My Visit to the Writing Center
On Thursday December 8th, I met with Emma Scott Singletary to help me with my LOTF paper. I only met with her for twenty five minutes, but I in those twenty five minutes she helped me a ton! She helped me with my introduction and conclusion. She was great at finding a different way to word sentences that I didn't work. She also helped me with repetition and my thesis.
Emma Scott made me read my paper out loud which helped with my sentence fluency. It also helped me find any errors such as punctuation or misspelled words. She also helped me with any quotation errors. Emma Scott helped me make sure my quotations also went with my thesis. I think the writing center is a very helpful place and my writing fellow was great.

Sarah: How have your priorities changed from middle school to high school?
My priorities have changed a lot from middle school to high school. I used to get a good night of sleep every night but now I get no sleep. I am also way more busy then I used to be. I dance everyday and I also have to get all of my school work done. In middle school, I would have always given myself a day to rest.
In high school, I also try to hang out with my friends more often. In middle school I would never want to stay home on the weekends but now that is all I want to do. I never want to leave home because I want to be in m bed and catch up on sleep. In middle school I used to never use my time wisely but now I am good at time management and making sure I get things done.

Free Post: West Coast Dance Explosion
This past weekend I went West Coast Dance Explosion which is a dance competition. This was our first competition of the season and my team and I were very excited to kick off the season in Mobile, Alabama. When I arrived Friday night, I went to the convention center to watch some of my team mates compete their solos. A lot of my friends won and they did exceptionally well!
The next day I woke up at 6:20am to get ready for my first round of dance classes. On Saturday I had mostly contemporary and ballet that day and I was pumped. My two favorite classes were Will and Marissa's because they did combos to music that I knew. Will did a combo to Mumford and Sons and Marissa did a combo to Flume. That night we competed and I honestly forgot how much I loved to perform. I even forgot one of my costumes but it was ok because we fixed it and honestly it made the dance look better. Next weekend is Tremaine and I can not wait!

Literary Analysis Process
My literary analysis process has been easy and hard in different ways. As of now I think I have too many quotes so I don't know which ones I should delete. I also need to rewrite some of my looking closelys because it doesn't relate to my thesis. One thing that was actually easy for me was coming up with a thesis statement. Another thing that is also easy for me is finding quotes to go with my thesis statement.
One thing that is really hard for me is writing quotations the right way. I am always scared that I am writing it the wrong way. I recommend to my peers that they make sure that they write their quotes right. I also recommend to have someone else read over it before you turn it in. I did that because it is hard to find your own mistakes in your own paper.
