Amy

Grange Middle School

I'm an abstract thinker. I like to think of random things and let my mind go places. I've noticed that I usually make up stories and/or fake scenarios in my head unconsciously. One of my other interests are taking care of children. I've always wanted to imagine children as a big part of my future. With these two traits, I have come up with the idea of being a child caretaker, while also having a side job of writing novels or children's books.

Frida

Oceanside High School

I have always been friendly, helpful, patient, cooperative, responsible, understanding, and kind since I was little. I can plan and supervise activities and cooperate well with others because I am a responsible and friendly person. I like to help people with problems, work with young people, and serve others, because I wished someone would've done something like this for me when I was younger. I also like to use my hands, build things, tinker with machines/vehicles, because my dad and my brother do that a lot and I aspire to be like them sometimes. In my career I hope to help people, like for example: help build sustainable communities , clean and reduce waste in communities.

King Ren

West High School

I like to think critically and explore ambiguous ideas. I am well organized, independent, and observant. I can plan and supervise an activity, cooperate well with others, and use scientific tools. I like to do volunteer work and explore a variety of ideas. My hobbies are growing plants and flowers, visiting art museums, and travelling. Being a microbiologist not only caters to my interests, but my future studies could help make the environment and people more healthy.

The things that I know about myself

deer valley high

I am creative, imaginative, idealistic. As a person who applies for those things, I like to draw, read cartoons, take photos, do makeup, and I am easily able to lead a group. But there are parts of me that also like to play volleyball, sing, dance, be on social media, design for anything, and helping others. I also like to work independently, but I would like to be a teacher teaching art at a high school. Or help others like a counselor who helps children who have family issues or mental health.

Ariol

I am creative and I love making other peoples ideas reality. I love to draw and sketch out ideas that me or other people had in mind. I like to develop fictional characters, give them backstories, and sometimes even write stories including the characters. I want to use my skills to illustrate my own, and other peoples stories and make comics. These comics can teach you a lesson about the world and teach you how you can help people and the world.

When I grow up I aspire to be a content creator and all those aspects it entails. From graphic design to designing clothes I hope to be able to utilize all my creativity to my fullest potential. I am precise and work well with others but enjoy working alone, I enjoy singing, writing, creating graphics, and being artistic as a whole. I hope as I am using my resources I can serve others and help them discover their purpose & potential that is inside of them.

rita

Arroyo High School

I believe I am a cooperative, friendly, practical yet impulsive person that wants to see a positive change in the world towards having healthy people in better communities. I'm willing to do this with my skills in helping and working well with others, using computers well, organizing, and following orders. Some of my hobbies that tie into what I am good at are playing computer games and writing. Others I have are having a small business and just helping others in general. I would be best at helping communities in the technical sort of way; with set directions for me to do in order to help.

McCheezy

Sequim High School

I am curious, broad minded and inquisitive. I am also agreeable, talkative, and sometimes impulsive. I can often times convince people do things my way. I enjoy reading fiction and creatively expressing myself. I enjoy doing things like playing all kinds of games (video games, board games, sports, ect.), visiting museums, and researching the topics of astronomy and geology. I've always enjoyed the idea of becoming a geologist or astronomer. I want to help people in some way, whether it's helping to decline the pollution of the environment or figuring out a cleaner way of disposing waste. I want to become a geologist, I want to find ways to find new uses for natural resources, study how natural disasters effect people and the environment. Geologists study the natural environment, natural resources, and natural hazards like earthquakes and volcanoes. Being a Geologist helps society because geologists help deal with searching for natural resources like precious metals and petroleum, they also help by finding ways to lessen the damage of natural disasters.

Jasmine

Sequim High School

Ever since I was little I have been an independent child and now woman. Also, I am very successful and hardworking when I put my mind to something. This has now helped me at 17 years old and a junior to help me get back on track and figure out what I want to do when I graduate. Some of my favorite things are Helping others and be challenged. Which should help me become a nurse which not only did the test say I would be good at but I've wanted to be one for a while. I know that it will be hard work but I will put my understanding of math and science to help me become a successful nurse.

I like making decisions that affect others, I would like to be elected to office one day, and I would like to start my own business one day. Things I enjoy are leading, reading, meeting and conferences, writing stories and discussing politics. I've always wanted to become a lawyer since I was little I wanted a violence free world and I thought that if I was a lawyer I could make that dream come true. I know now that one person cannot change the world alone. But I can help. I want to be a child advocacy attorney because children have voices too. We as children are always overlooked. But I want to change that. I am a an independent, educated , African American young woman. I will grow up to be a child advocacy attorney and I will change the world.

vickie

arroyo high school

I am athletic and helpful to my peers, have confidence in myself and very independent. I am observant and once you get to know me I am very talkative and outgoing. I am very loving and if you hurt me or the ones I love sometimes I won't forgive you. I can lead a group mostly during hard times and I can give encouraging talks to help uplift my peers and inspire them to do better. I find myself doing this a lot during soccer in a time where we are losing or not performing well. I want to help people with their problems mostly when working in the same group to reach a goal. I love to play team sports and be challenged a lot because I like to push myself to do more than what I think I can do. My interests are playing sports, meeting new friends and attending sporting events. I love being with my loved ones and spending time with my friends because they make me happy. I want to become a pro soccer player when I grow up and that could help inspire little girls that they can do whatever they put their mind to and I want to try and be that person for them.

Tina

Winters High

I am very sympathetic when helping out the environment and also reducing the use of fossil fuels. My understanding of how our everyday lives are affecting the environment and increasing the rapid expansion of global warming affecting the planet at an earlier rate concerns me. On a daily basis when I am at home I am writing notes and speeches on how we are affecting our planet in a negative away. My biggest desire is to speak my mind and talk about these issues to the world. One of the struggles that I am going to have to face is that people might not believe what I see so that means that I am going to have to be persuasive and be really expressive about what I have to say. It is better to make a difference because it is never too late. This is why I am willing to strive to reach my goal, as either an Environmental Reporter or a Climate Changle Analysts.

Delaney

Oceanside High School

Our generation is facing an unprecedented problem. One that our parents and grandparents have never had to overcome. Us young people are being forced to confront the results of our actions on an environmental level. As one of our Earth's many successors, I believe that the responsibility in ensuring our planet can prosper once more falls on all of our shoulders. As someone who bears part of that responsibility, I am determined to do what I can to make a difference for the better. I am a straightforward and independent person, but I also find team and group work very rewarding, and love combining the ideas of different individuals. I also like to be challenged and work towards new objectives, using my constantly evolving knowledge and experience to tackle problems head-on . My goal is to combine my natural affinity for science with my passion for sustainability, in order to find a career where I will make a positive impact on the world.

MJG

Deer Valley Highschool

Ever since I was young I was always challenged with the standard of beauty since I was a large asian girl which is not at all the standard so I think self confidence and love the things ive developed after 17 years really helps with the fact that I am outgoing and very extroverted. When I was about 7 years old I learned about reusable energy and its stuck with me till this day. I have always been someone who was interested in politics and social affairs, when I was 9 I wanted to be a human rights activist so its still my dream to be an advocater of something greater than myself. Im very worried about how money is being used in our current society because we truly could fix most of the enviormental problems.

Yohelia Gonzalez

Carver E&S

I like to think. Thinking is a great way to sort things out, and if you spend enough time doing it you come up with pretty creative ideas to connect your interest and your planet. I'm a solid and quick learner. My interests are engineering and laboratory experiments. I aim to own my own technology company, very Tony Stark like, and make world changing technology. With world changing technology comes world saving technology. So maybe develop some kind of technology that will benefit out planet.
