Write about something that you believed as a child.

Response: When I was a child, I fully believed ASAP Rocky and Travis Scott were the same person. I've always had a hard time remembering both faces and names. I'd mix up real people with fictional people and vice versa. I thought the same about Nicki Minaj and Cardi B. I'd also confidently talk about these people despite not being able to differentiate between them.

Summary: I was out sick and unable to get the information about what we did in class before posting.

Reflection: Missing because I wasn't in class.

Think about the word or phrase you find yourself using the most right now. What is it, what does it mean, and why has it become part of your everyday vocabulary? Explain when you typically use it and what your choice of this word or phrase might reveal about you.

Response: A word I've found myself using the most lately is "overly." I use it to emphasize certain elements when I'm telling a story. I simply like the way It sounds and the drama it can add to a scene so I end up using it often. I don't think my word choice reveals a lot about my character in this sense. However it may show my dramatic personality and love for eventful storytelling. Summary: Today in class we learned and reviewed some vocab from an exercise book.   Reflection: Expanding our vocabulary can make us better writers so we're not constantly repeating words and phrases. It could also be helpful on exams such as the SAT where we're being tested on our personal lexicons.

How has living in or around Atlanta influenced the way you see your community, culture, or identity? If you were speaking to someone unfamiliar with Atlanta, what would you want them to understand about your community?

Response: Living in Atlanta has really showed me how different people's lives can be when they live so close together. Lakeside and its surrounding neighborhoods are situated in a nice quiet suburban type of area however you could drive less than 15 minutes and be in a bustling city. Atlanta is also one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse cities I've been to as its full of a lot of minorities including immigrants. It's taught me to be open to listening to other's life experiences but also not take one person's story as fact. If someone was unfamiliar with out city I'd want them to know it's full of close knit communities and the people love going out and having fun but will also be there for each other.  Summary: Today, we listened to and analyzed K eisha Lance Bottoms' s speech as mayor after the BLM protests had turned into riots that were destroying the city, seeing how she used the rhetorical appeals and situations to appeal to the communit...

What is the most creative thing you have ever made? Share what it was and explain why it stands out as your best work.

Response:  The most creative things I've ever made was a walk in art installation a couple years ago. The idea behind it was the progression of man. As you walked through the room pieces of mirrors dangling from the walls reflected small pieces of you to see. Once you made it past the first wall an afterimage of you was projected onto the wall like a colored shadow. Passing each wall left an image of you on it and as you're about to exit you can see almost all your images and how your position changed as moved throughout the room. This stands out to me as my best work because of the scale of it. It was such a large room and took a long time to get all the pieces together including setting up the system to project the after images all throughout. Summary: Today in class we listened to and pulled out the rhetorical situation from Trump's speech about border control analyzing both his tone and the methods of persuasion he used.  Reflection: Analyzing the rhetorical situation h...
