Thursday, February 25, 2016. I was chained down. I tried to grasp free. And reach for air. I felt the paddle hit my back. 1…….2…….3…….4 times. I felt it ring through my ears. The pain in my back was extraordinarily terrible. My sensibility was as good as ever. A breeze of cool air passed through the thin chamber walls. Slowly I stood up. I lifted my head up slowly. Bracing myself for my master’s omery. Shaking her head over and over. I tried to find a subterfuge. A euphemism was called out to me. Change ...

Tuesday, February 9, 2016. Should There be a Law against Catcalling? 8220;Hey babe, gimme your phone number! I know you have one! Come on, You’re beautiful! I mean did they seriously. Just catcall at me? If a law was made about catcalling, the law would be extremely hard to enforce and would be hard to determine what types of catcalling are fine and what is real sexual harassment that men should be punished for. “Should a man be apprehended for saying “Hey Baby”?

http://16ehanks.blogspot.com/2016/01/my-goals-for-new-year-poem.html
Thursday, January 7, 2016. My Goals For the New Year: A Poem. I want to read more. To devour book after book. To dive into Brontë, Bracken, and Bradbury. To laugh with Magnus Chase. To cry with Jane Eyre. To dance with Mr. Darcy. To fly with Peter Pan. To compete in The Selection. To run into the Maze. To attend Gatsby's party. To get my Hogwarts letter. To be taken to Camp Half-Blood. For these are not only stories.". They are parts of us. The parts we carry with us forever. January 8, 2016 at 1:36 PM.

Monday, October 26, 2015. Non-Fiction Reading Response to Veronica Majerol's "America Goes on a Diet". Did you know that only one Burger King Whopper with cheese is nearly half a day’s worth of calories? Wednesday, October 21, 2015. This piece really makes you think about why two are represented as clowns, and the other as a monk. Are the two that are represented as clowns sillier than the monk? Is the man represented as the monk religious and the two others not? Sunday, October 18, 2015. He sat and pray...

Tuesday, November 10, 2015. 1) One thing that I have learned from reading other student's projects is that adding advanced vocabulary to your writing really isn't all that hard, Once you know the word's meaning, you can just add it in to replace a less advanced word. 3) One goal that I have for creative writing is to add more advanced vocabulary. Another goal that I have is to write more poetry for creative writing. My final goal for creative writing is to expand the topics I write about. There's no wage...
