Reading "the joy luck Club"

 Today as a class, we read a small section of "The Joy Luck Club". The author gives a perspective how pressured the little girl felt, as she is constantly being compared to by another little girl. The girl is constantly out on piano lessons to be part of a competition, when she doesn't even like the piano. Putting high expectations to do something/be like someone can be hard starting at a young age. I don't think it is a good idea to expect a little girl to become the "best" pianist and competing with another girl. Often being compared to can lead to them not knowing what they trull love. Today I am sleepy, but I get to go home today!

After reading The Tyger by William Blake, take a moment to reflect on the idea of creation. What do you believe is the most beautiful creation in the world—natural or man-made—and why? Describe it in detail and explain what makes it so awe-inspiring to you

 I think the most beautiful thing in the world is the ocean. It really beautiful to what it may seem as just water but the ocean carries life. Sometimes simple things like water, we tend to be grateful for it. I remember the first time I went to the beach, I immediately fell in love with it. The small fish by the shore, the seashells in the sand, and the seagulls flying above my head. In the night small crabs come out, it was a little scary to me, but I realized not only fish live in the water but also those that get around by crawling. Today we read over a new poem called The Tiger which is the sepaker admiring the creation of the tiger. Today I feel ok and have to study for my calc test that I have tomorrow.
