 Today we read Act One Scene Four of "Fences". We learned about Troy's childhood and the challenges he encountered with his mother leaving when he was young, and himself having to leave his father when he was fourteen. This story took a dark turn that I was not expecting, but it fits in and makes sense to how and why Troy is the way he is. I really hope they cancel school the next couple of days so I can relax at home.

 Today, the class presented their story maps. I thought this was interesting as we got to learn much about others, such as people's skills: piano, dancing, painting, and more. While it's nice to learn these things about your classmates, I think many will agree this project is awkward and uncomfortable to share as it consists of many personal things. This week I'm a little stressed dude to the amount of work I have to make up by the end of the week, especially the work in AP Music Theory which is the class I'm struggling with the most, by far.
