I’m Sam, and there is not much else other than I am a part of band. I play the euphonium and was one of the kids who dropped out of it freshmen year but came back during sophomore year. I ended up being the worst one in my section because I forgot how to play. At the start of the second semester we were given the chance to play the bassoon and that has been my primary instrument since, and I am no longer the worst in my section. I wish to make playing bassoon a common hobby even after high school, but it is also one of the more expensive instruments.
What I think is important about journalism is that the class creates permanent memories that we can always look back on. I want to become more involved in writing articles for the the Mayo Advocate. It is more entertaining than just looking at pictures, but not all articles are necessarily the most fun to write. They’re a lot more fun to read.
