 Today in class we learned more about figuring out the themes and the deeper meanings of quotes from Emma Dicksons poems and did a lot of them just review really, nothing new just reviewing for the test tomorrow.

 Today in class we read 2 poems, one called “Heart, we will forget him” and one about being successful and had to make a connection on how we’ve got over a heartbreak and how we were able to succeed in something.

 Today we used our rough draft to finish the story completely to turn in Tomorrow, we have t watched a short film for around 3 days but most likely on Monday it’ll be regular short films every day.

 Today in class for our first assignment we have to write an origin myth and for today we got our characters, plot, theme, rising actions, climax, falling actions, and ending

 Today in class we built a character/minor character and this is my story.

 Today in class we watched a short film about this custodian that had a hard attack and relived his life in three minutes. The story to me means that you shouldn't take life for granted, you can lose it at any moment. I also think that it can show that everybody has a story, when he was reliving his life it showed his wife leaving him because he became a drunk after he was in the war, he went through a lot and people rarely noticed him. I feel that the moral of the story is that life is too short to live and think about the past, live in the moment, live your life to the fullest.
