Happy Easter!

Today is Easter. Obviously. And this is how my Easter has been so far. When I woke up, I did the traditional family Easter egg hunt. Then I watched a lot of videos to entertain myself (including a Ted Talk video about the future and augmented reality headsets, while eating some delicious chocolate. And when I say some, I mean some. In my family, most of the big celebrational candies we get on holidays like Halloween or Easter aren't eaten until days later. Anyways, that was pretty much my day up until a few minutes ago. See, I just finished decorating Easter eggs, another common family tradition. Here is a picture.

The best looking eggs are the ones my Mom made. The eggs I made are the three on the left, if you cut the image in half. Well, if you did that, my blue egg would have been cut in almost-half. That blue egg is the egg I decorated with a semi-classic style. The top-most egg, with the weird design, was drawn to look like it was a hovercar egg. I was originally trying to turn it into a blimp, but I made a few drawing mistakes, since I am not good at drawing neatly (due to my slightly shaky hands), and I covered the original design with the hovercar design. The yellow egg I made has "Egg Co" written on the side that you can't see, and the side you can see is supposed to be the logo of the made up "Egg Co", with the words "Only the best" written under it. Now I am about to dig into Easter dinner. Yum! And if any of my teachers are reading this, see you tomorrow.

Passion Is A Roaring Flame

All my life up until this year, I have tried different styles, different ways of living my life, different goals, to find what was right for me. But none of those styles or goals ever stuck for long. Why? Because they didn’t have passion behind them. And passion is what drives us to do what we do best. And to those who do big, great things, passion is a roaring flame that drives them to do great things. And that roaring passion takes anything in it’s way, and turns it into even more fuel. This year, I have found a goal, and a lifestyle built around it, that I am sure will stay with me until the day I die. My goal is to change the world, and not to a small scale. I want to make a difference, and a big one, and change the world on a worldwide scale. And the roaring flame of my passion can’t be put out by even the biggest of challenges, for with every challenge, and every day, it strengthens, and grows. And I believe that almost everyone out there has an untapped passion, waiting to be lit, and fueled. And I believe that if I keep on challenging my skills and talents, training them, and sharpening them all my life, starting now, I will eventually have the skill it takes to set aflame the untapped passions of millions of people, passion to do what they can towards a good goal, and not only keep the flames from dying, but strengthen them, until millions of people are contributing towards making the world a better place, by doing what they can. I believe that I will be the candle that sets the other candles ablaze, and lights up the world around it. My passion was set ablaze by the hatred of what makes me different, and causes me and my friends to be discriminated, and face many hardships nobody else has to face. The hatred of that has sparked the flame of passion toward making the world a better place. When that passion flame was just sparked, I just wanted to make people around me happy. And as it grew in strength, I wanted to end bullying and make others happy. Then the fire found tinder, and I wanted to make people happy, educate people, end bullying, and be a gentleman. And at this point, I want to change the world on a big scale. I can only imagine that by the time I can achieve my goal, the flame of my passion will be more than a flame, roaring like a lion and powerful like a raging grizzly, but grow to be not a flame but a tornado of fire, growing with everything in it’s way. Over the course of my life, things will change. Sad and exciting things will happen. But one thing that will never change is my passion. And when I die, my passion will inspire others to change the world as well, and carry on where I leave off. I will bring honor to my family name. So wish me luck.
