Escaping from the past, focusing on the present, and fearing the future, one enters the honors English classroom taught by Mrs. Roll, the tenth grade pre-AP English teacher. Because summer flew to its end, students became one step closer to their biggest fear- school. By the time one reached Mrs. Roll’s class, the quote, “I won’t be your friend, but I will be friendly,” was drilled regularly in one’s mind. Everyday in the class, there would be daily reminders of this warning. To be in her honors class was a risk, but also the wisest choice of them all. Not everything will go the way it is planned, but a little critiquing might get the task completed. With Mrs. Roll preaching to students day in and day out, she barely has time to remember all their names; therefore, what time does she have to be their friend? However, she does contain time to be friendly.

Georgia O'Keeffe was a famous American artist who was born on November 17, 1887 in Sun Praire, Wisconsin. She studied at many art schools, including the Art Institute of Chicago, before dramatically changing her art style from representational to abstraction in 1915. Her highly abstract paintings were shown to her future husband, Alfred Stieglitz, and they were put on display at his world famous 291 gallery in New York City the next year. By the mid-twenties, she was one of America's most important artists.

After a movie she did called Moon over Miami in 1941, she received about 18,000 letters from the army requesting a picture and for her to be their sweetheart.
