My Experience in this Class

My experience in this class was pretty straight. I didn't have a problem with the class. The only problem had was when I was accused of taking Dreama's paper. That really pissed me off. Other than that the class was good. I learned quite a few things in this class. I learned how to write to three different essays. The narrative essay was easy to write. The compare and contrast essay was hard as I don't know what. I never want to do another one of those but I know more then likely I will. The argumentative essay is pretty straight. I think I got the hang of it. If I worked on it a little more I would be straight. Today in class we really didn't do anything. The first part of class we reviewed each others rough draft and then discussed the final exam. After that we were just talking. People then really hit a nerve by being all loud for no reason. It's no reason to be loud when we in the same room. People are so extra now a days it don't make no sense. Seem like they don't know when to calm down. I'm beyond happy that this is week going by fast. I go home Friday. I don't know how to act. I'm just ready for Saturday. I already know it's going down Saturday. I will be at the club having a good time by being with the people I know. I also know we going to be turnt to the max. I'm just ready to have a good time. Well, ECSU it's been real this summer. I'll see you back in the fall.

Frustration

Ughhhhh. I just want to scream to the top of my lungs. I'm so stressed out and frustrated it don't make no sense at all. This paper is going to make me pull my hair out. It seems like I can't do nothing right when it comes to it. Everything I show Professor Wesley is wrong. She is a hard teacher. It's crazy that we have to have 5 pages by tomorrow and we have to finish the outline before the class is over. Jesus be a fence all around me. Lately it seems like the world is against me. I really don't know why I feel like that but I just do. I really ready to go home and be with me people that really know me. I miss my friends and family back home. I know this weekend I'm going to have a good time. I can feel it. I already know I have to go to the club. It is must. I feel like I have missed a lot. When I go back to work I don't know how I am going to act. I got to call my job today and see when I come back. This program has been a real good experience. I meet some cool people. I also meet my college best friends; Tamara and Tianna. We always together and stay doing something we not suppose to ne doing. We always have a good time. It's never a dull moment with us. We argue and talk to each other like we sisters and we knew each other for a long time. I'm really going to miss them two. I wonder how things are going to be in the fall for us. I know for sure we going to stay friends and become even closer. I guess that's it for now. I got to finish working on this paper and this outline.

Today's Thoughts

Class was straight. Those questions and essays we have to read is the boring part of the class. When I read it just puts me right to sleep. If it want long I would be good. The questions are very complex and long. They tell you do to much. Nobody has time for that. The good part about it you get an easy 100 for doing it. We took notes in class today and had a little debate about Zimmerman. One girl believes a child is not suppose to tell their parent they can't tell them what to do even if the parent want in their life. I tell my father that all the time. I don't understand why you trying to be a dad now. It's to late for that; should have been there from the beginning. Why would I listen to you when you never listened to me when I told you to be in my life? I don't think I'll ever find the answer to that. I talk to my dad any kind of way because personally I don't care for him. The things he did to my other 3 siblings, their mother, my mother and me is just ridiculous. Anyways I'm not about to get on that subject today. I like writing blogs now. I can express myself in ways I didn't know I could. It seems like when I start typing and listening to music I just get in this zone. The source I'm using for an arguable claim is issues of causation. The cause is not having a father in your life and the effect is you can't have a great relationships. I did some research yesterday and it's a lot of information about this topic. I found a good article and what the person was talking about really knew what they were talking about. Everything they were saying was true. I need to look at examples of how to write an essay like this. I need some good ideas on how to get started. Hopefully it's easy writing this paper but we will see.

7/18/13

Today in class was okay. That argumentative essay we read in class was so long and very boring. We have to write an argumentative essay and it has to be eight pages long. We have to use Sula as evidence. Our teacher put up themes and we had to choose from them. When I seen absent fathers I knew I wanted to do that one. I choose that one because I can relate to it. My father has never been in my life and probably don't have plans on it either. Not having a father effects me a lot when it comes to certain things. I think it effects me the most when it comes to relationships. I feel like if my father was in my life I would know what type of boys to date. I feel like Sula was the same way. I can relate to her. Then again I don't because I don't sleep with everybody. I think if my father was in my life I would be straight. It hurts me sometimes when people talk about their dad and all I can say about my dad is a dead beat , a felon and stay in and out jail. I wonder if he ever think I wish I could be in my kids lives. Every time I ask him why he not in my life or my sisters he always say it's my mama's fault when its not. I just wish he would take some responsibility then again its to late for him to do that. I don't think any mother should tell their children's father that he need to be in their kids life. The father should already know that. You was man enough to make the child; you should be man enough to take care of it and be in its life. I think this paper should be easy for me because I can talk about a lot on that topic. I know for evidence the internet is going to help me out a lot. I really hope I can get eight pages if not I will be highly upset at myself. Its no reason for me not to get eight pages when I know I can talk about this topic strongly. I know I can say that women can't have a great relationships without their father in their life and women can still have great relationships without their father. I think my essay should be very interesting. I'm going to ask my teacher is that how am I suppose to do my essay like that. I hope so. The crazy thing about this is I was just talking to my best friend about this same topic. I wonder if I can ask other females whose father is not in their life how are their relationships with men without their father in their life. I also need to ask my teacher about do I have to retype my first paper since she didn't get it. I know I sent it because I seen where it said something about it has been submitted. I even got Tanasia to help me send it.I think its crazy the teacher got hers but didn't get mine. I don't get it at all. Its very frustrating. I know for sure I'm going to mange my time wisely when it comes to writing this paper. I don't want to be up all night writing this paper like I did with the last one. I have to motivate myself to do better and I know I can do it!

My Thoughts about Children and the Internet

To me it's a a problem then again it's not. I would say it's problem because children get on the internet everyday and some don't. I think it's also the parents fault. They should give their kids a limit on how much time they spend on the computer. Seems like all kids want to do is play video games and be on the web. I wonder if they ever think is this getting boring or I could be doing something else. Some kids are obsessed with video games like it's the only thing they want to do. If kids spent as much time studying or exercising like they do on the web and video games everything would be okay. Some parents wonder why their kids are big. I'm disappointed in the parents because they know better. I guess parents just don't care about their children health and that's a shame. Class was okay today. It was a lot going on. I'm just ready for this program to be over with. I'm beyond ready to go home. I can't take this anymore. Seems like everyday just gets worse and worse. I know we only got a week left but I don't know if I can take it. I'm tired of certain people. They really getting on my nerves. I just wanna go home back to my old life. Hopefully in the fall I don't have to see some of these people anymore.

1965

This is the last chapter in the book. I'm so glad that I'm done reading this book. Well, I can admit that the book was good and interesting. I really enjoyed the details in the book. Sometimes I wonder what would the bottom would be like if Sula was still alive. I don't think things would be going like they are now. The women in the bottom would probably still be all over their men. When Nel went to go visit Eva you could tell she was nervous. I know I would be nervous because I wouldn't know what to expect. It's hard facing someone after not talking to them for a long period of time. What I really want to know is how did Eva know about the secret. Nobody was around when it happened. When she would have told me I know about the secret; I would have lost my mind. I know for sure I would be asking plenty of questions trying to figure out how she knew. When Nel called out Sula's name after she left from visiting Eva she must have missed her. I guess she felt like she needed Sula or needed her comfort. I wonder if Sula was alive would her and Nel be friends. Once I think about it I doubt because of the way Nel walked out on Sula in the room. I felt bad for Shadrack since he as nobody. I really wish in this book he could have found somebody or moved out the bottom. I think if he had a better life he would be okay. That would really make the book interesting to me. I also wanted Nel to find somebody who would make her happy and she would get remarried. In class today we took the quiz on this chapter. How did I do ? HORRIBLE! I know for sure I failed this quiz. I didn't understand it and I really couldn't read the chapter like I wanted to because I was really focused on that paper. I learned my lesson. I really need to start managing my time wisely. I was up to three in the morning trying to get everything right. I never want to do that again. I'm so sleepy and cranky. I'm ready for class to be over to take a good nap. It want be a long one because I got to go to math class. I really don't need to be taking a nap because I got a quick nap. Guess I got to take an hour nap and study for like twenty minutes. Summer program is almost over and I'm so excited. I'm beyond ready to go home. I'm also ready to go back to work and I have never been ready to go to work. I know I'm going to miss some of the girls. All of us made a tight bond. I'm ready for the fall to link back up with them. I know for sure we going to keep in touch because that's how close we are. I would have never thought I would meet some cool and amazing people. I really think we could all be friends for the rest of our lives. Just got to see what the future holds for our friendship.

1941


The Bottom finds out about Sula dying. They were excited that she was dead too. Some of the community went to the funeral just to show their respect but some didn't. When she died good things were suppose to happen. The Bottom started receiving some bad weather. It was very strange. The wives in the bottom stopped catering to their man because they didn't have to worry about Sula anymore. Teapots mother beat him because she made him something to eat and he didn't eat it. People in the community came down with different illnesses since the weather was so bad. Some people were missing out on their wages because they couldn't go to work. When it talks about Shadrack I really like the fact she expressed how he felt for once. I got a little sad when he talked about Sula. He actually cared about her. I feel like he should have told her he felt but he couldn't. You could tell that Shadrack felt some type of way about Sula's death when he decided that he didn't want to do march for  National Suicide Day. I wonder what gave him the courage to actually finally decide to march. I don't think he should have vandalized that site. I see where he coming from though. I guess he was tired of them not giving blacks jobs. I was salty when they said the Deweys drowned. I would have never thought they would die. I want to know why the author put so many deaths in the book. The deaths were crazy too. I wonder who is going to die next. I hope nobody does. In class we started working on our thesis. This paper is so hard. I really wish we didn't have to use characters out the book. I think it would be easier if we could pick who wanted to do. I need a lot of help on this paper. If not I know for sure I'm not going to get a good grade on it. Then the rough draft due on Monday. I just can't deal. I'm ready for this to be over with. I feel like I'm going to be up all night writing this paper. It's five pages long too and we can't use the word you, we and I. I don't know what I'm going to do. Time will tell even though I don't have a lot of time.
