sorry for the wait...... Class Blog(11/16/12)


Today in class we reviewed everything we have learned so far in this course.  Throughout this class we have learned a lot, some more than others. However, together we all have gotten something out of taking this class.                                       

As the semester starts to come to an end it is go to know that we all had something to take from the time we spent together. We have grown a lot as students in these last few months and I do not know, but I have grown as a person as well.
 
  On another note, today Heather introduced the books of postsecrets to those who did not know of them.
  She brought in two books one for older people and one that seemed to more so for teenagers. She showed the class pictures for us to interrupt and figure out the intended audience.
 
After we looked at the books, it was our turn to make our own postsecret. Heather supplied the class with postcards, magazines, books and glue to use for their postsecret.  We had to share a secret using the postcard, it did not matter what it was. After we finished our postcard we had to blog about. Once that was done we were allowed to leave class was over the day.

My Favorite Peer Review Technique

One peer review that I feel works well for me is the one we did today. I like the one on ones because you get to see and understand what the reader is thinking. finding out how my peers feel about my writing is helpful since they are the real audience of my paper. Also I like the suggestions that are given it helps me formulate  my own new ideas. I use them as a guide to keep me focused and on the right tract.

Honesty is hard to find


Relationships are a key element to life. There are plenty of different kinds such as friendship or an intimate relationship between two people. These are both very beautiful things if created with the right person. Relationships should have a level of trust and honest within it that holds the two together. Without honest there is no trust and without trust there is nothing but heartache and lies. Pain can surface very quickly in a relationship without honesty. Everybody claims that they never want to hurt the other person but if you are being dishonest you hurt them before it even began. Lying is like a disease that just keep spreading though the body. Once you tell that first lie it is all over from there. After that first lie comes the lie to cover that one and the one to cover that one and so on. It is like a never ending plaque that can only be stopped by a sacrifice. In order for you to get yourself out of this hole you must tell the true. That old saying "The true will set you free" is not just old people rambling but it holds some real meaning to it. when you are honest there is nothing that no one can hold over your head or make you regret. By being honest you control your happiness.

Peer Review

1.What are some ways to approach this paper?
 - Marisa said that I should make sure that the photo is linked to the text. she told me to look at what the image is showing and to see if the text matches it.

2. Why Miley? and How has the media changed your view of Miley?
 - Marisa said because Miley Cyrus has gone through such a drama transformation over the pass couple of years. Also because she was a Disney star she is being highly judged for how she wants to live her life.
 -Marisa replied "Shit gets out there and she just puts herself in a bad situation.

Overall I got a lot out off my peer review

Paper Two

-My paper is analyzing magazines
-The reason I picked magazines is because I feel as though I can say a lot about them. I don't think i will get stuck on like the fifth page with nothing else to say.
-I'm not really sure how I am going to analyze it yet, but I;m thinking about comparing different magazines and the way the approach situations. I also might compare and contrast how the pictures they use is established by their audience.
-Some questions my partner asked me were (1) How many magazines do you plan on using? and (2) Are you going to use all popular magazines or use two popular and two not so well known?

I'm still a little foggy on how I plan on approaching this assignment.

In this photo there is a grandmother and all of here grandchildren. There is ten kids, however, the caption read that she only could account for six of them. The photo has the grandmother in the middle of all of these children which caught me a little off guard. i did not understand why all of these kids who don't look that far apart in age was surrounding her with a caption saying she only can account for six. plus i could not figure out why most of them look so unhappy. i think this photo has both a short and long story behind it.
