Reflection/Day 7/ Literary 3x3

Reflection 
Today’s reading changed my perception of Suge Avery. Throughout the the novel Celie idolized Suge Avery, but Celie’s first encounter with Suge did not go as expected. Suge Avery is blunt, care free, and empowering. I also finally saw a connection between Celie and Mr__ over Suge Avery, someone who they both cared about. This showed readers how people can come together and work together despite the past. The reading also taught me that not all “good people” are good people. The church belittled Suge but the church is a place of imperfect people. 



Day 7
Today was senior portrait day and I was so excited. I can’t believe that I am graduating high school, this was only a dream at one point in life and I am excited to see where my life goes after May. Also I will NEVER eat Burger King’s breakfast. It was worst than the cafeteria food from my freshman year! I had the ultimate platter and regret every dime I spent on that slop they called food. But I got my haircut and my waves are looking amazing. I’m proud of myself and can’t wait to see how they look at prom. But that’s my day.

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!
