My Merrin Memories

In camp the best highlights were late night chats in the bunk. Our bunk or the bunk next to us snuck in k like chocolate bars and chocolate cookies. I tried to get as many as possible. I got like 3 cookies and 3 chocolate bars filled with nutella.

Year 8 camp I liked archery tag but the game had a lot of cheaters and people hogging the arrows but we couldn't shoot them because it was a safe zone.

I liked most of the food there but most times I just stayed in my bunk and for some activities I just skipped because it was boring and I had done them before.

My Heroes

My brother because he has always been there for me. Like when people were being mean he stood up for me and when ever I need help he’ll help me

What are my favorite theme songs or favorite songs?

Drip Too Hard-I like the song I found randomly.

Superman(Eminem) I've known the song for years. I really like Eminem as well.

Hotel california (The Eagles) - A song me and my dad used to listen to.

Pride is the devil (J.cole) this is another song me and my dad listened to.

Explain my ideal self in 5, 10, 50 years time. Considering career, family, friends, location…

In 5 years I'll be 18 when that happens. I at least want a job as a car mechanic that I have been at for 1 or 2 years at.

In 10 years I'll be 23 and hope to have a well paying full time job as a highly skilled mechanic .

In 50 years I'll be 63 and hope to have a well paying job somewhere.

My Favorite Quote

The quote is“There's an old saying in Tennessee. I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee that says, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me you can't get fooled again-george bush I like this one because it's funny how he worded it and because it's slightly different from the saying from the song “Pride is the Devil”.





How would I like to be remembered at Merrin School?

I don't mind if people remember me. I do hope my friends remember me so when they go to high school I hope Brooklyn remembers me the most
