Prompt: What is the most creative thing you have ever made? Share what it was and explain why it stands out as your best work.

Prompt Response: The most creative thing I have ever made is my dad's father's day gifts. Every year since I could not even walk, I have created a hand print for him. The gifts are an accumulation of my hand since I was little to the age I am now. This gift is my best work for a couple reasons. First, it is a personal and thoughtful gift that I make my own every year. Second, I have made the gifts colors different every single year. This year instead of having a blue hand print like last year, I made the hand print purple and sparkly. Overall, this is for sure my best work because every year it makes my dad's day better. 

Summary: Today in class we read "A Korean dream" by Sharon Lee. After we read, we dug deeper into her cultural identity and created our own poems about our cultural identity. 

Reflection: I enjoyed today's class and I think learning about peoples culture and how expectations can affect them is really important. I think everyone should be able to create their own identity, even if people try to force one on them.

Prompt :  What would you do: tell your friend to confess, tell their partner yourself, or stay quiet? Explain your choice, using ideas about loyalty and consequences from  Fences .  Prompt Response:  I have been through a situation like this before. My friend was cheating every weekend and her boyfriend knew but had no proof. I really liked my friend but it got to the point where I felt bad for her boyfriend. I eventually told him because she did not even want to be in a relationship but I still felt bad. I think that if she had cheated once but wanted to change I would have never told, but It was an ongoing situation. Summary: In class we read more but I had to leave early. Reflection: I am still really intrigued by this book and I think it shows real standards in real life.

Prompt: Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you.

Prompt: Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you.  Prompt Response:  When I was at my family's friends house I was playing hide and seek with my two friends. During this time their dad was around a lot and did not live in Vegas at this time. A few years later his wife divorced him and now he lives in Vegas. But, one day my friends and I were all hanging out and he came down. When I was younger my ears were more out and bigger. He said that my ears made me look like a monkey. And then my friends decided it was funny and started saying it too. I think that a father should not be making jokes about his daughters friends, but he did anyways. Now, since then I always want to cover my ears and not make them noticeable. I have realized that I have grown and they are not as out and as big, but I still feel like that little kid. I feel like my ears are always out and I do not want people to see them.  Summary: In class we presented our posters. My poster wa...
