Pop psychology
The experiments strengthens is obviously being able to control the enviroment. You cannot get this kind of advantge outside a lab. The scientists can set a the enviorment the way they would like it to be then set back and watch the results. If they see something they dont like they can change with ease. A couple economic terms she uses is "bubble", dividends, profits, crashes. She explains them well enough to someone who isnt well versed in these terms can understand and therfore understand the whole article and find out what she is trying to show us. One of the most recent economic problems that have been the crash of 2008. Using this study we can find out what went wrong such as similarities and we can prevent some of those things from happening again.
My Dog Meeko
I have had my dog Meeko for about two years now. He has done so much for me in the past two years that I have a completely new found love for animals and humans. I got him just as my childhood dog passed away from cancer. He was a beagle, Meeko is an American bull dog mixed with pit bull. So this was a completely new kind of breed. After my first dog died we were searching for a new dog. Someone to fill in my dogs shoes. We looked at labs, golden retrievers and German Shepards. At the time my parents were absolutely against the idea of getting a pit bull. I always wanted a pit bull for the longest of time but they would absolutely not have it. The reputation that they carried filled my parents head and that made up their decision. Having met very few pitbulls they did not understand the breed. They went by what the media and other people have said about the breed. Then one day at church my mother was talking to a mother of 2 kids. She was telling my mom about the pitbull they bought at the flea market. They bought a small pit bull puppy for $200. My mom was surprized how could she have bought such a dog. She later went on to explain how they didnt know how treat the dog. The father would hit him after he would pee in the house. They fed him hotdogs and dog treats. They wanted to sell him. My mom said she would help them sell him. We went to their house later that night to take pictures of him and post them on a social media site. We were greeted by a puppy full of energy. Biting anything soft and squishy to relieve the pain from the growing teeth. We held him, took some pictures and left. We talked about the conditions that he was in and figured that he would be better off in our house till we could sell him. My father was not happy with the idea but when faced with the majority going against him he had no choice. We came back and the family happily gave him to us. We never sold him. After time flew by my dad has a new found love for pitbulls he admits he was wrong about the breed and now absolutely loves our Dog Meeko. Its funny how things work.

writing process before college
I felt that i wast using my opinion as much as i am now. I guess i have gotten better. i feel like writing a long essay isnt as a hard thing to do now. I now i can come up with enough substance and a more of a quality style of writning. I know i write my own way.
My career goals
Well I plan to get a business degree. Im going to start looking into culinary schools. I want to become a chef or sue chef. I really enjoy cooking and would love to get into it. Other than that i just want to focus on college and find something i want to do. I don't want to end up hating my life. This is a weird time in my life. Well every moment in life is weird. I would also like to get back into stand up comedy. I havent had the chance because of work. but im thinking of quitting and finding another job that i can have Mondays off. We will see.

Today I learned and saw somethings that were quite intriguing. I woke up this morning to go to work. I usually dont work on Saturday but since the holidays the drivers at my work have been backed up and started working Saturdays also. I had my friends sleep over so we can go to work in the morning together instead of driving back 40 mins to his house and then back here in the morning. So that is what we did. I get there and it was just us two and three other drivers that work there. Non of the part timers were there, i then knew work was going to be a little slow. During my time there i worked with a guy named pete. He looks like a burnt potato chip, or an Egyptian. Very strange looking fellow. Last night my boss said he had a drinking problem. So I thought about that while I worked with him. I thought he was a loser, i didnt really feel bad for him at all. To me he was an example of what not to do. I thought i shouldnt become like this piece of shit. I then thought that alcoholism was a disease and then waited to feel bad. That feeling never arose. Maybe because it was the morning.

I felt a funeral in my Brain.
The way she honors the memory of Schulz is quite interesting. She puts him in a light that seems like he was a genuis yet no one understood him. He created these wonderful cartoons not because he was a happy person, But because it was the only time he was happy. She talks about the genus in his cartoons. She says that the charterers represented the personality of the writer himself. for example she talks about snoopy. How he has a sort of thick skin. People yell at him and sometimes make him feel bad, yet he does not seem affected by it. He stays happy no matter what and seems to make his reality small and simple. She describes the strips in just what they say. She focuses on the writing and how brilliant it was. She makes you look at the text without really any other distractions that you would possibly get while looking at images also.

How am i revising my draft.
Well i am going to revise my draft just like i have been doing for a while now. I start off by reading it out loud either to myself or someone that i live with. Then i begin to find out what kind of holes i have in the paper. If i go into a rant or not. If i do, do i have the right wording to bring it all back. I then read the intro and conclusion. I ask myself if it makes sense. I wrap it up with reading it again. I make sure it is the essay i want it to turn in.
