A Lesson Before Dying: Chapter 3 Questions 1.How does Henry Pichot's insistence that Jefferson "did it" redirect the plot narrative?        He insistence that Jefferson "did it" to help support his opinion on how Grant shouldn't be able to visit Jefferson and also he believes that Jefferson "did it" and that he should also suffer the consequences. 2.   Miss Emma keeps saying that Grant "doesn't have to go" to visit Jefferson in prison. The narrator comments, "She was looking at me but not seeing me, and not meaning what she was saying either."

What is my dream

        My dream, as of now is to make it to a good college and study in music. I don't really know what I want to major in within music, but I do believe I want to help others open their minds up to singing. What makes this my dream is that I was one of those people who never really had an open mind towards singing. One day when I tried out for Ben C. Rain choir, and I realized that people have more potential than what they think. Not everyone is blessed with a talent and most who have one doesn't even know it.
