Write about something that you can't stop thinking about.

 Prompt Response: Something I can't stop thinking about is graduating from high school. The idea of finally reaching this milestone makes me think about all the work I’ve done, the memories I’ve made, and what comes next in life. It’s both exciting and a little overwhelming, but it’s always on my mind.

Summary: We picked our classes for next year.

Reflection: Graduation will be bittersweet, because on one hand, I won't be in high school anymore, but on the other, I will be off to college.

 Prompt Response: A few days ago, I was in a car crash. It wasn't my fault, but if I hadn't been paying attention, it would have been much worse.
