peaceful place

My peaceful place is the mall because it is a place were you do not have to worry about school or anything else. All you have to worry about is what shoes you want to buy and what food you want. It is relaxing because you can go there on Friday after a week of school.

"The Crucible" really tests the limits of morality. Discuss a time in your life when you made a decision because you thought it was "the right thing to do" instead of actually wanting to do it. Were there repercussions? What was driving your morality?

Morals are very important because they tells you what is right to do and what is wrong to do. I made a decision based on morals when I saw someone drop money out of there pocket. Instead of picking it up and keeping it I gave it back to the person who dropped it. The person who dropped it was very happy that I gave it back to her. The repercussions were very good because when I gave the lady the money she dropped she gave me ten dollars. I did this because if i kept the money or just left it there I would have felt bad. It made me happy to do this because it was a lot of money that the lady dropped. Morals are very important and everyone should have them.

regrets

One thing that I did that I regret was reading the same book for independent reading. I did this almost 4 times since sixth grade. I did this until the teacher told me to read a different book because it was below my reading level. I regret this because it was wrong and i should have read different books. This was not a good decision because now i have trouble writing. Maybe actualy reading different books would have made me a better writer.

social pariah

I felt like an outcast when I was in kindergarden. I felt an outcast because everyone in class had this one toy and I did not. This made me feel left out from everyone else. This is like what happened to gasby because as soon as I got the one specific toy it was not cool anymore. Just like when gatsby got money he still did not fit in with the blue bloods. This did not change my viewpoint of anything. This is because I do not make fun of people.

perception

The character in the great gatsby that i most represent is Nick because he is caught in the middle of everything and I am usually caught in the middle of things. He never gets into fight with people and neither do I. In the book Nick would say my weaknesses are I forget thing a lot. A bad trait he would say is that I talk to much. A good trait he would say is that I am funny.
