I had a really enjoyable time writing about my past experience on doing community service and how it had a huge impact on my life. Since it was so personal and important to me, it felt like writing down what I had to say came to me really easily. I also enjoyed the style of writing that we had to do for this assignment. I enjoy writing to describe or tell a story much more than the typical essay format. In the end, I was able to get the recording done and posted in a relatively short amount of time, which is typically not how it goes with these recordings. Overall, I was extremely happy how the final result turned out.

For my This I Believe / The Personal is Political topics, I am thinking about writing about getting young students involved in community services and how it played a vital role in developing both me and my mother when we were in high school. Another topic I am thinking about includes my brother, how he came out to his family as transgender as well as what aspects of their lives changed after that.

For my Civic Issues topic, I believe I will continue to talk more about sustainability, more specifically on unique sustainable practices or less heard of sustainability leaders. I would also enjoy talking more about community service and it is important in childhood development.
