Prompt: Write about a meaningful object or place in your life that carries a story.

 Response: When I was kid going on the green electrical boxes were my favorite pastimes. All my friends and I would plan what we would play next or just talk about random things. The electrical box is a childhood staple that I believe a lot of people remember when they were younger. It was a default meetup spot and a central checkpoint that every kid automatically took up. Every time I see one I remember all the memories shared there.

Summary: I learned more about origins and the types of things they carry in them.

Reflection: Origins were mostly used by Native American people to describe natural phenomenons. This knowledge helped me understand how so many tales of supernatural beings or things came to practice.

Prompt: Think about the word or phrase you find yourself using the most right now. What is it, what does it mean, and why has it become part of your everyday vocabulary? Explain when you typically use it and what your choice of this word or phrase might reveal about you.

Prompt Response: Thinking about a phrase that I say most right now it would most likely be ¨forget yourself¨. It is a West African slang that essentially means to get out of here. It is usually said when someone says or does something outrageous you don ´ t agree with. I live in a West African household so I usually say it but even more now because things have been happening left and right. ¨Forget yourself¨ has become almost an automatic saying that I constantly use to express my discomfort and opinion.

Prompt: In “Because I could not stop for Death,” Emily Dickinson presents life as a journey that eventually comes to an end. What experiences in your life have reminded you that time moves quickly? How have those experiences affected the way you value your time?

Prompt: At the end of a long fun day I look back and somewhat reminisce about the fun day I had. It reminds me that as you have fun time passes on and you remember these moments as short-lived moments. Those moments have made me value the people that I'm around and the things I am privileged to do. Now every time that I'm out or somewhere having fun I soak in the moment and avoid being on my phone. I stay close to the people who have brought me laughter and enjoy every moment. Summary: We read and analyzed the poem ¨ Because I could not stop for Death¨ by Emily Dickinson and related them back to ourselves together as a class. Reflection: I have realized that no one can avoid death so it's better to live to the fullest until it's your time.
