Behold: geat expectations

When Pip says this, he refers to all the good and bad things and experiences that occured in that one day. From high to low, thick to thin, small to large, Pip encountered very good things but also very bad things hence when Pip says the "flowers" part of the quote he means all the good things, and when he says the "thorns" part he refers to all the bad things that can happen.
A day I can relate to this is one day, everything had been going good. I was doing good at activities, having fun and I felt great. Then... that night, when I was at a party with my friends, at centenial, it happened. I was running on this ledge when all of a sudden i smashed my head into the slowing descending ceiling. I ended up with three staples in my head and an everlasting scar.

essay

yo, Walker and Sam, this is a shout out to my homies.
for my first concrete detail, I wrote how reverend Chasuble and miss Prism both have seroius jobs that there is no horse play in so people expect them to be all formal (social standard). for the commentary I wrote when Cecily tries to invite Chasuble on a walk with miss Prism but she says she has to teach. For how their true love prevails is how Chasuble still flirts by saying he would hang on to every worrd of her lips then tries covering it up for it by saing it was a metaphor.
For the second cooncrete detail, i stated how both Chasuble and Prism are of working class citizens and are not super rich to have enough money to do whatever they wish. Commentary for this was how Chhasuble and Prism walk and Prism talks about how working men shouldnt be single and how there are regulations but for the rich, they have all the money to do whatever they wish. Also i stated that jsut becasue they arent rich, it dooesnt mean they cant flirt and still be happy together despite the social expectations. The third concrete detail was how Chasuble and Prism arent expected to be together and like eachother because they are both sincere and rather "squares". Commentary consisted of when Prism chatises Jack's bunburying friend for living onlu for pleasure and Chasuble wants only to christen and read sermons showing how they are both all business and think bad of "fun". How their love prevails is how they still keep making little flirtatious moves to keep the fire going. yupppp basically that is what i got

behold the resol

This year, my resolution is to be a climbing resolution where I will set goals and achieve them. This goal goes through out the whole year not just a sports season. Currently, I am weak and need training but over time i will achieve my goals. Right now I am at a stage known as a V5 climber. The V is a rating sytem. The pros climb V15. My goal is 2 V7's by the end of the year as well as 5 V6's.
To achieve these goals i will be going into the climbing ggym downtown 4-5 times a week to improve strength and endurance as well as technique and balance. My training will include pull-ups lock-offs and other work outs to increase strength etc. As next october, november, and december appoach many competitions will come up that I will enter. This will be a good way to gauge how far I've come along. In conclusion I must send V6's and V7's

I watched Amanda Fernandez recite the poem unknown girl in the maternity world. Throughout the whole poem, Amanda had very appropriate physical presence in which she didnt make too many gestures with her hands, she didn't act out what she was saying, and she looked very comfortable up in front of the audience. Not only was her physical presence outstanding but her voice and articulation was flawless. She didn't mispronounce a single word and she made the poem flow out professionally. For dramatization, she even added some tears which greatly enhanced the dramatic effect
As far as the level of difficulty goes, the poem was incredibly long as well as very sophisticated content and very high diction. To have such good articulation and confidence reading a poem of such difficulty and length is very impressive. congratulations to Amanda.

behold life lesson

A life lesson I have been told many a times is, "if you quit now you will regret it later." This was said to me by my father when I asked if I could stop taking guitar lessons. At the time, I was really not in the mood to keep practicing and practicing and I didn't really realize how it would affect me later in my life. My dad said when he was a kid he didn't play guitar but now that he does, he wishes he was better and he wishes he would have taken lessons at some point.
Now that I have thought about the phrase said many a times, i understand what he was talking about and how playing guitar will be a great skill for when I am older. Als0 another lesson that comes with that phrase is a hidden one and that is responsibility. I would have to be responsible to practice and to go to my lessons. Just in that small phrase there were to lessons, and those lessons may very well be a great key to success so thank you dad!

behold: my best bud

I would have to say my best friend would have to be Devonte from when I lived back in Harlem. Devonte is about six foot eight now and he is growing a mustache. Devontes hobies consist of basktball and some football. Normally he is percieved as kind of a bad kid but once you get to know him he is really cool and good at stuff. He is really good at drawing as well.
When I was seven Devonte and I built mini potato guns and had lots of wars. He always won because he was a better shot than me, I had terrible aim.
