 Prompt: If you had to write a poem about your life RIGHT NOW, what would it be about? Explain your answer in at least 4 to 5 sentences. 


If I wrote a poem about my life right now, it would probably be about college and figuring out my future. I think about engineering a lot, but I also really like photography and tech, so it would be about trying to balance both. It would talk about stress from school and wanting to do well, but also being excited about what’s next. It wouldn’t be super deep, just honest about trying to make good choices. Mostly it would be about working hard now so things pay off later.


Today in class, we went over writing a rhetorical thesis, and we worked on our common lit.


Through the common lits I learned today more about how your brain works for social situations and pressures.

A real moment in my life where I felt like it was the beginning of a powerful story is when I started to truly plan my life, what I want to do, and what I can realistically do, and how I can achieve my goals. This felt like a turning point because I gained goals and know what I would like to do. Today in class, we analyzed Dr.King's I Have a dream speach and broke down 1 specific form of rhetoric.
