Who is my boo Radley? Well...
When I was younger, I lived in this little neighborhood called the Bigelow Historic Neighborhood. Across from my house there was this really weird looking house. I was green and blue and it had tons of flowers and weird sculptures in their yard. They were all around creepy...
I was literally scared of that house, but one day their daughter (also named Kylie) invited me over to their house to play. I was really super nervous about it, but my mom made me go. I remember walking across the street with my dad, on the verge of tears and just thinking to myself "I'm gonna die and my dad is gonna let me.
Once I walked into the house that I had feared for years, I realized how trivial my fears were. It was just a normal home for a normal family. After that "play-date", Kylie and I became great friends!

Intro to My Blog
Hello! Welcome to my 9th grade Honors English blog! Following this blog will bring you great joy, laughter, tears, and a whole new perspective on high school Honors English classes. English class is all about becoming a better writer and a more engaged reader.
College students need to be able to read and understand what they're reading. They also need to be able to write well.
Excelling in English class can make you a better person because when you read, write about what you read, or even just write down your own ideas, you are creating an opportunity for growth. Both academically and personally. Academically because you are learning and exercising your mind, and personally because you can gain a whole new perspective on life.
So I hope this gives you a good idea of what my blog is all about!
