ch. 9 know yourself and your journal 25 word each blog

the know yourself exercise in ch.9 were very informative about how to claim words as yours or as someone elses without risking plagiarism. also knowing wat my speaking strengths and weakness were are very helpful considering im taking comm 20 which is public speaking.

the your journal exercise is very informative as well because we talk about what we found bad or distracting about other peoples speechs so that we can look at wat we do and how we can change it. Also the dos and donts such as brain farts are best to get rid of by just talking to someone and freeing your mind.

I dont have a roomate but my brother is just as bad as one. hes a really dirty person where as im really clean and often find myself cleaning up after him.

I have never faced prejuduice or discrimination.

Both Dan and I are fairly young with very important jobs and find that people think we are less and no qualifyed because of our age.

Ive recently been attending alot of football games and parties and have been having alot more fun that what high school was.

Posture and touch tell alot about how poeple are and how they act. Body language is a key part of any conversation.

Ive a very die hard republican but every single gay person ive meet has been nothing but nice to me so its hard to really put a finger on where i stand on this topic.

Lets just say Jackson is pretty quite but put him in a situation where he has a oppurtunity to do something different and out there he deffiently will. Shy i dont think so. Hes very open and seems like a cool class mate

Today was so hecktic. I had class for nine hours that felt like 20 and have tons todo after school. I came home from a long day and had many chores and things todo. I ended up finishing my custom car audio subwoofer box. Im pretty happy with it but im nervous about bolting it down since hit is going to be drilled in right next to my gas tank. Also i think i left a couple screws on the driveway so lets hope i dont get a flat in the morning

Day after labor day

I had tons of fun with my four day weekend. I ended up staying home and catching up on alot of sleep. My class's start at 7 30 and 8 every monday - thursday and i have a 25 minute communte so I often find myself waking up very early. I also had work four days in a row and with a lack of sleep that didnt make it any more fun.

tip

know your teachers pet peeves!

martin luther king library tour

The lecture was very insightful and very helpful. He talked about future tools we can use during our major reports. We were showed to how easily reference books and authors. I never realized how many online sources are available to us online. Books and magazines dating back 100 years ago. I never knew that the library was both a public library that 2nd as a library for San Jose State University. Also that books that are not available at the San Jose State campus library can be ordered from surrounds libraries. The campus pays for online resources that are available and open to all students. We can also book laptops in the basement of the library that can be used for up to four hours at a time verses the computers which are only a hour and are often taken up by homeless people and you think I'm joking. There's also exhibits and many other useful learning tools located around the library that are widely excepted by most teachers.
