My Acknowledgments
My year in 11 AP Lang was made possible by a group effort of many people that were introduced into my life and projects that guided me through it all. I cannot leave 11AP without mentioning my parental unit, who were there through the late nights, who listened to me yap about pieces we read in class and who shared my curiosity with topics we discussed. Since the following likely does not include everyone who helped me through my journey, I want to formally thank all of those who helped me understand pieces and talked to me when we were forced to have co-ed conversations. The one who made everything possible: o I am deeply indebted to Mrs. Valentino, for her contagious and mocking laugh, for her out of pocket commentary, for her curiosity, and for her excitement for new discoveries. Still, most importantly, for her unwavering guidance and constructive criticism through this school year and her willingness to share her insightful advice with others. ...
