In “A Worn Path,” Phoenix has a memorable encounter and conversation with the hunter during her journey. Think about a conversation you have had that had a lasting impact on you. What was the conversation about, and how did it change your thinking, perspective, or actions?

 as a kid, every conversation with my father meant something to me. I looked up to him, and I felt as if we never talked a lot. because of that, every conversation I had with him meant that I took something from it. every scolding, reward, or gesture was picked up by me, and that's why I'm the way I am now.

in class, we read through the story, "a worn path"

I think the story was good, and was shocking towards the end.

august 31: Think about the word or phrase you find yourself using the most right now. What is it, what does it mean, and why has it become part of your everyday vocabulary? Explain when you typically use it and what your choice of this word or phrase might reveal about you.

 a word I've been using recently is "majorly". I use it when I want to describe an abundance of an action. for example, I'll say "he's tripping majorly" whenever I think somebody does or says something crazy. the word is funny to me, and I guess that's why it means a lot to me, since it makes me laugh a bit when I say it. the phrase might just mean I like to make myself laugh a lot, which is something true about me. in class, we did a vocabulary lesson. the vocabulary was interesting to me, and I honestly think I'll like learning new words to hopefully use them in my everyday speech.

In Part I of A Rose for Emily, Emily’s house stands out from the community and reflects both her past and the changes happening around her. Think about a house, building, or place that holds special memories for you. What does that place look like, what memories do you connect with it, and what does it represent

  my first house in Norcross holds many memories for me. it was a two story town house that was like every other house in the neighborhood, but it was mine. I had my first dog there, and my first nightmares as a kid. I lost stuff there but I also found new and returning things in my life. it represents my early childhood with how big it felt, yet so small now that I return to visit once in a while. in class we read one part of a story and did some questions on it. the story helped me recall a big part of my life, my childhood. I should reflect on my upbringing, and I have this story to thank for that.
