This is a quote from one of my classmates about things he's passionate about.

By Bella F. from Arcata High School in California

“I enjoy finding or creating a story and perfecting it until it’s able to connect with people instead of just being white noise in the background. I want to impact people with stories that are meaningful and could actually instigate change in the world while having it also be interesting to read.”
