Today I spent 2 hours after school working on wrapping presents for some children who may not have gotten presents otherwise. In particular I wrapped some presents for a 17 year old boy that goes to my school. All he asked for were some pants, jacket, soap, lotion, and headphones. Mostly necessities which I definitely take for granted. This opened my mind to be more considerate of my peers home-life situations at school. In this case I used the IB traits of caring and open-mindedness. I wrapped presents with the NHS organization I am in at my high school. I hope these gifts make this boys Christmas and life a little better and cheerier. This Christmas being my last one at home I am becoming much more thankful for everything I have.
