Reading Reflection # 3
Still reading the hunger games and its as amazing as ever I may
add. Right now I would say I’m at the part with the most action which is always
the best part of the book. As the characters start to dwindle down the thought
going through my head is who’s going to be next. While I was reading the main
character was stuck in a sticky situation or if we want to use an analogy a
rock and a hard place where she had to make the better of two bad choices.
Within this she was stuck between a group of people who are thirsty for blood
and a deadly bee nest with critters inside. When she choose to drop the be nest
my though was first off how is she so cleaver and able to make the decisions so
quick and with no time at all because I know if I was me in this situation I would
more likely choose jumping out and making a b line for it in hopes to get away
without being killed. Where I left off was a great part that left you wanting
to read more where she wakes up after being stung. The thing that’s good about
this part is it leaves you with a question, comment and prediction. The question
being how did she manage to get away because when you stumbling around It would
be an easy indicator of where you are as well as how venerable you are. The comment
I was left with is I can’t believe how amazing the plan worked out for her
because she now has killed two people, bettered herself with the viewers and
has a weapon she knows how to use which helps he significantly. And the
prediction now is that she will win the game because she was able to get
established both in and out of the area.

Reading Reflection #2
As we get further into the hunger
games things start to pick up from the beginning which is a lot slower but
still as good .where I last left of after my last reading reflection the
tributes were just getting ready to head into the area. The instant they got into
the area my heart literally stopped. I like how the writer made it so the cant
move for sixty seconds before they start the hunger games it was great as a
reader to have the anticipation before things get real. One comment I made was I’m
glad that katniss went into the cornucopia to grab anything that she could use
because it will be helpful. As I kept reading and got to the part when peeta is
working with the careers I was in love with the twist that we got it makes you
wonder if he was ever with katniss or if he was using her to put himself
forward in the games my opinion on that is he is aligned with the careers to
keep track of them until he doesn’t need them anymore and then he can get rid
of them and align back up with katniss. I look forward to continue reading such
a great book as we get taken on a roller-coaster ride through twists and bumps

Six Word Memoir 4: "One Day I Will Be Rememberd"
Six Word Memoir 4: "One Day I Will Be Rememberd"
Writers Note: I took this picture in miss.blauhut’s classroom. I believe that the picture relates to this six word memoir because it is a historical event that happened in china when they were protesting for rights from a dictatorship government. The reason the picture ties into the six word memoir “One Day I Will Be Remembered“ is that as the Chinese government were shooting people one man decided to stand up by himself to make a statement. This is my favourite picture that I’ve seen taken because it is so powerful to see especially because it wasn’t supposed to be shown to the world but was. The man in the picture has never been identified to me this picture is perfect because even though it wasn’t intended to make him remembered it changed the world and make people feel like there is some hope in the world.
Six Word Memoir 3: "Were Just Young Wild And Free"
Six Word Memoir 3: "Were Just Young Wild And Free"
Writers Note: My friend took this picture at area night club. I believe that the picture relates to this six word memoir that I have created because my life is basically living young wild and free. The reason the picture ties into the six word memoir is it shows me with a select group of my friends at my 18th having the time of our live. The way I see the memoir “Were just young wild and free “is as a teenager all we want to do is have fun and not worry about anything else in life but enjoying it. This is my favourite picture taken in my life so far because it’s one of the first time I have been happy in the last few years when i look at the picture it gives me hope that I have many more happy, fun, and free moment before i have to grow up and get serious.

6 Word Memoir 1:"I Stopped Eating To Be Beautiful"
Picture By: Cody Jarred Ashton Fletcher
Writers Note: I took this picture in my school’s cafeteria. I believe that the picture relates to this six word memoir because it shows the contrast of the memoir. The reason the picture ties into the the sic word memoir the note on the front side of the glass covering the food, yet the food is behind the note. The way I see the memoir “I stopped eating to be beautiful” by having the food behind the glass it shows that the food is behind and distant where as the note is aspiring to be in front and what is important. The fact that the glass is able to slid is good to because to me it shows that it won’t always be that way all you have to do is open the glass and eat the food on the other side in a way the picture is quite beautiful because at first all you see is negativity in the begging but as you analyze more there are ways to see hope in it as well.
Writing Reflection #1
My reaction to the assignments that we have been given this past week is good and bad because I enjoyed
some aspects of the assignment and hated other aspects of the assignment. I really enjoyed working with our WRN I think it is an interesting aspect for the class to express ourselves and our own creativity. I also enjoy that we are able to add personal additions into it because it leaves it open for me to do things that I enjoyed and make my WRN what I wanted to be an different than everybody else’s and gives it its own personality. I believe that within this week I excelled in the listography assignments I really had a fun time doing it. However there can be room for improvement on my doodling I didn't really enjoy the assignments we participated in, I’m not much of a doodler but I have a passion for writing and love to express myself that way because of this it made the doodling part was very stressful for me.
Reading Reflection #1
When reading the hunger games immediately you're brought into a whole new aspect of what you think the world is. It is completely different than what we know in the time were living. One comment I can make about the book so far is I enjoy that the plot is set in North America it is an interesting thought to me that in the future in such a country as north American there can be people struggling through hunger and fighting to stay alive day by day as there government sits back and enjoys all the pleasures of life it also leaves me with questions as to why North American has become the way it has is now run by a dictatorship. What happened to end all the goodness and will/can it be fixed? Within the first pages we are immediately introduced to the main character in the story which the young girl who is 16 the same as anyone my sixteen she seems normal like anyone her age would be. I like the part in the hunger games when Katniss volunteers for her sister's not going to the hunger games it shows that she truly loves her family and that she would do anything for them even if it means losing her whole life in the process which made me like her as a character. It also shows me she is strong which is also a contributing factor as to why i like her I look forward to reading more and getting further into the book as a plot thickens in to get taken on a roller coaster adventure through the ups and downs of the characters.
For the second doodle we did I’m class I choose my favourite bars/clubs I enjoy to go to. I had more fun with this assignment because it’s something I can relate to on a personal level and it’s something that I enjoy. Between the digital footprint and this assignment I would choose this one as the better of the two, I actually enjoyed doodling this where as I didn’t have as much fun with the digital footprint.
This wasn’t my favourite assignment I’m not much of a doodler. I was very willing to try a new form of creative writing but struggled to get through the assignment not understand really what it had to do with creative writing. Upon though I do see why doodling is and is important to open your mind up to new forms of writing even though it doesn’t make much sense. I believe for my lack of drawing experience i was able to come up with a decent doodle that represents my small digital foot print.
