FINAL BLOG

I think blogging was a good experience for me. Sometimes just putting thoughts down is good to get stuff of your chest. My favorite topic this year to blog about was when I talked about the Civil Wars. My least favorite blog this year was talking about the Harlem Renaissance. Most of the time i put some effort into my blogs, but other times if i was in a rush to finish i would quickly breeze through some of my blogs. I learned how to sorts all of my ideas into a little amount of space from blogging. My favorite stories we read this year were The Crucible, anyone lived in a pretty how town, and the one about the guy who got hung.

Advice

Hello Miss Wolff Junior English is a great class. One thing with Juniors is making sure everyone in class is interested at one point at the year. I know that everyone will not be into everything you do, but doing different stuff throughout the year to interest everyone in the class is a good thing to do. Also having at least one book throughout the year that is a great read is good to keep people interested.

Gatsby Blog

I believe that since The Great Gatsby took place during the jazz age jazz music would be a good fit for it. I think the first i would choose would be "Charleston" by James P. Johnson. This would be a good song because during the twenties this was a very popular song to dance to and would fit well in one of Gatsby's parties. Another good song would be "St. Louis Blues" by W.C. Handy. This would be a good song because it talks about a hopeless love and his girl is leaving town and this is kind of like Daisy and Gatsby.

Mark Twain

"A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval." I think that this is a very true quote. A lot of times in life some people may be pressured to do things they do not want to do and it makes them feel uncomfortable. Whether it is the clothes they were or the shows they watch people will do anything to "be cool." This quote says how man should not worry about what other people say and just be themselves. If you live life the way you want to you will have no regrets and you can be comfortable with your life other than doing stuff that will make you uncomfortable.
