Prompt: Many holidays center around traditions. Describe one tradition that is important to you or your family and explain why it still matters (or why it no longer does).

Response: One tradition that my family has is to visit family during the holidays. Usually during holidays, we go and visit my step grandma in North Carolina. Occasionally, when we aren't travelling, we'll have my oldest sister over and have a small gathering instead. There have been times that we've had family over at our house, but the majority of the time we are travelling. I think this is an important tradition because it keeps the family connected and allows us to catch up with others.


Summary: In class we worked on our blog posts for this week. 


Reflection: I thought about what I'll be doing when I visit family for Christmas.

If you had to simplify your life and keep only a few important possessions, what would you keep and why? What would be hardest to leave behind? Response: If I had to keep only a few important possessions would keep my makeup, phone, and my digital camera. I would want to keep my makeup because I still want to look nice wherever it is that I go. I would also take my phone with me in case of emergencies and so that I can use CashApp for money. 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.
