Assignment 1 Julia Meadors

Hello! My name is Julia Meadors. For this school year, I want to pass all of my AP exams, especially AP French, AP Calculus and, APUSH. I also want to remain involved in band and Girl Scouts through the Teen Leadership Council (TLC). I am also starting to work on my Gold Award project for Girl Scouts which is the equivalent to the Boy Scout Eagle Award. Over this past summer, I went to France for three weeks through the Lexington Sister Cities program. The entire trip was an amazing experience but the most meaningful moment occurred the day before I left. I sat down to breakfast with my correspondent’s mom and we had a long conversation entirely in French. This seems like a really small moment, but in this moment I realized that I could actually hold a conversation, both speaking and understanding, without falling back on the fact most of my family knew English. It helped to boost my confidence in French and helped me believe in myself. One thing that geeks me would for sure be band. I am very involved, attending jazz band every morning and marching band from July through the end of October as well as being in the Wind Ensemble during the day. Here is a video of our latest marching band performance as well as a picture I took at the American Cemetery in France.
