That one Jewish Disney Movie... Oh wait.

1. I am using a late coupon on this, so I am not completely done, but I will still comment on how it is different. I personally like writing fiction more, because it allows me to be more creative, and that is one of my favorite things about writing. As far as the strengths of the genre, I think it is a great avenue to take to describe an event that happened to you. One of the weaknesses of it, at least for me, was that it only has a limited scope as far as the time frame. I wanted to write about a longer period of time than just one event, but it doesn't really work in the personal essay format, so I had to cut it down (which bothered me). It made it harder to tell the story, or to explain how things had gotten to one point, which is one reason why I'm not done yet.

2. Well the role of reading is a very important one because reading other people's writing helps you to 1. improve your vocabulary to use in your own writing, 2. helps you learn new writing styles and hopefully improve your grammar and 3. helps you gain appreciation for writing and developing your ideas into a written work. You can't really skip the reading step or else your writing will be of substantially lower quality. Whether it is because your vocabulary is underdeveloped or your grammar is below average, I think it would hinder your writing. I think that adage is a little fruity, but it might be true. I picture it perhaps more like a sponge. The sponge has to absorb all the water to get itself wet, which is the only reason it is able to clean. Once it has water in it you can squeeze it and use the water inside of it to clean whatever surface you have deemed dirty. So, the writer has to absorb all the information available from reading books, and once they have, they can write their own works. That analogy was freakin' sweet.

3. I think my favorite piece would have to be the Mike Vick play where a gang war ensues because of his detainment in the prison. It got a little ridiculous and, personally, I thought it was a little anti-climactic at the end. However, it was a lot of fun to write and I thought it was fun to read too.

I think the short story unit was probably my favorite, though the poetry unit was fun at times as well. My short story was fun to write, and I had some fun poems also. So I think those would have to be my top 2. But the photostory unit was awesome, I had a lot of fun working on that. I actually saved it and put it on my own computer (after I downloaded photostory) because I liked mine so much, it's just a fun program.

4.

Coke or Pepsi: Pepsi.

Li'l Wayne or Little Debbie: Lil' Mermaid.

McDonald's or Arby's: Arby's. When you're thinkin' Arby's, you can't think about anything else. I'm NOT lovin' it.

Chiptole or Taco Bell: Chipotle and it isn't even close. That's like comparing real food to... not real food. Taco Bell is what food EATS.

American Idol or MTV: Neither. ESPN. BUDUHDUH BUDUHDUH!!!

Buffalo Wings or Florida: Chicken Wings. Buffalo's dont even HAVE wings.

New York City or Los Angeles: Chicago.

Name you like for your future daughter: Shaniqua.

Name you like for your future son: Michael Jordan. Yeah, the whole thing.

What is or what will be the first country you see outside the continent of North America: I think the first continent I went to outside the US of A was when I went to England, even though that isn't a continent, but I have been to Hawai'i, Mexico and Grand Cayman also. This is kind of a stupid question.

Disney movie you would be most likely to watch on your 21st birthday: Space Jam. And I don't even care if Disney made it or not. I watch Space Jam at least once every day, and my 21st birthday will not be any different.

5. I already told you, it's from that one Jewish Disney Movie.

These Blog Titles Are Getting Harder and Harder To Make Fun Of

1. One principle that guides me in life is treating others like you want to be treated. Naturally, I don't always follow it, however it still helps me decide whether I should say something or if I should keep it to myself. Lots of times I will completely ignore this (Especially with my friends, just because that is kind of what we do, we make fun of eachother all the time. It's fun!) but I do think about it often and I do think that it helps me decide whether to say something or not say it. I'm not perfect though, so I do say mean things sometimes, even though it goes against this principle. But I'd rather try to uphold this and fail than just give up and treat people like garbage all the time. It's better this way.

2. Every time I watch the news it seems that more young men and women have died in Iraq, and that is something I hate to see. And whether you are a liberal or a conservative you should not like to see these people dying, and I don't think many do. However, as often as these people are dying and it is being reported and mourned, there is little being done about it. Hindsight is 20/20, and it is clear now that it was a mistake to go there, but that doesn't mean we can just waste billions of dollars a day so our armed forces can die.

3. I suppose I want to accomplish a number of things. On thursday I am doing stand-up at the Cabaret (It's french for talent show) and I am very excited for it, and I want to accomplish having a good performance there. Then, further down the road I hope to achieve my goal of getting an internship with the Minnesota Vikings scouting department. I want to do that for May Term, and it would be extremely fun and entertaining. That is what I want to accomplish. And I guess graduating, though that won't be too hard. I "chope" it won't be too hard.
