The Fire Alarm

II.
1. Jennifer
2. She's slow.
3. School at Night.
4. Her ear got damaged.
5. The fire alarm went off.
6. Then the night supervisor came by.
7. The officer finally turned off the alarm.
8. Go to check her ear by a doctor.

III. If I were Jennifer I would have ran away as soon as I heard the fire alarm, although I still would liked to see the fire, but I still would get out as soon as I could from there, and I wouldn't just stay in a room with other people waiting for them to pack their hair-care equipment, I won't asfixiate just because of some stuff. Don't they know something called "self-preservation"? Anyway, I would tell them to get out, even if they must left their hair-care stuff. And if I got my ear damaged anyway, I would go to a hospital.

What do you think about extreme sports?

I find that extreme sports are good for free for when you're stressed because in doing so generate releasing adrenaline and then gives you a very satisfying relaxation. In that sense this type of activity is fun and good, but there is a downside that would be the risk you run when making these types of activities, or also to generate a lot of adrenaline and you haven't good health, will cause trouble, and that would ruin everything, but as a responsible person must go to the doctor and check that all is well in order to do extreme sports.

What historical figure do you most identify with? Why?

I definitely identify more with the Chilean singer Violeta Parra, because it was a very profound to express their feelings and ideas through various art disciplines such as music, painting, weaving, clay, etc., also was a very creative and was a recognizable woman who had a great love for life, was witty and also had a great outlook on life and loved to learn and research different things, but one thing I find most importantly, he defended their rights.
All these characteristics make me feel close and connected to it, because I am a lover of life and relate a lot with music, and generally I relate to her art, to others if I find something unfair, I struggle to get justice. Violeta Parra is for me a great historical figure.

Who's had the biggest influence on your life? Why?

The person who has most influence in my life, would be my mother, because since childhood has taught me much of what I know now, listen to me, giving me advice, support me, comforts me and is also giving me permission . The trouble is that many times discussed, but it helps us to understand and also helps us grow as a person.
I do not know I'd do without my mom, because sometimes you do not realize what you have and do not know value, and in my moments of reflection I wonder, that would be me if she dies, they spend a lot of ideas in my head, but in the end, I mind that she is one of the people you need to have them present in life.
