In our weekly photo blog, one of the weekly challenges asked us to take a photo that tells a story.
This week, we were challenged to tell the story of our friends or families through a photo. This is a photo of my friends when we watched the sunrise together. Since we were unable to have a school-organized “senior sunrise” we decided to have our own.

For me, playing video games has always made me happy. Playing a game for countless of hours in the comfort of my own bed has and will always be something that can easily warm my heart.
For this photo, I took a picture of some of my favorite albums laying against my CD player. This photo is representative of me as listening to music is one of my favorite things to do. My parents gave me this old CD player to allow me to have and listen to physical versions of my favorite music. I have listened to all of the pictured albums for hours on end and they have all helped me to become the…
