It was a warm, breezy summer day in 2005, with the vibrant green leaves swaying in unison with the slight wind that sent the sweet aroma of the freshly cut grass around the yard. Fuzzy, my small mutt at the time, rolled around on the blanket that sat on the ground, wrinkling it up as he went. Little did we know we were about to be called upon by the Lord above to do a little bit of something new today. It was time for our weekly picnic that we always had with each other and my dolls. Just as we

For the love of grade, I said yes to volunteering. Had it not been given as an opportunity for Theology Class incentives, I wouldn't have attended. Well, as far as I can honestly remember that's how my attitude to this event was. I didn't know anything about Evert and I got no romance issues.

Evan Hartman 3/15/16 Writing & Film 12 Years a Slave Notebook Class Notes * Mise-en-scene is pretty much everything you see through the entire camera during a scene.

I would take out the desks sitting in the middle of the room and have everyone sitting
