Write about something that you believed as a child.

 One thing that I believed as a child, was that wishes really would come through, especially at Disney World. Our family was very lucky, because my father's company was a corporate sponsor of Disney, so we would get free travel there multiple times a year. Because of this, Disney felt like a second home to me growing up. I have distinct memories of seeing the parades, meeting the characters, and especially making wishes at the wishing well. I know now that the wishes for unlimited candy, to have magic powers, or to never leave the park were all never going to happen, but I do believe that by wishing, I made my trips better, and still to this day I always make a wish at the wishing well that my trip will continue to get better and better. 

Today in class, they read more of The Color Purple, then took a group quiz. I am still home with food poisoning, but I am hoping to be back for the full day on Friday. I am very sad because after working so hard all semester to reduce my absences, I have to take all of my finals now, just because I ate some really bad pasta.

Write about a feeling that took you by surprise.

 One feeling that took me surprise was at the end of my first ever show. I was in Winnie The Pooh in 6th grade and I had my closing night. Going into it I thought I would be excited like I am at the end of most shows, but instead I cried. I didn’t expect to do this, but I ugly cried. Not like a nice simple tear, but an ugly balling cry. Still to this day, whenever I finish a show I do this, so if anyone wants to see me cry, come to closing night of Matilda. Today in class we learned about how in Indian culture people defecate on the ground and how it is a large health concern. I was not aware that this was an issue, so now I feel more educated, and more grateful for the clean water we have.

Write about a time you didn’t feel like yourself.

 One time that I did not feel like myself was last year. I was trying new medications, and I was on one that was really bad for me. I lost who I was and the side effects were scary. Thankfully, I am on better medications now and I have found myself again, and I hopefully will never get to the place I was in last year again.  Today in class we read more of the Color Purple independently, and we answered questions about them. I enjoyed that we were able to read on our own, because I was able to move at my own pace. I am excited to see what happens next in the book.

Write About A Place You Never Wanted To Leave

 I never want to leave my vacations, but the one that comes to top of mind is my most recent trip to New York City. To me, NYC is comforting. I know that may sound ironic, because it is known as the city that never sleeps, but I find such relaxation in that. I feel so simple and relaxed when I am in New York. One specific example of this was on my last day when we visited Central Park. I found a tree, put my air pods in, and read underneath it. It sounds so simple, but it is a memory I think so fondly of. I was fighting a cold, so sitting and relaxing was very helpful and important.  Today in class we had an introduction to Indian culture, specifically the head wobbles and the fact that they eat with their hands. I always enjoy learning about other cultures, but this is not something I will try in my day-to-day life.
