act blog

So, for this week's blog, I would like you imagine yourself getting the ACT prompts. Describe what the choices are (what the questions are) and which one you choose and why. Then narrate how you write the test. What claim are you making? What are your reasons to support that claim? What evidence and specific details will you use to show your reader that your reasons are valid/real? Start your blog with "It is 1:00 and the proctor for the test just arrived" then tell the story of the test all the way up until you leave the room. When you are finished, take some time to read your classmates' responses and help them out if they seem to be missing anything. This blog will count double


its 1:00 and the proctor for the test just arrived. he/she hands me my test and i get started. i read the prompts and the choices. the choices are usually to donate some money to either a school or the community. i make my choice about which prompt to write about. i usually choose the school because it can help more people get an education. then after choosing i would try to do a quick outline to make my thoughts clear. i would use evidence from personal experience and facts. after finishing writing the essay i would read over to make sure there are no mistakes.

technologies that define my daily life

List of electronics I use daily ...
ipod, sidekick, cell phone, computer/laptop, metro card, debit card, printer (on somedays) etc ..

the electronics I use the most are my cell phone, my sidekick, my computer, and my ipod. my cell phone and sidekick i use most often because I usually have to get in contact with someone so i either text them or call them. my ipod i use whenever i'm alone especially when i'm traveling. it keeps me from being bored and especially when i'm on the train it helps me tune out people that are asking for money. my computer i use alot at home, for school work and also for socializing. now being at LaGuardia i use the computer even more during class especially in my basic writing class. my debit card i use it on days when i don't have cash with me, so i just swipe my card. my life without these electronics would probably be a lot more difficult and more boring. without a metro card i would always need to have change to pay for the bus or to buy a single ride metro card. without my cell phone and sidekick i wouldnt be able to get in contact with people. without my ipod i would just be bored. without the computer and printer i wouldnt be able to do my work for school. without debit card i would always have to carry cash with me.

Martix Blog.

i've never watched the movie the matrix before. so far, since we haven't finished it yet, its okay. theres alot about making choices and alot of electronics and stuff. normally it wouldnt be something i would want to watch, but so far its intersting. also i think the "matrix" is something that would never happen. i still dont completly understand exactly what it is. all the things that dr smith was saying through the movie i probably wouldnt have even noticed, like the usage of the colors blue red and green. it seems like its a movie that makes you think alot. its the kind of movie that i would have to watch twice to fully understand it. also all the names in the movie are very weird like neo, trinity, and morpheous. i think in the end of the movie neo will just wake up and it will all be a dream, but then he'll have some weird kind of scar and that will leave to the next matrix movie.
