My CAS Goals:

• Active goal:

My goal is to create a commodity between my friends and so that we may organize and play to as various sports as possible and as frequently as we can. Obviously, a good balance would like to be in place between our productivity of work and physical activity. Therefore, it would be ideal for us to meet up during the weekends and perhaps during the weekdays when we are not too packed with school work. Some sports that we usually play as a group are basketball, football, badminton, and sometimes we go cycling as a small group. The aim of this goal is to encourage one another to do as much physical activity as possible, which is important for our age. However, creating a commodity and doing sports as a group of friends allows us to socialize as much as possible, which is sometimes lacking with this pandemic and online school.

• Creative goal:

I would like to try to watch and learn from my dad how to cook certain dishes that he cooks for us. Thankfully, he cooks almost every day for us, which gives me a great opportunity to try to learn a few tips and tricks. A great way to start would be by simply watching my dad cook and asking him different questions I have. Hopefully, as I become more experienced and confident in the ingredients and steps needed, I will try to cook those dishes myself so that I can learn from my mistakes and try again in the future. I have chosen to make this my creative goal as it will teach me a future skill that I will definitely need in my life. As well as that, cooking is a form of art and expression which I will be able to use to express myself as an individual.

• Service goal:

We as a family try to compost as much waste and food as we can. However, there are times when we compost certain foods and waste that should not be included or that can cause a negative effect on the compost. A clear example of this is when we first tried composting meat which did not work at all and which attracted different pests. We learned from our mistakes and try our best to not compost any meat and to focus more on the wastes of fruits, vegetables, etc. There are times though when the compost needs to be cleaned up a bit as all the waste can over accumulate. Therefore my goal is to clean and to keep the compost tidy so that no pests are attracted. This is a service not only to myself but my parents as I will reducing the likelihood of attracting animals towards our garden or house. This is also beneficial to my neighbors as no animals or pests will be lured towards their homes due to the compost.
