Peer review on my communication group

We did a peer review on our group I said this, after the presentation of an invention that me and my group made we had to decide a topic for our next project. When we went up to the teacher we discuss what topics were available and she told us the ones we had were already taken so we had to choose safety on campus. At least we found a topic that we can discuss to the class and nobody took from us. So there’s a lot of things about safety on campus so we choose five categories and it was mental health, bullying, sexual-harassment, fire/theft and the University Police Department. Faviola had to do mental health I had to do bullying and Julia had to do sexual-harassment Eileen had to do fire/theft and Jasmine had to do it the University police department. My group was very cooperative and we shared a lot of ideas about our topic and what to write about them. Me and Fabiola had a lot of things in common in our topic so we discuss how we going to split it. In the first group meeting we talk...

Bullying on College Campuses

A lot of people think that bullying doesn't happen on college campus they think it happens only in high school, middle school, and elementary. Student’s safety in campus is bullying. Just because it is not often seen in college campuses, does not mean that it is not happening. Part of the problem why bullying continues to happen is because the victim does not report it, so that allows the bully to continue. Students need to realize that they are not alone, there is many resources available to help them. Most people think that bullying only occurs in kindergarten through twelfth grade, but that’s not the case it can also occur in college or through social media. It is important for colleges to spread more awareness that this is a problem and that it needs to stop. Possible reasons why students might bully other students could be because they are stressed, mad, hurt, or they want attention and they want to take it out on others. That just means that students who bully others also ne...

A conversation with the class

From my American government class we had a conversation about the immigrants and The daca that Donald Trump wants to take away from them. The daca is very important for the young immigrants it helps them go to school and let them achieve their dreams. But there are some republicans that want to help some immigrants. For example, Paul Ryan resigns from the house and the republican party because he didn't like want trump was doing with the country. Some ask me a Question to Paul If wants to help out the daca students he said he would like to help them out. Paul Ryan is going to push daca amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants.  This good strategy to help out the daca students and they can some hope to have their dreams. The Republicans don't want the immigrants to become fully citizens in the United States but the democrats do want them to become fully citizens. Republicans want to be illegal workers. Some people do want immigrants in the country because they think are crimi...

When I met my group for group discussions

When we first met our group we were all girls and we had no boys in our group. The first thing we did as group is we name our group the flaming pink flamingos we all like our name that we pick together so that was a good start for us. After we start to talk about the project and the days we are going to meet up so we can start the project before the due date. The first group meet we discuss what we are going to do on the project. For example, we talked about how the commercial going to be and what roles were going to do. Also we talked about how we are going to do on the poster and the website. Another thing we finished the slide show on the first group meet. We corporate and it went very well on the first day. The second group meet we talked about how were going to write about the letter and the script for the commercial.  So the group and I we started to write out the script first. And the first the script we did was talking about how it can help some college students. And the s...

Presenting our Product

In my group discussions class we had to present our project to the class. Our project was about massaging backpack for college students so their back won't hurt anymore. We called our backpack the Flamingo backpack it's for everyone that don't want to have back problems when there at a young age. One of the biggest problems college students face is having a heavy backpack. Students carry so much materials for a long period of time at school that the  task of lugging around so much weight becomes a burden. Backpacks are essential in an everyday college life but companies often focus on the aesthetic rather than the comfortability of the backpack. We as college students understand the back pain caused by an unsupportive backpack. We decided to make our main feature a solution to this problem. The Flamingo Backpack comes with a massaging section placed on the back portion and part of the straps designed to relax and relieve tension. To initiate the massage all you have to d...

First essay as a freshman

Omelas is a better world because there's only one person suffering and our world there's a lot of people suffering. In Omelas world everybody is treated the same and not like our world. Everybody in Omelas is worried about the person that is suffering but they can't do anything about the situation they wish they could. They can do anything they want in Omelas world they don't care what you do unless you're trying to save the person that is suffering in the basement. If you want to have a baby you have to go to temple and do your things to have a baby. Everybody in Omelas world is happy to live and they also say it's a beautiful place to live in except the kid that is suffering. At night when people past the building the thing they hear is the child saying “let me out , I will be good.” but nobody helps him they just ignore him. People in Omelas never get mad at each other there always good to each other. This way I prefer Omelas world than our world because you...

Our world

Everybody that lives in our world they say it's a good place to live in this world but really is not that great to live here. In this has a lot of great things and a lot of bad things in this world. The great things about this world is there's a lot to do in this world. For example, we can go on vacation with our families, have parties with our families, watch tv with the people you love, play video games, play outside with your family or your friends, and etc. That's what a lot people do when they have free time. The bad things about this world is there a lot of people that that don't about anyone else but themselves and sometimes people won't help others when they need it. Also a lot of people do a lot of drugs and it can turn them crazy. Then the world goes into war when countries fight each other and that's how a lot people suffer by the wars we do. Like countries want use nuclear stuff against each other but that will destroys the whole world. I don't ...

Groups

In the past in my high school me and my group were trying to do good in our presentation for Spanish. So we added some acting into our presentation so we can get a hundred percent for our presentation. At the day of the presentation we went first and presented our slides then we acted it out. Few days later we achieve a grade and we got hundred percent. Productivity probably happen to you and you were happy to achieve that grade. Back in my high school years for my English class we had to present more about are self like our ethnicity, gender, age and etc. I was working so hard on presentation so people can know more about me and more about my culture. The day we had to present it I presented last and it went very well. Now people knew more about me and my culture. Diverse membership probably everybody did this once in there life presentation about their culture. In the past in high school one time in my group its was very stressful because I had people that didn't want to do anyt...

Group discussions

In the past, in high school in my history class we had to pick our team so we can compete with another team. So obviously I join my friends so we can be a team. When everybody was done picking their team our teacher pick who we were going to compete against. My team had to compete with a all boys team. The day we had to compete the results came out good and we won. I was so happy for my team because we work so hard to achieve this award. Team is great thing to have or sometimes its not. Recently, in my group discussions class me and my group we engage with each other about our ideas. We name our group together and we very like the the name. Our group works together very well and we cooperate with each other. Pseudo-teams probably in group when you guys get along to get things done. In science class were we finish our project that we had to do but my friend didn't do it correctly we told him to fix it but he didn't want to. Are other group members were worried that we will get...

Government

Federal reach into additional issue areas previously reserved to the states has been bad because they were not being fair to the people. The people didn't get enough rights from the government. The government has rich people to not pay taxes because if they do pay taxes probably the rich people will leave somewhere else.  The middle class and working class have to pay for taxes and they take big chunk of your paycheck.  That's why the government its being fair to the people.Another reason why the government is bad because when they have a lot of power it's going hard for us because we will have less power to do anything against the government. Sometimes is just dirty and dishonest to the people. Do you think people like to pay a lot of taxes and healthcare and some families barley have money for themselves. It's really sad when government had to do this to everybody but expect the rich people. The government cares more about the rich people instead of middle class and ...

So I had to do all the slides in my group and I was getting stressed because I didn't know what to do in the presentation.in my science class we had to present our lesson to...

I learned from my parents that how to be a good person to everyone and don't be shy to meet new people they teach me this when I little it worked and I had a lot of friends in elementary, junior high, and high school but when I graduated high school a lot of my friends went to different schools now only have five friends in college but can meet more people in the future.

I get my help from the counselor and she tells what to do to apply for college.e. My counselor...

Junk Food

People are getting more obese because eating unhealthy food and that kids are becoming more obese over the years. Now fast food restaurants provide bigger size drinks and people are attempted to buy the bigger drinks. Now we also see people eating when there walking and eating when there driving it's very interesting what we do. When I heard this from the documentary its was so surprising to me that smaller the plate less you serve yourself.kids are eating a lot of junk food and becoming more obese because a lot of kids watch tv and they some advertisements that they will like it and want right way. It also that thirteen million died by being overweight. Its says that people fault because they make their poor choices.  When parents go to the grocery store with their kids and the parent are surrounded by the junk food the kid will cry for it and the parents will buy it for them so they can stay quiet. We should try to stop eating a lot of junk food. Also eat smaller portions of ...

Having a younger sibling

When our parents told me that they were going to have you I got a little nervous. And other siblings, our brother was happy and our sister was sad and mad at the same time because she wanted to be the only baby in the family. Some kids want a brother or a sister but some want to be the only one in the family. Never be scared to have a younger sibling. Only children will miss the experiences of a sibling relationships and of having to share their parents with siblings.”That's very sad If you are the only child.   Having a younger sibling will bring great company so you won't be an only child or be bored all the time. When your parents tell you that you're going to have a younger sibling don’t be be sad or mad:be happy for your parents. Having a sister or a brother is a blessing:(to have) they will be so close to you and they look up at you. Your sibling will say that you're their favorite brother or sister. Don’t do bad things when you are around your sibling because ...

I like she taught us this because if she didn't me and my siblings could of been not being respectful to each other and not doing are things that we have to do and not doing it right away. My little brother when he home from school he does his homework right away. I don't doing the stuff later on because I will get lazy and not do it. For example, When I was little after I go home few minutes later I get home I feel lazy to do stuff from and from school so I didn't do anything when my saw not doing anything she got me in trouble for not doing my homework and my chores I had to do . Now when I have chores to do I do my chores when she tells me to do it and also my homework from my classes. When one of my classes assign homework I will do my homework before its due but sometimes I forget to do it and feel guilty turning it in late so got to get better turn...

When I started school at Stan State and I had a breaks always attempting to buy food. The first week of school I brought lunch from home and I just people eating lunch from the dining hall or the warrior grill. The next few days I was still eating lunch from home I didn't mind but when see the snacks they have I am attempting to buy some and it's hard to not look. When went inside the dining hall and look at the prices its was so expensive so I decided to buy a slice a pizza and a slice pizza cost about threes dollars and a drink is around two dollars. Next week when I didn't bring lunch because I forgot to pack myself lunch. After all my classes were done I went to the warrior grill to buy some food and I look at the prices it was pricey and I bought four chicken tenders combo for seven dollars and fifteen cents. The food was good from the warrior grill. Sometimes if you buy food from Stan State it will waste your money so quick If you get it alot. Food from anywhere it...
