2nd Semester Reflections

In the first semester, I couldn't do as well as I thought because I wasn't understanding some of the directions for my assignments and my homework. It wasn't that simple because they were much more complicated than the ones I had to do in Middle School. I felt some difficulties to those I failed the most. I learned that I had to ask more questions about how I can improve my grades for my assignments in the fall semester. I also learned that I could be careful about correcting my mistakes since I made a huge mess on my essays. But the most important thing was that I wasn't reading the rubrics careful enough. It definitely affected my grades for sure and it will in the second semester if I didn't change my habit.

My goal for second semester is to simply improve my grades than my first semester grade since it wasn't that great. I would need to be careful about what I'm doing and listen carefully to the teacher rather than just reading the directions. I also want to study more for my final exam which could be more difficult than the midterm exam.

Dialogue

  "Hey", said Tom. "Sup", Andy replied back. "How was your party last night?", Tom said as he grabbed a bag of family size chips. "Good night", said Andy. As soon as Tom heard him say "Good night", he made a facial expression with an anger. "Dude, what the heck?", he said. "I was just asking how your night went and you finished our conversation. What's wrong with you? I didn't know you were trying to be mean to me even though I didn't do anything rude to you." Then Andy made a different facial expression with a confusion, "Why are you mad? All I did was answering your question. Calm down." Tom replied, "No you didn't, you said good night. You probably tried to end our conversation because you hated me."      Andy was wondering why Tom got mad for a simple question. Then Andy went through his voice to try to clear out his misunderstanding. "No! That's not what I meant by ...

Research Post

 My research topic is about Islamophobia. Islamophobia is a type of non-Muslim people who are disrespecting the Muslims. Islamophobia is a serious problem in our modern society especially because of the many violence that Islamists did around the world, who claim to be a Muslim. In my research paper, I will answer my research question how do violent acts done in the name of Islam go against the principles of Islam?  How has this contributed to Islamophobia?  Just about few decades ago, people didn't really know anything about Islam or things that are related to Islam unless you are Muslim or related to Muslim society. But in our society that we currently I've in, people have made many mistakes about Islam and so does the Islamists. They are both misinterpreting in their own way. I found it interesting to try to find out what was going through the Islamophobic society.

Response to my book

 The book I'm currently reading is called, "Fall Out". I first chose to read this book because I really liked the gap between a comical picture on the front cover and the information about this book on its back cover that makes you feel nervous. This story was from the summer of 1962, a place where the nuclear bomb was dropped. Then they started to think that they all might be dead because of it. The main characters are Scott and some other friends. The worst thing was that his house was the only house with the shelter which made them make a hard decision. As I mentioned above, I couldn't imagine reading something historical and warlike out of a book that makes us think that it might be about realistic fiction.  The other thing that was unique about thing book was that people rushed in to his house that was only for four people. They also ate the food they had that was for four of the people in his family. I've heard that people had multiple shelters undergroun...
