My Masterpiece

The Paper
Yes , I did fall in love with learning I think learning and listening makes you a better person because if I wouldn't have experienced the open source learning academy I wouldn't have been able to learn how to stop listen and learn. I have fallen in love with learning because of the environment I have been in for the past couple of months, It has really helped me learn that we can do better with a little bit of help from people who went from strangers to trustworthy people that you can rely on for good advice.
One time in open source learning I talked about how I wanted to be an agent for the FBI and the responses I got made me genuinely smile like my smile was so big thinking about the comments like "wow that's a great jobs" "that's unique usually people stick with being a police" "we dont really hear about people who want to join the FBI" and "that's really impressive" that's when I felt the support, the feeling of understanding and well trust which is what I want to talk about next I have always been kicked out of class and have always been a "troublemaker" or a "talkative" child my parents have always received calls from the principal, to teachers and counselors I'm actually not even allowed to be in the same class with my best friend but when we started zoom I became really shy and I just changed a lot. At the beginning of the OSLA academy program I went through a lot and didn't trust anyone but slowly after talking, laughing and receiving advice from these piers I was able to trust people and talk again I really enjoyed this class I think the best thing is we were a small class because it helped to get to know each and every one of them and made me build a good bond to them not like a friend I will go cry to but to ask for work and school advice thank you for giving me that chance Dr. Preston.
When we had to give one weird thing about each other I had a good laugh trying to figure out who's was who's and I really got to know everybody better, It made me feel like I knew them more. When I was writing my book it was like life was a dream and then I remembered I had to connect it to my previously programmed courses and I did my math class is connected to how in depth a bullet goes and how fast it went, My physical education class is connected to how fast they can run , My biology class is connected to medicine and the doctors, My history class has some of the FBI history, Leadership is involved because someone is the leader of a group and French is a language that is written on a note that gives a huge clue in the book. I dont think ive finished my hero's journey I have a lot more to learn from the class so I will leave as that until the next semester where I hope to see all my classmates and procced with my journey. until then

TODAY A STUDENT BECAME A MASTEER

FINAL MASTERPIECE RESEARCH PHASE ONE
First thing I did was search up The Federal Bureau Of Investigation and what first came up was this website that shows what jobs their are and their requirements and what called my name was the tab that said "special agents" that says their requirements are to be 26-36 old and to have a skill of some sort that helps them and you have to be in shape because they have a physical requirement as well.

Describe a time you gave or got an idea that helped make something better.
Whenever I cook or I bake my mom gives me advice like put more or less spices and honestly the food tastes better than what it was going to taste like
How can all of us human beings do a better job of protecting the places and resources that provide everything we need to live?
Me and my sister used to go to the beach and clean up once in a while because we had time but now all we can really do to protect our environnement is recycle. My little cousin picks up the trash with her little gloves in front of our appartements because she hates seeing it dirty and I think that little things like that day by day can make a change
When I was a kid, we played at the park, in the street, in the yard of the abandoned house down the street... but in a world of driving long distances, concrete, pandemics, crime, play dates, etc., what do little kids do these days for unstructured fun?
I am actually going to upload a video next week on this topic I am going to interview my little cousins and ask them because I am not sure I can give you a right answer myself.
IT IS BEST TO GIVE AND RECEIVE
Todays work made me think about my masterpiece in a different way like i'm not going to be the only one working I'm going to have co workers and their going to have different point of view on some stuff and i'm actually really ready even though I still have like 5 years until I start working but i'm ready because I am ready to learn more from people because the world is not only how I see it
HOW I MADE TODAY MY MASTERPIECE
Today I woke up at 9 got ready , ate breakfast and drove to Ventura and then Oxnard on a the search for a new car , we went to so many car dealerships my legs were sore and on top of that my sister didn't like any of the cars she saw. Then we went to a food truck that my sister saw on Instagram that sold birria and we ate their after that we just came back home arrived at 10 started doing my homework and now its 4:54 in the morning and I am really sleepy.
SAFETY IN NUMBERS
In life my parents make me feel safe because they have been their for me my whole life .I dont know if I'm safe online. Online its one of the most dangerous places I dont think you can ever be safe unless your not on it.

Master Plan
Some of my role mentors are Matthew Gray Gubler , Mal and Mulan. Matthew Gray Gubler is one of my role mentors because he is a director, actor, artist, model, and an author. Mal is one of my role mentors because she changed for the better and she tried her best to fit into Auradon prep. Mulan is my role mentor because she cares for her family ,she is brave , she proves that women are equal or maybe even better than men and that a girl can do anything a boy can.
Mulan's motive was her family because her dad was recruited to go to war but he was hurt so she decided to go herself. Her opportunity was at night when all her family was sleeping when she left to war on her horse . Her practice was during the war by practicing day in night in one of the scenes she is seen in the night trying to go up a tall trunk that had an arrow at the top with weights on her hand and in the morning we see her on top of the trunk with the arrow in her hand. She started showing skill and or proficiency around the end of the movie when she practiced with the rest of the men and when she shot a mountain of snow so it could fall on the bad guys and also at the end of the movie when they all saved China. Being bullied by the men because she wasn't strong enough and taking the responsibility of replacing her dad made her develop
I can imitate Mulan by taking chances and risks like she did by replacing her dad in war .She had no doubt when leaving her house and going to war for her dad and I want to be as brave as she was and try new things or learn something new and not be afraid of showing what it is ive learned to do also I think Mulan has taught me that even If I dont know how to do something I should work day and night until I achieve that goal
Mal's motive for becoming good and being brave enough to disobey her mother and do the right thing was Ben and her friends. Her opportunity to think her actions through was having to face her mom and defend Auradon and her friends from her mom and choosing to be good. She didn't really have much practice besides making new friend. She started showing skill when she had to let Ben go and she realized she wanted to be good and she didn't want to follow her mothers footsteps
I can imitate Mal by not sticking to one choice in this case I cant stick to one college and I should keep my mind open because maybe I will find the right one later on without trying to I can also imitate her braveness because she stood for what she believed and wasn't scared. I expect to be able to demonstrate more participation and not be scared of what other students might think of my opinion.
Matthew Gray Gubler started showing proficiency when he had to become an adult and start focusing on his acting career and his author career. I can imitate Matthew Gray Gubler by instead of just following one dream I can follow both of mine and just make it work like maybe be doctor for the FBI i'm not sure but what I am sure about is that he helped me a lot with being myself and figuring out my career path because he made me more open minded about what I wanted to do with my life
The outcome of being more open minded is that I want to be able to make a presentation on how I can manage to do both of my dream careers and follow my dreams of pursuing this and it if it works out I can actually use the presentation to decide what college I want to go to.
I did not really use any sites for my research besides my memory on these Disney movies and Disney+ and for Matthew their wasn't many websites that talked about his life except the movies he has voiced over , acted, or directed which are all really interesting to me. I know that I dont have many sites but I am sure I used everything that is true about these three great role mentors.
From all three of these people as my mentors I expect to be able to demonstrate my future plans in a presentation and all my dreams and budget becuase they really do help with everything I need in my future like personality traits and work enthusiasm. I plan to demonstrate how they helped me with each and every step into my future.
In conclusion these three mentors have helped me a lot and I think I'm ready to start making my presentation and looking for jobs that I can both work for the FBI and the medical field because I really want to do both and I see my future with both of these careers and I want to take something from each role mentor like how Mulan believed in herself , How Mal was brave and how Matthew is focused , determined, and hard working. I truly thank these role mentors for helping with my master plan.
Journal Topics March 29- April 2
Why do people interview each other? What do you think is interesting about this? Who would you like to see interviewed, or even interview yourself if you had the chance?
I think we interview people because we want to learn about them and we want to see if we are like them for example for celebrity interviews I feel like we hope that our favorite celebrity does something likes us our agrees with something we agree with as well.
I understand counting off days until the end of a prison sentence, but we are free - aren't we? Doesn't it make you wonder? Why do we crave Wellness Weeks, Breaks, Vacations, Weekends... what the hell are we doing to ourselves the rest of the time?Journal Topics march 22-26
How do you serve as a role model for friends, siblings, and others? What qualities about role models inspire you?
You don't have to do much to be a role model for example you can give a talk to your little cousins about recycling and telling them about how it saves the planet and you get some extra cash it doesn't seem like you did a lot by doing that but they will probably spread it to their friends and then you would be a good role model who just save a little bit of our environment by doing so little yet so much.
Reflect on your Key Interests. What do you want to be able to understand or do by the end of the semester? How will you demonstrate that you've learned new concepts or skills? Look to your role mentors for inspiration - how do you know they know what they're doing? How will we know that YOU know what you're doing? We will discuss this topic and take a bit longer than usual on our journals today, so please feel free to brainstorm ideas, ask questions, or request a breakout room to dive deeper.
I want to be able to profile or do cpr on someone I will demonstrate this to the class by either profiling someone or making a presentation on how , when, and why we need to do cpr on someone.
What music are you listening to? What ideas do you want to write about
I am listening to "we are young" one of my favorite songs and I'm thinking about how ready I am for summer and even though we are still in a pandemic I will 100% enjoy this song as much as I did for the past few years and I will simply lay down write and listen to this song on repeat because it just I dont know gives me life for some reason

CURIOSITY BRINGS THIS CAT TO LIFE
Dr. Preston gave us 3 articles and we chose this onehttps://www.scholastic.com/teachers/articles/teaching-content/creating-curious-thinkers/
I chose this article because we grew up seeing scholastics in a lot of the books we read and since I am familiar to this company I decided to play it safe and read this one.
Curiosity is an asset because It can help us learn more because if we are curious we will ask questions and we will achieve more, I know a lot of students get scared when they have a question or are curious about something so they just blow it off their mind and I think that is dumb because they will always wonder what would have happened if they would have asked and i also think if we dont ask questions we will never learn.

MASTERPIECE STEP ONE
By the end of the semester I want to be able to do cpr and know some symptoms that seem normal but are actually really important I also want to be able to profile someone. I can show this to the class in a presentation like maybe profiling someone and maybe showing how cpr is done. I know what my role mentors are doing because Mulan demonstrated that she could go to war and she proved it and you guys can know what I'm doing and if I'm doing it by demonstrating and proving to you guys that I know what I I'm doing
MY ROLE MENTORS
My role mentors are Mulan and Matthew Gray Gubler. One of the things I can adapt from Mulan is her courage and her braveness I can also adapt her ambition. Some of Matthew Gray Gubler's qualities that I can adapt are his creativity, self expression, and his talent

I HAVE A DREAM
Last week I went on the Marian hospital website like I have been doing for 4 years and checking if all the volunteer spots have been taken and also I have been doing a lot of thinking about maybe leaving my math class and continuing with Dr. Preston as my math teacher so I can focus more and be less stressed about not being caught up with the class. I have also been doing research on college now and focusing more on my medical field. I have also been trying to profile people and ive been learning sign language. My goal for this week is to read more on my medical book and be able to write an essay on something ive learned and to be able to have a small conversation in sign language with a deaf person

LEARNING LOOKS DIFFERENT
Journal topics 3/16 , 3/1 , 3/
Describe a time when you felt like there was a mistake, or a failure, or an obstacle that actually helped you clarify your work process, create a new strategy, and improve your results.
One time while I was making a cake I was missing one egg and it was about 11pm so their was no store open but I already had mixed all the dry ingrédients so I just winged it and it turned out better because it did not taste eggy at all
Describe a time you took on something challenging or difficult and just crushed it.
I had been told by my family members that making flan was difficult and that's why I had never done it but one day I really wanted flan and the ones a the store do not taste good so I tried making flan and it was difficult to make the caramel and work with it but other than that it was really easy and to me it came out really good
What's the deal with St. Patrick's Day? In America, it's often celebrated the same way as Cinco de Mayo - at the bars. Describe a holiday from your family's cultural history that has a special meaning. How do you celebrate or observe the occasion?
The holiday my family celebrates in big is Christmas because we all get together and bring food we used to all get together in my house but then my cousins got a bigger house so we now do it there and my mom usually takes tamales and pozole and my dad if he makes them he takes tacos de canasta , my sister takes the soda and I take the deserts like flan, cheesecake , corn bread etc..
My family at home celebrates el dia de los muertos and we make our little ofrenda we put bread, candy, hot chocolate, mole , mezcal , tequila , everything our ancestors liked to eat or drink and we also put their picture , and in Mexico we have a 3 day party and the adults drink in honor of the dead , this to me is my favorite most rich in culture holiday.
