Long story short: I’m thriving I’m really happy about all of the AP prep we have done in class. So much of the stuff we are doing in class is prep work, but it feels like a normal English class, like how for Fences/Oedipus Rex we prepared for an essay while learning about APA formatting.Continue reading “AP Prep Reflection”

Book Rant!!
(Semester’s Narrative blog) Out of the five fictional narratives we’ve read, I enjoyed Oedipus Rex the most. I have no idea why I enjoyed it so much, but it was the most enjoyable for me to read. I really liked that I had to dig into the writing to understand it, but I didn’t haveContinue reading “Book Rant!!”
Help I Forgot how to Spell Troy
(AKA the Conflict and Complex Relationships blog) Okay to start this off, I have to Rant. I love what Wilson did by naming his characters Troy and Cory, very good symbolism there, but I can’t handle typing both names in the same place. Cory and Troy have too many similar letters in their names forContinue reading “Help I Forgot how to Spell Troy”

Summer Assignment :/

I could easily read my planned 3 chapters a day, and it didn’t physically wound me like “Crime and Punishment” did. It was a great time.The worst part about “HowContinue reading “Summer Assignment :/”
Gettin’ that Cash
Scholarship Essay!!!! I’d like to start by saying I’m very glad I got 100% on this assignment on the first try. I spent a lot of time editing and I’m happy that it paid off. I wasn’t very confident with my rough draft, so I’m glad I cleaned it up enough to get a goodContinue reading “Gettin’ that Cash”
Multiple Choice :/
Meh. So I just want to say that this title is misleading; I really didn’t mind the multiple choice prep, but multiple choice in general is just This unit taught me many test-taking tips that will help me on the AP exam. The part on poetry was the most helpful to me, since I’m terribleContinue reading “Multiple Choice :/”
