Describe when you had a moment of unexpected kindness

 Prompt Response: It was the day I had to meet my best friends mother, and I was so nervous. I've known this person for years, but I never expected to get their mother. my first impression was that she is a very serious person, because of her serious resting face. It wasn't until a school event she came up to me, but turns out she was a genuine person. She even offered to pay for my meal after a friend gathering after the event.

Summary: Today, we learned how colorise is persuade in India. 

Reflection: I think colorism is a form of racism. Having a negative constructed upon those with darker skin tone are seen as less beautiful, poor, and dirty. This negative view made, is sad because it is also affecting the younger generations. People shouldn't be put on a label based on the colour of their skin and encouraging those to change it. Brightening creams can lead to allergic reactions, skin cancer, and burns.

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.

How do you find time to enjoy your day, even when you have a lot going on? Write about at least three specific things you do to enjoy small moments throughout your day.

Looking at my surroundings, talking to friends, and trying to manage my time are three things I try to do to enjoy my day. When I become stress with my studies I always take a sudden pause and just look around my room or the outside of my window. I then just become trapped in my thoughts for a good minute thinking how Im so grateful that I am only stressed about my studies than having the stress over other stuff. Today, we had to finsih our one pager about the two poems we chose. Today I feel good because I am closer to graduation and every day its starting to feel more real, but im excited.
