Dear Dana,
Your blog is amazing. Does Stargirl really have a pet rat named Cinnamon? Interesting. Maybe you didn't intend to but two different diary entries in different posts at different times was great. I am glad you enjoyed the work even though I have a feeling that it is because you didn't do all that much during the lessons. Your blog is one of the best but you should still use the spellcheck especially for your contractions.
Your final grade is 98.
Yours,
Karen Noll Stanger

Reflection
I enjoyed this way of doing a book report very much and I don't prefer the regular way. It was worth while to spend so much time and i even think we could have spent more time on it. I didn't learn anything from these assignments but i learned from the book to be true to yourself and not to be what other people want you to be. I do suggest to keep on learning like this. There should be more available computers, though. Also, more free classes... and popcorn... and chocolate.... and movies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Ending
As Leo watches Stargirl step off her bicycle with her amazing yellow strapless dress he is dazzled. he watches her dance alone while everyone else is with their date. She didn't seem to care one bit that she is datless, she actually seems to be the happiest person there. Everyone there hates her and loves her at the same time, cherishes her happiness and independency yet are green with jealousy. Leo cant stand it. He cant stand not being there with her. He thinks to himself how awful he has been to her94 and how she didn't deserve it at all. What has she done? been unique? Fresh? Pure Hearted? he realizes what a mistake he has made and runs to her.
"May I have this dance?", he says. Stargirl beams. She doesn't say anything, just kisses him lightly on the cheek and they dance the whole night out with everyone. Yes, no one ignored or got out of the way. Everything was great again and from then and on Stargirl never was Susan again.

Enter The Book
If I would enter the book for a week these are the things i would bring:
toothbrush= hmmm...wonder why?
my ipod= I wouldn't go anywhere without it.
my clothes, make up, jewelry= to show Stargirl how to dress and act like a regular teenager.
a fold-up GIGANTIC deep pool= the setting is Arizona and there are no beaches
a picture of my family= to remind me of home

Diary of Stargirl 3
Dear Diary,
I'm getting more and more sad with every hour that goes by. I feel that life is getting more and more boring by the minute. The only thing I notice is that Leo gets more and more happy by the second. That is truly the only reason i am keeping this pathetic attempt at people liking me up. But today when i came to school with sandals and jeans, jewelry, red lipstick and nail polish, and eyeshadow Leo looked at me in pure shock, and good shock. he didn't even recognize me! He looked at me like I was some sort of goddess and I wasn't even close. I was so very, very normal. Right then and there he came up to me in a huge squeeze of a hug. and speaking of Leo.... I hear him coming in the front door; we are doing homework together. Bye!

Dear Diary,
Leo is teaching me how to be a normal teenager. I am so surprised at all these new things i am learning! I miss Cinnamon so much! I feel so empty without my pet rat. I feel empty without being me. I want Stargirl But i love Leo, so i will go through with the plan although even when i laugh and smile i feel like a dead zombie. I have to go. I'm going to go buy new make up and jewelry at the mall (yuck).
