Prompt Response: I have been watching the show suits for a while now, and It has made me feel like New York is a very lawyer centered place. The whole show is about this group of lawyers that own the "best" law firm in the city. Although they think they are the best, there is also many more law firms throughout the city. When I visited New York It was hard to spot the differences between buildings and it did not really feel like a big law city.

Summary: I enjoyed getting into groups today and figuring out what movies to look into for our project

Reflection: I am very happy it's Friday and I hope to have a good weekend.

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.

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...
