Makayla wants to be an architect that designs modern buildings. This work requires her to work well with groups of people on projects as well as spend time alone designing the buildings. The time that she spends alone is important because that is when she does all of her CREATIVE thinking.
Architecture is a profession that requires creativity because it is an important skill to have as you'll have to draw building plans.. Therefore, Makayla would mainly be more creative when she's alone than with a group of people.
Of the opening sentences that were presented here that strongly engages the reader and provides context to them would be the second one which is "We could have had a worse weekend, but it's awfully hard to beat Bigfoot and bugs."
The first and third one were just not good enough because it exposes the rest of the context to the reader and lets them have the idea of what you are talking about which usually leads to the readers not choosing to continue to read, thus taking out the reader's engagement but still provides context. The last one is better than the first and third, but it spilled the beans when it mentioned the particulars as to what made the weekend bad to worse. The answer is just right. It has the impact that would hook the reader to know more about your weekend and why is Bigfoot and bugs together in your statement. The rain wasn't mentioned which would be ideal to make the story telling take a turn to much worse which would spike up the interest of the reader.
