“The Lady or the Tiger” Which Door?

In the story, “The Lady or the Tiger?” by Frank R. Stockton, the man opens the door and see the tiger. The princess had found away to stop the man from picking the door with the other women in the other door. The princess was jeluse which it said in the story, and who wouldn't be, known that the man you love may have someone else to hold. With that she did not want to see him with her so she ended his life with out him even known what was going to happen. Also she found out which doors had what for a reason and I believe it was so that she could do her little evil plan to stop him from opening that door.

"Cranes" Before You Read: Duty

A few years back I was sitting at home with all the other kid in my house and I was asked to pull a joke on my overnight, at first I ended up agreeing with it until I found out that it had something to do with his pillow, shoes and other personal things he took with him to work. I ened up telling them that what they was about to do is not cool, and me being a lover of shoes and everything I kind of felt what the overnight was about to feel when he woke up. I ended up going to my room and they ended up staying up late to pull the joke. The next morning the overnight was over his head mad and the three kids that did it gave it away by not going to school the next day becuase they did not get the rest needed and also becuase one of the younger kids ended up telling someone else about it. I was happy I did not do the joke with them and I put myself in the overnight's shoes that day.

"The Sniper" Before You Read: Fear

Most people perform well in heart-pounding times because they are able to have their quick reacttions on danger and or getting to safety. For example if someone can at you and tried to hit you in you face the first reacttion is to block your face, also if someone was on the break of death they would do whatever it takes to do what they need to do to live without even thinking about it for one second. All of these people are just like you and me they will do anything for their protection and even their family's protection.

THEME it stands for what it means.
Theme is what we adoor non-fiction, fiction and more.
My favorite genre is drama but don't tell my momma, and there is also themes that talk about Obama.

Characteristics of the theme gives us meaning of the sences, and helps us understand what the auther really means.

Summer School Plan

In summer school I hope to get all the points needed to fix all the missing credits that I have right now. Also I plan to learning a little bit more then what I did during the school year. In school I do plan on coming in to time, not missing any of homework or classwork given to me. I also so hope to have a good time and enjoy myself and not over stress myself. Even though I would love to still be on pass, I know that making up in school is ten times better on me for the future. In saying all that I am hoping that summer school flies pass and I do whats needed.

Portfolio - Improvement

Over the last two years, I have improved in my writing. I have always been a great writer but working with Ms. Priester over the last two years has helped me understand how to put more feelings into the write and also more details. For the reading part I have also improve but not as much as I wanted, do to the fact that I do not spend time reading books or anything like that.

Speaking in front of people are one of the easies things that I can graded in because I love having all eyes on me and also because I know that you can not be scared or worried to share in college. As for group working stills I don't really do well with other people because I like to work at my own speed and take my time on the work that is give. Technology skills have been a key in the last two years I have spent so much time working on the computer that I believe I am a computer. I am able to create online sites and other interesting thing.

The last two years has been a lot of work but it all ended up being paid of in the long run, I am also really happy to say that I had the chance to work with Ms. Priester.
