Where do I see satire in my life?
I see satire almost everyday in my life. I see satire at home, at school, sometimes when I go out, its just everywhere. But I see it the mst at school. A very good example of satire would be my old world hstory teacher Mr.Bosworth. He uses satire in his lessons. Another example is my english teacher, me personally feel that she uses satire a little to much. In conclusion satire is all around now that I understand what it is now.

Henry Bibb (1864)
Today is Juneteenth, the day Lincoln free the slaves. I have finally had time to my family to celebrate our freedom and actually sit down with each other. Today was a great day for us and other citizens who were once slaves. We danced, laughed, ate, and enjoyed ourselves. I couldn't be happier to see everyone so happy, so........FREE! But as i sit now and look around I wonder, if this is how our first celebration is on the first year after the event, how it will be in the future. On the other hand im going to enjoy today and finish off with the love of my family. We are all blessed to finally enjoy a celebration like such after all we have been threw, all of the beatings and trading and separations. Being bought and forced to do prostitution, we been threw it all and we finally get a little break from it! WE ARE TRUELY BLESSED! God Bless Lincoln for his accomplishment and may we stay this way for as long as we live!

Henry Bibb (1862)
It is now the year 1862 and I have been somewhat successful. I have lectured on slaver with the great Frederick Douglas and William W. Brown and I'm now a well known African American activist. I have had challenges in the past escaping freedom, trying to rescue my family from slavery and now I hear that Abraham Lincoln is going to free the slaves. I almost couldn't believe it was possible. I was shocked to hear that someone is actually trying to free the slaves. After all of the beatings and hard work we were put threw, someone actually wants to give us freedom! All I could do is think about my family being free. I pray and pray that they will soon be free. I tried several rescue attempts and have yet succeeded. My only hope now is to wait for the document to be confirmed and then reunite with my family!

Henry Bibb (1833)
My name is Henry Bibb and I was born on March 10 1815. As I watch my family get traded back and forth i wish i could do something to stop the transition. I wish my wife wasn't forced to prostitution. I want to escape, I want my family to escape, I want everyone to be free. I sit here and pray that my plan works and hopefully later on ill be able to come back to my family. This has to be shut down. I can't stand anymore blood and sweat fom innocent people or tears from my fellow citizens.....

What is a relationship?
A relationship is defined as " the state of being related or interrelated". This is a definition from merriam webster, but there can be more meaninigs of a relationship. A relaionship can mean a comparison between nouns and objects, there can be a passionable relationship where two people have the desire to be with each other, or there can be a sexual relationship where two adults can have sexual intercorse. My point in this is that there are different types of relationships but if I would have to define relationship by itself I would define it as the definiyion above and also by adding a comparison between something or someone.

Who was your most influential teacher?
My most fluential is all my teachers from k-9 grade. I dont have a favorite teacher because all teachers that teach me always have pushed and woorked hard with me. one thing that teahers tell me is that i have the capability to be a 4.0 student, inever achieved this GPA but plan to. all my teachers expected hard work and focus in there class and with this said I do not have i most fluential teaher. I give all of my following teahers credit, but if the question asked what grade would have the most influential teachers i would have to say ninth!
Do you feel you have grown since the beginning of the year? What are some of the things that caused this to happen? What caused it to not happen?
I think that I have grown and also have not grown. The reason why I think I have grown is because in the beginning of the year a presentation of learning was very challenging to do with being new to the prep community and even the presentation itself, but now a presentation of learning is nothing but a little assignment I have to complete. I also think I have grown because I’m learning more about my peers and the way PEC prep is ran. I think I haven’t grown because I still do the same little disruptions and behavioral issues that should have been got rid of in the beginning of the year, which is being worked with.
