Prompt: Describe a time you felt completely lost.

 A time I felt completely lost was when I was about to take my French final for French 3. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, even though I had been studying for weeks on end and had even hired a tutor. At that time in my education, I hadn't had to actually study or memorize anything. All of my other classes came to me naturally and easily without studying, and I couldn't figure out why I couldn't grasp the subject. Eventually, with the help of my tutor, we figured out that I needed flashcards and to memorize at least half of the formulas/ rules to understand what to do, and by doing that and other practice, I managed to keep my grade in the class above 89.5.

Summary: Today in class, we presented and listened while others presented their parts of the story.

Reflection: Today, I learned about details of the origin myth I wouldn't have thought about, like how the birds that they turned into symbolized freedom.
