Assignment 1: Gus Carlson

Hi. My name is Augustine Carlson, but I go by Gus. This year, my goals are to pass all of my AP tests and get credit for those classes, and to make school more enjoyable and stress less. Here at Henry Clay, I participate in Y-Club, Model UN, and on the Academic Team. Over the summer, I went to New York City for a week with my family, which was a lot of fun. It was meaningful to see how in the big city, everyone was always rushing around everywhere and freaking out. It made Lexington seem a lot more laid back and carefree. If I could have any superpower, it would be invisibility, because I think it sounds cool and I could go anywhere and do anything without anybody knowing. In my free time I enjoy reading, camping, watching movies, and listening to music. Something that geeks me out is Star Wars, definitely my favorite movie franchise of all time. I don't know if I have a favorite website, but I like TED, because I like listening to intelligent people with unique, interesting ideas.
