A place that holds deep memories for me is my childhood house in Woodstock, Georgia. I was born in Georgia, and I lived here until I was 8. Due to my Grandmother's health issues, we had to move to Texas. When I was a little girl, my mom always made everything so special for me. She was an event planner, so she always threw these extravagant parties at our house, and I also had the best birthday parties. She would also repaint and redecorate my room for each birthday. I have the best memories at that house. I now live in Georgia again, and I still keep in contact with one of my close childhood friends who lives in the same neighborhood I lived in as a little girl. Whenever I go to visit her and I pass by my childhood home, it's always a bittersweet feeling. The house was repainted, and a different family lives there now. Sometimes I wanna just knock on their door and go inside and walk around, but deep down I know it will be completely different. The house being repainted represents a change from childhood to teenage years and shows how I'm growing up, and unfortunately, things won't be the same. Today, in class, we read Rose for Emily and answered questions on Writeable about the story.
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.
