My SL Experience

Today I wore my scarlet letter. My letter was "T", for timid, because I am pretty shy. Tons of people asked me what it stood for! And when I told them it was for a Scarlet Letter project, no one seemed to know of the book except Senor Barroso. I noticed that a lot of people were looking at the letter, I guess trying to figure out what it stood for. This drove me insane! I would walk by someone and I could tell they were looking at the letter on my chest. I have no idea how Hester did it! While I was reading the book, I didn't think wearing an "A" was a big deal- I didn't think it would be that big of a punishment. I was so wrong! Now I realize how hard it would be to live every day with people looking at the letter insead of me.
