the cold

the cold makes me want to curl up in a warm blanket grab a god book and bunker down. either that or if its not to chilly i like to go go out side and go on walks by the river with my sisters. the winter is one of my favorite seasons, the only thing i dont like about it is the effect the cold has on our limbs like our toes and fingers. the winter is one of the most pretty seasons in my oppinion, beacause its not just a sign of loss or death, its a sign of a new begining because under all that white snow is spring waitingto burst forth.

strengths and weaknesses on essays

my strengths in writing an essay are in the begining when i brain storm and begin to write the essay including the out line the first draft and the thesis. my weaknesses are after the first rough draft i rarly do any work to try and change the essay that i have written. also i have weak counter argument. what i need to focus on with this essay is working on editing and revising my paper before i send it in. i also need to strengthen my counter argument. it also wouldnt hurt to try and widen my vocabulary a bit.

the awakening

I haven't completely finished the book the awakening. What I did get was an argument on women's rights in the community. I don't really like this book so far because I believe that every woman has the same rights as every man does, and that in this book men input their thoughts of what women's place is in their heads so they think that is where they should be and not think for themselves on what their lace in society is. They don't get to think for themselves because they grew and are growing up in a society where men rule and dictate every aspect in their lives. other than this I don't have anything else to say. I'm almost done with the book and will have finished it by next class.

civil war argument essay topic

the topic i chose to write about is the 5th topic, where i use the life of fredrick douglass  to reate a reasoned argument that demonstrates how owning another human being can corrupt a person and negatively alter their character. my main argument is how when you own something of great inportance oruse it makes you seem drunk with power which eventually leads to you being a cruel and corupt person. i believe i could argue this because it leaves lots of room open for discusion.
