Yanna, this was like poetry. It was kind of depressing but I am very happy I read it. I stay up late a lot but I never really want to. I think it is because of a dependace on technology, at least personally. https://www.sleepfoundation.org/articles/why-electronics-may-stimulate-you-bed that article speaks to why...
Hi Abigail. This was really inspiring to read. It is funny because our generation is always told we are lazy and we get nothing done, but we are working harder than most any other generation. I got a job at a younger age than any person in my family...
