Let it snow By David Sedaris

I really enjoyed the story because it was talking about the snow and how the children would go outside and play with in it. It reminded me of my childhood going outside at the first drop of snow an hoping the next there would not be any school. The children's parents are really strange. The father never seems to never be there and the mother is there but drinks It is really sad but at the same time it is really good that the children all get along and can play with each other and have a good time. I was shocked that their mother locked them out of the house I mean it is new york and it is freezing outside they could have easily could have froze to death. My over all feelings about the story is that some people dont have the perfect parents but when you have siblings that all can get along you can come up some really strange ways to get back into your house when you get locked out by your crazy mother

Goal and fears in englsh 131

I would like to improve my writting skills throughout this class. Another goal that I have in this class is to show what type of writter that I am. One of my biggest goals in class is to work on grammer and spelling. I am the first person to tell you that I am the world worst speller. I would also like to work on my typing skills as well. One of my biggest fears in school and in this class is that I might not fit in or complete my goals in life as well as in school. I am excited about the school year but in on the other hand I am scarred as well. I guess that time will tell and hopefully that I will becoem a better writter after i complete this course
