The Loved One Book Review  The Loved One by Evelyn Waugh is a humorous novel about film production, British community, and two funeral businesses. The names of the major charrcters include Dennis (Word of Whispeting Glades) Aimee (cosmetician of Whispering Glades), and Mr. Joyboy (head mortician of Whispering Glades) What I disliked about the book was the difficult vocabulary, but I cannot expect every book to have simple vocabulary. What I liked about the book was the drama and funny parts of the book. Recommendation for a specific audience is people who are not scared to read scary books. Have different opinions without getting offended.

Reflection|Journal Entry Day 18   In Mr.Rease class, the lesson was going over claims and how to write it correctly or finding the right one. To find the right one, first a person has to read the prompt and see what is the question asking. Second, gather up or set up a planner. However, it should not take lomg because students are in a room for about 4 hours taking the tests. Then, write the introductory paragraph, thesis statement. After, it is claims, textual support, commentary, second part of that. Atleast 3 body paragraphs and a conclusion paragraph.   Day 18:  Today, I practiced with my Drill Team. At this point, it should be no excuses to why somebody cannot be on the right command or do it correctly. To me, it look like some people want to be in the Drill Team just to be in it and really do not want to work on theirselves. I would like to bring a trophy down to 1st Sgt.Wright, 1st Sgt.Gill, and Colonel Brady, and Morgan Brown be respomsible for that. Some people must do
Reflection|Journal Entry Day 17   In class, the discussion was tips on setting up body paragraphs, learning info about the book, textual support, evidence, claim, and commentary. I need work on finding reasonable claims to answer the prompt. Commentary is what the essay should primarily be about. Since, it is the person telling how he or she sees it. My teacher also spoke on having 3 books  in our back pocket fresh on the mind. Figuratively. Meaning, names, events, and theme. Theme plays a role. Most of the questions says answer the meaning of the work as a whole. Simliarily.   Day 17:  I practiced with my Drill Team. Alot of commands are not executed the right way. Some people understand at a faster pace than others. However, freshman take JROTC. So, some the commands should not be hard. Guaranteed, our team will execute on commands and do a great job!
Journal Entry Day 15   My weekend was pleasant. My family went shopping. I caught up on shows to watch. Contemplated on whether I should cut my hair or not. The way my hair is at different times I do not like. I do not know why, but one side is thicker than the other and see heat damage. However, creative me had to to do a Valentine's Day hairstyle. I enjoy doing creative hairstyles. It shows to other people hair do not have to ve in the same position. Anyways, I did heart part into a bantu knot. Then, twisted up my hair. It took about 4-5 hours, I have patience. Sometimes, the amount of time it takes is because I will envisioned how I want the style to be and go from there or listening to music. Me and my 4 year old brother played this game called, Dead Nation. We also played in his little tent my mom got him. It is a cute school bus and he loves it. Journal Day Entry 15.

In addition, the class analyzed The Color Purple.I find the techniques useful in order to pass the exam.
