Reflect upon the ACT Reading test.. What do you think your strengths and weaknesses are? How can you approve?
The act reading test is proubly the easies one but it might also be the most boring one. My strenght is reading the passage and getting it over with but i do tend to get bored and give up when i get tired so that will be my weakness to stay up and not get bored. The act reading portion is meant for students to get bored and want to quit. If its a good story that will make me want to read it but if it is a boring story i get tired and want to us bubble in anything to get done and i know i should not do that. I think i would have to learn how to read boring things and know how to understand it. If i maybe make myself get used to reading a boring story every night maybe it would be easier for me to take the test and not get bored. I would have to read a boring story before i go to bed for a hour for two weeks and then take a practice reading test to see if i will improve and if i do i will make it a habbit to read for a hour ever night. the ect is a long test and if i practice to not get bored i will have a chance on finishing my test with a high score. I think i will do i by every night i miss i will have to read double the next day and i will encourage myself to do it. All the act takes is a lot of practice and then you will accomplish what you want to do then. so those are my strenghs and weaknesses that i have for the reading part of the act.

Reflect upon the ACT English test.. What do you think your strengths and weaknesses are? How can you approve?
The English part on the act will be difficult for me. the English part of the act has the most questions. If you trip up on one question you will get the whole problem wrong. I really don’t know what my strengths are on the English portion of the test. The weaknesses that I have on the English part is reading the English part to some that sound like a easy part but I tend to get bored when i am taking test like that. it seem like my body gets weak and I get tired and get bored and i might just give up. i can improve by studying more because I rarely study at all so that hurts me in some ways. By studying I higher your rate of success. I think I need to take more test like that because like what i said i tend to get tired and bored by taking more test like that i get used to it and i will feel more comfortable with it. most people don’t even study I study but don’t really study enough and i need to do more of it. I think if i get notes I would have to look over it more just than putting it in my notes and never look over it. I think I need to take tutoring classes or act classes and I will know what to look forward to when it comes. So all im saying if studying will help me with my act and help me get a high score on all sections of the test.

What Inspires courage?
The big question today what inspires courage and I think that fear as being afraid of something inspires courage because without fear there want be courage because how is people going to face there fears if they dont have courage. You need to face your fears to have courage because if you are scared to dont something you want have the courage to overcome it. Courage is being brave to do something that he/she may not thing they can acomplish that you ma can die of. Let me tell you a story of a man named jim and he lived with his mother and they had a basement that he was always scared of. One day jim mother had went down stairs to go wash clothes. jim only went down there once and one day jim was wondering what had happen to his mother and he remembered he was wndering because she was down there for a very long time. jim was asking himself should he go down a basement that he totally afarid of and he decided he will go down there to face his fears and go see whats wrong with his mother. when jim was walking down the stairs his heart started beating real fast but he wanted to face his fears so he kept going and as he walked in the laungry room he found his mother on the floor he ran to her and grab a phone and called the police. The police came and she went to the hospital and that day they found out that she could of died because she hit her head on the wall and fell and became unable to wake up froma head injury. Jim saved his mother life by facing his fears and becoming brave. Being brave and having courage save lives in this world. the world have many courage people out there as police officers firefighter are out there risking there life to save others thats courage to help people and risk your life to do it. So thats why i was saying fears inspire courage because you have to put away your fears to have courage and to have courage you have to have trust in yourself to hpoe that you will survive what you are about to do. a feared person would not have enough courage to do a job that a unfeared person can do because they have to get rid of that fear to get and recieve courage to do something. Another example is a boy feared to talk to a girl if you dont get rid of that fear you will always be scared to talk to that girl and if you work up the courage to talk to her maybe she will talk to you. so thats what i think fear is the key to courage becaue without fear it want be courage to even think of. S thank you for reading and i hope you enjoyed nd understood what i was trying to say and goodbye.

What is evil and does it exist in today’s?
Evil is causing harm or violation moral codes. Evil stills exist today as life goes on. I think we need evil to have good. Without evil the world will be totally different as in there will be less jobs. Evil people give good guys jobs such as police officers. I think without evil people would be walking around here wondering what to do with there lives sense's i guess everyone would be nice. Evil still exist today because if there was not any evil people we want still have police officers and people like that to keep us safe. There have to be evil people in this world to keep the world rotating in a circle. so the people that's saying we don't need evil people in this world i think we do to have good people in this world. So to answer the question yes evil stills exist in the world and i think its a good thing. I know evil is bad but you have to think about what we want have without it such ass police officers, fireman, investigators, all the things i named are jobs that help the good man to be employed. even if your evil don't mean you cant become a good person everybody can change and do whats good in life. Same thing goes for if good exist evil exist because if their was not good the world will be damage and nobody would care about nothing. So ask yourself does good exist or is it a allusion. I think if good exist evil exist because you cant have one or the other because we need both in the world.

Why is dreams and dreaming important to self discovery
Dream and dreaming is important to self discovery. Dreaming elp people find there goeals in life by dreaming about what you want to do. Dreamin can help you rememeber school work and just somethings you did while you were awake. Dreaming is good to keep your healthy because if you dont get no sleep it can be harmful to your body and you really can get stres out with life. Another reason why dreaming is important is because you might dream of that person you want be with in life a and that person might be your solemate in life with you even knowing and you will think that was just a dream and say or do nothing about it that pen ill never know that you like theand you will never get with that person. So what im trying to say is that dreaming is not just sometimes a dream that dream can come trueand have a big impact on your life so dont let dreams fool you. I heard on the news that dreaming can help you learn and remember things. Dreaming can help in lots of ways but if you dont get no sleep it can hurt you in a way. And dreaming is one of the most easies thing that can help you. So dreaming cant hurt you it can only help you. And everybody dreams even if we cant remember it it happens. Sleeping and dreaming is healty and it will set goals for you. So dreaming is so important for people to do.

Chaper 20
Because they really loved Janie just a little less than they loved tea cake and because they wanted to think well of themselves they wanted their hostile attitude forgotten. They wanted there self to be forgotten about and think that they were better than Janie and tea cake. Nobody better not criticize yuh in my hearin as in she better not hear nobody talk about her in her face or were she could hear them she is talking about the jealous people that always trying to talk about her. Because its not fair that people talk about her behind her back and say hi in front of her face.
Chaper 19
Janie us been in dis dirty, slouchy place two days now, and dats too much. They was not used to being in a dirty house and staying in one they want to leave who ever the house belongs to. They are used to a clean house that they live in. and then him with the square toes gone to his house, a man with ugly feet that live in a ugly house that they wouldn’t want to live in.
Chaper 18
Since tea cake and Janie had friended with the Bahaman workers in the glades they saw had been gradually drawn into the American crowd. Janie and tea cake were being Americanize form the Bahaman workers they learned new things new dances. They enjoyed the workers as company. He sleeps on the bed and yonder. I think Janie is trying to say that tea cake sleeps and wonder and dreams he don’t wake up when he is called because he might be in deep sleep and cant hear at all when he goes to sleep and don’t wake up until he fill like it.
Chaper 17
Great deals of the old crowd were back. But there were lots of new ones to. A lot of people came back to the town and there were some new comers as well the town was coming back to life and was becoming a town again. Uh person can see every place you hit her. In saying he hit her so hard that it left marks on her face and people could tell that she had gotten beat by her husband and she didn’t do anything about it and act like nothing had happened to her and everybody knew what happen.
Chapter 16
The season closed and people went away like they bad come in droves. People were leaving the town and the town stared to get dead because everybody was leaving. People were leaving the town fast and quickly. The town is not what it used to be and need help to get it back to get it started. Taint de poorness its de color and de features. I think it means it’s not the money in your pocket it’s the color of your skin and don’t bring a different color in the home they live in. But its not the money in there pocket.
Chapter 15
Janie learned what it felt like to be jealous. She wanted to see what all the other girls see what it felt like to talk about somebody behind there back. People talk about here so much behind her back she wanted to see how it felt is it fun. She grabbed mah working tickets outa mah shirt pocket and ah run tuh get em back. I think what this means is that somebody took something from him and he tried to get it back what ever they took it must of meant something and he must of needed it to.
Chaper 14
To Janie strange eyes, everything in the everglades was big and new. She never seen things big as in her life and was very new to her and she was not used to it and was
As amazed on how things grew there she never seen nothing like that in her life so, all of those things was new to her. Tell yuh whut, Janie, less buy us some shootin tool and let’s go hunting round heah. Joe wants to buy guns to go hunting for animals and go have fun and be a man and just go live life.

Chapter 13
Jacksonville. Tea cake letter bad said Jacksonville. His letter has came a letter that he have been waiting for a long time and it is about to finally arrive and what ever it is he really need it because it can help him in someway and is vary helpful and he need it. Don’t need tuh ask me where ah been all dis time, cause its mah all day job tuh tell you I think what this means is that she don’t need to ask him how was is day because its his job to tell her and he was gone tell her anyway.
Chapter 12
It was after the picnic that the town began to notice things and got mad. They didn’t like the fact that Janie and Tea Cake was together they though she was down grading herself and they didn’t like him because he was spending so much time with him hanging out every day. Because Tea Cake isn’t no Jody Starks and if he tried tuh be, it would be uh complete flommucks. Tea Cake can’t be no Joe because he don’t have what Joe had and did not do what Joe did. Tea cake and Joe Starks are two different people.
Chapter 11
Janie wanted to ask Hezekiah about Tea Cake , but she was afraid he might misunderstand her and think she was interested she was scared of being misunderstood about Tea cake because she didn’t want him to find out that she liked him because she didn’t want to open up to anyone right now. Janie , ah hope god may kill me, if im lyin. Nobody else on earth kin hold uh candle tuh you baby. You got de key to my heart and he loves her and wants to be all his life and nobody else will have her.
Chapter 10
One day Hezekiah asked off from work to go off with the ball team. Taking a day off of work and play instead of going to work and having a boring day because you need a little fun in your life to enjoy life in a good way. My second quote is jes lak uh lil girl wid her Easter dress on. I think what this mean is that even though she is 30 to 40 years old she still looks like a nice looking lady. And being happy and enjoying life to the fullness that it could be and having fun.
Chapter 8
After that night Jody moved his things and slept in a room downstairs. I think that they had a bad fight they were not able to sleep together. I think Janie and Joe want talk to each other for a while until they solve there problems. The other quote is it a matter of time. I think this means that someone is going to die it is there time to go and it will happen in a matter of time or soon and aren’t to help that person that has no time to live in the world so its there time.
Chapter 9
Joe funeral was the finest thing orange country had ever seen with Negro eyes. It was so well put together rich and fine. The funeral was nice but not nice as happy that Joe was dead but how it was so well kept together and all the people were there to pay there respect to the person that made there town. They other quote is uh woman by herself is uh pitiful thing. As like women need man to survive in the real world because they really can’t do any by themselves. Woman needs someone to help them and take care of them. And or they need assistance in something’s.

Chapter 5
On the train the next day Joe didnt make any speeches with rhymes to her, but bought her the best thing the butcer had apples, and glass lantern full of candies. He stop talking to her and bought her things as he was trying to buy her love and thats the way you find love. Speaking of wind he de wind and wese de grass. Saying that Joe is blowing all over them and there is nothing they can do because they need Joe. They have to stay there and get blown untill he stop or untill they leave or just deal with it.
Chapter 4
Long before the years was up Janie noticed that her husband stopped talking in rhymes to her. Her husband was nice at first but as the years went by he started to get mean and stop being mr. nice guy and he started making her do work around the house.The morning road air was like a new dress. What this mean is that the moring road air outside was nice enough to wear a new dress it would be a great day for her to go out there to enjoy her self like she would.
Chapter 2
Janie saw her life like a great tree leaf with things enjoyed things done and undone. What this mean is that she seen her life as a great tree as things she done and did not do. And bad things she gone through and good things gone through. Waiting for the world to be made. What this mean is waiting for the world to come to you because you is getting tired of waiting for life to come. Looking for something to happen in the world.
Chapter 1
Ships at a distance have every men's wish on board. This quote mean just live your life and try to reach your dreams to the fulless and see what the world is all about. You will never find out what the worls is unless you go search yours dream. So if you want your dream to come true you will search your have to search your dream. These sitters had had been tougueless, carless, eyeless conveiences all day long. This means that th people has been sitting quiet all day long but when sundown thats when all the people get to start talking and start seeing things.

Future
Hello my name is Lance Bulley. My two dreams for the future are going to Central Michigan and have a wife and kids that I love and love me and live in a nice safe inviroment for the wife and kids. For me going to Central Michigan I would have work harder from now on and stay out of trouble. I would need good grades and a good ACT score to get in there. I have to stay of trouble in school and stay focus at all time. The reason I would like to go to Central Michigan is because of the pre law. This will open lots of opportunitys for me on careers as criminal law, health law, real estate law, family law, miltitary law, probate law, taxation law and civil rights law and more . Employments for lawyers are suppose to grow. For some reason I love anything that have to do with law because i like helping people. I enjoy seeing a smile on people faces knowing that I just helped that person. The business of law is a very serious business and I would like to go to the school that I always wanted to go to. So if I work hard and do what I have to do in school I would be able to attend my college of chose Central Michigan Univerisity. My second dream is to have a wife and kids that I love and love me and have a good positive life for my kids to reflect on. First I would have to find the love of my life and have control of my career by then and then settle down and have kids. My kids will live in a safe enviroment and have a nice life and not for my kids having to grow up doing bad things in there life to get better things because thats not the way I would go and thats not the way I would want my kids to go. To live in a safe enviroment I would have to have a good career that pays well to get my kids a better education and life. I would give my wife what she want and need and I would pay attention to her because money can not buy love. By having a carrer in law it will make my life easier and more safer for me my kids and my wife and set better opportunitys for my kids and set money up for their college fund. Taking care of my family is going to be my life and I would have to be a man and provide for my family in a positive way because I would not just be a dad I would be a role model to my kids because most likely kids follow their parents and their parents ways. I would have to have a smart eduacated wife that can set a good impression to the kids as well. So the kids will have least two role models in thier. I cant have a wife that sit at home and does not take care of the kids and all she does is ask for money. So thats my future that I would want to live and have for me and my kids and my wife.
