Write about an adventure you would like to go on.

 Response: One adventure I would like to go on is a trip across western America. I would love to go and visit all the national parks along the west coast and see all the sights. I would go everywhere from crowded LA to rural Oregon. I think I would make it one long road trip, maybe get a camper van and bring a friend. I find exploring different places so much fun and really thrilling and I would love to dedicate a year to just pure travelling.

Summary: Today we took a test and worked on identifying theme.

Reflection: I think this test taught me to find and analyze patterns. It also taught me that I should probably study things even if I don't think we will be graded on it.

How do you find time to enjoy your day, even when you have a lot going on? Write about at least three specific things you do to enjoy small moments throughout your day

 Response: When I have a lot going on I find time to enjoy my day in the small transitions of time like in the mornings or before bed and such. One thing I do to enjoy my everyday is by treasuring the time I get with my friends, they are a main source of joy, especially during school whenever I see them. Second I take a long shower every day, I find that after Ive been really stressed a good shower at the end of the day always makes me feel better. Lastly, I listen to music whenever I can, I find it really relaxing and makes me feel more in control of my life. Summary: We finished our Ambush paragraph. Reflection: I thought this was a really challenging practice. I was able to grow my skills at argumentative writing and taking a more clear stance on things.

In “I, Too,” the speaker expresses pride in his identity and his rightful place in America. Reflect on your own life: What aspect of your cultural identity are you most proud of, and why?

 Response: I am culturally queer and my favorite part of being queer is probably how connected our community is. As the LGBTQIA+ community has been a pretty repressed minority for a long time we have had to create our own community and connection. I have met so many lovely queer people that I have been able to meet and relate to. A lot of my very close friends are also queer and we have formed a small community within lakeside that really makes the world feel a lot more safe and kind. Summary: We worked on Dissect the We worksheet. Reflection: I found the work a bit difficult which honestly really helped me. The pager had me really thinking about the poem more thoughtfully than before.

Write about a time when you realized you needed to look out for yourself in a silly or harmless situation—maybe dodging a pop quiz, escaping a group chat argument, or remembering at the last second to submit an assignment. How did choosing wisely make your life easier?

 Response: Once when I was talking to my dad about the new Superman movie. He had talked about wanting to watch other DC movies like The Batman 2022 together. I had been thinking of watching it and really was looking forward to it. I didn't really want to watch it with him because he had talked and complained through the Superman movie while I was trying to enjoy it. I knew if I said I didn't want to watch it with me he'd be upset and complain more. So I decided just to brush it off and pretend I wasn't super interested in it in hopes he'd drop it. Just ending the conversation was probably a good move because I didn't want to get him upset but I also wasnt eager to watch The Batman with him so it did help de-escalate a potential argument. Summary: We finished reading The Life You Save May Be Your Own. Reflection: I found the story really interesting and the video we watched, aside from the abelism, was pretty helpful to visualize the story I guess.
