    Essay On Dual Enrollment

    • 957 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Dual Enrollment English has been a very beneficial and productive class for me. I have been helpful. Throughout the second semester we’ve written paper about three big papers and I’ll be talking about my experience in writing those papers. Starting with my narrative from the first semester all the way to the last paper the multigenre, Dual Enrollment has prepared me for college and it’s safe to say that I am ready. I’m thankful that this class has showed me an insight of how a college class operates. My goal with Dual Enrollment English was to simply become a better and get a decent grade on all of my papers but as the year went by I realized that it takes effort in producing a well-written essay. My objectives changed and I realized that putting in forth just 50% of effort wasn’t going to be enough if I wanted to write a good paper. Second semester started off really exciting, I think the seniors were enthusiastic about almost finishing high school. I was really excited; I remember telling myself how I was going to be focused and perhaps receive my first 95 or 100 on a paper. The Augmentative Paper was assigned first and I was looking forward to writing this paper since it was a topic of interest. The outcome of this paper wasn’t what I expected but I could have done a much better job. One of my greatest weaknesses in writing has to be trying to get everything done fast and my informal Zegarra 2 language. In this paper I received a 85% and I believe I could have done better…

    I met Carl in the hanger the following day with a full, happy stomach. Sally had slipped me another fruit and nut bar with my oatmeal. The sugar in the fruit must have given me a high because I felt myself smiling. I was disappointed I didn’t see Evan at breakfast, but when the thought that I would be his wife tomorrow popped up it almost made me giddy. Carl was his usual horrible self. He barked at me to move the compartments again. It took me most of the day to move them all, but it was…

Because almost every normal person faces something they have to deal with, it brings out things they don’t usually face without an adversity. In many cases adversity makes people stronger. Although, in some cases people push themselves too far, like lifting weights. To see a result pushing your comfort level is mandatory, but if you push too far you’ll injure yourself and…

    The song "16 Tons" by Johnny Cash tells the story of a poor coal miner who could be considered part of the percentage of Americans who are permanently in poverty– a concept we discussed in class. I make this assumption because Johnny sings that after lifting 16 tons of coal in one day, the miner is simply a day older and “deeper in debt”, and that the miner owes his “soul to the company store”. This suggests that the miners’ debt is growing each day– perhaps a product of debt that is accruing…

    Symbolism is something or an object that represents someone or something, it’s important to some people. To people the symbolism and signs that represent things are the key to their happiness. When someone dies or is gone, they get or use a symbol to appear as a butterfly, tiger, or any animal or sign to appear as that person. Irony is something when you don’t expect the expected.
