When I was younger, I had an elf on the shelf named Peppermint, and she always came around during Christmas time. Each night, I went to bed with Peppermint, and when I woke up, she would be somewhere else in the house doing something silly, and sometimes she'd even bring me gifts. However, a few Christmases ago, Peppermint left me a note saying she would have to return to the North Pole forever. I was sad that I would never get to see her again. Now, a couple of years later, I know that it was actually my mom who was controlling Peppermint and giving me the gifts, but when I was younger, I totally believed it. Today in class, we completed our vocabulary lesson.
A time I felt completely lost was when I moved back to Georgia from Texas. Although I was born in Georgia, I lived in Texas for the majority of my life. I had made friends that I love and so many memories. So when I moved back to Georgia, I was pretty lost. I moved to a more metro part of Atlanta, while during my childhood I lived in the suburbs. I still kept in touch with my childhood friends, but I didn't live very close to them. It was different, but I adapted quickly. The hard part for me was honestly missing my friends and seeing them all together, knowing I couldn't be there anymore. It was sad at first, but I realized that I could make new memories just like I had made memories with my friends before. Today in class, we presented our jealous father PowerPoint. I learned different aspects of the jealous father story and was able to gain a deeper look at the characters' actions, the morals of the story, and the themes.
