A truth I was afraid to accept

 A truth I was afraid to accept was that I would never get to play a role I had always dreamed of playing before I was too old. As a kid growing up, I had always wanted to play Matilda in the musical Matilda. Eventually I had to accept that I was probably never going to get to do that as I was getting way too old. However, last May, it was announced that we are doing Matilda for our spring 2025 musical. Now I find myself as one of the main candidates for the role with our cast list coming out today after school at 4. I can only hope the director sees me in that role and that I might get to live out the dream I had as a little girl.

In class, we continued working on our project. However, we were interrupted by the power going out which was honestly scary because I'm afraid of the dark. I learned that I am way more afraid of the dark than I thought I was.

Vocabulary

 Today in class we got vocabulary words and had to find images that went along with them. We also had to explain why we chose those images. I learned that it's harder to find pictures for things than I might have thought. I didn't really like this lesson because I thought it was very tedious and I lost interest very quickly. Today I am feeling ok. I have a bit of a headache and i'm having a little trouble focusing but other than that things are going pretty well. I really want to go home though.

Why I want a wife questions

 Today in class we finished and discussed the questions for the essay we read yesterday. I thought this was interesting because it was cool to see different peoples perspective on it. I enjoyed this assignment because I am very interested in gender roles and why things are the way they are. Today I am feeling alright. I have a doctors appointment to discuss possible meds for my ADHD and we are going to get accomodations soon so that's nice.

Presentations

 Today, we presented our projects on the poem we read Wednesday in class. I learned more about self expression and why it's important to not conform to the societal standard. This impacted me because a lot of the time it is easy to just try to run with the crowd so it's nice to hear about people who don't and how they feel. I liked this assignment and presenting because it was fairly simple but also allowed for discussion and collaboration. Today, i'm very tired and my head hurts really bad because I suffer from chronic migraines (whomp whomp) and it often triggers normal headaches too.
