 Last week , I learned about theme. We were giving sentences and had to organize quotes and what we feel and think about it. We had to choose different themes for different quotes like for example: art is the true haunted nature- the theme for that would be nature is scary but full of wonderful things. I learned how to analyze quotes and understand what it is the quotes it trying to express .

 Today I learned about Emily Dickinson. I learned about her poem called “I felt a funeral in my brain” I learned how she went through a form of depression and how she felt she was about to loose her mind. It got to a point where it got numb and she couldn’t feel it anymore. She felt it happening over and over again . I learned that the mind is the battlefield and without that you have no control. You have to want help to receive help.
