Who's Your Hero

Alexander Graham Bell For this project I have chosen Alexander Graham Bell as my hero because, to be frank, I'm not really sure what else to put for this blog. I think that his achievements in life and the cause or maybe the motivation behind them are an admirable one. Something that will be used and practically integrated into society and the modern world forever is quite the accomplishment, one that should be something worthy of one's respect and admiration.

  Possessions Photo Project The items in this photo tell you about my daily life. The ping pong paddle means that I enjoy playing ping pong, I feel like it's one of the best ways to past the time while doing something moderately physical. Like ping pong, I also enjoy other physical activities like weight lifting and running hence the dumbbells, timer, and shoes. The rest of the items are a drawing tablet, my schoolbag, and a toothbrush and some floss, you can probably guess what I do with those. :)
