HHEEELLLOOOOO!!!!!

So I know it seems as if iv been slacking this semester, or I've died of senioritis, but fear you not I am still alive!!! (hold for applause) hahaha Well the problem is don't really have any computer connections right now, and I've tried blogging through my phone but whenever my posts is too long somthing goes wrong when I submit them. I have all the work done on hard copies and I've already showed Dr. Preston, but just so my fellow classmate can be caught up here's a picture of all the assignments that I haven't been able to post. Once I do have a computer again I will probably scan these, or spend a couple hours re-typing everything. 
Here are all the lit term assignments 

Here are all the other assignments too

AP Prep Post 1: Siddhartha

1.If you were the river, would you be enlightenment or would you knowenlightenment? In other words, what’s up with the river? What is it’s relation to enlightenment? (http://www.shmoop.com/siddhartha/questions.html)


2.What is it about the natural world that helps Siddhartha attain enlightenment? (http://www.shmoop.com/siddhartha/man-the-natural-world-theme.html)

3. Siddhartha features substantial activity and narrative action. At the same time, it is about one man’s largely internal spiritual quest. What is the relationship between the internal and exterior worlds of Siddhartha? How does Siddhartha negotiate these worlds? (http://danig14.blogspot.com/2013/01/1.html?m=1)

4.What kind of knowledge is valued in Siddhartha – carnal, financial, religious, or other? Is knowledge valued at all? (http://www.shmoop.com/siddhartha/wisdom-knowledge-theme.html#qa)

5. Herman Hesse’s novels before Siddharthafocused on alienated young men who rejected the cultures of their upbringings. However, these other novels did not feature the spiritual elements of Siddhartha. How do the spiritual elements of Siddhartha make it different from any other story of an alienated youth?

Hacking My Education

To name the things I would like to know and learn about my list would be endless. I took the time to browse through my classmates blogs to see what kind of things they would like to know,  and to see if I could find any similarities. Anyways something I want to know and I'm determined to learn about is what it will take to become a professional dancer. I want to know the skills and techniques I need to not let this dream stay a dream but become my future. I know classes are a for sure, I plan to continue dancing Folklorico at Hancock colleg and also take a ballet class to learn to basics to help me I other styles of dance. During the summer I went to a dance academy in Los Angeles. called Grandeza Mexicana, where we are taught dances of different regions of mexico by professional folklorico dancers. I made it a point to get to know my teachers to I can have them under my belt, and get their insight of being a professional dancer.
