ESSAY IDEA

What is your belief on life? Is it possible for us as humans to manifest our own destiny or not what is your opinion?

I believe we can incorrpuret this in class by having a class discussion and hearing everyone's opinion then finilizing what your opinion is and beliefs. Then, begging to find evidence and writing your essay. This is all based upon your own personal opinion.

TEXT ANALYSIS #1

           

                Obesity I realized isn't just an issue in the U.S., but all around the world. In my opinion there is numerous ways to stand up to obesity its just people these days have lost the drive and motivation. Society now are just so close minded and hopeless, a "cry for help". In my readings and searching on an art blog for "stop obesity" promotions. It came across my mind why do individuals do such harm to themselves? Why must we indulge into such foods us humans make? Why must we be so unhealthy? The answers to these question is laziness and how easy life really is during this futuristic time. We have such things as microwaves, frozen foods, and the worst of them fast food restaurants. This Leads to why the hell not use these 3 decent ways to eat a meal?! Which causes the obesity scene. Natural and organic foods need to come to the worlds conclusion and be used, we have such clean healthy resources that need to be neglected.

So as you can see I kinda went link bizzurk on this. But, All 4 of these links defiantly show the effect and prove facts on obesity and how it effects not just our nation but our world. These collection of photos show how obesity effects someones health and how it makes someone look. It's a terrible thing such a beautiful given body turns into something very unhealty and "dirty".

REFLECTIONS ON WEEK 1

1. I believe there will not be anything that will effect my work in school this year, I plan on trying my hardest this year and not letting personal issues effect my education. I have my own personal laptop and have interent access so I don't believe that will be an issue. But, I do not have a smartphone just a simple text and call cellphone so if I were to be somewhere away from my computer I won't be able top check my blog or emails. My transportation is supported by my grandfather and aunt who I live with and understand that my ways of getting to school is on them. My friends and family support any dream I have and if they ever plan not too I still won't ever change my perspective. My schedule doesn't consist of much as the past besides photography, and music I don't have a full schedule.

2. I must say my best learning experience have had to be last year, my junior year in the English Lit. class with Dr. Preston. At first I seemed to be an eager and get down student but I began to slack off. Until, Dr. Preston began to inhabit our passions into our learning that really caught my eye since I was able to enable the one thing I have the drive for, photography into my learning of modernism.

3. I'm most excited for what projects Dr. Preston has in store for us and all the great teachings he has for us to learn by. I believe it will make a practical difference in my life by seeing what I as a person can do just by one blog, one voice, and one mind.

A TRULY INTERESTING PIECE OF NON-FICTION

The interesting piece of non-fiction I read was about one of my favorite bands, The Velvet Underground. From reading this I learned that  the band was cited by many critics as one of the most influential groups of the 1960's. The Velvet Underground album sold only 30,000 copies in its early years, but everyone who bough one of those 30,000 copies soon after began a band of there own. The most interesting fact from them all is the manager of the band was, Andy Warhol who's known as a famous pop artist.

WHAT IS EXPOSITORY COMPOSITION?

Expository composition is a type of writing where the purpose is explained and described.

MY BIG QUESTION!!!

My big question is, Does God exist? Where did we come from? What made us? Was it really two human beings such as Adam and Eve who made us? Was it mammals such as monkeys? or is it just atoms and molecules and the power of the universe who had made us humans and our planets were surrounded by.

IT'S ALL LATIN TO ME!

dimidium facti qui coepit habet: sapere aude, incipe
Translates to "He who has begun is half done: dare to be wise! Make a beginning!"

The relevance of this quote to this course is explaining what us as seniors must do to not just begin our senior year but to begin our future.
