In “The Interlopers” by Saki, Ulrich and Georg view each other as interlopers, outsiders intruding on their land and their lives. Think about a time when you felt like an interloper or when someone else felt out of place in your world. How did that situation affect relationships, emotions, or outcomes?

 Prompt: A time when I felt like there was an interloper in my life was whenever my grandparents visit. I don't hate my grandparents, but they make everything come to a standstill whenever they visit. Weird creams and grapefruits fill the house, and somehow they are always where I'm trying to go and want to be. Endless scratching on the floor from a mangey dog going up and done the halls.

Summary: Today, we read "interlopers" and answered questions on common lit.

Reflection: It got pretty loud because of the sub, but I ended up getting my work done still.

Reflection: I already set my goals, but it's nice to reflect on what I'd like to do for the year. 1.  The first goal that I would like to achieve is to go to the gym two hundred times in the year of our Lord 2026.  This is important to me for my physical condition and for the routine sharpening of the mind to a razor's edge.   I will accomplish this by following my push, pull, and legs workout plan. While giving time for rest and recovery. The most important part of consistency is knowing when you need rest, so I will sleep 8-10 hours a day and make sure my diet is consistent and reasonable. 2.  My second goal is getting my driver's license.   This is importan...
