  Prompt Response:  The most unforgettable meal I have ever had was Christmas dinner when I went to Chops. Every year we go to a fancy restaurant right before Christmas.

The last scene forces readers to reinterpret Emily’s entire life. Write about a moment when new information changed your perception of a person or situation. How did that “plot twist” reshape your understanding, the same way Faulkner’s ending reshapes the story?

  Prompt Response:  I think in general when meeting someone in life for the first time you might hear stories of the person and then meet them and either like them more or not as much. I think it's just your perspective on the person. Also its your opinion so it doesn't matter what others think. This connects a lot to the book.  Summary: In class today we took a pop quiz.  Reflection:  I learned I knew a lot from this book because I got a 100 on  the quiz.

In “A Rose for Emily,” Miss Emily’s actions shock the reader—she kills her fiancé and keeps his body in her home for years. People often react with disbelief when they hear about real-life stories that seem just as unbelievable. Write about the most shocking or “craziest” news story you have ever heard. What happened, and why did it stand out to you? How did people react to it, and what does it reveal about human behavior?

  Prompt Response:  One news case that was so crazy I heard was when Spanish thieves took 1000 chairs from a restaurant. I wonder what they did with these. Also why did they steal these chairs and what did they use with them. It was so crazy because I have never heard of anything like this before.  Summary: In class we read the book " A rose for Emily". Reflection:  I learned a new book and what it was about.
