AM LIT: In “Her Sweet Weight on My Heart a Night” by Emily Dickinson, the speaker describes the emotional weight another person can have on us. Think about someone who has left a lasting impact on your life.

 Well person that really left an impact on me has to be one of my ex partners. We were together for four months and it was really nice because we share a lot of things in common. We share a lot of moments together. We had our ups and downs, but we always pushed through and whenever we need it each other, we were always there and I think the way I still carry her has to be the fact that in such a little amount of time we shared so many great moments. I got to meet her parents and I felt so glad that they like me. I thought that everything was just so perfect but things didn’t go the way we wanted it. I think the best way that she impacted me was the fact that everything of her still lives in me every song every memory every time I talk to a person about something every time I try to share the things I like it just goes back to her because we had so much in common and that felt so so perfect.

Reflection: people might impact you. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a partner doesn’t necessarily have to be a friend or someone close to you. It might just be someone who you just know for maybe a day maybe a week and they still leave it an impact on you doesn’t matter if you knew them for a long time or not it’s honestly it’s meant to happen. People are meant to leave you with at least an experience or a lesson.

Summary: Learn from the lessons that people leaves you with. Move on because people might not notice the impact they left on you. But neither do you notice the impact that you leave on the people.

AM LIT: Talk about a time when you had to write a poem, whether it was for an assignment, event, or special occasion. What was the writing process like for you, and were you proud of the finished product?

Reading it aloud at the gathering was nerve-wracking, but seeing my friend’s eyes well up (and hearing a few chuckles at the inside jokes) made all the wrestling with words completely worth it. It taught me that poetry isn't about using the biggest or most sophisticated words; it’s just about capturing a genuine human emotion and holding it still for a moment. Summary:  The story tracks the creation of a  free-verse farewell poem  written for a relocating friend. It shows the shift from a forced rhyming structure to an honest, memory-driven piece. The final reading successfully connected with the audience by prioritizing  genuine emotion over perfection . Reflection:  This process proves that  authenticity matters more than rigid rules  in creative writing. Letting go of a strict poetic structure allowed for a much deeper, more relatable human connection. Ultimately, the piece succeeded because it focused on making someone feel  truly seen and val...

MULTI LIT: Today, we started our discussion about culture and food. What is one dish from your culture that is a must-have as a representation of your culture? Identify the dish and explain what it is and why it is significant.

For my culture dish I choose  paella , which is this huge rice dish from Valencia, Spain.  It’s basically made with saffron rice and traditionally cooked outside over an open fire in a massive flat pan called a paellera. It’s a perfect symbol for us because it’s historic and also represents how our culture is all about family and sharing. Summary: Paella actually started out as just a cheap, basic lunch for farmers who threw in whatever they had like short-grain rice, chicken, rabbit, and veggies. Everything cooks together in one pan until the rice turns bright yellow from the saffron. Reflection: I chose  paella  because it’s honestly way more than just a random meal, it’s like a whole Sunday event for families kinda like a cook-out here in America. Everyone just hangs out and catches up for hours while it cooks, and then you usually eat it right out of the pan together. It just makes me feel really connected to my roots.
