Most Important Skill

       By far, the most important thing I've learned so far in class this year is TWIST.  It's a really simple concept, but it takes more than just memorization to figure it out.  I found myself struggling at first on understanding it, but it eventually just finds its way into your head until you just know it.  It really helped me in recreational and educational ways.  Recreationally, when I'm reading a book for fun, I can use TWIST to uncover the story in ways I would never have done before and learn new things.  Educationally, I can use TWIST in reports to make them more in-depth and understandable, and more importantly, show that I knew how to interpret how the book was meant to be interpreted.
       I definitely enjoyed learning TWIST and I'm excited to see what the rest of the year has in store for me. :)
