Mrs. Watter observation

-She sits quietly on her old stool
-her hand used as a support to her chin
-Smiles to herself in a psychotic manner as she enjoys her novel
-occasionally scans the room filled with traumatized students writing an essay and chuckles.
-runs fingers through hair
-randomly nods in agreement to what she just read.
-red scarf adds color to her dark outfit, and to the gloomy morning
-as student approches, Mrs. Watter judges the appropriateness of the outfit worn
-remains motionless for a few minutes, consumed by her reading
-"So how do we feel, great, huh?" I'm looking forward to reading them," she says, the she nods with her mouth semi-open, "ye-yeah"
-sarcasm throughout being observed.

Box Man: Debrief

1). Something that I learned

Something that I learned during the class discussion was that the Box Man is happy with the simplicity of his life when compared to the other examples in the story

2). Something I wished we would have discussed
I wished we would have discussed the author's background more, so we could have understood the short story better.

3). Something I wish we would have said

Something that I wished I would have said during the discussion is that the story is not from the Box Man’s point of view, so we cannot be entirely sure the Box Man is content with his situation. All the evidence around his story suggests that he is happy but we cannot be sure. The author can manipulate the story to make it seem like so.

#seniorproject

My senior project is on baking and cake decoration. My passion for baking began when I was a little girl and I owned my first "Easy Bake" oven, ever since then I bake for pure entertainment. I love baking for others, especially my family and friends. I plan to having various bake sales featuring new recipes I’ve learned or created and donate the profit to local shelter and my engineering club SHPE Jr. Chapter (Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers). Nevertheless I have been having doubts about my choice. My love for animals is too great that I might make a change once the school year begins and focus on helping animals find a home. My plan is to promote animal adoption, rather than purchases, and create an adoption event to help animals “in search of a bff”. 

Enlly B.

Hi my name is Enlly Bug and I was born on April 21, 1995. I am the youngest child out of three; I am two years younger than my sister and four years younger than my brother. I’ve lived in N*p* since my seventh grade year and I am surprised that hasn’t changed. I have lived in nine different cities throughout my life. When I was seven years old I moved to the United States, from Mexico, along with my mother and siblings. Learning a new language was extremely difficult and the constant moving from city to city didn’t help. For example, I attended three different elementary schools in three different cities during my 5^th grade year.  I relate my shyness to the constant moving and how it developed throughout those years. I am a very shy around people I don’t usually interact with, but once I become comfortable with someone the real me is revealed. I am extremely picky when it comes to food, with zucchini and pickles being my worst enemies. Baking is one of my favorite hobbies, I like to indulge my family and friends to a delicious treat. I’m an animal lover at heart and I pamper my shih-tzu all the time. As a child my dream job was to be a veterinary but as I grew that has changed. I play the violin in the NHS Orchestra, which the few people that know about orchestra refer to it as “band”. I am musically ignorant when it comes to knowing about the latest big artist.  I am on the cross country team and I have a love-hate relationship with the act of running.  I find myself being influenced by many of my peers, most of the time positively. I constantly try to challenge myself by taking the hardest classes even if I am not the best at the subject. Trying new things isn’t a hard task, unless it is extremely out of the ordinary; I’m not afraid to try new things.  I always find myself procrastinating, but after a few all-nighters due to procrastination I try and make myself do my school work on time. Science is my favorite subject area, especially chemistry, I hope to become a chemical engineer someday. I become easily distracted; one minor thing will take away my attention from something of lager importance.  I consider myself another average high school student.  Sometimes I think I am invisible to others. At times I feel like I am a solitary person, I can be surrounded by many but I feel empty. I become extremely attached to people who I really trust and I am afraid of losing them. I don’t have difficulty making friends, but the act doesn’t come with ease. Pleasing others is my objective, although most of the time it results in me not being satisfied.  I find myself comparing myself to other people repetitively, yet this is a bad habit because everyone is unique. Speaking in front of large groups terrorizes me, and the fear does not get better with practice. I hope this year will help me get over my fears.
