extra credit TASK 1
Write one or more paragraphs describing a super power you would like to have.
I would like to have the power to be able to freeze time. One reason I would like to have this power is because I would never have to be late again. Another reason I would like to have this power is because I can literally do everything on my own time and never have to rush. Lastly I would to have this power because I freeze time if something tragic was about to happen. Overall having the power to control time ultimately means I have control over everything I want.

TASK 1 - Google Doodle Emily Noether
My challenge has to do with photography business. The problem is being paid for events I get booked for. I have worked about 3 events where I either didn't get paid at all or I didn't get the night of the event. For example I worked a party a few weeks back & the party got shut down, so the person who booked me for the party left once the police had arrived & I had lost all contact to him so I wasted my time basically working that event. I figured out a method to avoid encountering this problem in future references. From now on I require people to make a deposit before the event.
