The novel, As I Lay Dying,  written by William Faulkner, is emotional and dramatic. Faulkner bases this story on the Burden family that lost the most important person that kept the family together which was the mother(Addie Burden) . After she died the family had to go find jobs and talk to other people to get enough money for the mothers coffin,  so she could be buried by her family members which she said before her passing. This family goes through obstacles and have back to back conflicts with each other during those rough times and they all had to come together and figure out what needs to be done. Darl and Jewel had to work with Cora Tull to start saving up to help their father(Anse Burden)  find a decent coffin and help put food on the table as well. I would recommend this book to anyone cause it gives that feeling of happiness but sadness at the same time and it could be a great book for anybody that likes to read books that makes you feel what the characters are going through.

     Today is alright just boring for right now and hopefully the rest of the day it gets better.

 Troy was going back and forth with Cory and they have came to a disagreement due to Cory not respecting Troy demands and owners up to Troy kicking Cory out of the house since Cory told Troy that he was a man. Cory came back to the family and Cory talked to his mom and they were discussing about Cory coming to Troy's funeral.  Today was finally and I went to the parade and caught alot of stuff and soon as I got back to the house I had the best sleep. Today was chill and I played basketball and just watched YouTube and played games on my phone.

 My day has gotten better and I'm getting better at overcoming being nervous about everything I do. Today was finally non me and grandma and my brother and sister played dominoes.

   In class we read Fences, Troy was a man who likes to drink with his friend Bonso every Friday, so Troy was always trying to get the fence built and kept slacking on it and his wife always told him to continue working on it.       Yesterday was good and I listened to music and danced to them cause I was bored. Today I went to the parade and caught alot of stuff and I tried more deep fried oreos which was good.

      In class we did quotes and understood what secrets each of the characters had and wanted to keep from saying.      Today was good,  and listened to music   and was chilling through the day.

     Today was good. I came home and and learned new music and chilled throughout the rest of the day.  In English, we did a claim, and did a body paragraph for textual support and commentary. I've got better at creating  my claim and get textual support. In Psychology, we talked about our childhood and drawed pictures from stages when you was on a bicycle with training wheels and up or from a baby on up to walking.In history, we learned more on what's going on in today's society and how it affects us on a day to day life.

     Today was alright but I'm gonna keep improving and staying on task with my work. But, I stayed at the house as usual and found memes and been laughing all day.

     Today I took the act hopefully I do better than last time so I can get scholarships and go to the school I really wanted to go to. But,  as far as the rest of the day it was fun because my family came over and we all joked around.

     In class we learned about celie and Shih connection. We have learned that Celie was was going through tough times and talked to Shug, Celie expressed how she felt on being treated badly and Shug comforted her and took advantage of her during a vulnerable time.        Yesterday I watched TV majority of the day.  Todayi helped my grandma around the house and made sure she is feeling better and get over her cold.

   Harpo was going through a tough time with Sofia so he came home and stayed there for the night. Celie seen Harpo on the steps crying and she tried to nurture him and see what's wrong with him.He explained and afterwards he felt sick to the stomach and then Celie let him stay over for the night.       Yesterday was alright and I just watched t.v. Today was the usual and I just played games on my phone,  checked on my grades,  and talk to my girlfriend  and my friends today.

 Yesterday was fun because I played the game all day as usual and talked to friends and joked around. Today was relaxed because I didn't have much to do but help grandma around the house and afterwards I would go back to my room an watch t.v.

     Today I learned more about each character and the letters that they will write to God to express the way they are feeling on the inside. The letters gave a complete thought on what they wanted to improve or change in a way to satisfy them.      Today was alright. This day was rough for me but fun at the same time and I enjoyed most of it. In class we had a great discussion on each character in Color Purple and it was interesting to learn more about each one of them.

Jealousy hurts trust Power improves weakness Kindness conquer anger

     Today in class we finally seen who Shut Avery was and her character.Mr.____ behavior has changed since Shug has arrived and he has been trying to reconnect with her by always trying to help, talk to her,  and cook for her.      Today was good and taking senior pictures was fun to do as well, I'm living life a day at a time so I will keep hoping that days get better.

 Yesterday was fun and I enjoyed but the work at school was giving me a slight headache so I took a nap when I got back to the house. Today was great because I laugh majority throughout the whole day and talked to Kherra and me an her joked and talked about theories, songs, etc.

     Today was boring and I stayed at the house and played the game. But,  I made sure I had everything ready for school. I talked to my family and seeing what is planned for the summer and talked about my college interests and where I want to go.

     Fonso treated Celie horribly. He had limited her knowledge and told her that there is only one smart sibling in the family,  he took her for granted. He took advantage of Celie and she was unaware that she was having a child by her own father which made things difficult for her to deal with.       Today was good,  I just need to stop over thinking things as usual but I cooked me some breakfast and it was great, felt like a chief. But, no matter what happens like a bad day that could mess me up,  I just need to push through and stay positive.

 After reading letters 1-7 it was new understanding but also it had a shocking meaning on how things have planned out for the girl and the consequences behind the damage her father did to her.      Today was good,  I've been enjoying the day as usual and glad to see Kherra everyday and all my friends. But,  in class it was peaceful and the book Color Purple was a mood moving book that made me want to find out what's gonna happen next.

Working on this project with my team,  has shown me how to use creative skills to come up with making a life out of nothing. My team members and I have learned alot about making this creation.  We enjoyed  doing this project and it was a great experience.

A monster so unique as you Entered this world out the blue Even though you are three in one Working together should be fun Go out and explore the world as you be Live life as it last for eternity 

Two heads are better than one Necks so long and very strong Boy, squid, and girl together as one Creation out of this world so wrong Students walked by Running and full of scream They shouted "Oh my God! It looks so big  And mean!" Tux on one side and dress on the other Even if they're jointed, they don't share a mother It walks by a mirror and sees its reflection and was agaped It shouted "Bleh!" and that was its name

There was a high school senior preparing her experiment for a science fair at her school. The day of the fair, she placed her beaker on a table and walks away. A boy, known as the school bully, carelessly knocks over the beaker and spills it on himself. The beaker contained DNA of a squid and also DNA of the girl. The liquid splashed onto a nearby extension cord,sending shocks through the boy's body. Moments later, the high schooler returns in a hurry, panicking because beaker had disappeared. A shadow formed behind her as she bends down and picks up her now empty beaker. She slowly turns around as a wet thing taps her shoulder. Mixed with terror and amazement, she screams. The high schooler was mesmerized at her horrific creation.
