Prompt: In 2–3 well-developed sentences, reflect on how you spent your Holiday Break. Then, identify four personal you would like to achieve this year and briefly explain why each goal is important to you (Copy and paste your completed response from Writable into your blog).

Prompt Response: Over my holiday break, I went to Miami Florida to celebrate my cousins 18th Birthday. For the second week of my holiday break I spent it mainly at my sister's house and stayed over a lot. New Years with my whole family and had lots of fun laughter. 

My first goal that I want to achieve this year is getting my permit. This goal means a lot to me because I am now 18, and I do not want to be getting my permit at such an old age. To achieve this age, I have to study online and have family or friends test me within the knowledge that I gather. Hopefully, by this summer in July, I pray to have passed my permit and learned how to drive.

The second goal that I plan to achieve this year is to get a job that will make me happy. This goal is important to me because I'm growing up, and I plan to save lots of money so that I can afford things I want and hopefully save up for a car. I plan to apply for jobs in May 2026, so that once summer starts, I can have a full-time job and earn a lot with extra hours.

My third goal this year is to go out more. This goal is for my mental health since mainly all I do is stay indoors, which sometimes makes me feel like I isolate myself. I want to make this goal happen in June, where it'll be summer, and give myself a peace of mind. 

My fourth goal of this year is to move out and have my own apartment. To show myself and my parents that I am responsible and can live alone, somewhere near them. I plan to make this happen by the end of September of 2026, where I feel like I had plenty of time and feel ready.


Summary: January 6, 2026, was absent from school.

Reflection: I strive to be the best that I can be everyday in any way possible. So that I have to be the better version of myself and that my loved ones can have a great me everyday.
