Braxton’s AP blog

 Today we learned about the different claims. Honestly the most used claim in the world to me is claim of value. So many people have opinions therefore its a claim of value. Reflecting on today it was a easy day that went by very smooth. We use claims everyday so it wasn't that big of a deal to learn about them.

 Today was definitely not my day. I am not feeling class or school right now. I don't even want to cheer. I honestly didn't listen to anything in class today because i wasn't feeling the best and i feel like my "attitude" wouldn't be acceptable. I tried my best to be respectful but i don't know if i can anymore especially if i am not getting the same respect.

 Today was a good day. We went over our speech homework. I understood the rhetoric assignment today and had no problems with any of the work.

 Today i learned about Rhetoric situations and did a writing assignment for homework. I actually understood what was taught today and applied that too the homework that was assigned. We had to choose from the 100 speeches and choose which one was best for us and label and pick out the parts such as the pathos,ethos,and logos.  

 We did a pop quiz and I was actually surprised that i got the grade i did. Reflecting on that i feel that i should be better next time, considering we had just learned it the day before. I understand why i got it wrong and just need to apply that. My day was pretty good other than the headache i had got, which was more like a migraine.

 Today in class i learned about Rhetorical Situations. We watched a video of the mayor during the riots and protests. Looking back on that time it was a hectic time. That was a time that shook the community and slowly brought attention to what the black community goes through on a daily all around the world. Not just the blacks but colored people in general.

  I wasn't here this day. I was at home after I left school earlier that morning. I went home and went to sleep to try to get rid of the pain i was having. I watched a little tv and dozed back off.

We started on the poems in groups this day. My part of the task was the literary luminary which i felt was best for me. I always speak my mind and know exactly how to use my words. Reflecting on the poem that we had read was a good thing for me because i could actually relate .

 My dream is too be a surgeon. I have wanted to be in the medical field since i was in kinder garden. It is a very competitive dream , but i know that i want to do it. I know that i want to do this and i  know i can. I am intelligent and very competitive when it comes to what i want. I have always wanted to be able to save someone or make their quality of life better. Surgery has always intrigued me, and its so interesting and tedious how people can focus and stand for so long.

  Wasn't in class this day. I left school early due to a migraine and couldn't take it anymore. I went home ate soup, took medication, and went to sleep.

 Today was a good day. The class didn't get into too many debates, and we were able to go over the work we did yesterday. Although there were some things I didn't get right I was able to comprehend everything and understood the correct answers. Mr. Rease made sure we understood why we were wrong. He also made sure to let us know that it was okay for  us to get stuff wrong because it only review. When you get something wrong you learn why and do better next time.

 Today class was great. I was able to completely understand and comprehend our reading. There were some complicated and confusing questions but nothing i didn’t understand after the explanation. I like how my friends in the class won’t judge someone harshly for getting it wrong . You won’t be faulted or judged for getting something wrong , it will always be explained.

 Today was a good progressive day . I was able to get caught up on notes , do my work , and get good grades. I was able to step back and set myself right for the rest of the year to come . My feeling about school right now and today is confident . I have a great relationship with my friends and no problem with any teachers . My mother will be proud . I’m proud of myself for missing a week and being able to work at the one that i am . 

 My name is Braxton , i’m sixteen and I like to Cheer , play Basketball , and many other things . I like hanging with my friends downtown riding scooters and walking around after. I am originally from California but I was raised up in Atlanta . I have always been a nice person and never really have problems with people. I am mixed with a couple things and have 3 sets of grandparents .My favorite subject is Science and I want to be a surgeon when I grow up. I live with my mom and we have a doberman pinscher who is energetic and annoying at times but a great companion.
