English this week...

Well we've FINALLY finished our literary analysis papers! It feels like a weight lifted off my shoulders, but now we've got to go onto yet another essay.  Our Global Issues Project for History is our new assignment. Since I'm in Coach Coco's class, I don't know too much about the project because he barely spoke about it, but Friday in class, we continued working on our bibliographies. I'm doing my paper on Problems with Privacy on Facebook." It is a big issue these days since almost everyone has a Facebook! I really think the topic is relatable and people really need to learn about the dangers online. That's why I chose it!
I'm still reading A Walk to Remember and I'm really enjoying it a lot! Landon Carter is a real troublemaker and the police soon catch him in the act. He has to do community service, act in the school play, keep his grades up, and tutor. A girl named Jamie Sullivan soon comes in the picture. She is a very bright, kind girl who is in all of those things too, but she is there to volunteer. Landon is not having a very good time and Jamie tries to get close to him to help him out. Landon doesn't like how close she is getting, but he still needs her to help him with his grades. She agrees to help him on one condition. He has to promise not to fall in love with her.

    ISA! I so agree with you when you say that it feels like a weight off your shoulders now we are done with our literary analysis. Your topic for the Global Issues Project is good,and important because people really do need to know the dangers on the internet. Also, I have always heard of "A Walk to Remember" but I never knew what it is about. It seems like a romance type book so I would probably like it. Tell me your opinion of it once you are done.
