Things take time

 

Today got me really thinking a lot about free writing. I did my own free writing in class yesterday. But the option you gave us, I feel like I should just write about it since it's been having me just think.  I really like writing in slam poetry/poems so I feel like this is a great topic to write in this type of form. 


Things take time

We all face problems,

Some may be worse than others.

Some may make us fall on our asses, 

Some may make us work harder,

But things take time.

Healing takes time.

Time is a weird thing,

Its never ending,

It keeps going…

And going…

It's our past, our present and our future. 

But it doesn't stop us from hitting a rock hard wave. 

It doesn't stop us from having to face our problems.

We all face problems in different ways.

But we all need time,

Things take time.

Time is the key to life 

Every moment matters in life,

We never know what is gonna happen at any second. 

Time…

Tick tock

Tick tock

The clock in an infinite circle.

But we will still face problems.

That rock hard wave will hit you and knock you out of breath.

We need time to catch our breath

Breathing in and out…

In and out 

Until that one last big deep breath, 

All the relief is off your chest.

If you just stop and take that one deep breath.

Take that time you need.

Everyone has problems but if you just be patient,

Time will catch up to you.

It will let you take that one deep breath. 

It will let you bandage up your wound and heal.

Things simply take time.

Week Recap

        Card 101 was a really knowledgeable week this week. This week taught me a lot. We had research skill training on Monday. I gained a lot of knowledge from the things we discussed and discovered. The webpage that we may use to access the library website was fantastic. The statements beginning with "Or" and "And" were my favorites. I find it fascinating how much those two words may alter during the course of research. For instance, how much they both explicitly narrow down what you are seeking for. I really enjoyed the sheet she gave us and how we could go in some direction if necessary. I just believed that doing this demonstrated our familiarity with the research method, but it will also aid in simplifying the procedure and make it simpler to identify trustworthy websites.       After that, we had a workday on Wednesday. We helped someone with their topic by guiding them through the process of reducing a wide topic to a more focused on...

Warm-up to the End

  For my Rational Argument it was hard for me to pick a topic. I narrowed it down to three different topics and decided on my topic after that. For me choosing a topic is not that bad because there are many topics to choose to argue about. But the thing that is hardest for me is finding reliable sources. For finding one I read through certain sections to make sure it is good enough for my point or if it counters it to make sure I have a thing to back it up. I am pretty positive my sources I have so far are pretty reliable and I am confident with them.       The other thing that I oddly struggle on is just trying to write small pieces of the paper at a time. I love to just write the whole paper whether it is a “Shitty First Draft” and it might not be an A paper. I like it because once I get on a roll with writing a paper I honestly dont wanna stop. For my first rough draft I already have 5 pages done but I am still not done with it. I found most of my sources to ...

Microtheme

         I have never written a paper like this Microtheme before. It discourages you from taking a stand or trying to support your points with facts. This particular piece of writing will benefit my professional development as a writer. We are all so familiar with choosing sides and arguing for them. However, this goes further into writing and forces you to consider an idea you agree with without arguing for the point. This kind of writing will assist us in learning how to use our critical thinking skills more and keep our sentences brief and to the point.      I underestimated how difficult this piece would be. I found it quite difficult to choose a topic, especially given how use I am to support my claims with evidence. I eventually settled on a topic, but given the standards we must maintain, it was still incredibly challenging to write about. To the best of my ability, I wrote my rough draft using all the examples as a guide. I was stil...
