FREE POST!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOO HOOOO FREE POST!!!!!
But that's not about my free post. My post is about how good practice has been going for the last couple weeks. It feels like we as a team are getting better. Every step of the way we get better and better. It doesn't matter if your the worst or the best you can achieve anything if you work hard at it. You don't need to be strong, smart, fast, or anything. You just need the will to not ever give up. If you set your mind to it you can do it. No matter what it is. I don't believe in the impossible. My slogan is for every problem there is a solution.

Reading Response to my 3 Annotated Stories

About 85% of my short stories that I annotated are mostly relating to irony and character. I only annotated for character in one story. But if I did for all three it would have much to say. Through all the three stories I have read all could have irony. Like the "Monkey's Paw". This deals with arrogance and miscommunication. Both of these could have been avoided. The same in "The Sniper". I know its not the sniper's fault but if only there was a way to communicate to his brother during the war.

Last but not least "Sucker". It was good to me. But I see Irony when he treats his cousin bad and then gets treated by the girl he likes, like crap. In the beginning I was thinking that this is what he deserves   but later on I see that he didn't know what to do, he was confused, things didn't make sense. So to me he was like a confused bully.
