"Do not ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." - Howard Thurman

IP 10 - Someone I Admire

This is primarily a writing assignment and will be graded as such.  For this assignment, you will be highlighting someone whom you admire.  This person could be famous, related to you, living or not living, etc.  Choose a high quality photo of this person to include in your blog post if you have access to one.

Please include the following in your writing while you brainstorm this blog post:

- An introductory statement or paragraph to pique the attention and interest of the reader
- The name of the person you admire
- A description of who this person is, their "story" (background information), etc.?
- A description of how you know this person, if applicable.  If this person is a celebrity or someone you don't know personally, describe how you became aware of them.
- The qualities that this person has that you admire, and/or their qualities you wish you could exemplify
- Any significant accomplishments this person has achieved
- (Include any other topics you'd like to write about that are related to the person you admire)

Please note that this post should NOT just be one large paragraph. Structure your writing as you would in an English class, with thoughts flowing from paragraph to paragraph.  The final product should be approximately 3-5 full, well-structured paragraphs.  You will be given at least 2 class periods to complete this assignment.

Happy blogging!
