My Genre for the next assignment..


I’m really excited to do this project. I have to analyze twenty personal letters. I want to research and look at letters from the WWII era. I think that would be so cool! Reading about what the person is going through, whether or not they miss home, or if home misses them. I have personal letters from my big and my aunt also. Comparing the genres of these letters is going to be extremely cool. I’ll probably find other genres but old personal notes are going to be the most fun since I didn’t live in that era and I didn’t ever experience what they did.

Fairytale


I thought this fairytale was going to kill me. But when I sat down and put my mind to it and chugged it out. I absolutely love my story. It has everything in it we needed. Maybe except for the happy ending, but if a child is learning his/her lesson, how can the ending be happy? I don’t know where the idea came along. I actually just started typing and hoped for the best! I thought that it would be hard because every fairytale has been written before. But I guess not because I did it. A whole page and a quarter. I rocked it!

Thanksgiving in the Windy City..


Thanksgiving, I can definitely say I’m super stoked for it. We go to Chicago every year and I love it. No matter what we do it’s always fun. We have been to all of the museums in Chicago. We go to Millennium Park and see the big bean. We’ve been to the Willis (Sears) tower.  We’ve done it all. We go to the Lincoln Park Zoo for the lighting of the zoo lights. For all of you who don’t know Michigan Avenue is a big deal and that’s where we stay. On the 9th floor with a kitchenette and make all of our food. We have make-shift Thanksgiving dinner, honey glazed ham, biscuits, corn, macaroni, and some type of desert. I love it. I’m totally excited for this year.
This is the Field Museum-lots of cool stuff!

Home-made thanksgiving in our hotel! Momma made it!

 The big bean!

Notice the objects behind and under us, thats the skydeck on the Sears tower, we are 1,353 feet above the ground on a glass structure hanging off a building! go google it!(:
