continues. Within John Green’s, Paper Towns, the theme of veiled identity is enigmatically examined as five teenagers struggle to find themselves as well as the real Margo Roth Spiegelman, a “daring” and unequivocal “adventure” of a person.

I struggled with the new way of doing research, I originally started college in…

In high school, I wrote economic research papers for competitions and won trophies at a state level. I figured I had some sort of background in writing research papers because I’d already done it for the past two years of my life, and had to learn about appeals in Introduction to Public Speaking last semester. However, when I started writing argumentative research papers in English Composition II, it was extremely difficult. I felt like I wasn’t doing my topics justice until I truly researched…

writing my paper for the Cause and Effect, Problem Solving essay, I came in contact with a few challenges of my own. One of my biggest problems was the time strain. With working at least twenty-five hours a week, a lot of time that I could be working on school is taken up. Another difficult task I encountered was the citations. In my previous years of high school, teachers only required the use of parenthetical citations; therefore, I was unfamiliar with all other types when writing this paper.…

The 24-hour social media challenge actually made me grow as a person. The 24-hour challenge opened my eyes to many things like there is more than life than your phone and that when you are using your phone you don’t socialize. So while I was doing the 24 challenge I kept myself busy so I wouldn’t have to use my phone. I even went to the gym with my mom and sister to keep myself distracted which that was a good two-hour workout. As a person that just uses your phone 24/7, you don’t realize what…
