Reflection/ Day 6

Reflection
Today’s reading was quite interesting and entertaining. I never seen the color purple but as we read the letters I grew a connected to Celie. But the story has reached a turning point once we were introduced to Harpo and Sofia. Harpo is a man who has no mind of his own and base his decisions off the intel of others. Sofia is strong minded and gave the story the backbone to justice and fighting back against abuse and other treacherous acts.

Day 6
Today felt strange and uncomfortable. All day I felt a lingering feel of bad energy and couldn’t understand why. I watched my surroundings as the day continues and the cold presents was stil there. I started to get worried but I calmed down so I can prepare for Mr. Rease class. We’re reading the color purple and it is putting me on my toes! I enjoy the movie scene but the book gives me the real connection to the story behind all of them. But enough with class, I found out that I received an offer to Jacksonville State University!! I was excited but this is not the end!

Introduction

    Hello, my name is William Blake.  I am a junior and I attend Ben.C.Rain High School. I have many hobbies/extracurricular activities I enjoy. My favorite hobby has to be JROTC. JROTC has taught me many things that I can use in life and has offered me many opportunities. I am also apart of Ben C. Rain's football team. My coaches have taught me a lot throughout the season and I use what they have taught me and I apply it to my everyday life. My last hobby is being a member of the band. The band is excting, but it is not all about the music, it also teaches discipline and how important teamwork is. My favorite subject is History.  I like playing video games, working out, and hanging out with friends.  My expectations for this year is to: increase my GPA per semester, keep my grades at a A average, and to score a 30 on my ACT. I am excited to see what is the outcome of this school year!
