christina's blog spot 8/29

 Something that makes me different from others is that I'm a very empathetic person. I care so much for others and their feelings. I feel like it's a blessing and a curse. I say this because I'm grateful for my good heart, but I feel like sometimes people take advantage of it. Today, in class, we analyzed another Emily Dickinson poem, and we also continued working on our heart assignment. I wonder why Emily Dickinson began writing poems. I hope I can figure this out through reading more of her writing.

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.

Christina's blog post 1/7

 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.
