Journal Entry

I was journaling with my students this week in response to the prompt: "What do you like and not like about where you live?"


I love the good weather, flowers, friendly neighbors, the way we can eat outside all year round. I love the lizards, the fresh fruit, the palm trees.

I don't like the electricity problems or the smells of burning rubber and plastic and charcoal. I don't like the gunshots I hear sometimes at night. I hate the bugs and the rats. I don't like the dust, covering everything a few minutes after the room has been cleaned.
