    Minecraft Forever Fan Scholarship
    There are many aspects of Minecraft that I love. But my favorite aspect of Minecraft is being able to play with others using multiplayer or split screen. Although there is a lot of nostalgia within the lonely worlds, playing with someone enhances everything in the game. There seems to be so much more to do and explore when you are playing with someone else. Things that once were bland and even frustrating, like struggling to get your first bed, are now exciting and thrilling. Those first few nights without a bed are filled with laughter as you both repeatedly die from a horde of zombies. The common human need to share experiences with others is reflected in the game. There is a sense of loneliness within single-player worlds, which are enjoyable but there are only so many single-player worlds one can play before they start to long for a companion to accompany them. I resonate with these deeply as I still enjoy my alone time, but wish to have more chances to share experiences with others and create joyous memories to make up for all the times I previously spent all alone. So many others feel the same way. The emotions of loneliness and companionship being spread so much throughout the game adds to the reason why so many people, myself included, are drawn to the game. This is why my favorite aspect of Minecraft is multiplayer and split screen instead of all the other wonderful parts of the game.
    Netflix and Scholarships!
    My absolute favorite Netflix series is Dragons: Race to the Edge. It is such an amazing show, I have rewatched it so many times. Along with the amazing plot and storyline, you learn so much more about the characters' personalities and see so much character growth. New friendships and allies sprout, and the most ruthless villains have a change of heart. The dragon riders learn from their mistakes and experiences in the great beyond. Throughout the show you see Astrid start to share her emotions and become a very dependable friend to all of the other riders. Although she is still an incredibly tough warrior, she has begun to reveal more of her soft side. She is always there for the other riders, even if they have done something to upset her. Throughout the show, Fishlegs begins to show a lot more courage and learns how to stand up for himself. It is visible to the viewer that Fishlegs pushes aside his fear to do what is right for the dragon riders and the local dragons. He becomes a better leader as he learns to put his foot down and no longer allow others to run all over him. Throughout the show, Ruffnut grows even more loyal and sticks up for others. Numerous times Ruffnut was ready to die for the other riders and advised them not to rescue her if it meant putting themselves in danger. She always sticks up for the other riders when they are put down, especially her twin brother Tuffnut. And she is never afraid to make a rider aware when they have wronged another rider or continue to have a lack of respect for others. Throughout the show, Tuffnut learns what is truly valuable to him. He finds out that he values the success and happiness of the riders and values the mission over his most prized possession. Throughout the show, Snotlout realizes that what his dad wants him to be might not be right for him. He decides that whatever he decides to do in the future will be what he wants, and will not be dictated and influenced by what his dad says. Throughout the show, Hiccup learns how to have a good work-life balance. Several times he has let the mission or conflict with the hunters get in the way of his relationship, friendships, well-being, and safety. The other riders helped show him the importance of a balanced life, and not to push him and the riders too hard. The dragon riders explore so much in Dragons: Race to the Edge. How to Train Your Dragon fans will fall in love with this show as they learn more about their favorite characters.
