 Prompt Response 
When I was younger I saw this guy guy who was bald and had tattoos all over his face. My first thought was that he looked scary as hell. I wanted to avoid this guy and did everything I could to not look in his direction. despite looking all scary he turned out to be a really nice person. I was asking my mom for a quarter so I could buy bubblegum from the little machine. Him overhearing this quickly came over and did that magic trick where they pull the quarter from behind your ear. At the time it was the coolest thing anyone had showed me. 

Summary 

After engaging with a man I thought looked really scary, he turned out to be really nice.

This showed me not to judge people by their appearances and it also showed me that appearances can be deceiving.

Friend 1 was acting like the leader of the group and was deciding everyone's role in the project, giving himself the easiest part, the drawing part. Friend 2 didn't like the idea of friend 1 bossing everyone around and insisted that we all do the research and writing part and then all work on the drawing part together.

 Prompt Response Someone in my life who inspires me to be a better version of myself is my mom. My mom had me at a really young age and sacrificed so much for me and my brother. My mom's strongest quality is that shes a HARD WORKER. At a really young age she has dealt with multiple jobs whilst also finding a way to take care of us. Despite not being around much because of work, the time we spent together was extremely valuable to us. She always made time for us and always took us to places and bought us things that she thought we deserved. She sacrificed her life interests so that me and my brother could have everything we ever wanted. She could have bought herself nice things or go out with her friends but instead she prioritized us every single time.  Summary My mom is the person I look up to the most. Reflection My mom is so cool.
