Reflect on a time when you discovered a new perspective that completely changed how you viewed a person, group, or place. How did your previous “single story” shape your thoughts or actions?

 Prompt Response: I once had a challenging situation with an individual that I had a very good bond with. Grew up very close but there were bumps along the road that made me realize that our mindset was completely different. This made me view this person completely different, I started to add up the little things they did or said and it made me realize that it was going to take somebody else to understand where they were coming from or their sense of knowledge because I would try and try over and over to understand them and every single time I would, this individual would get upset with me for not understand and not trying to give up on understanding. Now I tend to view people before deciding if I want to be friends with them or not, because I don't have to lose a huge amount of my time knowing that the bond won't work out at the end. 

Summary: September 16, 2025, Assignment was on commonlit.  

Reflection: I strive to be the best that I can be everyday in any way, to reach my goals and to become who I strive to be. To achieve my long term goals and live in my terms of peace.

Prompt: Write about a time when you were judged unfairly.

  Prompt Response:  This one time In my junior year, the security guard ordered all females to come out the restroom because the females that were in the bathroom were being awfully too loud. Instead of going silent and not going out like the females that were in the restroom, I followed orders and went out. The security guard stopped me and accused me of being "High" just because I had a blank expression which is my resting face and I chose to have my eyes low. I got really upset and said some rude things and told the guard that instead of focusing on me he should focus on the fact that I was the only female that came out the restroom after him hearing screaming and laughing by multiple other females. I have a feeling that if I was a White girl then I wouldn't have been accused of such thing and I feel like I was judged based on the fact that there are Hispanic females that are usually "High" or under the influence, but me knowing that I am not 1 of them.  Summ...

Prompt: Today we discussed why academic writing must reflect your own thinking and understanding rather than relying on artificial intelligence to generate your ideas. After learning about the expectations for authentic writing, reflect on why it is important for students to write essays in their own words.

  Prompt Response:  running your own essay brings the "you" out more than using artificial intelligence. It is also not fair for other people that use their own words and having people that use AI get a better grade off of what  is artificially generated. It's a form of cheat and it brings a source of unbalance showing that you aren't capable of the acknowledgment of what you know. personally when I write it tends to bring me more ideas it tends to create a better understanding of what I want to say and what I'm trying to prove instead of getting some AI generated answer that anybody can get.  Summary: March 4, 2026, in class we started our essays based off the book of Wild by Cheryl strayed. The class found topics to write about and examples and we each picked our topics along with our examples.  Reflection:  I strive to be the best that i can be everyday in any way possible, so that i can reach my goals and achieve my long term goals in the future.

In "The Lamb" and "The Tyger", both poems suggest that beauty and danger can come from the same source. Describe a time when something or someone you admired also scared or challenged you. How did that experience change the way you see the world or the idea of “goodness”?

  Prompt Response:  Growing up I faced major health issues, issues where i would struggle to eat because i would end up throwing it all up no matter what, even when i would try my best to keep my food in my stomach and not having to throw it back out.  I had no clue what was happening to me and it was at such an early age in my life where i was around 7 or 8, seeing that i struggled to gain weight and i was mainly bone, where my skin was more paler and I could see the outline of my own bones is what scared me the most, also knowing that my mother faced trauma knowing that her daughter was ill. I was hospitalized for a while and within those times i remember meeting different kids that were also ill but were far more than me, such as this little girl with cancer. Meeting this girl challenged me, apart of me got determined to get better knowing that I had to take weird scary medications and having to have a bunch of needles injected in me, became something that I wanted to ...
