This year when I started AP Lang I thought it would be my hardest class and that I would stress a ton over it among many other classes. Then I got to meet Mr.Thomas who taught me that I shouldn't stress as much as long as I know I did the best I could do. I feel like that's how I've grown to learn that as long as I've tried my best then I'm not as stressed as I use to be in previous years and I don't have to strive for the absolute best.. One of my biggest challenges this year was  probably learning  the strategies for the multiple choice portion of the AP exam I don't know why but I found that the hardest thing. Another hard thing was the rhetorical analysis essay because I sucked at rhetorical devices. The easiest essay was the argumentation essay because I just found it flowing and easy. My favorite book was definitely The  Things They Carried because I felt I could relate to the most with coming from a military family and I felt like I understood what my grandpa's and great uncles went through. My least favorite book was summer reading book Devil In The White City that book was torture. I could have gotten a college degree in architecture just by reading that book it was so boring. I just want  you to know Mr.Thomas you were the best  teacher I've ever had (well besides Mr.Young lol) and  I really think you can change the world. I feel like if anyone would have the chance to make a difference it would be you.
