"The Cat In The Hat"
The Cat In The Hat is a famous childerns book by Dr.Seuss. I know you are probally thinking why is she in 9th grade and still talking about kiddy stuff? But have you ever really analyzed the characters in the story? Like the narrator in the story. I think by his word choice he is daydreaming in the story. I believe something is wrong with his Ego it's not balanced. Basically what is happening is he is so board he just wants to pass time.
Dear Reader
Dear Reader,
In my english class we were talking about "The Cat In The Hat". I know its a childerns book but it is so much deeper than that. I believe in the paragraph above I talk about how I feel the character is day dreaming. Tell me what you think of my essay. Please be honest.

Dear reader,
My POG1 was about me talking about wether I agree with Thomas Hobbes or John Locke. I personally agree with both. Thomas Hobbes said that Humans could tend to be nasty and brutish and I agree. John Locke said that humans were born good and need no rules. Thae only problem I have with that is that if humans didn't have boundaries we would go out of control.
Thomas Hobbes believed in boundaries and so do I. He believed humans needed a bunch of rules. Thats not necessarily so. If you over feed a dog to much it will stop eating at a certian point, but if you feed it just enough to make it satisified it won't over eat. What I saying is you can't crowd humans with to many rules or they will disobey all of the rules.
Now John Locke believed we didn't need rules that we were were born naturally good. I believe that at times we can be good and nice when we want to be though. We are not naturally born good.

Graduation 2011
“Graduation 2011”
Many years ago lacks couldn’t afford to learn. If they tried to learn they were hung by nuces. Now we can learn for free. So why couldn’t why don’t we want to learn? We aren’t being killed for it. That’s why I feel I will graduate in 2011 because I’m focused. I want to make my mother proud of me. I want to show my African ancestors I made it, they fought for freedom and I’m free.
For starters I want my African ancestors to see what they fought for, for so many years. I want them to see their prodgy suceed. I want them to know their work was not a waste of time. I don’t want them to regret the decision to fight for us to be free.
Secondly I want to make my mom proud of me. I want her to see what her baby girl can do. I want her to know what I am capable of doing when I put my mind to it. I want my family to be proud of me.
In conclusion if my ancestors can fight for their rights to learn, why can’t I? They were hung by nuces. They were killed. They were even beaten. I want my mom to see me at each graduation and shead a tear. I want my family to see what they didn’t do but I did. I want them to be proud of me.

A letter about "Graduation 2011"
Dear, Blog
In my English class we have done many essays but Graduation 2011 was my favorite essay to write about. There are plenty of reasons why that is my favorite essay to write about. One reason is I believe I did a good job on my Introduction it was the best part of my essay. I also used great transitions to go along with my key points.
Firstly my introduction was the best part of the essay. I gave an interesting hook to the topic. I gave all of my key points. I also gave examples and explanations.
Secondly my transitions was on point. The transitions I used were on point. They went with the topic that I was talking about. The transitions were not repeated. My transitions fit in with my key points.
Sincerely,
K’la
