For most of you, yesterday you took the SAT. If you did not, you will take it before you leave high school. What is your desired SAT score? Identify your top three colleges and explain why each school appeals to you.

 Prompt Response: My ideal SAT score would be anything at or above a 1350. UGA, the college I am most intrigued with, requires a minimum score of 1300-1450 for first-year applicants. I like this school because it has a very good student-campus life, and the scenery is great. I also know a good handful of people who go there, so fitting in and gaining connections would be an easy task. Another school that I am interested in is Georgia Southern. Both of my parents went there, and it's only an hour away from one of my favorite beaches -- Tybee Island.

Summary: Today I was absent.

Reflection: Today I learned it is better to not be so nervous in intense situations, because it will ultimately improve your personal ability.

  Prompt Response:  I think the most challenging part of the annotated bibliography was the evaluation. I think this was because I was trying to avoid saying the same thing for each paragraph and source, though I had the same reason for almost all of them. That is what made this challenging for me personally. Summary: Today we started our Writeable sourcing assignment for our research essay. Reflection:  Today I learned that I struggle with simple things.

In “Birches,” Robert Frost celebrates imagination as a way to escape life’s difficulties and reconnect with innocence. The speaker wishes to “get away from earth awhile” but also understands that he must eventually return to reality. Think about the role of imagination in your own life. How does imagination help you cope with challenges, boredom, or stress?

  Prompt Response:  Recently, I have found myself trying to expand my imagination. I have grown up being told what to think and what to believe that I now struggle to form my own thoughts, opinions, or creative ideas. I have been trying to expose myself to other forms of art and other's ideas in hopes to broaden my horizons, and overall, my ideas. I believe that the right imagination is the true key to staying young at heart as your body grows old. Summary: Today we read the poem "Birches" by Robert Frost and analyzed it.
