What I learned English 10 Second Quarter

I've learned lots of things this quarter. I believe that everything I learn and try hard in will benifit me in the future. I choose to learn and be cooperative through out my English 10 quarter. I've learned how to compare themes, Irony and Ambiguity, and lot's of vocbaulary words. I've learned plenty of things starting as a freshmen in Ms. Priester's classroom. Unfortunately, the class of 2013 will not have her class next year.

Shop 'til You Drop

I was so excited for this special event. I took pictures with my house and then some with a couple friends. I super stoked when I found out that everybody got ipods. Mine was blue but I wasn't very interested in that color so I traded Nora for her pink one. I didn't get any clothes because they were sort of last choice clothes. There was a raffel that I was hopoing to win but didn't and I was kind of disappointed. Overall I enjoyed the time I spent with the friends of San Pasqual. I was very grateful.

Lamb to Slaughter

If I was a detective investigating the murder of Patrick Maloney in “Lamb to Slaughter” .Roald Dahl, I would have been more focused on who killed him and trying my best to figure out who killed him. In the story the story I feel like the detectives were only worried about the death of Patrick Maloney when the first found out he was killed. In the real world a detective would have token Mrs. Maloney into custody and ask plenty of questions, they would have inspected the body, and trace all finger prints. I would have done everything a good detective would do. I would have been a hardcore detective, and I wouldn’t have stopped until I solved the mystery.

Lamb to the Slaughter

At the end of "Lamb to Slaughter"by Roald Dahl, Mary Maloney begins giggling because she knows that when the detective said " I bet the evidence is right under our noses" because they were eating the evidence.  She could have also been giggling because her plan work out perfectly. Also, she got away with murder. After the police leave Mary's house I predict she will go up to her room and tell her self how brilliant she is and so much more.

Situational Irony in My life

The most memorable Irony in my life that I find funny was about playing basketball. As a young girl my grandmother always wanted me to join school activities. She thought basketball was a great sport for me, but I found cheerleading more intresting. I thought that basketball was more of a guy sport and girls didn't look good playing it. I told myself I wouldn't play basketball because it wasn't for me. Now I'm 15 years old and I play for San Pasqual Academy Lady dragons. I focus on basketball to keep me out of trouble and when I'm bored because its something I now enjoy that I never thought I would see myself doing.
