  1. I am Rachel Collins and some of my hobbies are that I like to sing, act, and play soccer. A weird habit of mine is actually always singing and humming.This summer I am going to South Carolina with my family and also my birthday is in the summer which is something to look forward to. Something interesting about myself is that I have been singing for many years and once got a standing ovation. I am interested in AP government because I myself think that I am very good at discussing a question and getting into debates with others. I am very confident with public speaking and am not shy to talk. My favorite president would have to be john F. Kennedy. My favorite current politician is Ben Carson who ran for president, as I watched the campaign for president and the debates he was the only one who didn't scream over people, but when he spoke he knew exactly what he was talking about and very well educated.

  5. Hello, I am Lojean Elsayed and I do tennis and track. My weird habit is that I usually do things backwards, such as tests and assignments. This summer I plan on going to the beach and Lake Compounce for the majority of my vacation. An interesting fact about me is that I am Egyptian and speak fluent Arabic. The reason that I am interested in AP gov is that I want to learn more about our government and the law system. By doing so, I will know the basis of the government and will be able to have political opinions based upon actual knowledge. My favorite president is Barak Obama because almost everything he did was for the best interest of our country and he did not try to start unnecessary conflicts with other countries.
