Choose a vocabulary word that resonates with you personally. Write a blog post explaining why this word is significant to you, including any personal memories or experiences that link you to the word.

 I kind of liked the word " non sequitur" because I like the way it sounds and it is an interesting word. It means something that does not follow logic and I feel like it could be a good insult. Like if you called someone "non sequiter" they would have no idea what you are talking about proving your point further. I like unique words and I have never heard of this word before today I was surprised at the meaning, and it is a word I can now use in everyday life.

Today in class we did vocabulary lesson number 13 and then filled in some blanks having to do with the vocab words we had been given. We then read a short passage and answered reading response questions.

Describe what you did over the winter break (use at least 5 words from Vocabulary Lesson 10 in your paragraph)

 During the winter break, my boyfriend and I went to Colorado with his family. Our trip started with a hike in the Rocky Mountains, where there were really pretty landscapes. Despite the imminent cold front, we wanted to make the most of our trip. My boyfriend’s imperious attitude sometimes felt like an impediment to our fun, but he has enthusiasm for skiing. One day, while exploring the village of Breckenridge, we went to an old chapel, which some locals seemed to like a certain idolatry. In the evenings, we would gather around the fireplace, and his dad told impious jokes that were actually funny some of the time. The whole thing was unforgettable and really fun and left me with an appreciation of snow.  Today in class we got a piece of paper with 14 squares and had to come up with a comic book strip including our 15 lesson 10 vocab words to be completed by the end of class.

Easter Sunday was yesterday, a holiday full of traditions for many people. What holiday do you look forward to the most each year, and why is it your favorite? Share what you usually do to celebrate it and what makes it meaningful or fun for you."

 My family is atheist, so we do not really go all out for holidays except for birthdays. My favorite holiday would be my birthday, and others, that sounds very selfish, but not just mine, others' too, especially my mom`s, because I get to be in charge of it. I also get to make a cake for every birthday, a lot more when I was younger, for everyone, including extended family, but now I just do it for family because of time reasons. For easter we had a brunch and an egg hunt, and then I went with my boyfreinds family to church, they are catholic, and then we had lunch.

Describe a place where you feel the most at peace and explain why.

 A place I feel the most at peace is always at my grandparent's lakehouse during the summertime. We have been going every year with all of my family since I was a kid, we plan out one week where everyone including family from other states come into town and all stay in the house. It is really peaceful and beatiful up in the mountains and we always have dinner cooking competitions so there is always good food. I get to see family I have not seen in a while and relax. We have a boat up there so we are also able to do water sports and activities on the lake, me and my brothers really enjoy tubing. Today for our virtual assignment we read letters 56-60 in the color purple and answered 7 disscusion questions in Canvas. The chapters reflected on the racism Nettie sees in New York and in the African countries, plus her relationship with Samuel.  It also discusses Celies new found individualism with her new found skill of making pants and how she now feels in control of her own life.
