What is your legacy? What are you leaving behind for others? (or what do you hope you are leaving behind for others) Another way to think of this question: how do you want to be remembered by future students? Or do they want to remembered at all? If not, why not?
In my opinion wanting to be remembered is selfish and setting out to be is too, but being remembered and having a legacy is completely different. Again in my opinion a legacy is what is left after you're gone but a memory or being remembered fades over time. Us as seniors haven't lived long enough to have a legacy, it is a selfless act that inevitably helps someone else. You don't do it for attention. Just like at a soldier's funeral the flag that is handed to the widow is a symbol of their legacy. I don't really want a legacy unless I've done something worthy like if I died tomorrow for saving someone else's life, just like the teachers in Newtown, dying to save their kids' lives, that is a legacy that will live on.

1. "I choose you" by Timeflies - I love pretty much all their songs but this ones lyrics are very intimate to listen to and the beat is soooooo catchy, this song reminds me of my swim girls we all ran around the pool on our senior night and "danced" to it, it is a memory i will cherish forever.
2. "Working Man" by Imagine Dragons - I love this because its an Interesting mix between the positive mood of the song and beats and the sad at the same time, it is a wonderful mix. I love the hidden meaning which is, when you work so hard there is always a catch and something most always will go wrong, but you have to keep going.
3. "Stars" by Youngblood Hawke - This song literally speaks to me, there's a specific part in the lyrics that makes it so personable and maybe one of the biggest reasons I love this song "we're all fighting to make something for ourselves" it reminds me that everyone is just trying to do what i am, trying to achieve their hopes and their dreams.
4. "Heartbeats" by Royal Teeth. - I'm not sure why i like this song, but its about a brief but passionate relationship, but the guys feelings and intentions changed. The song is sung by the heartbroken girl who made a realization that while she was in love he ultimately ended up using her. It is hauntingly beautiful.
5. "Higher Ground" by TNGHT, I'm not usually into trap music but i have to say i really like this, we used it during swim for our pump up CD and every time it played everyone went nuts including people who weren't from our team. The bass is Phenomenal and it really does pump you up. I recommend this to EVERYONE to listen to.

If you could create a movie of your life, who would you cast and what would the story be? In addition to answering the question on your blog for your life, I want you to comment on mine with who you think I should cast and why.
If there was ever a movie about my life i would not want anyone to "play" me. My movie would just be made up of a lot of home movies. That way it would be real, and i would have my family sitting down and talking about be, and then having a clip of me doing something while they're talking.
