Human Nature

               Human nature is a mixture of bad and good. It is not always bad; sometimes it can be good. Human nature can be bad when humans need to get things done for their survival. Humans will practically do anything to survive in their environment. This could be surviving with enough food and water, or it could be surviving the social environment humans are in. For example, if someone is around a lot of students making fun of one kid. The kid is clearly being bullied or being made fun of. This person knows it is wrong to make fun of a kid, but he doesn't do anything about for the fear of being made fun of himself. He is doing whatever it takes, though it may be wrong, to be socially accepted by his peers.

               Human nature has its times of good still. A prime example of good human nature is in small children. For example, a parent may be rude to someone or say a mean thing. The small child will hear this and will tell their parent to "be nice" or "don't be mean." All of these things are not necessarily learned, though parents still teach them to their children. Children know when someone needs help or is being rude. They do not have the worries of whether society will judge them for sticking up for people, so they don't consider the consequences.

    I completely agree with you. I liked how you used examples to show human nature! Good job!

Strengths and Challenges

                My strengths as a writer are organization and word choice. I have learned how to allow a thesis to lead my paper and give my paper its general order. This is significantly allowed my writing to be much more organized. My word choice has also been bettered. I have learned how to find meaningful words that help my writing be as specific as possible.                 I still need to work on voice. Sometimes, I do not use the right kind of writing styles to fit what my audience likes. For example, I struggle with when to use informal and formal styles. All of these areas are important because, as I continue to develop my writing knowledge, they will help me answer my rhetorical situations better. They will help me answer questions and prompts, and they will help me get my point across fluently and with ease.

Where Is It?

               Dr. Dean, a cardiac surgeon, hears the dreaded noise. Oh no, not that noise , Dr. Dean thinks to himself. He rushes to find the defibrillator.                "Where is it, where is it?" Dr. Dean whispers in a frustrated voice, meanwhile seeing no sign of the defibrillator he most desperately needed.                The nurses rush in. The anesthesiologist checks her calculations, making sure she did not make the mistake no one wanted to have to break to Bill's parents. Surgeons sprinting to find the nearest doctor that could help.                "How could I have let this happen? I promised them he would be okay," Dr. Dean says, anxiously still looking for the stubborn instrument.                It has been fifteen minutes, no progress has been made on the hunt for the defibrillator. Dr. Dean's glimmer in his eyes flickers out. He realizes he must break the news to the parents. He walks, slowly, keeping track of each new step he takes.

Research Update

                My research is going well. I am really interested in my topic about Elizabeth I, so it hasn't been too boring. I have been finishing each step of the project on time so far. Also, the annotative bibliography wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It really helped me organize all of my ideas in one space. It also helped me figure out how I was going to use many of my documents in my paper.                 There are a few things that have been giving me trouble. To start, I have been procrastinating a lot. So, it takes me a long time to finish reading all of my documents and annotate them. I also had to find a few more documents to help support my research question, and I had to read and take notes on them.
