Extra Credit:
For one point extra credit: Rent the movie Dead Poets Society and watch it. Write up a one-page response comparing that movie to the essay "I Just Want to Be Average" by Mike Rose. All extra credit due to me by April 29th.

Journal #16: Instructions to your Body Double
Okay, imagine you are going out of town for Spring Break. Imagine that you have hired a "body double" to live your life for you while you will be out of town. Write an instructional note to your body double explaining information they might need to know about being "you" for a week (how to deal with mother-in-law, how to avoid ex's phone calls, how to discipline the children, etc.) Write for 10 minutes.
