My Journaling Journal Analysis
Sarah,
I really enjoyed reading your journal this week. What first caught my attention was the way that you introduced your journaling topic. I thought that the introduction was funny and it showed a little bit of your voice as a writer, all while introducing your topic. I also liked how you described your family traditions. I felt that you described them in such a way that the reader could feel a sense of your and your family's personalities. Finally, I liked reading about this topic in general. I think it was a good idea, and it was in no way boring to read.
Of course, along with the great things about your journal, I did notice a couple of things that you co of course of could improve on. Maybe editing a little bit more carefully in terms

    The book you wrote about your life The Other Side of the Sky I thought was very intense and suspenseful overall an amazing story. I just can’t get over the fact that not only against all odds, seeing that you were two women in the Middle East and all but also you had to pretty much take care of your mom through your journey to America. I also loved how you really kept the faith and stayed strong, that must have been hard when at some points like after 911 it seemed like you weren’t going to America at all, I really do admire your determination. Now how was it that you knew America would be like Germany, when you were trying to convince your mom to apply for the world relief program you always used your trip to Germany as a comparison…

    As I lay in that dark, cold hole, naked and emaciated I had lost all hold on reality and thought that I was dead, not to mention my whole family as well. I had never been more fearful in my life, paralysed by the fear of not knowing what they were going to do with me or if I was going to make it through to live another day. Then you came along, your warm caring touch and generosity restored my faith in humanity and gave me some hope, something to fight and live for. Somehow you were always there for me when I needed you the most, always bringing food and providing me with water, risking your own life in the process.…

    In his article “The Loss of The Creature,” Walker Percy presents the case that people or so-called “creature’s” experiences are most often trivial because of our actions. Percy believes we can only truly enjoy these experiences if we leave the old ways of thinking . Only then can we see the true beauty of the experience. Percy gives three examples to prove his point. His first example describes a tourist’s plans to go see the Grand Canyon. Oftentimes, tourists have preconceived expectations about the wonder, and feel that they are let down with a dreary sight rather than the things they have fantasized. The second example Percy uses is of a couple who, while wandering through Mexico looking for an “unspoiled” place to get lost in. They stumble upon an Indian village and live with the locals for a little while. After returning home, they tell their friends that they had an experience better than they expected. The third example Percy uses is that of a biology teacher who gave his students a dogfish to dissect. The students look at the dogfish as another specimen to be dissected for a grade instead of trying to learn about it as a piece of unexplored creation. In his article “The Loss of The Creature,” Walker Percy attempts to show how in our experiences we do not really see what we think we see. I believe he was correct, however, I did not always believe this. When I first read “The Loss of The Creature,” it did not make sense to me. After rereading it and thinking about what Percy said, I started to understand.…

    In the past a thousand weeks, I feel like I have accomplished a great deal. As the quarter ends, I find myself reflecting not only how I have survived my fifth quarter but also what I have learned. The most important thing I have learned so far is how to become a better writer. I did not think it could really happen to me. I did not think I could handle all the work. I did not think I could actually become a better writer. Somehow, after all the hours of writing, and putting effort into my papers that I wrote in this quarter, I became a better writer. I did this because I concentrated on two very important areas. With help from an awesome teacher and my partner, I have become a better writer by improving my skills in the areas of procrastination and content.…

    What I liked about your writing was your perception, clarity and being concise. As well as the other five C’s of communication, including concrete, correct, coherent, complete, and courteous. As a reader, I believe you wrote to your audience and touched upon the purpose. You did so in such a way, that I later read an article and thought the relevance of your research topic. Please see below. You wrote a phrase on examining the workforce in America. The interaction with your writing also reminded me of Robinson (2011), “The War For Talent” (p. 70). Clearly, educational information catches my attention, as did your purpose. As my focus of writing continues to enhance, the need for me to learn from journalism and peers review in my own…
