Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving was a little different then they normally are. Half our family was gone on vacation so my Nana hosted this year. We normally have 11 people over this year there was only six of us. I was a Little disapointed at first but it turned out to be one of my favorite thanksgiving, because everyone stuck around to play games and to clean. There wasn't any who was grumpy and not willing to help. It was smooth sailing and a very enjoyable time, even though I was sick.

presentations

I really enjoyed watching the different genre presentations. It was very interesting to learn all about the different genres. I really enjoyed the tattoo presentation because she told us how they started off to what they mean today. I really liked how she used her own personal tattoos as an example. I thought it was very interesting what they were and what they meant to her. I also like to have tattoos that mean something to me even if I have to explain what they are.

extra credit

When I went to see the play Osage Count, I  was very torn on weather or not I liked the play or not. I thought the the story line was very well written and I liked all the themes. The only negative thing I have to say about the play was all the yelling throughout the whole play seemed unnecessary. This play was about a disoriented family with a lot of different problems that ranged from drug addiction to being in love with your brother. I would probably not go see this play again because it touched different topics that i was uncomfortable with. But all in all it was a good play.  

Halloween

Halloween this year was very interesting. I had a lot of fun dressing up and going out with my new friends I have made up here. But I was also sad that i missed all of my family/church traditions this year. This year I didn't get to carve a pumpkin with my brother or to decorate the house with all our Halloween decorations. I also didn't get to take the church kids around trick or treating bu t the saddest part about that was I didn't get to get candy either. Even though I had a lot of fun for Halloween there was a part of me that wished I didn't have to miss the events back home too.

Fairy Tale

For me writing my fairy tale was fun but difficult at the same time. I was sitting in my room for the longest time trying to figure out what object I should use to form my fairy tale around. I took a break from thinking about it so I went to wash  my face but i couldn't find my hair tie to tie my hair back, and i was wishing to myself that my hair tie would magically find me. Once i found it washed my face and sat back down to write my fairy tale I used my hair tie as my object to base my story around.
