I have really enjoyed my self this semester for English. I have never felt so comfortable in a class before. Yes I'm loud and distracting but thats who I am and if someone doesn't like it they can say it. I feel bad if i made anyone unconfortable but id rather them tell me so I know. I got behind on my work with alot of stuff that has happened this year. I meet some really good friends out of the class which i was scared at first that i wouldnt make any. I wish i would have gotten to know more the class more though. Everyone in this class is very nice and kind and i enjoyed that. I do wish thought there was more of a pessure though to get work handed in and not really go out of the boundries for the assignments.


Jody was a good teacher she was understanding of things. Shes very relaxed and fun. I like how shes very one on one with us.


The only thing i regret would be the abbsences but i cant controll what the world throws at me.


It was a fun class and I hope everyone in this class will be in a future class with me

Service Learning

Article posted January 23, 2013 at 09:24 PM GMT0 • comment • Reads 29

I think that the Winnipeg Harvest was a valueable experince. We got to learn how to work together as a team to put together something. We got to learn some social skills. Most imporant we got to go something for our community. We raised over 100 pounds of food. For a class of 8 I think that is pretty good. Each of us had a task to do from calling Winnipeg Harvest, to making posters for both RETSD adult ed schools, and from organizing the items. We did really good as a team.

I honesntly have no idea what would be thought provoking. To each there own I assume. Somethings get other rattled more than others. It's hard to put a key detail on what is though provoking. It could be anything from polictics, to school- related to even things that are happening in the world. Some people dont care to much about polictics and theres some that do. Some people care about what's happening in the world and some dont. To each there own,

I enjoy reading very much. My mom and grandma always read so I kinda grabbed thwe trait from them. Even though there re forms of reading are different I still learnfrom them. I like novels and magizines, cookbook, internet related, but I dont care to much for newspapers. The last novel I read was 50 shades of grey. It was alright I don't want to go into details for that one. I mostly like to read fiction but I don't find them as interesting. I also like to read books that I saw the movie first to get me more into the book and to get more detail about the movie/book.

Im sort of done the assignment. I didn't really find anything easy about the assignment. The hardest art for me was just getting everything down and trying to word it out. Once I had my connection down, theme, topic, point of view, conflict, and how they connected. Everything just was easier from there. Until I had to write it all out. The charts and vin-diagram was easy but not the whole writeing part. The only thing now is revise and editing which I'm not looking forword too.

My goal in the begining of the year was to pas. My goal still remains the same but I hope that I can do better than just 50 %. My goal now is to catch up on all my assignments and my major assignments and do them to the best of my alibities. I would like to work more on doing my assignments in clas and handing them in on time. To work to achieve these goals I need to do my homework, pay more attention in class, and to complete my work in class then hand them in.

Style

Article posted November 19, 2012 at 09:23 PM GMT0 • comment • Reads 87

I still honestly dont understand style. I understand it's the way the authour chooses to write. I know that alot of things have to do with style. The point of view, how they organize it, how clear there point and theme is. That is all I understand. The defineing of these make no sense to me. I think that style does affect how I read I wont really read stories that are 3rd person or really sad. If the books organizing is horrible i wont read it. With the new understanding of style i think it will effect how I read becuase i get more of an understanding

GROUP

Group disscusions are very important becuase oyu learn more infomation on the topic becuase not everyone thinks the same. It helps us learn to socialize with other people. I enjoy the group dissusions but i dont becuase i dont like to feel on the spot or watched.

MY PRIZE POSSESSION

Article posted October 15, 2012 at 08:01 PM GMT0 • comment (4) • Reads 126

The thing that matters to me would be my XBOX. When I get home from school I usally go on and unwind. This was the very first thing that i fully bought for my stuff that I wanted. Yes i have bought things for my self but this was by far the most expensive so far. People always tell me if you play alot you will be stuck into the game world, i personally think that is bull. My XBOX is my time to relax and do my things on it. I play online with family all the time and my buddy's. I have put in alot of money into the XBOX. From accesiors to games. My favorite game would be GTA 4. I love the Ballad Of Gay Tony the best. Its more interactive than Niko's. I play online alot with my buddy's the only down side would be the modders and the hackers. Modders and hackers are people that go into the game and mess with the settings so the game is basiclly what they want to be. This could be from them not being able to die or they make the towns into ghost towns or they will catch you on fire. The basic meaning to this blog is that i LOVE my XBOX lol its by far my prize possession.

THEME

Article posted October 10, 2012 at 07:25 PM GMT0 • comment • Reads 134

I think the theme would be keep your friends close but your emenys closer. Just how the guy went in there all cocky to see if the barber would kill him. When the barber was shaving him he could have easily killed him but he didnt because he wanted to keep his title as a good barber and probably also he wanted the captain to feel like he could trust him. So that he didnt kill him he showed the captain hey you can trust me but dont think i wasnt thinking of killing you. That's where i think the friends and enemy quote comes in.
