2. 8/28 - What is bullying? How would you define it in your own words? Tell me about a time you witnessed bullying.

3. 8/31 - ASP Journal #1 What makes someone a true friend? Can you be friends with someone you feel like you have to compete against? Why or why not?

4. 9/5 - ASP Journal #2 - What might go through your mind if you returned, after many years, to a place where you learned an important lesson about life? Have you ever done this? If so, what was it like?
