I GOT 1ST POST!! yeeayuuh

Hi peeps...so here's a little overview of what we did today:

--We went over/shared our metaphors, semester writing goals, and support that we plan to give ourselves as well as to each other.
--Don: Bamboo shoot because you try to be prolific and resilient in your writing process. You plan to work on revision techniques, diction, and sentence fluency among other goals during this semester. We can help you by keeping you on task!
--Shiori: Fishing trip because your writing process involves a period of struggle and procrastination, but eventually you find that a reward awaits you at the end! You plan to procrastinate less this semester and stay on task. We can help you by reminding you to use your Tiger Days and discussing your writing with you…
--Tingy: Oil painting, because your writing process starts out difficult and you need inspiration to move you to write. Your goals are to write something funny, a play, and work on time management this semester. We can help you by commenting on your revisions and also keeping you focused! (Sneaking over to your house and standing behind you while you do your homework.)
--Stephanie: Fetching water from a well, because it is a difficult but rewarding process to finally get my ideas out onto paper. I plan to write more eloquently, explore different writing styles, and maybe look into poetry. You guys can support me by helping me pace myself and open up to new ideas.

--We also shared the first drafts of our Object Stories—passed them around in a circle for everyone to revise and comment.

--Happy Almost Friday ALL STARS!
