I am.....
A Beacon student is like a diamond in the rough. A student who is beginning to understand the meaning of responsibility; starts out as punk off the street to show they are not scared of anyone. A Beacon student is someone who eventually gets out of that phase of being a tough boy after becoming familiar with their surroundings at the school. A kid that begins to evolve into a young adult who understands and accepts responsibility for his or her actions. Someone who enjoys life with art and meaning.
A visual student is someone who has a wild imagination. A person who is creative; who sees everything as art where ever they go. Whose imagination flows onto paper as art. Someone who understands the meaning of art. For example, seeing a mural of Big Pun in graffiti, walking in a rainforest and accepting the rainforest as art.
My name is Felix Colón and I am one of those Beacon students who began his freshman year as a punk, and recently began to understand life and the world around me. I now understand the meaning of life and what it means to never give up. Beacon has helped me overcome my insecurities. It has transformed me from a shy awkward kid to a more confident and outgoing young adult.

Felix-
"wit" should be replaced with "with" in your screenwriting journal.

Three paragraphs: I like the idea of the exploration of your family as the theme of your capstone. The opening seems a little random, but I do like the idea of showing your being true to who you are and refusing to change. I think that this will turn out to be a very interesting film.

Three Paragraphs - I think your paragraphs came out awesome! Besides the grammatical errors, I think it might be hard for you to recreate going to Puerto Rico and the dramatic emotions that happened there. I also feel that it doesn't really end. Try to come up with a resolution at the end.

I think your capstone is very intriguing. The only problem I could see happening is what the point of your capstone is about. Is it about the research on your grandfather or is it about what you discovered in Puerto Rico?
