Thinking about "The Rockpile," what is something your parents forbade you from doing when you were growing up? Explain what it was and why they might have set that rule.

 Prompt: When i was a child my mom always told me not to go to my neighbors house. They set that rule because my neighbors house was a very old and creepy house. They had lion statues in the front and you would hear weird sounds coming from the house sometimes. When I was little i was scared of it and would have nightmares about the house eating me. My friends would call me a scary cat because they thought that i was just over dramatic but then we heard a noise come from the house and we all ran away. 

Summary: Today in class we read a short story called "The Rockpile."

Reflection:  Today in class i learned what the rockpile symbolized in the story we read.

Which aspect of creating a poem do you enjoy the most? Tell what it is and explain why

 Prompt: An aspect that I enjoy the most when creating a poem would be of love. I choose it because it sometimes can be the easiest. But i also enjoy writing about love because i myself have had personal experiences as well. Even though i like writing about love or relationship wise i also like to write about other stuff when i want to try something different. Like in this case instead of love when writing my poem i choose to write about dreams. Which is something different then what i usually do.  Summary:  Today in class we started to create our own poems to share with the class.  Reflection  Today in class i learned the requirements needed for the creation of our poem.

You are currently working on a soundtrack for selected Emily Dickinson poems. With that in mind, if asked to choose a song to describe your life right now, which song would you select and why?

 Prompt: A song that I would choose to describe my life would be falling behind by Laufey. I would choose that song because I feel like I can relate to the song a lot. I say that because even if I told everyone I'm not interested in anyone right now I would feel very lonely because I don't really have one really. Like when in the song it mentions, "everyone is falling in love but I'm falling behind." I feel like I can really relate to that part of the song the most.  Summary: Today in class we took the test on Emily Dickinson poetry and finish our song soundtrack.  Reflection: Today in class I learned that I got a 63 on my test today.
