Final reflection blog post

          This summer I believe I have improved in my overall writing and much of it has to do with my blogging. Writing every day for 21 days straight has really pushed me to my full writing abilities. I never knew the talent I really had. I always thought writing was not only the worst subject but my weakest capability as well. I always dreaded when a writing assignment came up and procrastinated it to the end, every time. 

          When we were first assigned this I was not looking forward to having to type something every day and honestly I didn’t have faith in myself to do so either. I thought, "What am I going to write about? My writings going to be boring, and I’m not good enough to do this." But after we got going and I started writing about things I’m interested in and that really mattered to me. The blog began to become a place for me to just go, write, clear my mind and really express my thoughts. 

          At the beginning of this exercise it was hard for me to come up with ideas to write about and it would take me a long time to type everything I wanted to say. But as my page grew so did my brain. I began to think about things I was going to write about as I went through my day. I would get so excited just to come home and type about everything I had thought about that day, and that I wanted to tell my bloggers.

          Another thing that I really saw improve over the weeks was the time it took me to write. At the beginning I was typing anywhere from 300-400 words in ten minutes.

By the end of the three weeks I doubled that and I was writing a whole 800-900 words in ten minutes. 

         

          I believe the whole concept of a blog to write on for class is awesome. We had the chance to express our self’s in the way we wanted to. We got a chance to make it personal and we developed at our own pace, and improved our writing all our on our own, with help from all the resources Mrs. A provided us with and the help and comments of our peers. 

Journal

At the age of eight, an elementary school student is usually asked what they want to do when they grow up. At the age of eighteen, the student is still being asked the same question. As a teenager, it can be challenging to narrow down what one would like to do with the rest of their lives. It is okay if a student has not selected a major during their freshmen year of college. It has been estimated that about twenty to fifty percent of first year college students go in undecided and 75 percent of students switch their major at least once or twice before they finally graduate. Sometimes when a student graduates with a declared major, they end up not working in their field of study. Picking a major that one is interested in will benefit them so they can land a career that they are passionate about. Choosing the right career is tricky, but by analyzing the requirements of various careers, a college student is able to make the process easier.

One aspect of choosing a major is the amount of education required to prepare for that career. Many jobs require a degree above an associate’s, which is completed in two years. However, there are some well paying jobs that require a minimum of an associate’s degree. Some examples are dental assistants, physical therapy assistants, and registered nurses. The next level of education is receiving a bachelor’s degree in a specific area. It takes four to five years to complete this. Having a bachelor’s degree in business or nursing will not limit a person to an exact career choice, and they are able to branch out to other jobs. A master’s degree is one step up from a bachelor’s and takes an additional year to two years to complete depending on what the student is studying. A bachelor's degree must be completed before a person can move on to a master’s. The highest degree that one is able to accomplish is a doctorate degree. The amount of schooling is substantial, but not impossible to achieve. A student must decide how long they want to remain in school as one way to narrow down their career options. Becoming a doctor of any type of specialization would be out of the question if a student does not want to stay in school for a long period of time.

What Work Has Taught Me Jounral

I’ve changed a lot within the last few years, and I know it has been for the better. I owe alot of it to having a job and always having responsibility. I know a lot of people my age with a job where they look at it as just a place to make money. My job means much more than that to me. Having a job has taught me so much and has literally guided me in the right direction as far as maturing. I strongly believe that having a job as a teenager can provide a young person a sense of maturity and responsibility that will serve them well in the future.

All in all loved the work environment. I began to stop my bad habits and started to pick up hours. The person I used to be slowly started to fade away and I grew up. I started to act mature and be professional and decided to cut back on going out, and focus more on working.

Having a job has made me work my very best. Their standards are very high and slacking off is not an option. The way I work there has also rubbed off on the way I work in school, and I now put in a lot of effort in school to be the best I can. It’s helped me realize on what’s really important. My priorities are high, I have to admit, but I know I can do whatever I want if I just have the right mind set. Working numerous hours helps me focus, and I’m still able to concentrate on my school work as well. I don’t really have the time just to do nothing anymore. The duties and responsibilities I have are very important to me.

The knowledge that I have picked up from working is going to be helpful for me when I do transition to my next job. The customer service skills I’ve developed are great communication skills, having patience, and handling common problems. A few years back, I wouldn’t even be able to imagine that I’d be here now and I can’t wait to see where I go in the future with the motivation I have.

Working has affected me in many ways. Sometimes I choose to stay in, rather than going out. I’ve also learned what the true meaning of a dollar is. The money I have is the money I’ve earned. When I’m out buying things, I now second guess myself and ask, is this really worth it? I have been taught to listen to everyone’s opinion and to keep my thoughts to myself if they aren’t respectful. My attitude towards certain situations has changed. I’ve watched customers come in with a terrible attitude and act so negative about everything. It may sound silly, but they have showed me that I don’t want to present myself like that, and that I rather be positive.

I do believe that a teenager who has had job experience similar to mine will find it valuable in their future. I do believe keeping a job and working hard is something that’s very important.  I believe having a job as a teen can help someone make smart decisions not only now, but later on in life. These skills I’ve learned, I know they will follow me. I’ve learned how to be responsible, respectful, and reliable. Words will never be able to describe how thankful I am to be apart of such an awesome team.

Journal

Georgiana’s life is about to turn for the worse because of her handprinted birthmark. Her efforts are to always love her husband, but Georgiana is also knowledgeable. While Aylmer is away from her, she starts to read all of his recorded experiments. She finds out about his experiments that were successful or lead to failure. Georgiana understands his experiments and now loves Aylmer more than ever before. She is astonished by all of his achievements and will never second guess him. Georgiana ends up crying and whimpers, “it has made me worship you more than ever” She is now completely drawn to the fact that his procedure is going to work and is anxious to obey what he wants done to her. But in the back of Georgiana’s mind, she must somehow know that there is a chance that the procedure might not work. Georgiana is smart enough to know that and should be aware that Aylmer is about to perform a risky experiment on her. She knows that all his experiments do not work, and this should warn her about trusting her husband. However, she puts that aside and still wants to be a good wife instead of her own person. It is now time for Georgiana to drink the mysterious liquid. She does so and then falls asleep. She awakens and murmurs “my poor Aylmer” . She continues to whisper that to him. She then goes on and explains to him that he has “rejected the best the earth could offer”  Then lets him know she is dying. The whole time Georgiana knows she is going to die. She knows it because when she touches the flower it dies. She knows all along, but does nothing to stop it. She is intelligent, but is willing to risk everything to do what her husband wishes.

Yes, the birthmark is now gone, but at a tragic cost, But no, that is not the only thing that is gone. Her life. She dies because of doing what she is told by Aylmer. She lives her whole life suppressing her deepest feelings and not standing up for what she believes in. Georgiana could have stopped the experiment from happening, but she valued her husband’s happiness rather than her own. In the end, the only thing left is a failed experiment and a dead body. Aylmer must be happy that Georgiana listened to him and chose to be his ideal wife. 

Journal

Georgiana is unable to hide her emotions about her birthmark and appears to be vulnerable. She begins to fear that the birthmark stands between her and her husband’s love. One night she voluntarily brings up the subject about the birthmark. She asks Aylmer about his dream from the night before. She is now referring to her charm birthmark as an odious hand. By the way she is mentioning her birthmark, the reader can tell she is becoming hostile towards it. Georgiana now brings up the phrase that Aylmer screamed out in his dream: “it is in her heart now; we must have it out” . From this point on, Aylmer has done enough criticizing and Georgiana now despises her odious hand. She is worried that if she gets the operation done that her face could be deformed or maybe the stain on her cheek is as deep as her skin. Aylmer comforts her and claims he has spent a great amount of time researching this procedure. Georgiana can tell her husband is very eager to make the change so she agrees to it because of him. She desperately says, “let the attempt be made, at whatever risk. Danger is nothing to me; for life, while this hateful mark makes me the object of your horror and disgust…” She has completely changed her mind about her birthmark and wants to make him happy so she can be happy too. Georgiana is showing how deeply affected she is by the thought of her husband’s displeasure.

Journal

In the short story, the reader can tell that Georgiana is very insecure about her looks once Aylmer points out her flaw. Aylmer asks her whether she has thought about removing it. She responds and is trying to brush off the question. She says, “it has been so often called a charm, that I was simple enough to imagine it might be so.” At that point of the story, Georgiana does not know how upset her husband is about the flaw. As their conversation proceeds, he then starts to discuss his disgust about Georgiana's birthmark. He expresses his concern: “...you came so nearly perfect from the hand of nature, that this slightest possible defect, which we hesitate whether to term a defect or a beaut, shocks me, as bring the visible mark of earthly imperfection.”Georgiana, of course, does not agree with his statement and is at first resistant to listening to him. Aylmer starts putting negativity in her head about her birthmark: “Ah, upon another face perhaps it might...but never on yours”  Georgiana finally acts out and argues back, which is stunning for a person who usually is so submissive. She is the type of wife that will treat her husband like her master. She cries, “then why did you take me from my mother’s side? You cannot love what shocks you.” Georgiana is feeling very insecure because the man she devotes herself to is suddenly making her feel not good enough. Typical Georgiana must do something in order to please her husband to make him love her again.

Journal "The Birth Mark"

Imperfections make a person unique and different from others in the world. Flaws are not necessarily always a negative feature in a human being. However, to some individuals something imperfect can drive them to a fatal obsession about the imperfection. In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story "The Birth-Mark," Georgiana, a beautiful and almost perfect woman is willing to change her imperfection on her cheek to please her husband, Aylmer, to become his ideal wife. Aylmer continuously points out Georgiana’s disturbing birthmark and will do everything in his power to get rid of the flaw that lies upon her pale cheek. Georgiana tragically relents to her husband’s pressure and this destroys happiness that both of them could have shared.

            Georgiana is the type of wife that will do whatever it takes to please her husband. Aylmer believes she has an odd looking birthmark and is devoted to persuade her to remove it. It is in the center of her left cheek that is a singular mark that is deeply interwoven with texture and substance of her face. It is similar to a handprint many people would say. Georgiana also has very nice complexion; however, when she gets nervous her eye-catching birthmark disappears, then reappears once she turns pale again. Georgiana’s lovers say that a fairy laid their tiny hand on her cheek as a baby; that is why it is so special. Men are drawn to her: “...desperate swain would have risked life for the privilege of pressing his lips to the mysterious hand”. Her birthmark is something special to her and she has gone her whole life without thinking of it as something she should feel shame or regret about. But unfortunately, her husband whom she loves so much, decides to pester her about the situation. Georgiana has grown to please her husband, so she knows she must do something about her birthmark for it to be fixed.

Journal I believe reflection

            This I believe essay has so far been my favorite assignment this summer. What I liked best about it, is how it was broken up into many steps which made it less stressful, more personal and easier to complete.  This assignment was the best personal narrative I think I’ve ever written, just because I came up with it all on my own and it was a topic that really meant a lot to me. Normally a personal narrative has more guide lines on what it has to be about, and you usually just end up using the story that best fits the rubric. But with this one I felt it was really my own true words about what I believe and why I believe this way.   When we completed our, I believe list it had my mind thinking about all the things I truly believed in, and how I could expand on all the topic I was writing. Creating the list my brain really started thinking, and I was really proud of how long and detailed my list was for the amount of time we were allowed.

            I also really enjoyed being able to read what the other members of my writing group believed in. I felt like after reading everyone’s essay, I had known them their whole lives and we were then connected in a different level. The one thing I would change is maybe not having so many people in each group. I loved being able to give everyone my input and read about them, but by the last one I felt like I was saying the same thing and that the last essay I edited didn’t get as good as advise as the first 3.  Reading everyone’s comments on my essay truly made me happy. Not only from all the good reflection of my group but also because of constructive criticism they had provided me with. I didn’t even realize that I had turned my essay into our group discussion with weird paragraphing or that I needed to expand more on my own experience until I read the comment of my group. I believe the honestly and great advise of my group truly helped me improve my writing.  I really enjoyed this assignment and If I had the chance to do it again I would chose the second thing that I believed in the most on my list and enjoy writing about it just as much as I did this topic. 

Bloom journal

After looking at and reading about the Blooms Taxonomy chart, I know understand how your brain develops, and how we move up the chart as we complete a task or in this case improve our writing. At the very beginning of the summer all I had is past knowledge from years before, and was trying to remember it all as we got started. Then as we began reading the heart and the fist, I was then at the comprehensive level. Not only did I have to read the book, but I had to really understand and comprehend what I was reading so I could then discuss and write about what I had read with my class mates.

When we created our blog is when I moved up to the step of application. We were required to create something I had never done before, but I did however have a Myspace back in the day. Even though I had never created a blog I used my past knowledge to realize it was similar to how I would set up my profiles on Myspace. I loved creating the blog, and even though I didn’t know exactly what I was doing. I analyzed the website. I messed with everything and explored all my options until I had it perfect. Not only did I have to analyze the blogger website, but I also had to explore Mrs. A’s classroom and our classroom to find my way and do the best I could this summer.

I believe I moved up to the synthesis stage when I began to free write on my blog more offer.  I began to notice words I used to often and I realized I was a better writer than I thought. I always dreaded having to sit down and write a paper. But when we were able to just free write on our journals everyday it was relaxing and it made me proud of myself and what I was capable to do.

This past week we have been focusing on editing of writing groups essays and our own which has pushed me to the evaluation section. I had to examine and judge their writing and recommend my opinion on how to improve their essay, as they did the same thing for me. Now I have been editing my own paper, making revisions and trying to make it the best it can be.

This is my first time being introduced to the Blooms chart and I love it. It really is true and everything about it makes perfect sense, especially using my past experiences to really show my growth as a writer.

Journal The beautiful country of Switerland

One country I traveled to is the beautiful country of Switzerland, officially known as the Swiss confederation, is a landlocked country in Western Europe bordered by Germany to the North, Italy to the South, France to the West, and Austria and Liechtenstein to the East.  Switzerland is about 2 times the size of New Jersey, covering 15,942 square miles.  Switzerland is sometimes referred to as the “roof of Europe” because of the soaring Alps that cover more than half of the country.  Although Switzerland is predominantly a German speaking country, its closeness with the other countries brings also a lot of French and Italian language into Switzerland.  There is a lot to learn about this country and I believe Americans should learn more about Switzerland because of their economy, education system, low crime rate, culture and amazing landmarks of the country. 

Journal: English

Growing up, the school subject of English was most definitely not my strong suit.  There were a few people and some past experiences that helped me to become who I am in English today. One person in particular was my high school English teacher.  Not only did I have her in 11th grade but also as a senior in high school.  But before I begin, let me give you a little background story.  My dad had been a teacher at the high school I was going to attend for 20 years, therefor I knew all the INS and OUTs.  I knew most all the teachers and who you want to have and who you don’t.  I knew all the upper classmen and was ready to take on the next 4 years as long as I didn’t get the one particular teacher, Mrs. Waers.  She was that teacher that either liked you or did not and your grade reflected it.  Unfortunately for me I knew she was not a total fan of my father.  Mrs. Waers was a hard core Democrat and everyone knew it, Obama and her cats were her life and of course my dad had to be the one to make a joke one time that put him on her bad side.

The first two years of my high school experience went great, my English teachers didn’t really push me and that was the only subject I was ever worried about and they ended up being a piece of cake.  But then junior year came along and Mrs. Waers name popped up on my schedule.  I was traumatized and scared out of my mind, I honestly was prepared to fail!

            I remember the first few days hating her guts, she was so rude, snarky and entirely too picky, I truly didn’t think I was going to make it.  I didn’t understand how it was possible for a teacher to be so rude until our first assignment.  I went home and was really struggling and had no clue where to start.  I hadn’t been challenged like this ever before and I was stuck.  I knew I was going to have to ask her if we could meet and oh I was scared.  After a day of building up the courage I finally went and asked if I could stay after and she said, “YES!!”   I couldn’t believe it she actually said, “Absolutely I will stay here as long as you need!”  From that point Mrs. Waers and I were super close.

Mrs. Waers ended up being one of the very best teachers I’ve had to this point in my life.  Mrs. Waers was many things, but one of those things did not include being a fool. She took everything extremely serious, including failing grades. If she found out someone was failing she would take it upon herself to do everything in her power to help that person succeed. Personally, she spent countless hours after school helping me memorize grammar topics and going through examples, and helping me become a better writer all on her own time. She was so dedicated!  About halfway through the first semester I realized how much work she was putting into helping an ungrateful kid like myself; I decided right then that I was going to try harder and make her proud of me.  The effort paid off.  I put in a ton of hard work and Mrs. Waers continued to help teach and guide me to love reading and writing a little bit more.

            Reading and writing are both very important things and are a big part of our everyday lives. If it wasn’t for my not so very nice high school English teacher, who really all she wanted was to help, I think I would have maybe given up, and stopped trying to better my writing skills. 

Journal Monday June 29th I believe in forgiveness

I believe in second chances and forgiveness. I believe that people make mistakes in life, and I believe sometimes you have to mess up to actually learn your lesson. I believe there has been so many times in my life I have done something wrong and learned from the mistake and there has been times where it has taken me more than once to learn a lesson. Humans are not perfect, and sometimes people expect them to be. Why is that? 

From research and past experience, forgiveness for humans is so hard because we are so stubborn. When a person is hurt or let down by someone they trust, their pride and self-esteem are injured. The expectations or dreams you had for that person are let down, they disappointed you, and you feel like you gave away trust which can be very hard.

But when you think about losing someone in your life you’ve known forever over one time of lost trust, you have to think if it really is worth it.

As hard as it is to give, forgiveness is such an important thing. It has the power to mend relationships and heal a broken heart. It’s needed on both ends of a situation. The one who is in need of forgiveness likely has a heavy heart about it and feels a tremendous amount of guilt. They have to set aside their pride and apologize for what they’ve done wrong. At this point, the ball is in the court of the one needing to forgive. It is a choice and there are unforgiveable acts, but in most cases a little time will lead to forgiveness.  And I believe in forgiveness.

If forgiveness wasn’t such a powerful thing, God would not offer that up for us. As a catholic we have confession to ask for forgiveness of our sins. If the high power above can forgive us for anything and still welcome us into his kingdom, how could we as humans not allow someone back into our life’s after a mistake?

I’ve always grown up in a house of forgiveness where my family has loved me unconditionally no matter what, and had to forgive me for many stupid things I’ve done as teenager or did as a child. When I was going through my rebellious teenage stage, I remember a fight my mom and I got into. This is a day I am not proud of, but unfortunately remember very well. I was so angry at my mom because she wouldn’t let me go do what I wanted to do and she had taken my phone away. I was so mad at her I said, “I hate you and you’re the worst mom in the world!”  Of course I didn’t mean it but I was angry, and I had never felt so terrible in my life. My mom really is the best mom in the world, anytime I ever need her she’s there with advice or a helping hand. I don’t know what I would do without her! I love my mom and even though I hurt her with some hard words she still forgave me right away and still continued to be right my side no matter what.  Life has been a crazy journey for me, but never once has my family given up on me and I would never turn my back on them. 

The act of forgiveness is so powerful that it can destroy relationships completely or make them as strong as they’ve ever been. We shouldn’t take it for granted.

Journal for Saturday june 27th

Move in Day.

Today is the day our new home actually feels like home. We have been living in our house in Springfield since June 5th with only my bed room furniture a TV in the living room a futon for my roommate to sleep on. MY roommate’s family went to Florida the weekend we moved in for two whole weeks and of course she was the one with everything. Today we woke up at 8 am to prepare for the arrival of the family. We knew we were going to be getting of lifting on so we ate a good breakfast and mentally prepared our self for the day. Because after a full day of moving we both had to work at 5 until close. So around 10:30 the parents arrived in a big U-Haul packed full. I am not over exaggerating when I day you couldn’t fit another thing in there. We spent 2 hours just unloading the trailer and trying to fit it all in the living room and on our front porch. When my roommate told me she had a lot of things she was not over exaggerating either. She had 2 big white fluffy couches for us, a dining room table all of her bed room furniture, 2 big chairs a desk and boxes and boxes of decorations. Her family had just re decorated there house the year before and were saving everything because they thought they were getting lake house and ended up not getting one so Chelsea ended up with everything. The day was full of jokes and lots of nose sweet. I and Chelsea never really knew how strong we were until we carried every single thing off that tailor with very little help from her step dad. We did meet our neighbors across the street that day as well. She came over and brought us fresh cold lemonade with a card that had her number on it just in case we ever needed anything. We both told her we were taking it online this summer, and come to find out she is actually an English teacher at MSU. 

I think that’s about it for today.

journal entry #1 June 26

This being my first journal entry I had a little trouble coming up with what I was going to say. After thinking about it for a while I decided for the first one I am just going to write about my day. 

So to start off my roommate went home to St. Louis for the week, which meant I was home alone and I am a total chick when it comes to staying by myself, so thank fully for me my cousin could is only 9 days older than me has a house down here in Springfield as well so I was lucky enough to be able to stay with her this week. Moving on to the start of my day was when I first alarm clock went off at 8:30, that’s when I planned to get up, because I told myself I was going to shower before work today. Of course I ended up settling with an eh I’ll be fine if I don’t shower today and ended up snoozing my alarm 500 times and to finally wake up at 9:30. After waking up way later than I wanted I rushed out of my cousin’s house over to mine to get ready, and of course right when I got home it started raining. I am not a morning person and I already hate to work in the morning, but especially when it’s raining. Rainy days make me want to just lay in bed and bend watch Netflix all day. I slowly got ready dreading the day to come knowing I had to work a double. By the time I was finished getting ready it was still raining and I ran out to my car as quick as possible trying to dodge the rain drops. As I drove to work the rain got harder and harder and I was not looking forward to the run from my car into work. When I arrived at Colton’s the rain had slowed down a little and by one the sun was shining and we started to get busier. I am a server, so even though its stressful when were busy it’s also my favorite time because the busier we are the more money I can make! I finally got cut today around 2 just in time for a 3 hour break until I am right back in the same place until 10. 

I think that’s all.

I believe

I believe Father's Day will be busy at work. Today was father's day and it was really busy. I made a lot of money. I had to work a double and I was so tired at the end of the day. Working isn't so bad though because I work with my best friend Chelsea. She's also my roommate and she lives in the room right next to mine. We share a bathroom. We work together at Colton's Steakhouse and Chels is a hostess. She gives me good tables and helps me when I need it. I could talk about her for days lol. I hope that she reads this sometime. Not that she would ever look at my blog because who would unless you're in this class right? I don't know what to say any morse... Yeah so father's day was crazy! I called my dad this morning before I went into work and told him that I loved him and Happy Father's  Day and today there were so many big tops of huge families coming in. I really like serving there and I love all the people I work with. Sometimes it can be really stressful though. Like today. Today was one of those days. Today was one of those stressful days. Today was one of those really stressful days where you want to pull your hair out and go cry in the bathroom. I hope no one ever reads this  I feel like the things I'm saying are embarrassing and who would want to read this? I'm so sorry if you're reading this. Today was payday! Yay! Maybe tomorrow I will go shopping or something. How was your father's day? Did you spend it with your dad? Did you guys go out to eat? If you did I hope you were nice to the server. I understand if people can't tip well and stuff, but when we're super busy and I have so many tables and the customers are angry with me when I'm doing my best, I don't like that. Be nice to servers! I have no idea what else to say. I didn't get my dad a father's day gift but I did send him a card. Me and Chelsea got cards and sent them to our dads. I'm repeating the words I keep typing. I am typing I am typing I am typing I still have a minute to go. What do I talk about? I really like free writing but I have no idea what else to say... Well Bye

Jung Typology reflection

I've always know that my personality is an Extrovert, I have always been the one to speak up in any public setting or express my voice and option to anyone. I know I am a very opinionated person who is loud and out spoken. I am also a loving and compassionate person, I never like to see my loved ones sad or angry and if I do I always try my best to do whatever it is to fix it. I also always know when something is wrong or not going right. I can read people better than I can read a book, I notice people’s behaviors and what they say, and I like to think I am always one step ahead of people.  I am also I person who doesn’t like to be alone I am content being around people at all times and I don’t need much alone time. When I took the Jung Typology test my results were 100% extravert which I completely knew, and I think that will really help me in my writing by making it more real. I’m not afraid to speak or write how I feel which I feel can make me a better writer all together.
