5. I love high school so much, i want to teach high school English.

6. My senior year is definitely my favorite. I enjoy all of my classes.

15. I hate the dark.

16. I love the night sky though.

17. I love storms when I'm home safe and not alone. and no tornados.

18. I love watching a political movie. (hence the obsessive love of political debates i could easily win by shouting my debate partner down with my intellectual verbiage to show that i am imperious)

19. Sometimes, im told i scare people because i love politics.

20. I've also been told its not healthy for a 17 year old to take such an intense and harsh opinion on the topics.
