Jaren Journal #1 When I get nervous I try to make the situation as funny as possible, if a situation is awkward I will try to make as many jokes as I can or I will just make it as easy for me as possible. When it comes to these situations I will put in as many funny things to ease the awkwardness of what I’m presenting or saying. When I presented in chemistry I added as many funny pictures and funny things so that the people would take their attention off of me and laugh so then they wouldn’t have to be looking at what im doing. When I had to give a speech about reading in the 5th grade a make a joke saying that reading is for nerds, and during the speech I purposely messed up what I was saying so the speech would be funny.

    This book has great balances of love interests, actions, and internal conflict with characters. It has an interesting story so far with new pieces coming up every few chapters that are very important. Like Al attacking Tris, Eric talking about Divergents and how the rebels must be eliminated.

In this journal I will be predicting, evaluating, and questioning.

He tells us that Steve is "cocky and smart" ( Hinton 9). Two-Bit can 't stop joking around and goes to school for "kicks" (Hinton 10) rather than to learn. Dallas, he says, is "tougher, colder, meaner" ( Hinton 10) than the rest of them.
