Interesting topics

If the information is too hard to find or if the topic is too vague then I have less interest in it. I like topics that can relate to certain age groups or ones that just seem to pull you in. Interesting topics that aren't outdated or too complicated for most people. I don't mind writing persuasive or argumental essays. Most of the time I like personal essay that aren't too personal.

Did you vote?

I didn't vote because I thought I registered a while back but when I called the people they said I didn't register and it was too late. I wanted to vote but I guess I have to wait next year.

My Writing

When I look back at my writing, I noticed that sometimes I do well and other times it feels like I rushed. When I focus, I tried to stick with my main idea but when i'm feeling like time is running out I tend to rush and forget to revise. I don't really know why I do well since I feel that I can't write a good intro and my conclusion feel like there could be more to it. What I know I need to work on is staying on topic and stop drifting off.

Mid-Term

How I feel about the Mid Term coming up? Well I can say that I do feel like i'm prepared. So far I've been coming to class and i've been trying to get the work done as soon as I can. I feel that I have been on top of my work, but I know it's going to get harder. I fear that I might get lazy, but I know that I can do it. I do fine for now and I am slightly worried, but I know I have to stay focus and leave all distractions behind me.

Virtual Life

My virtual consist of several things; social networking, gaming and role playing. I develope a more open personality online more than I do in real life. Especially if you don't know most of the people you meet online, they don't have to know the real you. It's easy to make up an alter ego when you play a role playing game or just role playing in a story format. I could be a girl in the real world but play as a boy in the gaming world online and know one would have to know and you end up making an alter ego who can be tough and aggressive. I do like to spend my time outside and take what I learned online and become more open on my own, but the virtual reality helps you to sometimes escape from the real life problems and just have fun.

Music Videos

When I listen to music, I always have my own view of what it's about, what's going on and why did the person wrote it. I usually like listening to the song more than watching the video at times. When I do watch the video however, sometimes I feel that it doesn't go with the song and it confuses me. When I pay close attention, sometimes the videos do affect how I feel about a song. It would make me think more than just listening to it and seeing what the artist has to say from their view. Songs like "Telephone" by Lady Gaga, although I don't like the song, the video seemed way different than what I thought it would be (Homicide, car chases, secret identies. oh and telephones). I was not expecting that, I just thought maybe she broke up with someone, that person is calling her, she doesn't answer and that's it. So yeah, videos to affect the way I feel about certain songs. Some more than others.

College and Frustration

So far nothing has frustrated me about college. Since it just started, everything is easy going, but I know it'll get harder in the long run. What seemed a tad difficult was finding where the classes were and where other areas of the school were located. As of now, there's nothing to complain about since i'm just getting started and i'm going to try and prepare myself for what's coming in the near future.
