Priesta!

I am a freshman for 3 more weeks. In the month of June, I will become a sophomore. I currently attend San Pasqual High school, but I will be moving either next month in June, or possibly July. I do not know yet what school I will attend. Hopefully, next year for me will be a better and more successful one. I am aiming to have better grades, an improved attitude, and most importantly, a much better effort into my work. Motivation is myself in this case. Why myself? Because, I look at what I have been doing wrong and where my errors stand, and I am just plain done with it. It makes me look like I have no potential and that is not who or what I am. So, that’s where I find the motivation in myself.

Work.. Pt. 2

Work

I am currently working in the café, but I am not paid. I enjoy working there for many reasons though. One of my reasons for that is because it will give me skills that I can use in the future. I can use that as a reference on my resume. Also, it will give me skills in another way, because it teaches me the basics of cooking and cleaning. Also, Johnny, the café manager, is a disciplined boss to me and the other workers.

When my birthday comes in about a month and a half or two months, I am going to work at McDonald’s and get a decent pay. I am overall very excited. It gives me a real job with real pay, and it is a good job to start off with, though it is not my first job.

That’s basically all I have to say about that.

Imagery

At first, I thought imagery was A picture book. But I learned that this was wrong. Actually, imagery is the picture that you get in your head when you read or hear the book. I also learned about figurative language. I used to think figurative language was bigger words in books. But I learned that figurative language is language enriched by word images and figures of speech. The three main types of figurative language are metaphor, metonomy, and synecdoche.
