     Ray Bradbury wrote "the pedestrian" after he had an incident with the cops. He was walking down a street when a cop pulled up and questioned his actions, he was arrested that night and when he went home he was furious, so he wrote. In his story he expressed what had happened to him and also threw in his thoughts on technology. He did this by using the character and tone in the story.      Bradbury uses his tone to set a lonely, creepy sort of feeling when you read it. He does this by including that it was a misty evening in November. he also mentions he's "all alone in this world of 2053 A.D." He uses the simplest details to ensure this dark feeling to his story.

I have no phone, its the middle of the day,and i am bored. I'm watching Netflix but i don't now what i'm looking at.i am so bored that I'm not even here. Funny. i look around at my four walls and i wonder "what the hell am i doing.",i get up. I grab my pen and i get out of my room. As i walk down the hall i yell "Hades", that my cat, and i wait by front door. I waited for her but she didn't come. So i turned to my dog and said "You wanna go" in a mickey mouse voice. Princess got up,and eagerly walked towards me. I put the leash on her and off we went. we got out of the apartment complex and walked through the normal path we always walk through. Princess stopped half way down the street and started smelling the ground. She opened her legs and so i turned around to avoid any eye contact.After she was done peeing we went back home and called it a day.

I think Ray Bradbury wrote "the pedestrian" to express what had happened to him.  and also to throw in his thoughts on technology. Bradbury's tone in the story is very creepy and mysterious.the main character seems unique, compared to everyone that's inside their house watching TV, he's taking a walk in the dark but that only brings him trouble.

Since i have OCD, i usually manage my time well in the sense that i separate and make time for everything i have to do that is school,homework,chores, and my own free time. I also leave time to look for jobs and other opportunities that can help my future self so i can have an easier life growing into an adult.

being an amateur is often considered less proficient than a professional that gets paid for doing the same thing. i thought the video was pretty accurate to real life classrooms and it reminded me of mr. Prestons way of teaching.

the poem "dream within a dream" really gave me a sense of mind-blowing-ness i didnt really understand it but i know that it is deep.

i usually spend my time wisely,
