Final blog

I liked the writing What I would learn, because i would learn to cure cancer. I lost my grandpa a year ago and think that if I knew how to cure cancer or at least help it that would be a great thing.

The writing I liked least was the one about the word blue. It wasn't something I really felt I could elaborate on because the word blue means sadness for me.

I noticed that my writings got longer, and seem to have more detail as the semester went on. When we first started I didn't type very much but as we have gotten to the end I typed a lot more.

I think I would change the content of my writing. I know it's called free writing but sometimes I feel like I can get off topic quick, and I don't think that's always a good thing especially if you were writing an essay.

I liked that we didn't do but one essay. I'm not the best at writing essays, so for me that was pretty good. I realize that writing is  something that I need to work on.

What I liked the least is that besides our blog I didn't feel like we had any actual homework, and as odd as this sounds I enjoy homework. Even if we had to do a worksheet or hand write a journal.

What I would do differently this semester is maybe try to be more focused on what we are doing. Sometimes I can get easily distracted so being focused on the task at hand would be great.

What I learned about myself is that I don't really enjoy writing very much. The blogs are okay because they are short but if I were to have to write a long essay then I sometimes have a hard time thinking of what to write, and how to put it on paper.

I think maybe requiring the blog to be turned in every week so we actually did it. I can say I'm very good about doing the free writing and saving them but I know some of the other students have been scrambling to get them posted and actually done.

I would give myself an A, because I've been present in class, and I participate in discussion and group work. I have done what is asked of me, and feel like I have done things to the best of my ability.

Pigeon impossible..

It was a sunny day and I noticed a man sitting on a bus bench, and he had a bagel in his hand. I was very hungry so I went over to the bench and tried to get him to share his bagel with me. I sat with him for a while and also noticed he had a brief case with him as well. Since he didn’t want to share the bagel I got into the brief case and noticed many bright and shiny colors so I decided I might start pushing them to see what would happen. Many different guns popped out and I began flying around in the brief case.  Then the man wanted to give me the bagel after he knew that I could push any and all buttons inside and one was for a missile so he thought he needed to act fast. The man tried to give me the bagel but I didn’t want to take it because I knew it was a trap. The man knocked me out of the way from the brief case and took it and he had it aimed towards the missile so he could go and stop the missile. I followed the man up into the sky towards the missile because he still had the bagel that I wanted. When we got closer to the missile the man dropped the bagel down towards the ground so I followed it so I could have it. After the man blew up the missile he landed safely back on the ground and he found me there and I was eating the bagel but I was also trying to pick it up and it was too heavy for me. The man looked at me and then up at the sky and then put on his sunglasses. As I was eating the bagel the rest of the missile that didn’t get blown up came down from the sky and…..(goodbye)

Can you imagine???

Can you imagine if cars were made of rubber? When I say rubber I mean like what pencil erasers are made of. It would be like bumper cars all the time. The rubber would have to be hard enough so it wouldn’t bounce you too far, but also soft enough to bounce. My thought is that if they are made of rubber maybe there wouldn’t be as many accidents, but I’m not really sure. The cars would have to be well tested before they could be sold of course, but I think after they were tested and everything got the thumbs up they would be so fun. The tires would be similar to what they are now just a little bit more of the softer side. The insides of the car would be like they are now unless someone created an engine that would not melt the rubber of the outside since the engine gets hot. It would take some great minds and experts to make this become a reality. I think it would help when 16 year olds go to get there license. They wouldn’t be so worried since the car is rubber. I’m still thinking bumper cars, and who wouldn’t want to ride in a bumper car all the time. Sounds super fun to me, and maybe someone might like this idea and go with it. Who knows, but I will keep on dreaming of rubber cars. Maybe it’s just me thinking this would be a neat and fun idea, and a great addition to cars.

I think winning the lottery would be great. I mean who wouldn’t want to win money? I myself play the scratcher games, but not a lot. I don’t spend more than $20.00 at a time. For me it’s just about scratching the tickets. I of course want to win money but I’m also realistic that I probably won’t win a lot. The most I’ve won is $100.00 off of a $5.00 ticket. That was exciting, and very shocking that I won that much. I saved it, and then the next time I won that much I went shopping a little with it. 

What if???

I wasn’t married

I was a boy

My dad and mom didn’t get divorced

I didn’t go to cosmetology school

I didn’t graduate high school

I were alone

Cars were made of rubber

Dogs could talk

            Divorce is not my favorite topic, but it is something that happens. I still remember the day that everything fell apart. I was 13 years old and had gone to my grandma’s afer school like I always did. Who knew that would be the day that changed everything. My mom came to picjk me up and she had fire and daggers in her eyes the second she opened the dooe to come in the house. She told me it was time to go so I told my grandma I would see her tomorrow but my mom said, “no you wont. “ I was very scared at that point, and what came next I don’t think I will ever forget. We went to our house which was maybe a block from my grandparents and after we got inside that’s when everything went crazy. There were stuffed animals flying, picture frames being smashed, and then a wedding dress being cut. Talk about nightmares happeneingn in the day time. I couldn’t believe what I was actually seeing, and I had no clue what was going on. I also remember the night my parents told me they were getting divorced. I couldn’t believe that what I thought a good marriage was, yet it was a lie. I asked many quesuions through all the tears and didn’t care for the answers, but then I got to the last one and barely was able to ask it. The question was , “Did I do something wrng?” Of course they said, “NO:. I just couldn’t grasp what was about to happen. At the time I couldn’t beliebe it, but now looking back it was for the best. I use to think what it would be like if they hadn’t gotten divorced and things hadn’t been awful. I don’t like doing the “what if” because everything happens for a reason, and I think two of the reasons are my wonderful step sisters.

Kindness

I feel that there aren’t a lot of kind people out in the world today. I remember growing up that when someone would say “Thank you”, I was taught to say, “You are welcome”. I feel like people in general don’t say those back or even to each other. Why is it so hard to be kind to someone? For me kindness is a “normal” thing. It’s rare if I don’t say, “please”, “thank you”, or “your welcome”.  It’s funny how sometimes after saying any of those I’ve been given strange looks almost like the person is asking me, “Why are you being so polite?”, and to me that’s just what you should say. I was told the saying, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” 

If I were invisible

                If I were invisible I would probably listen to conversations that are taking place. I sometimes want to know what people are talking about, but don’t want to have to respond. I sometimes just like being an ear. It can be sometimes a good thing to listen and sometimes bad because maybe you might hear things you don’t want to hear. I think of the expression to be a fly on the wall. There have been times where I know I’ve been the topic of discussion, and would like to know what’s being said and I know the person or persons won’t tell me so being invisible would help that

I believe list

·         My husband is a wonderful man

·         I am determined to reach my goals

·         My family can handle a lot of things

·         You have to work hard to get good grades

I believe my husband is a wonderful man. He is always doing things for others, always taking care of me, and just a joy to be around. If someone needs help, or needs something he will do whatever it takes to either get it for them or help them to get it for themselves. He doesn’t ask for anything in return he just does it. I know there aren’t many people that want or will help others and that’s kind of sad to me. I was working a job that didn’t “fit” me and he suggested I go to college. I wasn’t sure how I would do that and work a full time job. He then told me that while I was in school that I wouldn’t have to work at all if I didn’t want to. I couldn’t believe that he was saying this to me, and I was excited at the same time. I then thought long and hard about it and decided that he was right and that I should go to school. I made the decision with him and I quit my job and started school.
