The object that I chose for myself is a family album. My family is from the Dominican Republic, a well known country filled with joyful people. I remember it was summer of 2024 and my mom pulled out a white binder filled with photos. Once I opened it, I instantly saw a very old family photo of when we were in the Dominican Republic at a beach. Inside the binder, I saw pictures of my parents' wedding and way back when they were younger. My mom kept the binder well hidden in her closet inside one of her drawers. The family members that looked at the photos with me were my parents and my brother.    I saw one page of the album but then my dad reminded me I had to go to the park. We had so much fun, it was time to pack up and go home, everyone was super tired. I wasn't tired, I wanted to go home and dive straight into the album. Once we got home, I was really tired and left the album for tomorrow.   When I woke up that morning I brushed my teeth, ate, and went straight into the album. I saw pictures of me trying to learn how to swim, graduation, and old pictures of my siblings too. I always used to use funny filters on snapchat, another photo was at glen island that i took of the sunset. It was really beautiful my family and I were amazed.
