 One rule our school has that I think should change is how strict they can be on going to the bathroom. I can't go to the bathroom during transition, the first and last ten minutes of class, and while the teacher is giving a lesson. This needs to change because last thursday I got my period and every single bathroom was locked. I asked multiple teachers if they could unlock one because it was an emergency and I just got yelled at. I ended up having to checkout during my fourth period because i bled through my pants. Another reason I think this should change is because we are kept in class all day. There is no way people won't have to use the bathroom.  Summary and reflection: absent/sick!

 Someone challenged me when my friend and I disagreed over a math problem and who was right. I defended myself by doing the problem again and explained how to do it. She changed her mind when she watched how I solved the equation. Today in class we learned about arguments and how to use logos pathos and ethos to argue efficiently. It was cool to learn about this because my mom teaches american lit so she yaps about this stuff a lot. 

Someone's words had a lasting impact on me when my friend sophia told me I was beautiful. It made me feel happy and now she is my friend. She cured my issues with self confidence.  Summary: Today we just did our blog posts Reflection: i'm glad we had time to complete this, especially since i'm falling behind on my work

 One time I had to write a poem for class in middle school. It was blackout poetry so it was pretty easy. It was supposed to be halloween themed os i tried to make mine about witches, so it was hard to find something to use to black out.  summary: today we read Constantly Risking Absurdity Reflection: It was interesting to see how much more i understood after re-reading it. 

 Someone who made a positive impact on my life is my mom. She raised me to put mental health first, always stay kind, and love everyone. I've always looked up to her and wanted to be as hardworking as she is. She's a collage english professor, so we used to always read together and she taught me a lot about the english language! Summary: checked out Reflection: Checked out

I think that he is faking it. I don't trust him because it's hard to believe he did so many things. He seems nice enough, the stories just don't make sense to me. I think he uses his broke. arm to make people trust him more.  In class today we read a story and filled out a character chart.  It was cool to learn about O Connor, because I did a project on her a few years ago. It was cool to see what I remembered.
