never been one of my strong suits. I remember in the early years of elementary school, I would be assigned to read for a certain amount of time each day—about 15-30 minutes—and I’d do it, because I knew I should, if only for the sake of knowing I really did my work. But reading didn’t interest me as a little kid; it seemed long and boring—I’m sure many relate to this. Over the years—to this day, in fact—I’ve practically only ever read books that were for a class. Of course, now I do have some interest
Writing Journey Have you ever been given an assignment where you say to yourself, “how the heck am I going to do this?” or maybe, “what am I supposed to write about?” Well that’s exactly how I felt, thought, and did with this writing journey. Coming up with something to say about my writing journey has been difficult. I would be bold enough to say nearly impossible. So impossible it’s like trying to get a camel through the eye of a needle. Okay that might be an exaggeration, but it has been
Throughout this class I have learn many different writing styles. We used APA form of writing to type our paper and essay. I have also learned that it’s good to take your time and spend more time thinking about what to write, other than just righting a paper right off back.

can make themselves. They can choose what to say, what to wear, and who to love. In a world like Anthem all of your choice and freedom is taken away. Everything you wish to do, you may not be able to. You never know who your parents are or who your real family is. You are born thinking government control is the best policy and best way. You can get killed and punished for something you think is right. You are raised thinking what is bad is the correct way. A world like Anthem, is a world many hope
downs. I graduated with a 3.2 GPA, even though it is not the best, I still am very proud of it. My first year of high school, I was the teacher’s pet but unfortunately that lasted for a year. Once I found a new group of friends, it got me into making bad decisions, and that was when my grades started looking poorly, and my weaknesses started to surface. Describe your academic strengths and weaknesses as learner, particularly in relation to reading, writing, mathematics, and critical thinking. Be as
Imagine writing a ten-page essay on something you feel very strongly about, then being told you have to reduce the size of your essay to only two pages. While this may seem like an easy task, I have learned from experience that while writing is difficult, taking away from my writing is much more complicated.

they wait, the opportunities go to someone who will not hesitate to take them. There is always that mentality that there will be other chances and that some will even be better, but one is always going to be haunted with the thought of what could have been of them if they only stopped waiting and got a hold of the opportunities. That conflict between a person and themselves will always linger just because they were too slow and let the chance that would determine their future just slip out of their
Educational Implications for Heidegger's Views On Poetry And Thinking ABSTRACT: I discuss some of the educational implications emerging from Heidegger's views on poetry, thinking, and language. Specifically, Heidegger's views on the neighborhood between poetry and thinking suggest that most accepted methods of teaching poetry are in error, because they ignore this neighboring relation. The importance of this relation is presented and clarified. I then discuss the implications of Heidegger's view for

In all honesty, loathe full would be the best way to describe my feelings about English, and on a good day tolerate could be used. The best way to describe English and me would be like Cersei and Tyrion Lannister. Anytime they come together something is bound to happen.
