Dickinson uses the metaphor of a funeral to describe her inner struggles. What metaphor would you use to describe your own mind?

 Prompt: Dickinson uses the metaphor of a funeral to describe her inner struggles. What metaphor would you use to describe your own mind?

Response: If I had to describe my own mind as a metaphor, I would say it's like a maze. I compare it to a maze because I know what to do, but I'm unsure what will happen. Like a maze, you know to walk and find a way out but there are unexpected twists and turns. I know the things that I have to do but sometimes there are obstacles that I have to deal with that may come up. My mind can be confusing but I know the right things to do.


Summary: In class we read 2 poems exploring thoughts and internal feelings, which we both analyzed and interpreted. 


Reflection: I reflected on how I can expand my media literacy and different symbolisms.

I was unfortunately stuck spending the majority of the days trying to recover and get better from being sick. On the bright side, I spent the rest of my break traveling to Maryland, and I rode a plane for the first time. First, this year I want to achieve my personal goal of gaining better spending habits by spending less money and saving more. This goal is important to me because I have a bad habit of spending money too quickly, and I want to save money for more expensive things that I want.
