Reading & Writing Reflection #4

Reading Reflection
      My book i'm unfortunatley still reading is Glass by Ellen Hopkins. So far this week i've read 494-602 pages. OK so that sounds like a lot but trust me when your into this book you lose track of time. Alot has changed in so little time and it's very positive..so far. Hopefully she keeps the good behaviour up because shes actually doing well in her life now. She is still with her main boyfriend, the fling with his cousin came to a halt as the mom came back home after walking out. My prediction is that things wont stay this great for long as her and her "boyfriend" don't seem to have an honest connection. I'm hoping she will get her son back to live with her because i think its time she steps it up and becomes a mom. Another prediction i have is that shes going to end up doing to much drugs now that shes a dealer and has her own house i find her on a teeter-todder its just waiting to see if she ends up on the high or low road. The fact that Kristina and her boyfriend are already living together also scares me, it's too soon and i feel like he might be using her for her "supply" and its kind of upsetting because he did seem sweet at first and i would have liked it if they did become a family... i don't know i guess i'm a sucker for happy endings. Another thing that would be nice would be if Kristine and her mom became closer or even if she would just understand how tough of a time Kristina's having and try and get her help, part of me wants to just skip ahead a couple hundred pages and see what happens next.eeek!

Writing Reflection
      
           Hello, this weeks writing assignment was to do a moment story. The topic I chose was titled "Second Chances". The jist of the story was about me on my 19th birthday Oct 10,2011. Thanksgiving day I got into a what should have been-Severe Accident. Now I'm not going to go tell much because I would like to post this later on but the main thing was an attempt drift, a halt and an attempt recover but I sped to fast, caught the wet gravel shoulder and turned 180' and then flipped..twice. Everything behind me and my friend was gone and at that moment I new that something somewhere was giving me a second chance. I thought the moment story went very well, I remembered this moment the most because it was a traumatic experience and it's changed me in numerous ways. I don't think much will need work as I'm already done the good copy Ive already gone through revised,edited and grammar checked everything I could possibly see wrong with it. Although there's no harm in rechecking. I also didn't participate in the solitary confinement I mean leaving the class wise, i would probably get too distracted. I found it easy to write just in class. The next thing is my blog. I think my blog is going ok so far. There are some things I want to improve on but it takes time I suppose. One thing I'm wanting to change is the detail of my Reading Reflections. Unfortunately I am a slower reader, yet detailed I take time to read it so I can put my feet in the characters shoes. I will trey and find time to read more so I can bulk up my reflections but having this assignment every week is definitely difficult as in the book it takes a while for things to shift and change.
