Two essays compared/ contrasted

         In the essay Columbus and the Moon it is talking about how Christopher Columbus was on his voyage to America and, somehow it was the same day as the Government's project as it is known as NASA which is National Aeronautics and Space Administrations. They both had series of voyages. NASA landed men on six different parts of the moon while, Columbus made four voyages to different parts that was the east coast of Asia. They both gave their answers to the Government but, he asked for more information as In details that could benefit anyone back home. Although everything that was being discovered like the moon was like a gray rock in the early 1970s, and, Columbus returning from Barcelona Columbus still died, and the NASA still lives. 
   In the essay about Life in a Bundle of Letters the author shared how he had saved his letters as an his memories like, love letters or letters from school friends. He stated that receiving a letter is more intriguing than receiving a call because, in a letter you can sit and mull and say exactly what you mean. He also states that you can not wrap a life time of phone calls in a rubber band like you can with a letter as in wanting to remember that specific time on perhaps another decade If lucky enough.
        They achieved their goals by expressing how they felt on what they considered was right to do for them. I got some ideas that can help me on my essay and on the long run.

High school teachers !

   The three types of teachers that I had in high school were helpful but not as much. To begin with I had a teacher who did not care if we was paying attention to her as she teached. She would always say “ I’m still getting paid at the end of the day and I got my degrees “ , she would teach but if most of the people were not paying attention she would stop and that affected me especially when it came to tests. My next teacher was a cool teacher he would always be willing to help us and stay after school with us. He was the type you can ask questions and he would clarify it without stating it in a mad way. He loves his job as teaching and anyone can tell because the willingness of him helping us. Last but not least I had a teacher who just graded what we would do didn't really have the interest to ask or bother to speak a lot. She would just tell us what was necessary and left it like that. In the end I only had me to rely on and I did what I had to do.

Friends


     The three types of friends that I have are very special to me. To begin with I have a best friend, a friend that I consider as a sister, and I have a party friend. My best friend is everything to me she is the person that I go to or text when I just miss her or, have problems in my life and I need her help. My next friend is the one I consider family she is like someone that I can find peace with, she is the type of person that when I am with her we can not stop laughing. We could be anywhere and get in trouble for laughing. Last but not least my party friend, she is the girl that I call when I am invited to a party and need someone to go with me. She is the one that will take care of me regardless what I say as in “I am good don't worry” she will still take care of me even if I repeat it. I love them all though.

Easier Or Harder !?


    I find this essay a little more difficult than the other one because this one is in 3rd person point of view. I will have a harder time because I have to definitely watch for words that are first person point of view, it will take me more time especially editing my essay because I do not want to have a first person point of view phrases. It is more interesting as to my curiosity of learning more on why people smoke. To many people my topic could be intriguing and for others it could be dumb because even if people view it it probably wouldn't make a difference. The other one was much more simple because it was about something that I believed in, not so difficult because I knew it I grew up with it. It was quicker for me to put my thoughts onto my essay and a little more coping to myself.

Citations on essays

You should cite your information all the time and use it adequate. If you do not cite your information it can stand out as if you were plagiarizing. This is a lot of trouble although it depends on what you are doing you have to give credit to the person who said it because it took the owner a while to come up with something good. You can cite the information in many ways whether an article on the web or from a book as well as a  youtube  video. It is just going to be cited in a specific way but yet all in MLA style form.

Help On MLA

I find MLA formatting easier now since we have been going over it in class and it is not so difficult anymore. I do still have trouble with MLA Works Cited page it confuses me between the author or the publisher and after I put it in citation machine it gets simple at the same time but it is not arranged as it is supposed to be so I have to fix it and try not to have any typos. If I do have a typo then everything messes up, so I prefer going over the citations in class a little more because I see how it is being done.

college struggles


    students have responsibilities but it is nothing new everyone has responsibilities. They have a life outside of college and perhaps jobs as well but at some point everyone struggles. The thing is they have a series of studying to do for however many classes they have but, plenty of the students get their homework, or classwork done in time for them to maintain a good grade in each of their classes. They get their main responsibilities out of the way and deal with their other situations once their work is done. It can get hard especially if they are working part time but, nothing is easy although everything is capable even if they have kids. Students have kids, and jobs, and still attend classes they do their exams and pass it with a good grade, their homework or projects could be hard but it gets done. Every struggle you go through will pay off in the end.
