Michael's American Lit Vlog

 My dream is to become a world record Speedrunner. No, it's not a career goal, I want to open a bar for that, but earning a world record time has always been something I want to work towards. With practice, motivation, and maybe a bit of routing, I will achieve it. 

 On the topic of Mr. Reace's class, there wasn't much to note. There was a funny interaction between me and a few classmates about living in a house versus living in an apartment, one of which told me to be humble that I'm not living on the street. I'll admit, she is right. I should be happy that I live anywhere and I believe everyone should, but I don't think she quite understands that I don't hate my apartment, I only wish I could live in a house. You don't work at a job continuously saying that you should be happy to even have the job, you work to get higher than where you are. You don't play a game and say to yourself that you and everyone should be happy to even play, you practice to get better and go higher. Maybe that's just my mindset, even so, I simply agreed and let it end there, else I'd most likely come off as disrespectful.

 My name is Michael Hill, though I wished I could change it to Luciel, I'm simply refered to as Mike. I am 18 years of age and my birthday is September 25th, even though I don't remember it usually. I like speedrunning any% games, writing stories for my characters, analyzing music and literature, mostly manga, and watching and learning complex martial arts.  I am currently taking Mr. Reace's literature course and hoping to graduate to achieve my dream, to open my very own bar downtown. 

 August 11th, 2021 About today's lesson, nothing. At least not anything particularly eventful. We did an analysis of a Tupac song, a song I already knew and studied before, but I will admit it was fun to debate about the hidden meanings and his wordplay throughout the song. There was a moment where I realized that Resist the Temptation closely mirrored the song Chris DoMeth by Hopsin, which I didn't notice until I heard it again, so that definitely was a realization that I liked.
