My one word theme for the year is: finish. I want to finish all my assignments and I cannot wait to finish high school. Everything seems so stressful and I can't wait finish everything that is causing me so much stress!

Envy and lying is something a lot of people struggle with and I am included in that group. Personally, I struggle with envying people's ability to "have it all together". I try my best to have it all together but I seem to be envious of people who have everything. Even though the majority of the time, they are not fully balancing everything, it irks me to see them act like everything is perfect when I know everything is not perfect in my life. The one thing I lie most to myself about is the perfection of the future. I have great expectations for the future and expect everything to go so smoothly and most of the time I lie to myself that everything will go great when in actuality there will be bumps along the way.

Preliminary Proposal

Currently, my essential question is: to what extent does smoking cigarettes negatively impact cardiovascular health? I believe that creating a website will be the best way to show case this project because it s easily accessible and easily spread to other people. I hope for some of my "real inquiry" to come from the research project I am working on at my mentorship.
