Jordan Scales, Staff Writer
Pronouns: he/him
I am a junior, and this will be my second year on staff. In this class I have learned to ask questions that lead to bigger question.sI enjoy learning about my sources point of view. I view myself as open-minded. This program has allowed me to further understand different perspectives. This helps me as a writer because I don’t give biased opinions. When being a writer and learning to interview people, it is helpful when having conversations with people outside of class. I like to play sports video games like Madden Football, 2k Basketball and MLB The Show to keep me occupied for a while. Also, I am part of the high school’s Concert Choir. I’ve been doing choir since the seventh grade, and I plan to keep on doing it all the way through high school. Music helps me relax. I like listening to a small band called “Wallows,” they give me chill vibes.

Noonan and his team finished first and Noonan got his first gold medal for horseback riding. “I would say [I’m best at] cross country [riding] just because I really enjoy the adrenaline of it. You can definitely feel the high speeds and just it's really a fun part of the sport. I placed individually gold and my team placed gold as well. That was really special seeing all your hard work come through,” Noonan said.](https://pwestpathfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/IMG_0540-2-900x607.jpeg)
![Junior Khalid Abdi, is currently reading the last arc of “Bleach”. He started “Bleach” a couple months ago, and he loved the amount of diversity and speed the manga/anime displayed. “[Bleach] has really good character development and the way the story put more focus on female characters unlike other anime. They have unique personalities and play a role in the story,” Abdi said.](https://pwestpathfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_8074-900x675.jpg)
