 An adventure I want to go on is exploring Japan. It is one of my dreams to go to Japan. I'm so interested in their culture, and it looks like such a beautiful place.  The main thing I want to do is try out all the different foods. I love trying food from different cultures. I also would want to go shopping; there are so many vintage stores there. Also, it's so beautiful! The architecture is so well built. Also, I want to see the koi fish that swim in the ponds around the country. It just seems so magical. Today in class, everyone finished presenting their origin myth projects, and we did an assignment on Emily Dickinson. I learned a little bit about Emily Dickinson's background and how she may be considered "weird" and "different" from others.

 This is my cultural identity mask. On it, I included things that represent me! It was fun to learn about my other classmates today as well.

A real-life situation in which jealousy negatively affected a relationship I experienced is one time I asked my friend to go to the boardwalk with me, and she told me she couldn't go. The next day, I saw that she had gone without me with another friend. I'm not going to lie, I did feel a little jealous, but in the end, it was a misunderstanding. She had already had plans to go with someone else and couldn't go with me that day. Today, I learned about a folklore story "The Jealous Father" when a man suspected his son was having a affair with one of his wives due to marks on her body and tried to get rid of him but in the end the son never had an affair and the father tried to get rid of his son over a false lie.  Today, we started a project. My group is responsible for the moral aspect of the story.

 Today in class, we learned about 3 rhetorical devices. The devices we learned were hyperbole, understatement, and litotes. Hyperbole: Today's lesson was so revolutionary, my brain doubled in size! Understatement: We spent a few minutes looking at words today.  Litotes: Learning about rhetorical devices today wasn't exactly a waste of time.
