 What is your favorite book, magazine, or publication? Why?





My favorite magazine would have to be a playboy, i really don't usually read, so reading a magazine really isn't my thing i do like looking at those hot girls in the playboy books gets me going every time i can get my hands on one. I  mean who doesn't like play boy. so i would definitely say playboy is my favorite magazine to look at.

Journal - Most students view siting work as 'a pain in the butt'. How do you feel about it? Is it necessary? When is it appropriate to cite work? What's the importance of it?



i really hate siting and agree that it is a pain in the butt, especially if your borrowing thoughts from something old article or passage about something, like maybe the creators aren't even alive and can't do anything about it. its appropriate to site work when you borrow ideas for a presentation or paper your're working on, because if not you're stealing someones ideas. the importance of siting is to keep you out of harms way of being sued or even plagiarizing, which is academic dishonesty and MR. Bacon frowns upon that type of stuff so pretty important stuff.

 Tell me about your weekend. Where did you go? What did you do?






My weekend was pretty relaxed, i stayed home with the folks and just watched football. i went to the grocery store a couple of times with moms but that's pretty much it. I also went outside and shot some hoops with the fellas from the neighborhood that was pretty fun. O yeah! I played outside with my young family members pushed them around in there little cars it was kind of cute and UN-manly of me, but i love those little people so I could handle it for an hour or two.

 What is creating an outline for a paper important? Do you think it helps you personally? How would you prefer to outline a paper - pen and paper or an online tool? Is there a different way you know if that would prefer to organize your thoughts?




I think creating an outline is really important because, it really shows you how you will attack your targets and gather your thoughts before you start with your paper. I prefer to outline my paper with stating my topic then giving it enough evidence to back it up. I like to use pen and paper because it's quick and easy and i can fix and add things. If i had to choose i would definitely organize my thoughts the way they are.

Who do you look up to in life? Why? What have they done to help you or guide you?




I don't look up to anyone, not because i don't want to i just never felt the need to. i wake up every morning and i stare life right between the windows of it's soul and i say, I AM GREAT, I WILL BE GREAT IN ANYTHING I DO.  I use the life lessons i've had through my young days to motivate my self also using relatives and friends to motivate me also to not make the same mistakes or just do stuff different . i look for GOD (Jesus) to do a lot of the guiding, i try my best to live for him and just thank him for just being in my life.

 What is good email etiquette and why is it essential in the "real" world? How can having good email etiquette put you ahead?


i don't think it's really that important because you should wanna show your character in your writing, yes write formal and proper use the skills you learned in school, but don't be a robot show you when you write, i feel like; businesses, colleges, co-workers would respect you a whole lot more if they saw you for who you were. Be like the transcendentalist, now have good sense and use grammar, all that proper good stuff, if someone can't accept you for who you are guess you shouldn't be around them or either work for them

Tell me if you agree with this statement and then explain why or why not. "Images on the internet are 'free game' - if someone posted I should be able to use it."



                                          I agree, as long as it's not put into a commercial or advertised. i feel like it's fair game. it's not like you're trying to steal their idea. it's just borrowing.  If i owned an image i wouldn't be upset if someone used my image in their project or something minor like that. So really you have to look at this both ways yea it can be a big deal taking someone image, but depending on what they do with the image is what matters.

 If there was one big global issue in the world that you could fix, what would it be? A cure for cancer? Save the rain forest? Stop pollution? Think about it and then write about it. Why would you choose that specific issue?



                                                Poverty, I choose poverty because it saddens me to see someone struggling to survive because they don't have anywhere to live or eat, but still i see buildings being build, schools getting computer but we can't or choosing not to build shelters or homes that unfortunate people can call their home, Poverty is such an easy fix, i mean come on WWJD (WHAT WOULD JESUS DO). I just believe poverty is something we can solve.  A little help can go a long way. even helping foreign countries, lets not be so quick to bomb, but quick to give.
