In Letters 46–50, Celie begins to see Albert more clearly—his flaws, his regrets, and the ways he changes when he is no longer in complete control of her. Their relationship slowly shifts from fear and dominance to honesty and distance. Write about a relationship in your life that changed over time as you grew older or more aware. What made the dynamic shift, and how did your understanding of that person evolve?

Prompt response: At some point, I had a friend back in middle school I used to think that he was a great friend, but now that I think about it he truly wasn't that great of a person. He used to be disruptive in class, never do work, and even be rude to other people around him, and I used to think that it was funny. Now that I am older, I realize that it was kind of foolish to hang around people like that.
Summary: Today, we read letters 51 through 60 in the book A Color Purple.
Reflection: Always hang out with those who respect you and those whom you respect. Those people will be the ones who will stick with you.

How have the holidays changed as you have grown older? Compare your experiences of the holidays during childhood with how you experience them now, focusing on shifts in perspective, responsibilities, or emotional meaning.

Prompt response: As I have grown older, I realize now that the holidays have really changed much with me. Just like Christmas, when I was really young, I would always wish to Santa like many people did, but at somepoint we all find out that santa isnt real and that just happens in life. I appreciate Christmas just as much as I did when I was a kid, as it is a time for gift giving and joy for the whole family. Summary: Today, we as a class all watched the movie The Color Purple and compared both the book and the film's scenes to see the difference. Reflection: I now know that all holidays we celebrate grow with us, and I find that to be great, as it shows that even at anytime or age you can still enjoy holidays.

As the first semester comes to an end, take time to reflect on your learning and growth in this course. In a well-developed response, explain what you enjoyed most about the class, identify the project or assignment you found most engaging, and discuss which aspect of the course you connected with the most (such as poetry, fiction, writing, or discussion). Finally, reflect on one area where you feel you need additional support or improvement as we move into the spring semester.

Prompt Response: My growth throughout this semester I found it to be very helpful as it was a fun class in general as I got to fit in and discuss many things with my peers. Many of the projects we have done were fun. I really enjoyed the projects we did on paper, as many of them were very easy to do, and it isn't hard to do your work, and if you just get them done, then you are fine. One of the areas I need to improve in is procrastination. I have many things to juggle, such as jobs and chores, yet I never find the time to do my work for the class, but I will always prioritize the work now. I would like to exempt the final next year. Summary: Absent  Reflection: Next semester and next year my main goal is to graduate. That is one of the biggest goals I'd assume every senior will have, but this is something I take seriously.

Write about your most special holiday memory.

 The most special holiday memory was when it was the year 2014, I remember that there was going to be 2 to 2 1/2 inches of snowfall and that had me pretty excited as it never really snowed in Georgia. What did we do today? We didn't do much all we had to do was read chapters 6-7 of A Lesson Before Dying and answer questions related to the book. What do I have to reflect on? Im not sure what to reflect on there hasn't been much to reflect on since I've been studying for finals but hopefully I can pass them all.
