English 061, a fun class, but I just hope this is the last journal for the year, it seems that I’ve been very busy lately, I’ve got a new job and I have a full time schedule here at smcc. But I think my life is going pretty well, but in some cases imp not satisfied with my grade, I was aiming for an A, but all this work and homework it seems very hard, and confusing.

How do I write an essay, it’s almost based on how I’ve learned it in high school, start with some pre-writing, then go on and do an outline, and after start with a rough draft. But after time it seems that the style changes and changes, even through teachers sometimes they have a different way of teaching how to write a paper, but in the end it all comes down to the basic terms, and mostly it is the work you put toward the paper.

The best commercial I’ve ever seen is the cola NASCAR of 2004, it was based on how a little kid ran in too a race in the middle of a NASCAR race, and all the NASCAR’s crashed in too each other. It was pretty cool because all of the NASCAR’s swerved and crashed to each other and all the money lost to save a life of a boy, it just shows how much a human life is worth, but we still go to war and kill human lives for money, oil, etc…

The one thing I hate using technology in this class, is the help from an instructor. It seems that when it’s not in the computer it was easier, because all you had to do is go up to an instructor and ask for help, but as time goes bye, it seems everything is becoming easier. I just hope there will be a new kind of technology that will make everything about technology allot easier, then more people can get used to going online and asking a question.

the most technological piece I use all the time and I love, is my computer, its something I use all the time, I’m very pick about it, I like to customized my computer to find my need. I like to play games all the time on my pc, but one thing I like to is to listen to music, and search the internet, it may seem boring but its pretty cool, because you'll be listen to your favorite sonic and read the news at MTV.

Today was a good day, I had a big presentation for my human communication class, I presented very well and I rated my self with and ten out of ten. the thing that bothered me is that traffic in the morning, it was very busy and slow, that it took me more than an hour to get to school, long drive, but I think I may have found a shortcut, and it should save me like fifteen minutes, more sleep will help, and I also buy some nice cloth for me.

this journal will be the last of my offering to this class, it seems that I’ve learned much more than I could ever thought, the knowledge I’ve learned here will seem helpful in the future in persuading my career. I think it was a great idea for taking this class; it seems that I’ve learned about fragments, verbs, and mostly how to write a paper. I’d never thought that a paper could be very easy to write with the steps Ms.Cooper thought me; this will definitely help me in the future.

if I was watching a movie and someone cut in front of me, then I will get mad, because line is for patience, and if someone attacks my patience, then I will ask him to get back in line and this is not elementary school, follow the line in the back, and if he decides to not. then I will give a fight he will need, the respect is something that my dad thought me, I always had respect for any body I knew or didn't, it seemed to me that if you don’t know the person, then don't hate them, respect them.

If I had to buy ice cream and I forgot to bring money, then it will be a problem, because in my childhood I’ve never had any happiness with ice cream, to it always gave me a brain freeze, and always had a too sugary taste. but if I bought one and forgot to bring money, then ill ask to pay later and if they decide that I must pay now, then ill look in my car for change, and if I cant find anything, then ill be washing dishes pretty soon, but I’ve always had a hidden money in my wallet for emergencies, and ill tend to use that.

in my life I’ve been discriminated many times throughout my childhood, it seem to me that people sometimes had no feeling or morality, i thought that as i get older things should get better, but it was an complete opposite. September, 11 1999, a horrible day, and even more horrible for me, its said that the men that caused it were Saudi Arabians men, my type of people, I had a bad felling about going to school. And as I went friends and school students were making fun of me, and calling me names such as terrorists, and joking around. But inside it really hurt, it wasn't something you want to make a joke out of.

in my past memories of people and things I’ve done, it seems that its all coming back to life with a new way, I truly think that people are habit, and we all like to do whatever everybody does whether its watching a movie, driving playing a game. its all similarities between us and society, if all society became gay, then everybody view of being cool is to join them, whether its bad or not, it will be followed by people, and example is teenager and their drug habit, in movies drugs are on of most seen to be good for a character, teenager tend to take that as a new habit.

The best advice I receive was “learn from your mistakes”, the reason is because a human makes mistake everywhere, to think a human will be perfect, that will never happen, just to know mistakes happen all over your life, from when you’re a little boy, to you’re an older man trying to find a dream women, but knowing what mistake you did will help me by not making the same mistake again.
