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.

My digital camera is also important so that I can still have a hobby and so I can make money by taking photos for people. The hardest thing for me to leave behind would be my bedroom. My bedroom is highly decorated and has been a safe place for me for years so it would be hard to miss that comfort and seeing all of my interest in one room.  Summary:  In class we did an assignment on Writable over ...

Write about something you’ve outgrown but still miss.

  Prompt:  Write about something you’ve outgrown but still miss. Response: Something that I've outgrown but still miss was having Kona Ice trucks come to school. Back in elementary school through 6th grade, I remember having Kona Ice trucks come and visit our school to sell snow cones. They would typically come to our school during events like field day. Whenever they came around, it was a big deal among students. I loved the snow cones and thinking back on it, it was very nostalgic and memorable for me.  Summary: We worked on an assignment about a poem from Langston Hughes. Reflection: I reflected on the different civil liberties used today.
