Chapter 4: This is getting kind of interesting. More things are happening with Anne and King Henry.
I don't really understand why Anne picked out a ship ring for Henry. Why is she getting him a ring if they aren't even married or engaged yet? Also, I'm not understanding what Anne's letter is really talking about or why she called herself a servant.
Chapter 5: This chapter is really confusing. Does Anne's dad have another wife or am I missing something? Who is Lady Elizabeth? What are the adults talking about and why do the girls have to go play in the garden? I think it's really sweet Wyatt wrote that poem about Anne because he's loved her for so long. What kind of game are they playing, and why is that locket so important to Anne?
Chapter 6: Since when did Anne have a brother? Some of these things just aren't making sense to me. How are people in the real world not noticing that their friend is gone? Will she ever go back to herself? Did her real world life just go on pause or something? And also, what does the signature mean on Henry's letter?
Chapter 7: What is a 'Book of Hours'? This chapter kind of made me laugh to myself because Anne can't stand Katherine and she has to continue rubbing her feet and stuff while she's going behind her back and running around with Katherine's husband. What is the date? How much longer until it's the end of the year when Henry and Katherine won't be together anymore?

Chapter one was confusing to me. Also, it was boring in the beginning. I didn't really know what was going on and there wasn't really anything there for me to try and grasp to get the concept.
Chapter two was more interesting than Chapter one. But I'm still a little confused. Is the Author Anne? Is she writing as herself in the situation? Is she writing as if she is someone else instead of Sarah Morris? It was interesting how she was feeling nauseas then all of a sudden she pretty much passed out and entered into this whole different world. Where did you get the idea to do that? What gave you ideas to write the book and start it out like this?
Chapter three is interesting to me as well. The story has captured my attention. It is seeming like this story so far is a little like a Romeo and Juliet kinda thing, but with more women involved with Henry than just one. It makes me wonder what will happen in Chapter four.
Chapter four kind of surprised me. How can your dad just tell you to say yes to some old guy asking you to marry him just because he is king..? my dad would freak out... I also don't understand why they are going hunting, but I'm still trying to figure it out. Im still wondering if the author is actually Anne or if this is a dream to her or what.. still confused

When reading the page 432 really helped me. It showed me a few examples of how I can make my papers better by using clear organization and how to analyze cause and effects.
Also, pages 434 and 435 helped by answering some questions I actually had and also giving me other page numbers I can go back to if I need a detailed explanation/answer.

Essay
The rough draft is used to get the main idea of what you'll be including in your paper and how it will be set up. Also to express and connect ideas, it shows you what you should change and how to rearrange ideas to create a better layout, and how to make a better and more interesting story/essay. Writing the rough draft for me was hard at first, but once I started writing a little more than 2 paragraphs, it went by a little faster, and became a little easier.
These chapters helped me learn how I can be more specific and make my sentences and ideas more detailed. It also helped me to be more organized with my outlines, putting my ideas together, and how I can create a better thesis statement. The chapters I read helped me on how to get a better structure for my draft and finalized paper. It also gave me examples how to keep my audience interested, have a well written story, and how to increase giving better vivid descriptions. Also, the book showed me including exact feelings, thoughts; even ages can improve a paper as well.I'm planning on getting a tattoo very soon. My uncle passed away a few months ago, on November 6th. He and I were very close, and I have no pictures of him. It still feels like a big piece of me is missing, but I feel when I'm able to see a reminder of him daily it will become reality to me. It will be a way to help me cope and it will be a symbol of remembrance of my uncle forever.

Communication, writing, and reading. How often do you use those three words in everyday life? The answer would be daily. A few examples are listed below.
- Spending time with family. Well, to spend time with family what better way to do it than communicating? Talking with each other about the day, events that happened, etc. all use communication.
- Writing a grocery list. Grammar and writing are pretty much the only two factors, other than your thought process, that you use to create a grocery list.
- Cell phones. All three of these things can be used on a cell phone. Communication is used with sending e-mail, texts, and also making phone calls. For texts you would use reading and writing.
- Paying taxes. This is probably one of the few times a year an adult actually dreads knowing how to read, write, and even communicate. In order to pay taxes you will use all three also. Even when filing taxes online you still have to be able to sign your name, read exactly what you need to include in the paperwork, and to communicate with the government (and/or the Mr./Ms. that helps you file them).
- Buying cars and a house. It's pretty much the same as paying taxes. You will have to fill out paperwork, sign several places, and communicate with the salesperson to try and get a decent deal on your vehicle or soon to be new home.
- Social media sites. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest. To use all of these you will be reading everyone virtually says. You can also communicate with friends, relatives, etc. by writing comments, messaging, tagging them in photos.
- Doctor appointments. You will need communication to be able to call and schedule your appointment. You will need to be able to speak to your doctor or nurse to let them know what's been going on and how you've been feeling. Reading would be included, too. If you were prescribed a medication you would like to be able to figure out what it is you're supposed to be taking and the side effects to that certain medicine.
- Schooling. Communication is very important in schooling as well. As is writing, reading, and plenty other skills. You will most likely have presentations, which include you standing and talking in front of your classmates and teacher. You will need to know how to read and write for when you have papers and essays also.
