    Determining your personal thinking style can be a bit challenging because it is such raw material. However, I can agree that I do carry some characteristics of being conventional and oppositional. In my personal life, sad to admit, I can come off as being negative in different situations. I can recall one particular situation that actually bothers me still today. A friend of mine called me to tell me she was giving a speech at a high school graduation and she was so happy to be able to give back to the community we grew up in. I particularly remember replying with “the kids will not listen to you, they can’t be helped”. She immediately got upset with me because she didn’t understand why I would have such a negative response to something so positive. I didn’t want it to come off as being jealous of her opportunity but I tend to say what’s on my mind before thinking about how I would make someone else feel. Considering I still hold that conventional characteristic, I felt the need to explain myself because I did respect how she felt about me hurting…

    My primary personal thinking style is Power (8 O' clock position). This measure on how demanding and controlling I am all of the time. This shows that feeling in charge; I tend to feel threatened and helpless when I'm not in full control of a situation. I notice that most of my friends tend to be quiet when I start to get hostile in feuding conversations. Below are statements that describe how power thinking styles affect me:…

    If you were ever curious about why you think and act the way you do, why you are cold and calculated or intuitive and slightly disorganized, it is said to be contributed to which side of the brain an individual favors. Basically, the theory of left-brain or right-brain dominance states that each side of the brain controls different types of thinking. People are said to prefer one type of thinking over the other. There are several varieties of quizzes supporting this theory circulating the world wide web. Do these claims have any scientific merit? Well according to scientists, it is just one big myth. Are you realistic, rational and logical? Do you consider yourself emotional, spontaneous and creative? The theory of left-brain or right-brain…

It is just filled with 5 poetic lines which we had to either do a free verse poem, poems without rhyming or patterns and that don‘t follow any rules, or a blank verse which is a poem that uses no rhyming but has iambic pentameters (patterns). Or you can do a rhyme verse which is a poem that uses rhyming. My poem is blank verse because even though I have no rhyming I have a pattern. You see I repeat the word “reason” a few times and it follow a pattern.…

    It is true what they say: “Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward”. This saying has been more evident in my life in the last 13 years. I got pregnant at 16, gave birth to my son at 17, got married and gave birth to my eldest daughter (my 2nd child) when I turned 18, gave birth to my 3rd child at 19 and even before I hit 21, I had already broken up with my spouse. I was a high school graduate with no one and no where else to turn to except my mom, who died a year after I left my husband.…
