Chronicles Of A Young Reader.

          I guess I learned to read and write from school. It started with the babbling and rambling of a baby. I tried to make out words on clothes' tag and the gray newspaper with black letters, captions of photos, dates, and numbers. Kindergarten sparked no interest in my fellow class mates. For me it was a whole new world. From the Action of the Avenger's Comics to the Horrifying Zombies I was Hooked!
          So School taught you how to pronounce and write letters but we all didn't know when, where, or why we were there! Our parents said we were there to learn and such, but guess what we could talk in Kindergarten and maybe a little in Pre-K. We learned to pronounce and to make words, school wasn't all i thought it was gonna be i got sick and tired going to school and taught myself how to read with my mother's help who was a Math Teacher at The Middle School. I taught myself my sounds such as A sounds like Ahh and B sounds like Buhh. I was Top of my class till grade school cause everyone knew what they were doing now, how disappointing.
          In grade school I was a bit of a slacker due to my reading habits, i had AR which was Accelerated Reading and we took test over the Books to see how well we read them and we had averages and point totals, and get this the goal was to reach our goals which was fifteen to how ever many points we wanted to try to get before the nine weeks was over. Mine was always around thirty but I always seemed to get more around 50-75! All about that competition! In Third Grade I was Named Top Reader With 735 Points in one school year. I was Phenomenal, I read everything in fact in my next school years I would go to the school library and have nothing to read due to the fact I read it all! Harry Potter-Chronicles of Narnia all gone, i had nothing else to read I even read the poor Star Wars books that no one ever read cause they saw the movies!
           Alas, I went to all different Libraries, like Wolf Folk by the Elementary School. Even the West Memphis Public Library and started reading books for older people such as Junot Díaz, and Nicholson Baker. All my books I read had gone and taken my innocence and transformed me into a full-blown reader, in my seventh year of school I explained to my teacher that I could no longer do AR cause i read it all, He then introduced me to the other section of the library, a world filled with well, normal stuff, Nonfiction. Yes! no more Vampires and Zombies. No more tales that only a kid could imagine. I was in
the adult world with Worldy issues, people's own personal problems, like Titanic but without the Ship!
         These books sparked no interest it ruined all of my worldly ideas such as commensalism, and dictators! I never liked these books. These books made my Perfect World alot less perfect. I tried to accept that fact. But alas i couldnt.
        

Lincoln's Tone

Lincoln created a tone of righteous indigence in his second inaugural address. In Paragraph three Lincoln shows that "one eighth of the population were colored slaves." The North (Union) wasn't happy that The South (Confederacy) had slaves to work their cheap labor crops. Lincoln's Tone of voice must have been strong and unhappy due to the fact of his choice of words. Lincoln used words like fervently, triumph, Almighty, strengthen, malice, and perpetuate. These Words express how Lincoln feels and how strongly an abolitionist he truly is. In this, The Civil War was truly over nothing but a disagreement and Lincoln"s tone in this address was just a strong felt tone such as righteous indignation.
