Prompt: Write about a conversation that changed you. What was said, and why did that conversation have such a lasting impact on you?

 Prompt Response: One conversation that changed me is when my parents talked to me about drunk driving. My parents sat my brother and I down after 5 people had died my freshman year at lakeside. They were talking about the different dangers that being under the influence while operating a vehicle could be. One of the people that passed due to drunk driving at lakeside was a girl named Sophie. Although she wasn't driving, she was in the car driving on Oak Grove Rd doing roughly 100 mph. My parents pretty much scared the thought of ever being under the influence out of me.

Summary: Today we talked about different situations in which people could find phrases offensive.

Reflection: People have very different opinions on certain situations than I do.

Prompt: Write about a time when you realized you needed to look out for yourself in a silly or harmless situation—maybe dodging a pop quiz, escaping a group chat argument, or remembering at the last second to submit an assignment. How did choosing wisely make your life easier?

  Prompt Response:  Quite a few times in my life, I have had to submit an assignment really close to the deadline because I totally forgot about it. Most times I would turn it in roughly 1 hour before it is due but one particular time, I turned it in just seconds before it was due. It was on a Friday night and I was out having dinner with my family, we got home pretty late after we had finished eating and I decided to call my friend to see if he wanted to play video games with me. We began to play and we were chatting about what had happened during the day. Eventually he brought up that we had to turn in some assignment that night. I had totally forgotten about it and I rushed over to my chromebook to check the time. The time was 11:58. I knew I had just seconds before it was late thankfully I turned it in on time. Summary:  I forgot about an assignment and had to turn it in right before the deadline. Reflection:  I need to be better at being on top of my school work...
