Feb 23 Prompt: Describe how you spent your time, any activities, traditions, travel, hobbies, or moments that stood out to you. You may also discuss something new you tried, something you learned, or how the break helped you reset before returning to school. Keep your response appropriate for a school setting and focus on experiences you are comfortable sharing publicly

 Response: I did not do too much over the break. I mainly worked Tuesday through Saturday. I had some friends over Saturday night to watch the UFC fight and when I went outside the next morning my house had been covered in toilet paper.

Feb 24th Prompt: Today you created similes and metaphors that reflect your struggles, growth, and resilience. In a well-developed paragraph, reflect on the process. What did you learn about yourself while writing your figurative language?

 Response: I learned that it is much easier to create a simile, at least for me it is. Probably because it's much easier to make a sentence make sense when you say that you are like something, instead of saying you are something. 

Feb 26 Prompt: Reflect on the simile and metaphor worksheet. Which topic challenged you the most when creating your figurative language, and why? In your response, explain what made that topic difficult and how you worked through the challenge (or what you might do differently next time).

 Response: I had the most trouble with finding my identity. Probably because I am still doing that. I had to think back to a really early experience and come up with figurative language for that.
