Future

This is my sister when she graduated high school! She’s super awesome and did very well in college (and is doing amazing after college!), and I want my future to be as successful as hers.

Food

This is a bowl of produce that we have in our kitchen. During the summer months, it’s usually much more colorful and filled with lots of different bright, juicy fruits. Right now, it’s not so vibrant, but at least we have bananas!

Current Events

This is a poster for a No Kings protest that happened this month. It’s very representative of how the current administration is going and how the American people, including myself, feel about it. No kings!

Musical

This is a photo of my family’s piano. It has decades of history behind it, as it first belonged to my great-great grandfather, who was a composer. I love my family’s musical history, and I love our piano!

Serenity

Though there is nothing particularly serene about clock towers, I felt that the combination of the beautiful, elegant detailing around the clock and the crisp blue sky surrounding it made for an oddly soothing scene.
