Write about when you knew something was over...

 I knew my friendship was over with her when she began to get distant. She wouldn't answer my texts or calls like she used to. She didn't even check up on me anymore. She was like a sister to me. Since i never had any siblings, I did get attached. I knew it was bad, but I really valued our relationship. When I felt the energy shift, I braced myself for disappointment. Although I mourned our friendship, I knew I had to get over it.

Write about something that doesn't get better...

 My mother's death feels as though it will never get better. It's still a fresh wound, but I hate waking up sad everyday. Everybody says the first months are the hardest, but I want this feeling of longing to leave. I long for her to knock on my door again and bother me. When she was here, I didn't talk to her a lot, I didn't live with her, but I will never forgive myself for not being more open to her when I had the chance. Maybe it will get better. Maybe I'll heal with time. 

Write about something that was too small/too big...

 When I first tried my dance uniform on, it was too small. I could barely breathe in it. (I did put it on backwards first, but that doesn't matter). After numerous attempts of trying to make it fit, I watched with a teammate. The uniform I had on fit her perfectly, but hers was too big on me. Then, fitting people came in and began to fix all of our uniforms. Mine took a while because it was huge in me. After a couple of alterations, my uniform fit fine. However, it was still a bit tight... 

Write a thank you letter...

Dear my closest friend, 

   

Thank you for always being there for me no matter what. You have stuck around through thick and thin. I really appreciate that. No matter what, I can always count on you. I go to you when I am sad, happy, excited, joyful, and even annoyed. You're my safe place and the only person that I can truly, truly be myself around. When we get older, I hope that we continue our friendship. I never want to lose your loyalty or trust.

                                                                                                 Sincerely, Mira

 Today's class was basically just a mini lesson about hiking. However, it was needed. In the book, Cheryl goes on a long hike in order to think about her life. I personally don't like hiking. Things can get too sweaty, gross, and damp. I just don't like it, nor would I ever try it. I like little walks though. Walking on a small trail or along a creek is nice, even a garden. However, I don't think I could dedicate myself to a full hike. Hiking needs a lot of dedication apparently, and I don't have that for hiking. 

Our Introduction

 My group and I have somewhat gotten our lives together. We have finally figured out how to start our introduction. It should be fine now. We were missing a group member, so when she comes back, we should be okay. The main thing we were confused on it was to type. We can't be opinionated or take sides, so we had to use general information. However, we found that a bit challenging from putting any information that didn't feel like it was taking a side. 

Group Project 3

I liked what we did today. We got to move around and talk to each other. It was very interactive. I had to think a lot because I had to write down what I knew about certain topics. Some of the topics I never sat down and thought about myself, so I really had to put my thinking cap on. For Sex Education in schools, people mainly thought that it needed to be taught more, and that they need to teach it more in schools. We still have to make our introduction. We know what people know and don't know, so we don't have to put anything that the students already know.
