Bucket List

1) Learn how to speak German and Russian-  Germany and Russia are two places I really want to go to, so I'd like to speak their language before I go. 
2) Do a voice over- I really love voice acting and I would at least like to say that I have done something within that field.
3) Create a cartoon- If I were to make one I'd like to teach life lessons through them so that kids could have somewhat of a guidance in life.
4) Build a house from the ground up- My dad has taught me a lot about construction, so I would like to put those skills to use.
5) Write an article in a newspaper- Not only do I love to write, but I think I would like to share some important information with people.

My Favorite Hobby

As you may have read before, I do enjoy hobbies and I have taken apart of a couple.  My favorite hobby right now is photography, or the art of photo taking.  Matter of fact, at school I'm enrolled in a photography class.  You maybe asking, why do I find photography interesting?

I really love photography because I feel you can convey and send many emotions and ideas through them.  Also I find it to be a digital way we can save our memories and share it with others.  Through our photos we can look at other peoples' perspectives and see the world out of their eyes. 

What do I like taking photos of most?  Well, I do enjoy snapping a few pictures of landscape and other environmental things.  However, I the thing I enjoy taking pictures of the most is Lego.  Yeah I know, big surprise.  Yes there is this thing called toy photography, but I consider it like a sect of the photography tree.

Here is a link to one of my favorite photographers:

About Me

Hello, my name is Harrison George and I am a junior at Back Bay High School.  This is my first year attending this school and I'm already excited for what this school will offer me.  I was born and raised here in California, however I spent my first year alive living in Luxemburg.  If you don't know where that is, it is a small country in Europe (about the size of L.A.).  My dad always would tell me that when I was first learning to speak that it was in German. This was because I was watching Sponge Bob in German.

You might be asking me, do you still speak German? The answer is NEIN! Side-note: I've been trying to take some German classes outside, so someday I might. So since I this is my first year here at Back Bay, you probably want to know where I came from. From middle school to a quarter of my sophomore year I attended Costa Mesa High School.  I don't know if people still have hobbies, but I have managed to keep up with a few.  I know this may sound childish, but I still play with Lego.  I seriously don't care about sharing this because I believe once in awhile you have to entertain that child inside of us (FYI there is no literal child living in you, unless you are pregnant).  Also, I try to keep up with drawing when I can.  To be honest with you I don't really consider this a hobby, more of a way to express my thoughts and emotions.  I kinda feel like you shouldn't judge your art solely on the purpose of it looking beautiful, because we all see and think about things differently, but on all of the emotions and ideas that were conveyed by the artist.

This year I have some goals while I attend this school.  For example I would really love to graduate this year.  Ultimately I would like to make sure I can get all my credits caught up as well as grades.  Another is make it to everyday of school and be punctual to all my classes.
