Prompt: Many holidays center around traditions. Describe one tradition that is important to you or your family and explain why it still matters (or why it no longer does).

 Prompt: A very big tradition in my family on Christmas was always secret Santa, a few days before Christmas we drew names and got each other little, thoughtful gifts. It was me, my sister, my dad, my aunt and uncle and very close family friends, this tradition fated after we grew older, my parents divorced and these close family friends became less close and everyone just distanced. But I still have my favorite people around me on Christmas and I think that's all that matters even though this tradition was once a part of my Christmas. summary: absent  reflection: absent

 prombt: For me, holidays were always more exciting when I was younger, there was something magical about holidays, everyone was together you had no worries everything was perfect.

Write about something that you can't stop thinking about.

I have a Hamster named Edgar back home, my mom was supposed to take care of him while I'm gone, but she has a lot of work and a very stressing job, and because of that she gave him to people she know so they can take care of him while I'm gone, and when I'm back I'm getting him back. I have no doubt that they take good care of my hamster but he is already 2 Years old and most of the time hamsters only turn 2, they don't live very long. I had 6 hamsters before and they all died with around 2 Years old. So I think about him very often. summary: Today we did class recommendation in the library. reflection: I learned about all the different classes and things lakeside offers.

Write about the best gift you have received.

  Prompt Response:   I think the best gift I ever received was a photo album from my friend, that I knew since i was a little kid. We were always together when we were kids we lost contact as we grew older but eventually found our way back together 2 years ago. The album was filled with pictures from when we were kids, and from the last 2 years. She put so much thought into that. It wasn't something expensive or something it  was something that's worth way more, a book where I can always watch back on our memories from when we were kids and the time we became friends again. Summary: We worked on exercise one in lesson five in the vocabulary book, where we had to fill the blanks with the new words. Reflection:  I learned new words and how to actually use them in sentences.

Prompt response: In my life my dad has been the strictest when it comes to discipline. He always expected me to work hard, be honest and take responsibility for my actions.
