In reflection to my second speech in public speaking, I believe it turned out better this time than the last. When I got up in front of the class, I was a little shaken up. I really believe this was because I was too organized. As I stood at the podium, I felt overwhelmed. I realized I over prepared and I did not know where to start. I had my outline on my computer, flash cards and my speech well memorized. I didn’t know what to look at when I started my speech to make myself feel secure. When…

In Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried, the concept of truth is developed and bent and flipped in on itself over and over, especially in “How to Tell a True War Story.” In this chapter, O’Brien sets abstract definitions to the seemingly concrete idea of truth. These definitions of a “true war story,” as convoluted and contradictory as they seem, all ultimately prove to be true, just as all versions of a story are true because the story changes as the emotions that drive it change.

Conducing the analysis, I have discovered that everyone including myself sees me differently. A persons point of view is going to be different on their public self, private self, and their ideal self. Mostly everyone wishes they could be different or like someone they know, also what someone does in their spare time they might not do in public which starts your focus on your private and public self. Someone’s private self is how they are when they’re alone. When I’m alone it gives me…

Sleeping peacefully in her bed, Laura was cradling a pillow to her chest. The sun was beaming through her blinds causing the woman to stir. Usually, waking up was a simple task for Laura; she was a morning person after all. She groaned when the first beam of sunlight hit her face. Picking up her alarm clock on her nightstand, Laura looked at the time. “Ugh, why is it so early?” She placed her clock back on the surface and slowly began to sit up. She put her hand to her head which was throbbing…
