It is often suggested that where we live helps to shape how we see the world. How do you think your experience, your ideas about the world, your education, opportunities, and interests would be different if you had grown up and attended high school in an urban/inner city areas OR in a rural area?
Please consider drawing upon any real or imagined experiences you have had personally about urban/rural life, or those from pieces you have read as part of your studies at CHS/Epic.

Interests
What are your interests? (This can be in school, the field you want to study, the job you want to have, hobbies you pursue, etc.)
My interests are dancing and singing. I am pursuing a career in Criminal Psychology at the University of LaCrosse. I really enjoy binge watching shows on Netflix and binge eating junk food.

Hey Kylie! I also interested in Dancing. I'm the captain of the dance team, and I also love singing I actually record my own music at school because I'm in this after school program called " Music Production ". I notice that you want to go in the field of law I also want to pursue a career in law. I want to be a criminal defense Lawyer. What made you want to make a career out of Criminal Psychology? (Sound really fun to )
I like to play music, enjoy nature, go for walks, and play with my dog. I love animals, and I am planning on going to college to study veterinary medicine. I am unsure of whether or not I will pursue large or small animal science, however I am leaning towards doing a mix of the two.
Hi Katie, that's cool you're so involved into the arts. Are you into drawing or painting? Is there like an Art Center somewhere in Clintonville you can go to?
Maria, Our town has less than 5,000 people in it. In order to get to an Art Center it would be an hour ish drive. We don't really have a whole lot here.
I enjoying playing volleyball, snowshoeing,and playing with my dog. I am hoping to go to college in a big city to get away from small town life. I want to major in forensic psychology or neuroscience.
Hey Jade, we're kind of the opposite. I want to go to college in a small town to get away from the big city. Don't get me wrong though, I love Chicago.
I like to play football, basketball, and my PS4. I am pursuing a career in Veterinary Science at the University of Iowa State. I am still deciding if I want to do lab work with my degree or be out in the field.
I enjoying playing volleyball, snowshoeing,and playing with my dog. I am hoping to go to college in a big city to get away from small town life. I want to major in forensic psychology or neuroscience.
I'm very into music and singing, but I also like science. I'm planning on pursuing a career in the medical field. I love watching Grey's Anatomy and Law and Order SUV.
I'm into all kinds of music except I really don't like country music. I really like Adele, Beyonce, and Ariana Grande, along with many bands from the fifties and sixties. I don't really have a favorite song because there are so many great ones out there.
Hey Alyson! I love Ariana! I saw her in concert at my job. My favorite song right now by her is Dangerous Woman. Do you go to concerts? Or any music festivals..?
I enjoy lifting after school along with football and golf, I will be attending Iowa State to earn my degree in either environmental engineering or geosciences. Hunting and fishing are also major activities for most of us around here, as well as many outdoor winter sports like skiing or snowboarding. We are NOT all hicks though, contrary to what most outsiders believe.
I love to read, anything and everything. I also of course, love netflix, and all of my pets. I also really enjoy babysitting. I am going to college at St.Norbert's in De Pere next year, majoring in Biology/Pre-Med with minors in psychology and Spanish.
Hi Morgan, I sometimes watch snowboarding on TV and I have to admit it scares me when they fall. Probably because I have broken like 4 bones. Have you ever fallen before?

Hey Claire. My name is Rene. I see we have common things. In my four years of high school I was involved on the boys varsity soccer. What position do you play ? Do you play on a team ? and If you do what's the name of your team? What's your favorite song to sing ? What's your favorite book ? What's your favorite movies ?
I love playing volleyball and listening to music. I have always been involved in lots of athletics like softball, track, basketball, and volleyball, but volleyball and track are the two I have stuck with.
I highly find reading, singing,dancing, drumming, working with people/Chrildren and having fun period very interesting in my life. Some things that I find fascinating about these interests is that they each have a very specific meaning of life. I want to major in psychology and minor in special Ed because they both reveal the real me of what I really enjoy about life and how it can make a big difference in my life.
I love to model, act, do make up, I love to go out to eat specially at chipotle and TGI Fridays, I enjoy talking about anything to anybody, I enjoy sports, and love to swim I prefer water parks instead of beaches because the beach is gross, and I love to shop on the sales rack.
I enjoy writing music, singing, dancing, driving, listening to music, working on cars, shopping, eating out, going to under armor, I love hangout with my boyfriend and his family, I enjoy being around my family and dogs, love Netflix and Hulu, I enjoy math club. I really enjoy life.
I am very interested in basketball, singing, watching Netflix, hanging out with my friends and my boyfriend. I love to volunteer at different soup kitchens or help planning for weddings. I love going downtown and shopping at Forever 21,Love Pink, Charlotte Rousse. I also like to go to Lake Michigan and watch the waves crash together. I am deeply in love with the following restaurants Subway, Cheesecake Factory, Olive Garden Garret's Popcorn, and Harold's Chicken (best food ever). I also want to major in Psychology and my long term goal is to be a Lawyer.
I like going to Under Armor and watch the attractive employees and people watching downtown. I like going to concerts, last summer I sneaked into the Hozier concert. It was awesome. I want to go Lalapalooza to see J.Cole, Lana del Rey, and X Ambassidors because I love them.
Dierdra, I too love Hozier, how was the concert? I would love to see him at some point. The biggest concert I've ever seen was Paul McCartney, so I guess that's pretty big, but Hozier would be so much fun.
His concert was awesome, he sang "Foreigner's God", "From Eden", "Work Song", "Take Me to Church" ,and many other songs. I would love to see Paul McCartney in concert, you are so lucky!
I’m interested and enjoy a bunch of things like dancing, singing, cheerleading, cosmetology, physcology, cooking, music, walks on the beach, going to the movies, and so on. I hope to do dance and cosmetology in college.
Rene, I see you already have your own business, and I find that pretty cool because I would love to have my own business at some point. I was wondering what your business does, and how did you get it started?
Victoria, It's pretty cool to have your own business. The business I am doing is mostly about helping people that is willing to change their life style and earn money on their free time. I started my business last year, I only paid $177 to start my own business. If you want to know more about my business you can contact me: rene.moran@epicacademy.org. What kinda of business would you like to have?
I like going to the Planetarium, which is by lake Michigan. It takes money to things in Chicago,so the summer comes around there are many free activities to do here, such as: free Museum tickets, movies in the park,and different activities at Millennium Park. It has two towers that pour out water,and in the summer time it is crowded with people trying to cool off from the heat. There is also the Taste of Chicago, it's a food festival where many of Chicago's restaurants and food trucks showcase some of their best foods. It's free to get in, but you have to buy the food with tickets, which you buy from booths. The Taste has concerts there too. If you want to watch close up, you have to buy tickets, but most people just bring their own chairs/blankets and sit behind the barricade.
I like to play soccer, I've been playing since I was five, so its been a while. I also love music, I play flute and am in choir. I mostly listen to alt-rock, or indie, so Alt-J, Hozier, MGMT, and I also love the band The Struts.
Hey Victoria. My name is Rene. I see that we have common things. What position do you play ? What's your favorite team? Do you play in a team ? if you do what's the name of the team ?
Hey Rene, I usually play outside mid on either side, it depends on who I am playing with. I only play with my school team so we're just the Truckers, generic. My favorite team would probably have to be Chelsea.
Outside of school and my boring job I enjoy listening to music, going downtown, making funny faces on Snapchat, writing, and playing sports! My favorite genre of music, I listen to almost every genre, would be alternative rock. I have no favorite bands, just thinking about picking a favorite band gives me a headache, I like Coldplay, Lifehouse, Green Day, Mumford and Sons, etc etc...My first concert was Lifehouse and it was amazing! Last semester I was always downtown due to my internship at the Shedd Aquarium, which is located near downtown; while I was downtown I really enjoy taking pictures of the tall buildings, shopping and just being there period. I love taking pictures, I’m team Snapchat (cuquita17) not Instagram, sorry. However, when I’m not taking pictures I’m writing poems and journals, ironically, I went from wanting to be a journalist to teacher. This may be because of my interest in sports, working with others, being a leader and growing together.
My interests are dancing and singing. I am pursuing a career in Criminal Psychology at the University of LaCrosse. I really enjoy binge watching shows on Netflix and binge eating junk food.
