I did not have an initial understanding of the word hiraeth. My first time of hearing the word hiraeth was the first day of class. I did what anybody would do if they did not know a word. After I read the Wikipedia meaning of hiraeth , I had a better understanding on the project itself. I would like to write about the sadness over the losting my mom. Hey mama, I don't know where to start at. Their are so many thing I want to tell and ask you. Let start by telling you I’m sorry. I been acting like fool , but I did keep my promise that I was going back to school. I got my G.E.D seven years on the same month we went our separate way. Right now I’m enrolled in Delaware County Community College. My major is engineer. You always said I was good at math just like you. I remember you said you went to Winder so I just might follow your footsteps. Its sad Jada and Logan Washington will never meet the best grandma ever. I know they would of love you. Me and Jada was talking about you the other day. She saw a picture of you on my wall. You know how kids are asking 21 questions and more. I was happy to tell her about you. I know recent years you wanna to whoop my butt. I’m sorry for how I was acting in the past but as you can see I’m on the right track mom. I still make mistake some bigger than other. I just want to let you know I think about you everyday and night. P.S Thankful for all the blessing you send my way even if I didn’t follow thru with it.

My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. Ever since I was a child I will rebuild thing such as cd player and ect. I have enjoyed building things. Engineering would let me express my love for creating things, and allow me to apply my science and math skills. A lot of people ask me why mechanical engineer for your major. First of all I love learn math and science. You get the opportunity to create something will be used by other and that’s the greatest joy. Mechanical engineer is the second branch of engineering. My career options are open even after I graduate. You can learn how to design and make thing from a safety pin to a spacecraft. Get paid handsomely after gaining a few years experience. I can see myself working for small firm. Roughly 20 people working at the build. Starting work around 8 or 9am. Working as a team to get the project done on time. Everybody idea get hear. Will build a long term relationship with co-worker. Get the chance to learn from all my co-worker. Less we got to put in overtime to get the project done we will get off at 5pm. My family will be so proud of me. Career that pay well and I love doing is a plus. It can be hard to focus on the work in front of you. Especially when it’s something you don’t want to do. Unfortunately, even a quick distraction like a text message can mess up your writing process. Carolyn Chute describe about a average day of her life in the article “How Can You Create Fiction When Reality Comes to Call (Carolyn Chute) ” A lot of student face the same problem when it coming down to writing a essay or just doing homework. The main problem student face is distractions. The question is how to stop distractions. I believed you can't stop distraction. You can try your best to avoid them but something or someone going to come while you are trying to get your work done. My main two distractions are Jada and Logan Washington. If they don't want something, they are arguing about something. That means I have to stop doing work and handle their needs. If my kids not bothering me than my phone is ringing. Probably one of my friends need help or want to socialize about something that's not important. Last but least never failed me, my girlfriend complaining about I don't show her enough attention. If she not talking about that. It's about some drama at work. Do I believe I can become a better writer ? Yes, I believe I can get better at anything if I practice. Reading and writing more should bring the best out of me and learning new words. I read this unique article "6 Ways to Be a Hemingway-Level Productive Badass (Drake Baer)” In this article gave me the idea to list six steps to be a better writer and avoid distractions.

Eng100 03/28/17 In Joan Didion essay “Why I Write” she describes the way she write and why. She stole the title from George Orwell. Didion describes “In my way writing is the act of saying, of imposing oneself upon other people,of saying listen to me, see it my way, change your mind.” Listen I’m Joan Didion meaning I'm not writing to get anything published. When I was younger and still right now I hate writing and reading. I use many forms of writing ,texting , typing, and writing some down on a paper. I would like to tell you how writing help me a lot one time of my life. November 2015 can't remember the exact date. I was going 3 months without talking to my family. Roughly 3 weeks without on a minute conversation with anybody. At this point of I read everything i had in my room. My imagination was crazy. To be real I was feeling bit crazy. I was flipping my mattress around when I saw a note pad. I forgot all about this note pad of mines. When I saw this i feel like a kid in a candy store. Immediately I stop what i was doing and starting to thinking about this story. I had so many ideas didn't know where to start at. Finally I arrange my ideas in order the best way I could. Now I find a hobby that will keep me occupied. Time was flying because if i wasn't writing i was thinking about what i'm going to write. what new character to put in the story. Why I write? 2015 of November I was writing just to be heard. |
