Prompt: After reading Chapter 1 of Into the Wild, consider your first impression of Christopher McCandless. Based solely on the events and details presented in this opening chapter, do you believe McCandless truly understood the risks he was taking when he entered the Alaskan wilderness? Why or why not?

 I believe he knew somewhat of the big risk he was taking, but also was very confident in what he was doing. We see he sacrifice a lot to go on this hike and did not try to take the easy way at all. He was offer easier way but did not want to take it. I also believe he may have not knew as well because the journey was a long way and maybe he did not take in mind how long it would be and the specific risk It would take.

Today we read the story and learn about author and the background of story

I learned all about the history and the background about the book before reading chapter 1

Write about a moment when you had to step out of your comfort zone.

 One moment I had to step out my comfort zone is when I went to a basketball camp all the way in Florida. The competition was quite good but there was something the coaches said that stuck to me. Before the camp started he said that he like people who can communicate and would talk a lot and get to know everybody. The thing about me is I don't really like to constantly be extroverted. When I know somebody I can be more open up but with a brand new group it was hard, but I knew if I wanted to impress coaches I needed to build chemistry on my team and be a leader with a group I had no idea about. I adjusted slowly and started to introduce myself and then by that I gain respect by many people. That is a one way I was able to step out my comfort zone.

 The way I find time to enjoy my day even when there is a lot going on is I look forward for something good that will be coming up.

 Something I've always been curious about is the ocean. We as human have never fully discover the water and oceans and I really am curious about whats out there. Sometimes I'll watch documentary and stuff but they can only say so much. Our planet is huge and there is a lot of water on it so I feel that is something we should take to discover. There could be many other species down there and we don't even know and it just seems super cool. One day I hope they will and I can finally get my answer. today we worked on our argumentative paragraph  I learn how to write an argumentative writing.
