Assignment 1- Reagan Smith

Hi, I’m Reagan Smith to most, Rea Rea the rapper to a few that I knew in 8^th grade social studies class. This was an ironic nickname though, since there are very few rap songs that I like. (I ended up getting that nickname after coming up with a rap introduction for my project group.) A personal goal that I have this year is to do my best to follow through with my platforms that I set forth when I was running for Student Council Vice President- improve communication pathways, make student voice opportunities accessible to everyone, and start a discussion about an innovative scheduling system. I will also strive to continue to get good grades and achieve my ACT goal score.

The most meaningful moment of my summer was during our last day in Hilton Head South Carolina, when a lifeguard was blowing their whistle and many people were getting out of the water. Someone had spotted a shark- a baby shark or a smaller variety. Then I saw a sting ray. We hadn’t seen dangerous marine life until that last day. It wasn’t that they weren’t there the past few days we had been there; we just hadn’t seen them. That didn’t keep me out of the water though, but it caused me to realize that it is God’s world, not mine.

My favorite website is probably Spotify, even though it is mostly app based. Spotify helped to redefine what online music looks like, and they did it pretty well. https://www.spotify.com/us/
