Reflection

Today’s lesson on writing a body paragraph was very interesting. I learned that I have a problem with finding my claim and giving suporting details to back it up. It is extremely difficult for me to not overthink the prompt and to wonder off of topic. I realized that I have to be wise on what claims I choose to back up my thesis statement because I will need to be able to have a claim that I can adress in different ways and from multiple events.

Reflection/ Daily Blog 2

In letters 7 to 9 Celia has taken Nettie's spot as Misters wife because Fonso is refusing to let Nettie leave. It seems as if Fonso's focus is to bring her down and make her feel like less as a woman, because when he was  describing Celia he was calling her dumb, ugly, and saying she was only worthy of cleaning up.

Facebook is a personal website where you can express how your day is going or what your daily routine is. Others may think that you should keep your personal opinions off the web, but if that's the case why are you asked " what is on your mind" when you open Facebook. In Fact, when someone comes into an organization they are not focused on how you operate on Facebook they are focused on how you operate on the job. In addition, when your working at a job they do not tell you that you are required to put a limit to what you post on Facebook nor do they ask you to list the name on your Facebook profile. That should say that your personal life or your web posts should not interact with your employment...

The Sorrow of War Blog Assignment 2

" Scenes from the northern battlefront began forming before him and he saw once again the Ngoc Bo Ray peaks and the woods of the Screaming Souls. Then each man in his platoon reappeared before him in the room. By what magic was this happening to him? After the horrible slaughter which had wiped out his battalion, how could he see them again?" (pg.86). 1. This quote relates to theme of loss because he has loss many soldiers in his platoon while in the war. 2. This quote provides details about the setting of him doing his duties in the war and MIA team. This setting helps classify the period of the 1970's because this is around the time that he joined the MIA team.

No human being deserved the torture I left him to suffer" (pg.94). 1.This quotation indicates a conflict with person vs. self, because Phan is beating his self up on the insi...
