But you can tell he’s trying really hard to pass the test to get the research done on him. You can really tell he wants became for intelligent, it's admirable of him. This is my journal entry for pages five through eleven. In process report four, Charlie is doing poorly on tests.

man with a mental condition was seen as fragile. To further his intelligence level, he attended the Beekman College center for retarded adults. His desired self was to become intelligent. “If the operation works good I’ll show that mouse I can be as smart as he is even smarter” (12).

When we are having fun, time passes swiftly away. In contrast, when we have nothing to do, time hardly passes by. A second seems longer than a minute, a minute longer than an hour. However, 10 hours seem just 10 minutes when its fun, when we are engaged in something we enjoy doing. When we talk with a broader point of view, we say life is t short to live to the full if we are enjoying our life and still have millions of things we want to do but know we can’t because life’s just too short.

the fox is bad, duplicitous; the crow vanity is strong. But as the growth of the age have to say once again read the fable, my view is different, now stood in the perspective of a more rational analysis of the causes of this story. Now read the story again, the fox has left a deep impression on me, I think he is very smart, he knows use each other's weakness is clever to reach own purpose, smart and skilled. His language is a lot of skill, how beautiful, he praised the crow to crow says his faults
they will get something out from it. This can relate to me because I love challenges even though sometimes I know I would fail, but I still tried my best. For example, in math class, most of the time I couldn’t understand the problems even after my teacher went through the process of solving them.

He said he wishes he could have another chance to be smart again, and he “doesn't know why im dumb agen,” (Pg 18). If he have never did this surgery, he would not have to deal with this pain and suffering of missing to be smart again. Even if he was going to be forever smart, he was going to die very soon.

Algernon,” by Daniel Keyes the character in the story, Charlie, is a guy that is not very smart. Charlie could’ve been used a lot for experiments in the past a lot, so he don’t want to be in any more experiments. Charlie was right by trying to fail the test he took. On page 201 the author stated, “I had a test today. I think I failed it and I think that maybe now they won’t use me.” Charlie wasn’t that smart by thinking that the doctors could use him

being successful meant to me. I knew that I wanted good grades and to get stronger at the gym but I did not have much of a better idea than that. In two of my classes teachers introduced the idea of SMART goals. SMART is an acronym that stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound.
