NC

150 NC

Nervous Conditions is starting to make a bit more since to me now. It doesn't jump around as much as the beginning, and the things she do jump to are relevant to what shes talking about. The book to m,e flows better.
I'm also starting to get the emotional feeling of the book. When Nyasha was getting beaten, i hated that part because i could just see it in my mind and was just like 'my god, that's horrable'. I mean it is when your reading it, but when you can visualise it, its worse.

Italy is over, but the memories stay.

In Italy, i got to see more then i could ever hope to see. I never thought that I would get to go there. But now i have, and i will never forget it. WE went to Ostia, the Vatican, Pompeii, Naples, Sorrento, Capri, Anticapri, Rome, and got to see so much of it all. IF i could go back for a month i would still miss something. There is always something to be seen in Italy, weather its a statue, a beautiful house, or a little gelato store that's the second best in all of Italy.
I will always remember this trip, the things Ive seen, and the people Ive meet. But I'm sorry if i respond to you in Italian, bit of a force of habit now. Ciao!

my italy trip

150 min


   My Italy Trip this Mardi Gras is going to be great. First we'll leave from NO at around 10 and fly to Atlanta, and from there we go on a 14 hour trip to a small town in Italy who's name escapes me. We'll spend about a day or so there, then continue by charter bus to Rome, Italy. In between we'll go to Pompeii.
   In Rome we'll be able to see the Colosseum, the Vatican, and much more. As of now I'm still packing (on orders from my parents, if i had it my way, id just pack the night before). Ive got an all new camera for the occasion, and I'm using some company phone from the company we used to book our trip. i know for a fact this will be the best trip I've ever taken .

My paper so far

So far my paper is go9in along well. I do have the minimum of writing but would like more, so ill work on that in later drafts. The formation might be a little messed up, so if we have time in class, ill work with Dr. D in class on that. But the subject matter is interesting.
I never thought that a political change like this would really matter. Changes like this happen all the time. But its the details of what will happen that are interesting. If North Korea does decide to go to war, most if not all of southern Asia will be a war in some form or another. And then the U.S. will probably intervene and help someone, most likely South Korea and China (if china were to get dragged in) since they are our allies. Its a very interesting issue.

Nervous Conditions

60min NC
60min Reasearch draft.

From what I can tell of the first chapter, this is going to be a very bias based book. It will also be confusing. In the first chapter the main character, Tambu, goes off rambaling about brother and how much she dislikes him, but she also goes off into tangants about random things about her life style, which can make the whole story confusing.
 She starts off talking about her brother, and why he doesnt like to walk, then she starts talking about all the things a person could do on the walk he has to take, and then after two or 3 paragraphs links that to why she hates him. So it can get a bite confusing at times, since she does somthing like this ever couple of paragraphs.
