"Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words are much worse" by Brianna Perrin

In English, we were doing a project about how people on a daily basis cross boundaries. Whether it means crossing boundaries in race, age, religion, etc. For my podcast I decided to interview my Aunt Linda who lives in Hollywood, South Carolina. When she was in high school she disobeyed her parents and forged her signature so that she can have the opportunity to go to an all Caucasian school.
BOUNDARIES

SPANISH 4 TAREA: Prueba de Peru 23/02/11

SPANISH 4 AHORITA: "SE" 23/02/11

¿Qué se hace?

Practice using SE to form the impersonal in Spanish. Construct impersonal sentences in Spanish by describing what one does in each place.

Los Lugares

    * Por ejemplo: la biblioteca / leer – Se lee en la biblioteca.
    * el café / beber
    * la discoteca  / bailar
    * la escuela / aprender
    * la piscine / nadar
    * la playa / tomar el sol
    * el restaurante / comer
    * la tienda / comprar ropa


Learning to form the impersonal se in Spanish is necessary for Spanish language learners to make general statements with unspecified grammatical subjects.

Sick

​"This just in! we are getting a news update from the studio, being sick sucks." There is nothing cool about it, when you miss school your too sick to enjoy your day off anyway, and you feel horrible the entire day. I bring this up because I spent yesterday and a good portion of today in bed crying, and coughing there was much coughing. 

Never ending cycles

​Once upon a time, there was a boy who was easily entertained by the internet. He would wake up in the morning and go on the internet. He would stay glued to the screen until he was hungry. After a quick breakfast it was time to go back on the internet. This cycle was repeated the entire day: internet then food then internet then food, until it was dark outside. Then he realized he had responsibilities that needed to be fulfilled, chores that needed to be done, and homework that needed to be completed. He decided that, while important, these things could wait. So he went back to the internet, a very comfortable place, until he could no longer keep his eyes open. He woke up the next morning and relived the previous day. 

What a great life.

3 Inches of Snow

My alarm went off at six-o-clock playing Goodmorning by Kanye West from my ipod dock. I woke up a took my ipod touch off the dock. I touched the facebook app to see my new notifications. As I looked at my feeds I seen people statuses saying that there was no school today. I turned my ipod off, and stared at my melon painted wall for a couple seconds just to fall back into bed and drift to sleep.

"Racial Boundries" By Callie Monroe

For my podcast I interviewed my grandfather and my mother about experiences they have had regarding their race. Both of them have a very pale complexion but are ethnically black. I wanted to see what it was like growing up in their shoes and if their racial experiences differed because of the time periods in which they grew up.
