All About
Me
The first five minutes of my life my name was Mackenzie Marie Hewett. My
dad didn’t think that I looked like a Mackenzie so he changed it to Katie. I
couldn’t picture myself as a Mackenzie; it doesn’t suit me like Katie does. I am
a loving person; there isn’t time in life for hate. If I had to describe myself
in three words it would be unique, outgoing, and fun. I am loud, I laugh a lot,
and I don’t let the little things get to me. You only have so many seconds in
life, don’t waste them. I also don’t care what people think of me. If you don’t
like me for who I am then that’s your loss, not mine. My goal is to wake up
happy and go to bed happy, if I do that then I’ve had a good day.
There are some very weird things that I love in life! I love looking at
the sky; it’s one of my favorite things to do in the spring and summer. It’s so
beautiful and it’s different every day. I have tons of pictures of the sky on my
phone; it’s one of my weird obsessions. I also really love ranch. Sometimes when
I finish my food and I still have ranch left, I drink it. I don’t know why but I
have an obsession with ranch. It’s so yummy, especially Sugar and Slice’s ranch!
I am in three sports… volleyball, basketball, and track. My favorite
sport is volleyball, I love it. The rush you get when you spike the ball down at
someone’s face is overwhelming. I love playing basketball games, the practice’s
and the camps stink though. In the end, it’s worth it. If you want to be good at
something, you have to work at it. In track I do not run, I throw shot-put and
discus. I like discus better than I do shot and I’m better at it also. I use to
play softball but I quit last year because I did not like the coach. That’s one
of my biggest regrets in my life because it was my favorite sport and I miss it
a lot. I played 1st and 3rdand loved every minute of
it.
I absolutely love Justin Drew Bieber! I am a huge belieber, I have tons
of posters of him in my room. I’m going to his concert on July 6th
and I cannot wait! I’ve been counting down since Christmas and it’s getting
closer. I know all the words to all of his songs, I get his tweets sent to my
phone, I follow him on Instagram, Twitter, and Vine, and I know all the latest
news about him. It’s safe to say that I’m a little obsessed.
I love, love, love to read books! When I get a good book in my hand, I
cannot put it down until I am finished with it. I always choose books that are
really long because I never want my books to end. The longer, the better. I have
read so many books in my life, I couldn’t count. One of my favorite questions
people can ask me is what my favorite book is because I have no clue. There are
way too many good books out there for me to choose just one. I love all genres
of books too! I think my favorite part about reading a book is that you get to
make the scenery of what you think the characters and the setting looks like in
your head. It’s amazing what your mind can do while reading a
book.
When I was little I wanted to be an actress and a singer, I spent hours
sitting at home pretending I was famous. I use to practice my autograph day and
night because I wanted it to be good when I was famous and I would always put a
little crown next to it. Now, I’m older and I want to own a daycare. I’ve wanted
to own a daycare since I was in seventh grade. I love kids and I love spending
time with them!
I have two quotes in my life that I live by: “God only keeps you from
good things when he has better things planned.” and “Just keep swimming.” You
shouldn’t give up on anything in life. You should always keep swimming even life
is doing anything it can to bring you down, keep swimming. You only have so much
time in your life, don’t waste it. Live life to the fullest, love life more than
anything, and laugh as much as you breathe. There isn’t anything I love more
than my family and friends. I don’t know what I would do without them. I try my
best to be happy every day. I am thankful for who I am and what I have in my
life. I love my life and I wouldn’t change it for anything.

10-B: Final Free-Choice Reflection: May 31, 2013
1. My project is a drawing and a collage. I used pictures from magazines, printed off pictures, and I drew some. I had to make mine in one day because it got ruined/thrown away. It took me about 3 hours to make.
2. I think my strong parts of my project is the things that I drew because I put a lot of effort into making them look good. I think my pacifer and my One Tree Hill symbols are good.
3. I could have done a better job with everything. I should have rememberd to come and get my project early so it didn't get thrown out. I wish that I wouldn't have had to rush my project because it would have looked a lot better. It was not one of my best projects and I was dissappointed in myself.
4. My theme is All About Me. The deeper meaning of the project is to open up, to let people see the real me. I showed them who I am and the things that matter to me and that I like in life. I'm trying to tell them about myself. Let them know who I really am. I have drawings and cutouts of things that I like in my life and things that are important to me.
5. The important elements in my project are color and shape. Colors because I have a lot of different colors and also my background is four main colors. Also shape because I have a lot of different shpaes in my project.
6. I think that I have rhythm in my project because it is unorganized and some things repeat though. I also think that I have unity in my project because it is all about me and you can tell that, it shows my personality and who I really am.
7. I learned to be more responsible and to remember to come get my project sooner so I don't have to start over and do it all in one day. You should remember in life what the important things really are and you need to be more responsible.
8. First, I decided what I was going to do for my project. Second, I started my project. Third, I wrote my exceeding paper. Fourth, I did more of my project. Fifth, I forgot my project at schoool. Sixth, I came back to get it and it was gone. Seventh, I hard to start all over and do it one night.
9. My project got thrown away so I had to start all over the night before and do it in one night. I didn't go to bed until two am because I was up working on my project. I'm not blaming anyone but myself, I just got very frustrated last night because I didn't have all the magazine pieces that I wanted to use for it. I just had to live with and I got over it. I knew that it would be worth it in the end, I just kept on swimming. Just keep swimming.
10. Yes, I think that this was a worthwhile project. You got to choose your own project that you wanted to do so if you didn't like it or it was too hard, you had no one else to blame but yourself. I plan on taking photos this summer and to do some drawing. I'm trying to write a book so maybe I'll draw some pictures for the book.
