December 13: When do you buy your Christmas presents?
I normally buy Christmas presents in October and November.
December 14: Share a memorable gift— opening moment of childhood.
The one gift that stands out would be when my parents bought me an English Composition Textbook, they knew I was struggling in class particularly with writing back in fourth grade. By the way, in Florida and in my school we have an exam in fourth grade to evaluate our writing skills (includes both our handwriting and the content) for the first time and our grade there determines our position for the next year and it also determines if we get held back or not. I would read and take notes, writing essays throughout all of break up until the day of the exam. I scored a five so I was pretty proud and I know I got the point off because my handwriting has always been complex to understand. I interpreted the textbook as my parents trying their best to help me, they don’t speak or write in English so they couldn’t help me in any other way I guess, in a subject I was struggling with.

7/100 days of productivity Studying for biology--- got a test tomorrow! Also working on a project for computer science, save me please....
3/100 days of productivity (late) Finished reviewing my notes for tomorrow's quiz in Spanish literature
I now recognize that it has passed two weeks since the start! Working harder I know it will guarantee fruit at the end. Speaking of work, today I've been writing the outlines for the essays I need to write for English about "The greatest adventures of Sherlock Holmes". At this rate, I'll finish by Wednesday! (The structures... not the essays) See you until then!
December 10: What is a cherished family tradition from your childhood?
Decorating a Christmas tree and watching movies after dinner.
It's bright in the morning and I'm heading to a AP Spanish Literature session, not before I get all my papers in check of course! It feels strange at how different the morning feels when it's a weekend morning from weekday mornings...
