Today I was sleepy more than usual but I still managed to get work done. I didn’t have that much to do since I was caught up. One of the things I did was add music to my animations.

Today is the first day of my second week working with AMA and everything is going fine.
I think bicultural living is some times hard for the biracial people because people have a lot to say about mixed people when they say the N word or call their selves black. I mean to me they are black so they can use that word. I don’t get why non biracial people have so much to say about the bicultural community and they have nothing to do with it. Thats just my thoughts though.
Today we learned about how marijuana is bad. Did you know marijuana contains more than 400 chemicals? Anyway, when we were done, I made an Animaker video with marijuana as the topic. During the process of making this video, I started using the characters provided. Which I haven’t been doing a lot. I did different poses and added some dialogue. I had used them before but I didn’t try transitions and all the cool poses that the character has.
It’s the last day of my first week, it was really good. I’ve learned how to do many things over this week. I am excited for what else is in store. Today we listened to a Marijuana Prevention presentation. I learned some things from it. Overall my week was good.
This week of step up, we learned about drugs and subsistence abuse overall like vaping, tobacco, and marijuana. What I noticed throughout all of these issues is the number of young people that are using it. New policies and laws that specially target reducing that number of minors are more and more common throughout the world as well. This week we got more familiar with Animaker and Storybird with posts and animations. – Salma H.

Today is my 5th day of work and I’ve caught up with most of my work. I will work hard to finish all of it. So far animating is fun but it takes a long time to finish.
Today we have more work time than usual. And I’m kind of glad because it gives me time to finish the unfinish.
Today I learned about vaping. It was mostly focused on vaping prevention for the youth. I’ve seen my fellow youth smoke and vape before yet it always surprises me when I hear someone talk about it. Some facts I already knew. For example, there is more nicotine in a vape than a pack of cigarettes and that vaping can lead to tobacco use. I just wish there was more ‘evidence’ to prove that vaping is bad. I already think vaping is bad but with so little facts about how its bad for you it makes others skeptical on quitting.
