6 word memoirs-"Learning to cope with the stress."


 I took this picture because I think it represents how sometimes you find yourself feeling stressed out or upset. The six word memoir I wrote is "Learning to cope with the stress." This photo could relate to many people because there are many different situations where people feel stressed. For example: high-school, different classes, work, and relationships. But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. People will hopefully learn from the situations they go through in their lifetime.

6 word memoirs-"Slow down and take it easy."

I took this photo to best represent my 6 word memoir "Slow down and take it easy." I think that a picture of the beach with the word RELAXATION written across it is perfect for you to get into the zone of slowing down and taking it easy.. Like you're on holidays in a hot relaxing place! For me the thought of traveling to somewhere beautiful and warm gives me a piece of mind because I know someday I will be doing that!

6 word memoirs-"Relaxation is key to my happiness."

This photo is a picture of my sister just relaxing gazing out the window. This photo is a good way to interpret being relaxed. When you're relaxed you don't have a worry in your head! So therefore you will be happy! In my opinion when people don't give themselves time to relax and unwind they don't get to sit back and enjoy the good things in life. Sometimes people just need to stop caring so much about things that don't matter and just be happy and RELAX!

Peronal Additions

I chose to add this cute picture of two little kittens because this reflects how much I love cats and I think it's just adorable. I think that others will enjoy this picture just as much as I do!

Writing Reflection #2


Writing Reflection

I enjoy the 6 word memoirs. I find that this is a really fun and easy way to get creative without really trying too hard. Sometimes for me it’s hard to get creative, but I find that with the 6 word memoir activity I was easily coming up with small 6 word quotes to go with my life or my feelings. I think that 6 word memoirs is one of my favorite writing styles from now on. Not only because it’s something that comes very easy to me but because I enjoy reading what other people have come up with as well!

So far I’m enjoying blogging on blogger. I know that my blog is still kind of boring but that’s okay because I’m still learning! I’m looking forward to seeing how much work I’ve put into my blog at the end of the year. It will be quite rewarding.

Reading Reflection #2


Reading Reflection

I’m in the process of reading the novel “The perks of being a wallflower.” So far I am finding it to be quite interesting because it’s written by a younger boy, so it’s amusing to see what goes through the mind of a 15 year old boy. The main character in novel doesn’t give much information about himself only his name which is Charlie because the whole point of his journal is to remain anonymous.  I like this book so far because the main character is always so honest with what he writes about. The novel is his journal so he doesn’t hold back. I find that Charlie is a bit of an odd person though. Sometimes he’ll start off his new entry saying something weird or inappropriate.  He is a very smart kid though he just seems to lack information in the social area. I’m glad I decided to pick this book up because even though my life and Charlie’s life is quite different I can relate with him on some levels since he is only a year older than me. I’m not very far in the novel so I’m mostly only reading about his days at school or his feelings towards a certain girl. He has made a few friends their names are Patrick and Sam they’re brother and sister. I’m excited to keep reading and find out more about Charlie and what kind of things he will be going through and dealing with.
