10-26-25 Describe a time you couldn’t stop laughing

 A time I couldn't stop laughing is also one of my core memories. When I was a wrestler, on a random day of practice me my friend and I were making fun of my other friend's haircut. I said, "Dam,n your barber must have been having a bad day and took it out on you." One of my teammates overheard it and started laughing. His laugh was so funny and different, it made us all laugh for a good 1 minute straight.

10-23-25 In "The Lamb" and "The Tyger", both poems suggest that beauty and danger can come from the same source. Describe a time when something or someone you admired also scared or challenged you. How did that experience change the way you see the world or the idea of “goodness”?

 When I first started to love a girl, I was around 12. It excited me, it felt good, but it also put pressure on me that I never knew I would have to face in a relationship, or at least while being young and naive. The good was the feelings from her, but the bad was the anxiety that came with it.

 My parents told me my birth was the easiest one of my 4 siblings. She said during her pregnancy, I rarely gave her pains or nausea. During birth, I came out fairly quick, I think the quickest in my family. Today in class, we read a poem about childbirth.

9-30-25 Write about a conversation that changed you.

 A conversation that changed me was a conversation I had with my parents about their expectations for me. They expect me to become a provider man by the time I'm 18. It made me realize I wasn't going to be a little boy at the time receiving that talk.

9-29-25 Write about something that you believed as a child.

 Something I believed in as a child was that Santa Claus was real. I truly believed nothing could convince me otherwise that he was real. Today we read more pages on the story, and today I was a reader I read as Cory.

9-26-25 Troy’s complaint about the unfair job system shows his frustration with racial discrimination. How did this conversation make you think about fairness and opportunity in society today? If you were in Troy’s position, what would you do?

 If I were in Troy's position, I would do the exact same things he did. He was trying to help his son get on the right path, and I believe that is the only right thing to do. Rose's role as a mother shows the stereotypical standards a mother must meet, and she plays the stabilizer in the family. Troy makes it clear to Correy he must be a man and prioritize his priorities always first.
