The Map Grant

The map grant is something a lot of students that are in college use to pay for their school and I can’t believe that the state of IL was about to take that away from those students who need those map grants. I am lad though that the state didn’t take them away. I believe they should keep the map grants because that really is helping the people who need those grants to pay for college to exceed in their life. Also help them become someone better than the person they are now. I also believe that if they would have took the grant away their would have been a lot of students that couldn’t afforded to go to college. So the state of IL would if had a lot of people roaming the streets looking for job and it would of made the crime rate go in higher than it is now. Also we wouldn’t even have a lot of important people around to help us like doctors, nurses, and so on. If the state of IL would have did that I also believe there would have been a lot of angry people around the state of IL. I am glad that we have that map grant for student to use to go college to further their education. I am also grateful for all the other grants and scholarship money that is out there to help us students go to college and further our education. If it wasn’t for those type of things I believe it would be very hard for us to attend college. So I am very happy they decided to keep the map grant.

Case study number 7

I really find it hard to write when I don’t have a good place to write at. I love to write in quite places so that I can think. I really don’t like it to be really quite but just quite to think. I like to listen to music sometime when I am write an paper or an essay. It really helps me sometime. Sometimes when I am listening to music I think something that I can use to put in my paper that I would had never thought to put in my paper. Also sometime music and distract me when I am writing and really depend on what the topic is. If it’s a topic that I really need to focus on the I don’t listen to music at all but if there and topic that really doesn’t take that much to think on that when I listen to music. The music that I try to listen to when I am writing a paper is classical music and R&b. I listen to R&B the most though. It just gets me and the write mood sometime. It also helps me think of an topic for a paper if I need one. When I write paper I will usually right them in my room so that I am comfortable and am not be bother by anyone while I am typing my paper or writing my paper. If I am not in my room I choose another room that I can become comfortable in. Being comfortable is very important to me when it comes to writing.

A PARTY TO MURDER

I choose to write my blog of this week on one of the plays that ICC was showing. The play was called a party to murder. I really don’t like a play that much but this was one of the best plays that I have seen in awhile. I had to see the play for my theater class. It was recommended for me to go see. I am glad I had the chance to see the play. I loved how the actors played there characters. I think that they all did a great job. I loved the props that they had. I also loved their costumes. The music was a great part also. The sound effects were also awesome. The play somewhat reminded me of a book that I read in high school called the Ten little Indians. I like the play also because it was a mystery play and I love mystery TV shows and books. I loved how the stage looked the crew who had designed the stage did a super job. I thought the play was somewhat hilarious. To be honest I thought the play wasn’t going to be all that great because of the name of the play but it is true that you cannot judge a book by its cover. I liked how at the end of the play they had bowed down and did their little dances it made me laugh it was a great way to end the play. I am so happy that I went to see the play. I will try my best to see any other play that ICC is going to put on. GOOD JOB GUYS!!!!!!!!!

One of my blogger case studies

When I writing a paper I really have a hard time grabbing my audience attention. I don’t know how to start my paper off. For my lit snap I used one of the thing s that we learned in class and that lesson really did help me with. I used dialogue to start off my lit snap paper. I think that I did a great job on that one. I really like using dialogue on my paper because it’s a fun thing t do also it gives the audience a picture of what had happen at that time. It also brings old memories for the writer also. On my next paper I will try to start my paper with one of the other techniques that we had learned in class. If the dialogue works then maybe the other ones will work for me also. I believe that they will work for me. How I was starting my papers off before weren’t that great to me. I thought that they didn’t catch anyone attention and I hated to write papers because of that reason. I also would start my paper off the same way for all of my papers. When I was in high school some of my teachers tired to help on this note but I wasn’t still getting it until now which is great. English 105 is really helping me on the way I write my papers. I believe that I am doing better but can improve a little bit more. Hopefully the other techniques will work for me.
