This is a bad thing because not one paper was unique or stood out more than another.I personally think that a lot of college students tend to write what they think their professor wants to read, and not what they truly want to write themselves. There is no emotion attached to what they are…
Following the Tracks: My Journey from Thought to Paper “I pulled out box after box, setting them haphazardly around the room. My organization lacked something -- like, say, organization ...” – Richelle Mead If anyone were to walk into my room, on the fourth floor of Creswell or back on my home street of Rosebrook Crossing in Atlanta, they would find a large, dirty, and unorganized mess. My room has been this way since I was old enough to have control over the domain of my room, and despite many…
most of most mornings as I would sit watching the art of oration between two well prepared candidates. Unlike sports debate, writing papers was not one of my hobbies. In fact my mindset towards writing was that of abhorrence instead of dedication and care. As a result, the papers I turned in high school were hit or miss depending on how the teacher felt about my paper but usually my essay grades were ,needless to say, not As. However, deep down…
First, I prepared four cups of water, straws varying in length, 6 sheets of wax paper and aluminum foil, 2 stacks of toilet paper and paper towels, 2 metal sponges (1 copper and 1 silver), and 6 different types of texture and color sponges that I cut into small rectangles and circles. Next, I arranged the living in order for proper spacing for the fieldwork to…

Analysis of “Homemade Education” A mind is a masterpiece where a lot of ideas are flowing like a crowded traffic on street. Some of us might have the ambition to put that idea into a scripture that will live long. But the question is do we know how to clearly address our writing in a way most can understand? Maybe who knows our idea might be a mind blowing perception out there. Here I will be analyzing the writing “Homemade Education” written by the most famous, prominent and controversial…
Journal #1 Literary works are frequently observed by an abundance of individuals throughout a typical day, especially on a college campus. These books are generally catalysts for future coursework and are oftentimes viewed nonchalantly by their owners and dismissed as insignificant. These attitudes, commonly in line with those of the pragmatists', presume that literature has no “sufficient value” (Gillespie 16). Gillespie's article, “Why Literature Matters”, strives to disprove such allegations…
Family fiction is an important genre that allows readers to find humor and understanding in relatable situations. Whether it is divorce, a sibling rivalry, the death of a parent or any other myriad of problems that families endure, family fiction provides a novel way of coping, understanding and surviving. As Professor Gottschall states, stories are “often a major way we make sense out of and prepare for reality” and this holds true for the two stories we read in class last week. In “Reunion” by…
The Pillowman was the one of the 1st full plays I have seen. Personally, theatre has always been something I just never paid much attention too until my senior year of high school. However, sitting through this play was rather eye opening. I developed this appreciation for theatre. When I arrived at the forum I began looking at the program and the first thing I noticed was the amount of people who committed their time to the production. When the play ended I compared the amount of the names in…
