On January 27, 2021, I published my final Participation in Government project to Medium. Not only did I really want to (because I felt it was extremely important), but I also felt it was the right time to encourage the people behind me–the Juniors and Sophomores–at my high school to get out and vote when their time came.
Now, in 2026, with what’s happening in our country right now–especially following the killings of American citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti–it felt even more important to republish elsewhere. So I am.
This is the final project from Government that I submitted to my beloved homeroom & Government teacher, Mr. Bova. It is as it was found in 2021, links and all (so keep in mind: information shared, including those links, might be incorrect and/or broken five years later.)
My message to you now, five years later, is simple: Register to vote. Keep protesting. Keep peacefuly yelling at the rooftops to anyone who will listen about the injustices happening right now. Keep. At. It. We ALL have rights under The Constitution of this country for a reason, regardless of what ANY administration says.

✴︎ Months in Pictures

Last month, I said there would be a prince and a goddess. I wasn’t lying. In November, I went back home to Albany–saw the goddess herself, Halsey, in concert at Back to Badlands – Boston Night 1, and the very next day picked up my prince Beauregard and brought him home. So, as promised:
Absolutely surreal experience. Forever grateful. Truly. (More from the concert can be found here, as I process all the RAWs I took.) 
He was actually really chill about the airports! Ended up flirting with the airline employees and some of the people in the airport, especially in DC, haha. 
Elegance! 
Yep, that’s a prince! 
GALAXYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! That’s all for this month. See you in December! Glad I have my kitty once more 🙂
