Literary Genres, Introduce Yourself! by Chelsea Hanlon https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0 Pick 5-8 items that symbolize you, then take an artistic picture of them (If you would prefer to create a collage of images on Google Drawings instead, you are invited to do so). Upload your picture here with a title and a brief explanation of why you chose each item to represent you. Then, respond to at least one peer's post by the end of the week. en-us 2020-08-12 05:14:05 UTC 2025-11-20 22:36:49 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f44b.png The Boldness of a Clear Blue Sky chanlon4 https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/676740019 I'm Ms. Hanlon, and I'm excited to embark on this historic and challenging year with you! 
Below is my collage, which I have named after the morning sky-inspired colors represented throughout the objects I selected. Cheesy as it may sound, this reflects my life philosophy: Life is full of new starts and we have the opportunity to reinvent ourselves whenever we choose.
Over the years, I have discovered new hobbies and habits that make me...me. Hiking is my favorite pastime and I like to go backpacking on the Appalachian Trail during Spring and Thanksgiving breaks (I have done 480 miles so far!); my hiking bug is illustrated by my yellow trekking poles as well as my dad's Boy Scout compass, which he gave me for luck before I embarked on my first big hike. 
Pictured in the bottom of my collage are my boxing gloves. I picked up kickboxing last September, and learning all the fight combinations has proved a fun challenge--as well as an effective way to "combat" (See what I did there?) stress. 
After a long week, however, I can also be a couch potato at home. To relax, I like to make a good cup of tea and read a book or watch some TV. Pictured is one of my favorite Disney characters in mug form, some black tea,  and a book I read recently. I have also included a signed painting by a Georgia folk artist, as I love folk art and keep several art pieces in my house, as well as some of my favorite colorful jewelry.]]> 2020-08-12 05:19:03 UTC https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/676740019 VANILLA AND STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/680734665 I am Sinforosa, I am excited to begin this challenging year with you!
Below are my collages, represented by myself. Over time I have discovered  new hobbies and gambites that make me ...me. always before going to sleep, I used to take my computer (pink) and listen to bedtime stories for children, I used to do that to make me sleepy and fall asleep, Since I like to run and go for a walk, normally when I used to walk, I usually get severe pain in my ankles, I think they are the shoes that I usually wear before, but since my mother bought me my white tennis shoes it is difficult that I complain about my ankles,I love spending time in my room with my stuffed animal, it is very fine and furry, I love the colors it wears, and how it feels to caress it, her name is melie.

To start things off we have my pom poms. These hold a very significant value to me considering I've done cheer my whole life. Those are my pom poms from 8th grade (my last year of middle school!) Next I have my bible. My family is super religious and when i was younger i grew up on believing in god. The one thing about me that my family can't stand is my love for hot sauce, this is why I just had to add in my bottle of hot sauce. Every Thursday my dad takes me out to dinner. Whenever he asks where I want to go i always tell him I don't care as long as they have hot wings that are drenched in hot sauce. The next thing I added are my Friends sweatpants. The first time i saw an episode of Friends I fell in love! I went home and watched the whole show (10 seasons.) Once I finished I just started it over again and that went on for about 2 and a half years. Me running around quoting Friends drove everybody I know crazy, but they all delt with it cause they knew it was the only thing stopping me from going crazy:). Then I have a picture of my brother and I. My brother is a super important person to me not only cause he drives me places but also because he's always there for me (well most of the time,) and I can always count on him. (sometimes) The final thing I added was my dog. If your friends with me your automaticly friends with my dog. Everyone always jokes around and calls him my therapy dog because he sleeps right next to me and helps with my anxiety. We got him about 1.5 years ago and we instantly became best friends and we do everything from bouncing on the trampoline, to eating, to watching tv, and to sleeping together. He will always be my best friend.]]> 2020-08-15 23:39:45 UTC https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/681582398 5 things about me https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/681988092 My name is Milo Staufer and here are 5 things that sum me up.

It's my great honor to introduce myself here! I'm Emily. I'm 14 years old. It seems that I am the youngest here. I am a Chinese, so I am a foreigner here. This year is my second year in the United States and my second semester in brandonhall. Still have a lot of places that do not understand, ask for much care! Because from my own point of view, I don't think my English level has reached a standard level. So for such a difficult literary class, maybe I need more care, more learning! I'll try my best.So back to the point, if I had to describe myself in items of five or eight projects, maybe the first thing that comes to mind is the stereo in front of me. Stereo can be my most inseparable from the items,what will we think about stereo?It must be something to do with music. Music can be an everyday in my life. Go out to listen to music, do homework, listen to music, and almost everything will wear earphones. And I seem to have been involved in music since My childhood. Since primary school, I joined the school choir and became the minister of our choir's high department, and the lead singer! Abroad to participate in the competition, the domestic competition to participate in dozens of large and small. The awards are legion. I haven't given up singing yet, (but I'm still very, very shy about singing in front of a lot of people.)Perhaps rope is the humble thing that can also be used to describe me. What is the property of a rope? Although very common, very common, is also indispensable goods. Why is the rope like me? In fact, there is a word in China: rope sawing. You can cut wood with a rope as a saw. Although the power of metaphor is small, as long as we persevere, things will succeed. I am a very persevering person, belonging to the quiet to do big things. When I decide to do something, I don't tell people first and show off. I'll do it first and say it later, not first say it and do it later. What are third and four items? Maybe one or two colors? I think it might be blue or yellow. Blue and yellow look like opposites. For blue, I will have a very calm personality. In a very messy situation, I will be very rational to organize. And will take on a comforting, quiet role. But usually this kind of appearance will only show in front of study, or unfamiliar people. For those who are very, very close and play well with friends, bestie, family. I may be yellow this very sunny, not afraid of the surface of such a pistachio.Finally, I would like to describe one of my most secret characteristics, I think it can be a dance machine. Few people know that I can dance. I have studied folk dance for three years and ballet for two years (although it is completely impossible to watch now), but my favorite dance is Korean dance, which can be described as street dance or Kpop. I like Korean idols very much, boys and girls. I am also a star girl! So I would learn street dance and dance by myself, and then dance with my friends, which I think is a very happy and relaxing thing.（I’m sorry I don’t have the picture ) https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/686382590 2020-08-19 02:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/686382590 something about me https://padlet.com/chanlon4/u5balvpptiyjcke0/wish/686470406 My name Erick, so I like to play game in my free time with some friends,  games also is my friend, When I'm sad, I will play a game to relax myself.  And phone also important for me😂, I can't leave my phone except in class, beacuse I feld someone cone to me on cell phone,  and phone can help me reduce embarrassment😅, sometime when I stay with other people I don't know what can i say, so I choosed play my phone.
