Final Paper

Finally finished with the final paper! It was a little daunting with the length required and my busy schedule, but I did it. Time management was a big part of it. However, I think the most important thing when writing a paper (especially when its longer than two pages) is motivation. You need to be excited with what you are writing. When you write you are sharing your voice. You are allowing other people to hear your thoughts and for a minute look into the world you are showing them. This is probably why I like documentaries so much. I actually got a lot of my motivation through the documentary- "The American Drug War: The Last White Hope" it was really great and like any good story it made you really think about what's going on around you.

The World's Problems

There is so much beauty in this world. Yet at the same time so much evil and things that really need fixing. What do you guys think the biggest problems are? What solutions do you have?

Guest Speakers

I think it's great when we have guest speakers come into class and share their stories and open up allowing others to see what their life is like. Paco and Kohl thanks a bunch. Everything you guys are doing is great and is really appreciated. Keep up the inspirational work.

Creation Stories

After reading the different creation stories more questions came than answers. I found each story so different and so spectacular it just made me think more about things. I love hearing different views and ideas and to read these stories I was really drawn in. One thing I noticed is even when I read the same stories there were different adaptations and variations. Overall, the creation stories were great to read for the final paper I'm writing.
