Tylexis' AP Blog

Reflection: Today, my class started reading a new book called Fences. The characters are what makes the book funny. I like the fact that Troy is blunt and real. He also has a sense of humor. My least favorite character right now is Lyon. He doesn't want to go out and make money himself. He is not into the manhood yet. Daily post: It's Valentine's day of course and I enjoyed my day. I recieved many things from bath and body works. My boyfriend surprised me at work today with many gifts.

Reflection: By us going over words in class will help us on the Exam. We now the difference in moments and events. They are very similar but are seen in different ways. Also, the novel The Color Purple will help us with question 3 on the exam. Daily post: Today started off as rough for me . I tried to take pills for my back pains but I threw them up. I am a horrible pill taker. As the day went on, it got better. I went Valentine's day shopping for my family.

Reflection: The lesson in Mr. Rease class was great! He is always teaching us new things. He is teaching us how to write a good paper step by step. I feel that I will do okay on the AP Exam. The Color Putple will help me answer many prompts. Daily post: Today was an interesting day. We learned something new in math class as always. Also, I got to drive to school for the first time. I went to the doctor and now I have to take 4 pills every day. UGH! Hopefully, I feel better soon.

Reflection: Celie is now very upset that Mister hid the letters. She changes her writing from "Dear God " to "Dear Nettie". Shug is on celie side and believes that she should leave Mister for all the wrong he has done. Celie finds courage to confronts Mister and she now wants to kill him. Daily post: Today was a relaxing day for me. My mom went out of town so I had to cook dinner. Also, I got to talk with my older sister for a hour. She's always busy with college and work. Also, my siblings and I made a cake. It was so delicious omg.

Reflection: I am now on page 155 ans the novel is amazing. As celie read the letters she has a hard time with words. She is also very upset. She has the right to be upset because Mr. hid the letters from her. He had her think Nettie was dead and now she wants to kill him. As I was reading this novel, my emotions changed from upset to happy. Daily post: Over the weekend I took the ACT test. I studied long hours. After the test, my family cooked up a seafood boil. They are all proud of me And so am I. My mom took me shopping for shoes ans prom dresses. I am not ready for school tomorrow but hopefully something amazing will happen.

Reflection: So far all of the characters are growing and gaining much knowledge. The readers now know that Nettie isn't dead after all. Mr was hiding her letters that she sent to Celie. A good reason for him to do this is because Nettie turned him down. This novel teaches many life lessons and I am excited that we chose this book. Daily post: Today I got to go over ACT material with my math teacher. Also, I been studying for 2 hours trying to prepare myself for the test. I have to get up at 7 a.m. tomorrow.  I would be devastated if I don't make a good grade. Fingers crossed and wish me luck.
