Blog # 10

In English 101, I learned a lot. I learned about New Information and Old information which will help me tremendously in the future. I also learned TS/CD which is an amazing technique that will help me so much with my future papers. I also learned to not use "One" when talking about a person. I learned it is a cop out and is just like using "I" or "you". I also learned to always, always read over your paper. I also learned to how to properly cite and I will forever have owl at perdue under my favorites list on my computer.

Everything about the class made me feel better about my writing. I learned so much, that i really never knew before. I also learned a lot through the powerpoints. I learned what to do and what not to do, which will forever help me. It will help me next sememster and throughout my whole life. In the future with my writing I will always read over my papers, I will get a second opinion from a fellow student or a teacher, and I will always use TS/CD. Everything I learned this sememster will help me with the rest of my life. I never knew how to honestly really type a correct essay and now I do.

For my future I desire to be a Special Education teacher. To be a Special Education teacher, you require a lot of schooling. Throughout that schooling I know I will need to write papers. I will also have to write papers for scholarships or maybe even to look good at a job interview. Everything I learned I will use throughout my lifetime and I appriciate having such a great teacher who taught me such great things. Thank- You :-)

I did not do the ad essay. I waited way to long and it is all my fault and I am mad at myself for it. But all i can tell myself is it is a life lesson learned and to never procrastinate again. I did choose an article in People. It was a Kohls add. In the ad was an adult mother and her daughter dressed in Christmas Atire with Christmas decorations around them. After reading what was soppose to be done for the advertisment paper I think a different article would have been easier for me to be able to explain. I did like the ad I used though and it did appeal to me. If I had the money I would go to Kohls and buy christmas appearl and some decorations. It was a good sale too! The sex appeal seems to work for me because when I see an ad for sexy clothes or good smelling perfume it just makes me want it. Advertisments have all different good appeals that are very intriging.
