I usually do one line of my mother's side, and once my road block was cleared of who my 3rd great grandfather's father was, that arrived in Canada via New York and Albany in August 1785, the line was very well documented in Clan and Peer books. Other lines are obscured with the lack of records when they arrived, born, married, lived and died all before regular census records. So the quilt has many holes.

How many times do we feel stressed and stretched by the insane demands of the

Would you accept a hard, tedious job working for a wealthy man, who wanted his order to be perfect? In the book Johnny Tremain, Johnny had to make this very decision. Johnny should not have agreed to make the silver basin for John Hancock for three convincing explanations: The order needed to be perfect, It was a very tough job, and Johnny might not finish it in time.

Anna Quindlen did a good job in creating an opportunity for her readers to relate to her by mentioning her childhood memory of reading Green Eggs and Ham. One example is myself, I could relate to the topic of how something could change a person’s life. Although reading wasn’t what changed my life, I found something else that I believe was just as equivalent. What changed my life was art. For as a long as I can remember I was never good with expressing my emotions to people.

To Coach Depew My coach and my friend Who taught me how to properly hawk tackle and how to love my brothers. Who shows me the utmost respect, even when I do not deserve it. Who showed me that five monster energy drinks will not kill a grown man.

The bright lights illuminated the hallways throughout; making no difference in the time of day. Continuous beeping sound echoing down the hall. It seemed surreal, obscure at first but clarified later on. While my younger sister simply made a game of it, I interpreted the situation differently. The hospital was something I knew absolutely nothing about, but I was willing to learn its nooks and crannies.

Do you really think that cell phones are distracting? Well just in observation when having a simple conversation with someone sitting next to if they get a text they automatically focus on their phone. Could the distraction have a good motive such as an important meeting, important call from school, a learning tool or even an emergency situation? Well yes that could be argued, but just in our everyday life we seem to focus more on our phones than our surroundings. According to The United Nations of Communication and Technology Task Force (2005), “Cell phones are not just communications devices sparking new modalities of interacting between people, they are also particularly useful computers that fit in your pockets, are always with you, and

Mary Dejevsky mentions examples such as a Tube strike, where Uber drivers will temporarily raise the price, and exploit the increasing demand, right after calling ‘the caring, sharing economy the same old capitalist wolf clad in a soft furry sheepskin’. Besides the prices there are also the health and safety issues, which have become a joke. Mary Dejevskys viewpoint is clear, for her it is a post-capitalist solution which can result in shutting out the poor and underprivileged: “But there will also be those – mostly elderly and poorer people – who are doubly locked out”(p. 1, l. 47-51). Businesses such as Uber, claim a certain modernity through the use of new technology however these occupations existed a long time ago. One of the opinions

I love reading books and telling stories. I choose stories and books that I can relate to. When I feel a connection with the writer, I enjoy the book more. Using my experiences as a reader, I try to find ways to connect with my audience while writing and I found that story telling is the key to that connection. Storytelling is a great element to use when writing. It is not only a way to grab the audience’s attention; it is also a way to connect with them. I’m a great storyteller, because I always add my personal experiences to my writing and it helps me connect with my

It gave me more of an understanding of what incoming college students face when writing and what to expect in this more academically challenged environment. “What Is ‘Academic’ Writing?” by L. Lennie Irvin is a short story about how first-time college students and how they think to have these kinds of expectation figured out to write an academically correct paper and the troubles they face. He also mentions the Importance of developing a writer’s sense, the myths about writing, the three most common types of college writing assignments and talks about the complex literacy tasks in assignment students struggle with. I really thought his story compare to a lot of what was happening in my life. I was struggling as a writer and I thought I knew what the expectations were going to be heading into college, but I didn’t. The number one thing I would like to focus on and compare it to my life as a writer are the myths people have about

I am looking to improve on this challenge as a writer by focusing on explaining my quotes and explanations in a more supportive way that relates back to the thesis. Writing can be improved upon endlessly by minimizing your challenges as a writer.

Novel and movies is the best methods to express the writer’s image. Reading from a variety of authors there is one author that hooked me its Nicholas Spark. Spark was born on the 31st of December 1965 in Omeha, Nebraska. He got his education in University of Notre Dame. Spark got married and got five kids two girls and three boys. Many of his novels are mostly inspirational and tragedy. The most interesting novel that interests me is A Walk to Remember. This novel inspires me in so many ways it’s a romantic story, it’s also a true love story that touched many people in different kind of generation. That was the reason why I picked the novel and also to compare it and contrast it with the movie. Also I will tell if it’s one of the three option;
