 Today, we played a Kahoot game in class on current events. I liked that the quiz was easy, and that I got the minor work coupon for placing top 3. I learned that Michael Jackson was friends with Chris Tucker. Today, I'm feeling ready to go home after the pep rally because I'm tired.

After reading "The Tyger" by William Blake I believe all of creation is beautiful and something I cannot comprehend, because it is so encompassing and so intricate that it would take an immensely powerful divine God to be responsible.
