my life capsule

In History class we are writing essay's about important people in History and as part of the assignment we have 

to come up with items that would represent our person and put them in a time capsule! Now I'm going to talk 

about what I would put in a time capsule to represent myself. 

Family / Childhood: As a child I was very happy and creative. I loved reading and anything to do with art. So in my time capsule I would put one of my favorite books and piece of art that I painted.

Heritage / Culture: I have a HUGE family. My grandpa has 7 brothers and a sister, so I would put a photograph of all of them in Holland in front of their flower business.  

Accomplishments / Achievements: I think one of my bets accomplishments was after training for the Carpinteria orchard to ocean 3k run. I finished in under 35 minutes and made top three out of the 11 to 18 age group (I was 12) Another one of my best accomplishments was when I got an A on my Grammar Final in 6th Grade. 

Legacy Left Behind: I am basically a kind person and I hope that people feel the same way. I want to be remembered as a funny, sweet, and lovable person so I would put a candy heart inside my capsule.

And all of these things would go inside of a treasure box because who doesn't like finding treasure!

Me as a Motif

Today I will be writing about how animals have effected my life. In The Glory Field we are tracking the motif of animals, like birds, dogs, and horses. 

Those three animals have a strong impact in my life and in the Glory Field. 

Birds that are in my life are owls. Not only are they my school mascot, but they are a big part of my outside life and where I live. However, owls are not the only type of bird in my life. I am a photographer so birds are something that I can capture in the moment. 

My family and I are very big animal lovers and we have many animals. I have four dogs which have helped shaped who I am today. They have taught me how to be responsible and caring even more than you would know. 

However, in the Glory Field dogs aren't a happy thing like in my life. Dogs were helping the white people to capture the runaway blacks, so most of the Glory Field Characters had a negative experience with dogs. 

Horses are another animal that have made an impact on my life. I started horseback riding when I was 10 and a few years ago I got my own horse, Sunny. Like dogs, my horse has taught me how to be responsible.
