Portfolio

The paper I feel that best repersents my writing ability is the personal anaylsis paper. I have alot of feeling in their and it really is interesting to read. It really shows all the pain and anquish i was trying to put forth. Now wehn people are cirtiquing it all they can say is like personel thingss, they they would change. I really made it readeable for anyone, who wanted to listen.
Then I have my research paper. It is such a long paper, and there is so much going on it. I also have to put in my portfolio, and make it good. I find the information a little bit dry and hard to wrtie about. That is why it is hard to edit. I know the direction I need to go in, but I don't know the road to take to get there. My voice is my stongest in my papers, and the way I take information and spin in to my argument makes everything relate. The weakest part is my grammar and the emphasis to grab the reader. I hope my portfolio turns out ok.

Group E Prompt 2

I have always felt for Chris family. I can't imagine any of my family members running away and never trying to contact me. Especially his sister who did nothing wrong to him, or his mother. Only his father wronged him, and he made all of his family pay for it. The fact that they came up just to riffle through his remains really seem to unjustly his whole experience, and make Chris seem selfish. Chris's family seemed kinda responsible for the whole act of his death.
If I was Chris Family I would want to go and see the bus. There might be something comforting knowing how he lived out his last days, and maybe something that would give me comfort in knowing it wasn't what I did that drove him away. It would be hard to live with the fact that my decisions effected a family member so much that he would have to go and get himself killed. Especially when I had no clue where he was, and I couldn't help him. That would be the reasons to go there, not to experience what he did, living in the wild.

JAWS

The Primary source for my term paper is the hit motion picture JAWS. I actually had a few reasons for choosing it. The first was I wanted to find a movie that a lot of people reacted too. I also wanted to find something that also used something real in life that people could form an opinion about. The last reason I choose this movie was there is tons of information about it, that is easy to get and easy to understand. Being a fan of the movie, when reading peoples reaction to the movie I can understand where they are coming from.
The main part of my argument will be how people perceived sharks, and how they created a so called shark phobia from visual media. I will argue that so many people saw this media that they started to become afraid of sharks. Then people using this fear started over fishing for sharks and putting up shark nets in swimming areas. These nets are harmful to the local marine population but peoples fear of sharks out weigh the cost of the marine life.
That is the argument I will try to make in my paper I just do not know how well it will go...
