 Prompt Response : One thing I think I have always been curious about was is some of the myths and made up characters that we see in movies, were or are actually real. I have kind of always been interested in vampires and witches. As a kid I would sometimes act like I was a vampire, thinking about it know its kind of embarrassing but I always come across things on the internet or pictures of body's and mummy's, that look like that are not to old and are maybe preserving. There are always videos and clips of mermaids around the internet but I never want to actually believe that it's true because it seems impossible. Even though it would be nice to know there are other things living on this earth other than boring humans.  Summary : Today in class all we had to do was the blog post and nothing else so I used the time to finish up some studying for my math final and my APUSH final.  Reflection : I  spent my time studying to prepare myself for some finals that may give m...

Prompt Response : One of my most special holiday memories , is maybe when my family went to a trip to Tennesses. It was super cold because it was snowing but It was also super fun, we went ice skating , skiing and did a lot of other activity's. This trip was one of the best trips my family went on because there was no kind of tension so it made it ten times better. I do want to go on another trip like this soon, I hope they plan another one.  Summary : Today we had a sub in class today but the assignment we had was on canvas, reading chapters 8,9 and 10 then after answering some discussion questions that were given with it. Easy assignment today.  Reflection : From today's assignment I learned how to read and answer questions correctly by using my own opinion then tying it into the evidence I got from the text as well. 

 Prompt Response : One of the best gifts I think I received was my mane coon cat, when he was a kitty. I got him last year for Christmas, i asked a mane coon cat that same year for my birthday, but because they are so expensive my mom said no at the time and shes scared of cats so It was most definitely a no at the time. I didn't think to ask again because I felt like the answer would still be no, then she asked me what I wanted for Christmas and I said the same thing I always say clothes, more perfume, shoes. I never ask for too many things on Christmas. Then the day came, I opened all of the presents I had from both my stepdad and my mom, and I was grateful for all of it, then my granddad walked into the house holding a big box. He sat the box in front of me and told me to open it, I was curious about what it was, especially sense my mom was smiling hard. Then I opened it, and I picked up the cutest kitten I have ever seen , I started to tear up because I wasn't expecting to ...

 Prompt Response : One song that I can say that brings me memories back in Buffalo soldier by Bob Marley, I like most of the songs that he has put out, but I can say that this song specifically reminds me of the granddad, he passed this year recently and it's kind of been hard. When I listen to this song it reminds me less of him and the things that he has instilled in me. When we would run errands together, he would always play this song over and over, to the point where I knew it word for word. Knowing that he is gone I play the song more than I did when he was alive. The song is beautiful and it reminds me of all the good things he did in life and why I want to continue to do great things in his name.   Summary : Today in class we didn't really do much, but Mr. Rease did give us time to finish up some work in the presentations we had about A lesson before dying.    Reflection : From today's lesson I can say that it gave me a chance to think critically about w...

 Prompt response : When i was a kid i believed in a lot, but one thing that i believed without a doubt was the tooth fairy. I believed in the tooth fairy more than any other made up character because my teeth were always coming out, every month a new tooth would come out. Then once they came out i would always have either a dollar, coin, or chocolate under my pillow but what made it so Believeable was the little pixie dust that my mom would put on my face and pillow after placing the gift under my pillow. I would love waking up and believing that small fairies are real and they come to homes and give gifts. I would dress up as fairies for Halloween and have fairy toys. I loved the tooth fairy so finding out she wasn't really was one of the craziest things to hear at the age of 8-9.   Summary : I was absent today so I don't know what they did in class but I took this time to finish up 2 slides from my presentation and edit the ones I already finished beforehand. 

 Prompt Response : The only time I can remember when I couldn't stop laughing is when I was at the varsity basketball game and me and my best friend and where making comments about a boy, it's not like we didn't like him but the way he dressed and looked was funny. She made a funny comment and I replied by saying oh yeah he looks like the modernized version of that one rock emoji. As soon as I said that she couldn't stop laughing, and me too as well, it was so funny and people were looking at us because of the way we were laughing but it was way too funny to stop laughing. That time is something I can never forget because her reaction is very unexpected.    Summary : Today we did not really have too much class time we had to go to the auditorium, to meet with our counselors to talk about college and what we want to do in college, after high school.   Reflection : From this lesson i learned more about some colleges that fit me and where i fit in a certain categor...

 Prompt Response : When I was younger i always had a fear of snakes. I never liked to look at them , feel them , be close to them nothing because if i did i would freak out. Screaming, kicking , crying at times if my freak outs would result into my breath hitching to the point where i would start hyperventilating. when i was 14 my mom took me to a small fair , at first i wasn´t expecting to see a huge snake on someone's neck but once i saw it i was terrified. My mom thought it would be a good idea if i went to look at it. Once we got closer to it i wanted to scream but i kept calm. It was barely moving the motions it made towards me and made my skin crawl. She paid the man to let me put it on my neck for 10 mins, i didn´t want to do it but wasting my mom's money wouldn´t have felt any better. So i agreed to put it on, once i did i realized it wasn´t all bad but i was still kind of scared.   Summary : Today in class we were given an assignment to do the lesson before dying...
