reflection post


As I reflect on these last 15 weeks in class Reading 25, I feel kind of proud of myself. This is my second class completed in college. It took me a while to warm up to the routine of doing my work, but at the end I really got on the ball with keeping up. Now when I look back and compare my first entrance test, to the last final test on Townsend and Press, I see I did improve. It’s only a couple of points higher, but the rise in score with the main idea of paragraphs I’m totally pleased with. There is still room for improvement, but I feel I did accomplish something with those few higher points. What I will make sure I do in my next class is organized more of my time, for the class I choice. Just to make sure all the time in that class is used proficiently.  The book of my choice for this class reading was “THE HELP”. I kind of wish I had read the book before I saw the movie, because it ruined the good reading for me. Me loving to read, it was hard to keep my attention, because I already knew the main plot, and ending. The book was simply excellent in my opinion.

Argument Draft


American culture is in a crisis because of poor past government leadership, high unemployment rates, and foreclosures. The America people are stuck in an economy that is falling apart because of poor past presidency George Bush. I believe its loss of jobs, and foreclosures are part of the misuse of funds. A lot of Americans seem to have amnesia by blaming are present president Obama (The first black president) for this crisis that we have right now.
