertainment story OR sports/entertainment person of 2016?
The most important sports event of 2015 was the Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather fight. Although I never watch boxing this fight was important for those who do. Many complained that the fight was no good and they were "hugging" the whole time but I can't say anything because I know nothing about boxing.

Favorite 2015 Photos


This is one of my favorite photos of the year because you never see icebergs in Texas and they are very interesting. It makes an amazing photograph.


I picked this photo as one of my favorite because I find space one of the most interesting things to photograph because there is always new places being discovered. 



This is one of my favorite photos because its funny. It reminds me of one of the avengers movies where Captain America is jumping out of the plane.
