tuesday: Prompt: Write about your most special holiday memory.

-

 My most special holiday memory is from last Christmas when my whole family got together at my grandparents' house. We don’t all get to be together very often, so it was nice to have everyone in one place. We had a huge dinner, played games, and exchanged gifts. What made it even better was just being around the people I care about the most. That feeling of togetherness is something I’ll always remember.

Today in class, we answered questions about chapters 8-10 of A Lesson Before Dying. The questions made me think more about the choices the characters are making and how they’re dealing with their situations. It helped me see how their struggles relate to bigger themes like justice and dignity.

I personally hated this assignment because we had to write an essay and answer 25 questions. I don't think I can take this into my future or the real world. My day is going terrible.

Friday: Prompt: Write about a song that brings back a specific memory.

 A song for me that brings specific memory is Hotel California from the Eagles. It brings back memories since my dad would always play it when I was a child. Every time we would go to the pool he would play the song. I still love it to this day. Today in class, we started a project on A Lesson Before Dying, and I focused on studying racial injustice and justice. Looking into racial justice made me think about how unfair things used to be and how people fought to change it. It helped me understand why standing up for what’s right is so important.
