Halloween Memory In Third Person
One halloween Shaurice left S.P.A to go trick or treating with her mentor Sarah and a close friend named Jessica. They went to all diffrent stores trying to figure out what they wanted to be. They planned for Jessica and Sarah to be football players and Shaurice be the referee. They saw so many costumes they didn't know what they wanted to be. Jessica and Shaurice went around the stores trying on everything they saw while Sarah took pictures. In the end they ended up becoming kitten but they wern't sure what accesories to wear. Shaurice decided for them to wear Tutu's and tigh's with ears that light up. They went home changed into thiere last minute costumes and had a great time racing to the candy.

“The Highwayman” and “Typhoid Fever” Comparison
What both stories characters have in common is risking lives or punishment for the one's they cared for. In “The highwayman” the landlord’s daughter had a choice to be with a robber or obey her father’s orders by not seeing him again. She chose the highwayman and ended up dying for him. While in “The Typhoid Fever” the small boy risks punishment by talking to Patricia because he really liked her and enjoyed the conversations although they were not allowed to talk to each other. It was good that Frankie heard the end of the story because he realizes the harshness in life and that sometimes bad things happen to good people for no reason.

Present Tense Childhood Memory
I’m fifteen years old and I’m hanging with my friends Tierra and DJ. Were in our fifth period class, and it’s so close to school being over. Just when my friend DJ said something that reminded me of a youtube video. I start busting out laughing and she asked me why. I told her there was this video of Indigo Vanity, the girl from the rangers jerking crew, and she AIM-ING, and when she asked him what he was doing he replied “Bickin Back Beating A Bowl Of Bereal.” DJ, Tierra and I could not stop laughing. As I thought about it, I realized what he meant to say was “Kicking back eating a bowl of cereal”. I thought to myself who talk’s like that now and days. I was thinking maybe he was trying to be cool because he’s talking to a famous girl, or maybe that’s just how he was. In the begging I thought he was illiterate.

The Cold Equations
The title of the story is “Cold Equation” and it is written in Third-person limited point of view. The new point of view is being told from Third-Person omniscient. If the story were being told by Marilyn her reaction to dieing would be more detailed. We would know how, she truly feels, and all the stuff that happened in her past. Also, if it were her point of view, she would have thought differently before entering the EDS. Another example of Marylyn’s point of view could have been when she called her brother. We know what happened but only from Barton’s point of view, but she may have been feeling differently about dying.

The Storyteller
I'm on the train I start to get bored. I ask my aunt to tell us a story, as my little sister and little brother gather around. The story isn't even that great, there was so many question's running through my head. My little brother and sister stay asking " Why this, why that". She seemed irritated because she couldn't get us to shut our mouths. In my head I was thinking that this story would never end. Even the random people around me were starting to get bored with this story. My aunt offered some bachelor to come and listen to the story. He decided to tell a new story. His story was so much more intresting than my aunts. It was amazing.

Chilean Miners Rescue
As I read different articles I had many different thoughts going through my head, but the one feeling that hit me every time was staying strong. I say this because in one of the articles said “We had strength, we had spirit, we wanted to fight, we wanted to fight for our families, and that was the greatest thing” says Luis Urzua. Luis Urzua was the 33rd miner to be rescued. The article also stated “In nearby Copiapo, about 3,000 people gathered in the town square, where a huge screen broadcast live footage of the rescue.” I find that very caring that other people from different cities would support such a tragic moment like that. If I were in that situation I think that I would of cried and wanted to be put out of my misery. Everyone who was there to guide them through that horrible situation has a great heart.

Essay Reflection Paragraph
The three things that I like most about my essay was that my fourth paragraph because I feel like I required all of the things that were needed in it. The second thing that I like about me essay was my formatting and writing techniques because the paper demonstrates all standard formatting expectations (heading, title, double-spaced, Times New Roman or Arial font, size 10 or 12 font, and 1” margins). Grade-level writing mechanics are used (complete sentences, proper capitalization, accurate punctuation, correct spelling, and standard grammar).The third thing I loved about my essay was that I finished the fact that it needed to be six paragraphs and I put about seven. What I didn’t like about my essay was that there was much moiré that could have been fixed but I decided not to fix it. For example, my first, second, and third paragraph could have been stronger. What Ms. Priester could do to help me become a better writer is to supervise and question my writing.
