Great Experience

  The writing center is a great place with the ideal learning environment.  My experience with the writing center was a excellent one.  I meet a new friend, I enjoyed working on my paper with them, which just added to my opinion to the writing center.  I really like Mrs. Spaht, who is also my study hall teacher.  All, adding up to my great experience in the writing center.

  All of the things I mentioned were great, however the best part of the writing center is that I got my paper done in the most fun way possible.  I liked, the people, the atmosphere, got the assignment done for english, and got the requirement of one visit to the writing center done.  Many people are probably at first not fond of the writing center, because they think "oh I need help" but it is really a great place.  There is probably no other school you can get the one on one student help, which is really worth it.  Overall the writing center is a wonderful place and I recommend any one to visit.

Best Part of my Day!

  There are many things that I love and strive for to see in my life.  I really enjoy seeing and talking to my parents.  I only like this if it is a good conversation and or in a good mood.  Not when they are in "one of those days mood," however I am glad to help.  I also enjoy the day in class when it is a laid back class, today in English we had a day like that, which made my day.  Another factor that makes my day is when you have cookies at lunch, I really like sweet treats so that just adds to my day.  Those are just a few of the things that I enjoy in my day.

  Another thing, I really like the day when you are with your best friend the whole day.  It makes you feel special, and double win, you bond.  My absolute favorite thing that makes my day is when you have a great meal at lunch and there is no drama that you are involved in.  One of my favorite meals at lunch is when we have papa johns pizza, canes, and eggplant parmesan, yum.  Those days are truly the best days.    Fortunately, a lot of things make my day, therefore I have a lot of good days!

Personal Questions

I could not decide on what question I was going to do, so I have picked a few.

1.) How can I make myself a better reader/writer?

2.) What do all books have in common?

3.) What type of style do I have when it comes to reading and writing?

Your Lord of The Flies Character

If you were in Lord of The Flies, what character would you be and why?

     I would probably be Simon or Piggy, but mostly Simon.  I would be Simon for many reasons.  One is that I love nature too.  In the scene where he is in the "cabin" of creepers reminded me of luscious green camp where we spend our time mostly outside.  I love animals and nature.  I also like people but need my own space.  I would need time for me which is why he is in the creeper "cabin" in the first place.  Simon wants time for himself at his own special place.  

     Third one of the main reasons Simon helps people build the shelters and anything other needed.  I would also help with making the shelters and other jobs.  THis is because I am living in the shelters and would want to be secure and safe just like everybody else.  THis makes Simon and me alike and different because I like nature, helping, and mown space, however I am sometimes selfish too.  Overall I would be Simon if I was in Lord of The Flies.
