- My "impact activity" is creating a recipe for banana cream pie. I wanted to do this because throughout my family history, all of my family members know how to make this pie except me. So I'm gonna be learning through my mother because she is a very good baker and makes things for dessert during family gatherings.
- I shaped this by planning to do a video but a video would only show how I can make it but I decided to make a recipe so that I can share it through the next generation along with letting me and the next generation to share them with other people and friends.

Project Icarus Journal #3
Essential Questions:
- My passions are baseball, and making new things. These are my passions because I dedicate myself to baseball for like a year as I have seasons, practices, and take time on weekends to make myself better at it. I enjoy making new things because it expands my knowledge and makes me learn new things in the world I never knew. For example when I first started making new kinds of food like beef broccoli I felt so successful and from there I learned that making food and new things were something I really enjoyed.
- Something that motivates me towards learning is the success feeling you get when you accomplish something. For example when I was in 8th grade and I got a 4.0 I had a accomplished feeling that really motivated me to do good because before and that I really didn't have a purpose to go to school and from then I really push myself to get that same kind of feeling I got. Also just to get that kind of feeling makes me feel like I really mean something to the world as I'm not just another person in school.
- Some skills that I mastered is patience and dedication. I mastered these skills because I have been through so much I have learned to be patient and not force things because there is always so thing that happens if you try to just force things to happen. For example when you are baking things you need patience on waiting for your end product to come out instead of trying to take it out of the oven too soon or else it wouldn't turn out the way you want it to. Also it takes dedication because baking is something you can't just do when you want without it getting boring. If you had dedication baking would be something you like doing instead of just another thing that you have to do.
-School is important because without an education you wouldn't be able to get a good job or go to a good college. Also it creates opportunities for you to have success in your life as in different majors in college. Also it gives you information that you wouldn't get if there were no school which would give you a more harder life. Also it gives people an opportunity to others to meet others. And finally school is a way for some people to take of some stress they have at home and gives them people to express them to.

Occupy Moanalua Flyer
.jpg)
We are doing the kind of flyer to show that once not that long ago the prices for lunch were very cheap. but now they are thinking of making it to almost $3.35 and for the economy now that kind of is alot for people that have been laid off. So we feel that the school department should lower the prices of lunch.

Video Response: Oprah
1. The torture of the prisoners, the way the camp looked, the look of what the gas chambers looked like, and what the camps had looked like and how big the gates were.
2. I liked how they talked quietly during the whole interview from not trying to disrespect Eliezer's feelings, and also respecting the fact that the place was where he had gone through so much, and how he felt that he stilled believed that people's souls remained and didn't want to disrespect them. Also i liked the different camera angles which shown how the ground had looked, and how they used excerpts out of the book to really emphasize the feeling that Eliezer was trying to describe during that particular part of the interview.
