Writing as a freshman

There were many writing assignments through out the freshman year. I have to say that the best writing assignment I completed this year was the research paper. I enjoyed writing this paper, because it was about my favorite time in history. I got to see in detail how World War II unfolded and super powers contesting against each other after the war. I think that another successful paper I wrote was the flashback to my visit to the Naval academy. I enjoyed writing this paper, because it brought back good memories from my vacation last summer. In this paper, I found it hard to make it the full 3 pages. The final good writing assignment I had was the writing assignment on Cinder. I did well on this, because I enjoyed reading the book and knew all the information.

The paper I struggled with the most this year is the literary analysis. This assignment was difficult due to having to figure out an unique argument with textual evidence to support the claim. Another challenging assignment for me was a poem about anything. Poems require so many things and all of the attributes required in it, or not useful in life at all. The poetry unit was hard to write in due to the uselessness to me. The final difficult assignment this year was this blog. This blog has required me analyze what I have done this year. It has been hard to decide what has been done well and not so much.

    The research was one of my favorite papers to write also. The literary analysis was very challenging because it was your own idea and there were so many things to write about. Good job on your blog.

Jetpack Joyride used to be one of my favorite games. Jetpack Joyride is a game where you play as a character that stills a jet pack from a science facility. The point of the game is to get as far in distance as you can. The game only has one control, which includes only tapping the screen to give power to the jet pack. There are also special vehicles in which a each has a special power. This game was one of the first games I ever played, and I recently downloaded again. This has brought back nostalgia. Jetpack Joyride brings back memories of times that were less stressful. This game while it is a fun game, I like because it brings back memories of good friends in which I haven't talked to in years. These friends that played Jetpack Joyride as well. Jetpack Joyride has also brought a sense of no worries in the world, which was the case when I first played. This game has overall brought my mood up and made me happy to be alive.

What have I learned in my teens?

Many things have happened to me as a teenager. The most memorable of them is being informed that the earth is flat by Josh Wilson. There have been some real life lessons that I have learned as, do not ever talk politics in public, especially with your friends. Talking about politics is really easy way to ruin relationships with people you dearly care about. I have had quite a few friends that I do not talk too much because of politics. This is a lesson, I know, many people will never learn.  The other biggest thing I have learned as a teenager, is how awesome America and its history is. When I read American history, I can not help but feel so patriotic and respect those who have sacrificed to get America to where it is. This is something I learned while researching various topics in school. All the history classes end up talking about America in some way, shape, or form. This is my favorite thing I have learned at school and as a teenager.

Blitzkrieg

I am doing my research topic on the German blitzkrieg from World War II. My favorite part of this story is the origin story. I like how after the lose of the Great War, the Germans have rebounded with an almost unstoppable force. The Germans avoiding the trenches that caused so much pain in WW I, invade almost all of Europe initially successful. See what happens next week on European history! This just sounds like a reality TV show. The Germans had such a brilliant strategy that astonishes me today and shocked the world when it happened. The Germans would use armored divisions to punch pockets in enemy lines. The armored divisions would shoot through them, exposing the flanks of the enemies. Then they would to continue to encircle the enemy forces, draining their supplies. The Germans would then pounce on the pocket wiping out the enemy forces.
