One Community Service (Chain Reaction) experience that I have had is traveling to the state capital, Tallahassee and acting as a lobbyist to get a March or Dimes Bill passed that increases the maximum income moms are allowed to have and still be covered by income. Because prematurity can be prevented by a healthy moms.
Being in IB has been a journey, one that will definitely be remembered and beneficial from years to come. It is a  combination of almost everything possible a high school student can be exposed to. The students in IB are what i would categorize as "unique". Of course its full of cliques, but a few homely individuals. I can honestly say the staff are the people that kept me in the programs. Every year there was at least one teacher that the upperclassmen said was a great teacher and that continued on the Senior year!  We have a blast, but studying is always first! I believe at the end of my Senior Year I will be able to write an essay at the drop of a pen on almost any topic possible. My goal in the future at the moment is to become an anesthesiologist, however the first step is to spell it out! IB is a very individualistic program. It takes complete devotion. You could sit in your room at the desk and look at the sealing but it really takes that devotion and personal momentum and desire to grow. Reading is one thing I would like to learn to love. I LOVE BIOLOGY. Its an awesome topic and ive always enjoyed it.

“This is what you shall do; Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body.”
Walt Whitman
