Affirmations of Life

Today I did not have much homework.  The homework that I do have to have finished isn't due until later in the week. I'm glad I can take my time on it and do a good job.  Also, the weather was fantastic today. Being about fifty degrees it was a beautiful day. Along with this beautiful day I had tutoring for the ACT. I'm glad that I have the opportunity to have tutoring for the ACT, because the better score I get the more scolarship money I can get. Today was a good day and I wish all days were like this.

The Truth about Nature

As a kid I used to climb trees almost all the time.  Sometimes I would just sit in a tree for an hour or two and just watch the things that happened around me. It always was interesting to me how everything revolves around something else. Birds depend on the warm weather coming out of winter to make spring happen. And in life things always revolve around others, how things are going in your life, and what you do. Yes, it did alter my way of thinking on how what I do will affect so many other people, if I know them or not. I just changed my attitude on life and how i should approach things.  I'm glad nature could help me to change how I felt and though about things.

Team Edgar or Team Nathaniel?

I personally would choose Edgar. His style is more mysterious and eerie which brings a greater interest to me.  Also, since Edgar had so much death and hard times in his life he could greatly relate between what he wrote and his real life.  Yes, Nathaniel does relate his real life to his stories but I feel it is more prominent with Edgar because he uses such strong words and description.  Overall, the creepiness of Edgar's writings are more interesting and appealing to me.
