About Me
- Nicole Hovdestad
- Hi! I'm Nicole, i'm from Sioux Falls, SD. During the year i stay pretty busy with sports, and i am a fan of almost every sport. But i would have to say that extreme sports are my favortie. Hanging out with my friends is a must for me and we always know how to have a good time. This summer was one of the hardest times i've ever been though but i'm hoping college is all that it's made out to be!

Most Dangerous Game and An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge
I know i have read these stories before in high school, and when i read them each time it makes me think about the different things that can go on in life or what used to occur. With An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge i hate to think that people used to get hung for things, and then with him thinking that he actually did get away but then never does it hurts to know he just dies in the end when he had that good thinking that he was free and was home with his family. And then in the story of the Most Dangerous Game, its always weird to here someone wanting to hunt after people. That General was not mentally stable and needed help and thankfully the guy could outsmart him and kill the General so that he would not hurt anyone else. And in all reality someone that is mental like that needs help so that things like that never happen, cause hurting other people is not okay by anymeans.

Omelas
Well i didn't really understand the first part of the reading, all i know is that it was talking about a town were people seemed pretty nice or acted that way. And then the boy in the room? like that is uncalled for and someone should have step into help him if everyone in the town knew about him being their and being treated like that. Its kinda like the bullying thing i'm doing for my research project if everyone knows something is going on and someone is being bullyied than someone should step and and help or tell someone so that the person can get help. Also the town seemed like a perfect little society when it actuallly had problems that many visitors didn't get to see and not many outside of the town knew about. I got pretty confused throught out the story i think it was mostly because of the jumping of different subjects.

writing process
I feel as though the writing process can either be really complicated or it can be simplifeid down. Many times i like when teachers review the writing process for me so that i can re teach myself and make sure i am getting all the right steps into writing my paper. I would hate to miss something very important that needs to be put in my paper. And many times i could miss the things i learned in like 2nd grade and then i would feel kinda dumb if i forgot something little in my paper. Due to that fact i find that the writitng process can be reviewed over and over but then again it is so interesting to relearn things.

paper evalve
In my paper i need to make many grammar corrections, and also take the time to rearrange my sentences in a order that is easier to read for the reader. Also i could change the intro to not be so related to what i have seen and delt with and put some more interesting facts about suicide and such. I also saw that i need to add some facts that will actual make people believe that these things will help stop suicide and not just prevent a couple a year. I need to also cut some pieces of info out of my paper because i am being to broad and putting in like two different topics

Topic
I would like to right my paper on teen fighter, this could explore the topic of things such as why teens fight, why there should be more places for teens to train. And also things like why do parents not want there teens cage fighting. Cage fighting has some benifits to it not just all of it is bad.

?
So after an interesting tuesday i'm not really sure what to write about, so i am just going to write about my tuesday because it was sure interesting. Tuesday i woke up early becuase i fell asleep before getting my sentence corrections done. But the night before i had just finished changing my paper up so that it fit more into what it was suppose to be. So i quick showered and got ready and then i finished my sentence corrections just in time for class so i packed things into my bag i headed off. As i was doing that i got a phone call from my best friend telling me all the gossip that was happening in sioux falls. Well i got to class and some how my paper had gone missing along with my CW, when i know i put them in my bag! Well i went back to my room and my roommate had exited out of my word document when i said to leave them up cause i didn't have time to save them. Well i then got a call saying that i would have to coach my soccer team all by myself that night due to my co-coach having to work all day. Well my team doesn't look as me as a coach they don't really respect me. So i got things done and headed back to sufu to coach and on the way i got flipped off by some random old guy! why i have no idea he just passed me after we were getting off the off ramp. My soccer team lost and it was a bad games the refs decided that there playing with the other team. And on my way back to verm i hit a skunk so that just smelled fantastic to have that smell for almost the whole way back.

The day we play the teacher
I found that doing the presentations, i found out many new ideas about how to write my paper. And also make it so much better with new draft ideas. Also many times i don't remember all the past techniques that i have learned in my past, and by us reviewing techniques that can help me re write and edit my paper. I also enjoyed working with other people in the class which help me feel more connected to the class. It brought back fun high school project memories
