A Bit About this Year

Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.

— Oscar Wilde.

Senior year. That weird year when students have jobs, and are planning for college, or working in a specialized trade, or even enlisting, but still have to ask to use the restroom. My name is Logan, and I’m one of those students. Over the next months, I’m going to keep up with the different projects and adventures my senior class is going to experience. I am looking so forward to all the unique experiences I’ll have this new year, including the reading of Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See. Remember in school when the entire class would be required to read some boring book that was wrote before your grandparents were born? Not this year, in fact, our creative teacher gave us the power to choose our novel (with limitations of course). Being told that we could pick was an amazing decision to look forward to, but the only issues that worries me is the question of “How do we create a prompt that fits everyone?”, but we don’t have to use the same prompt as our friend. Everyone’s choice of novel is unique, each with their own authors, imagery, and diction, and so the prompts should fit the book. But enough about the book, what about the blogger? I’m an average high school school boy from a small town in Texas, and looking forward to all the exciting things I will learn and do the remainder of the school year. I have a passion for reading, but in school, reading for assignments is much harder, because of interest level. Being able to choose the novel should change the quality of the work produced from the novel. Subscribe to stay informed!

  1. I’m looking forward to reading your blogs over the novel. Enjoyed reading the intro. I will put in an adjusted grade once you let me know you’ve written your literary blogs. (Chloe isn’t commenting, Mrs. Fasolino is. I’ve messed up my account some how…)
