Prompt: In "We Real Cool", the speakers make choices that seem exciting, bold, and rebellious, even though those choices lead to consequences. Write about a moment in your own life when you followed what looked like cool or fun, only to realize afterwards that it wasn't the smart of responsible path. What influenced your decision and how did you perspective change later?

 Prompt: Something that I did that seemed like a fun idea at the time was when I was 14 and I was spending the night at a friend's house and we snuck out at like 2 am and decided to play hide and seek in his neighborhood. We thought it would be fun, but one of the neighbors thought one of my friends was a robber/thief. We realized that someone could have pulled a gun or something thinking that we were stealing instead of playing hide and seek.

Summary: I was absent for a doctor's appointment.

Reflection: Sometime you have to think of the worst case when doing something.

In “The Interlopers” by Saki, Ulrich and Georg view each other as interlopers, outsiders intruding on their land and their lives. Think about a time when you felt like an interloper or when someone else felt out of place in your world. How did that situation affect relationships, emotions, or outcomes?

  Prompt: I had experienced being an outsider when I transferred to a new school mid-year, where people already had their circle and routine. I felt like a stranger and as if I was intruding in a world with no room for me. That sense of isolation made it hard to connect with other individuals and encouraged me to retreat further.

Summary:I was. not present in class this day Reflection:people will exept you if you reach out to them.
