Strengths and Weaknesses

I am good at ideas and knowing what I wanted to write about. My word use is pretty good too. I usually just write my whole paper and then go through it and replace it with bigger words that sound more sophisticated. I don't know why but ideas are easy to generate.  My weakness is definitely the structure of my paper. I am not good at knowing what goes at the beginning, middle, and end of the paper. My end of the paper isn't that strong either because I don't know weather to leave the readers with something to think about or just to end it. 

HIts and Misses

I feel like I really did not do well in writing papers. It was kinda hard because I would ask for notes and what I should change but my paper still didn't do well. I got a tudor to help with my paper but that didn't help. I kind of just accepted the fact that I am not good at writing papers. I think I did well in tests in this class. I was also really good at knowing what is going on in the book. I can pick up context clues easily which is helpful. I liked taking tests because I know how to prepare for them. I study a lot for them because it is hard to know what is going to be on the test.

What makes you happy?

What makes me happy is when I make memories with my friends. I don't know why but the thought of making memories puts me in a good mood. For example, if I went on a trip with my friends, and we did something crazy I love that because instead of laying in bed watching countless shows of The Office, I am having a good time. Maybe it's not even a good time, I could probably make memories from it and I could laugh about it in years from now. Like whenever me and a friends had to walk a dog and the dog went to the bathroom on me, I laugh about it now.

Jaja's Trip to Nsukka

Jaja's life at home is super dull and is very planned out, so when he heard about his trip to his Aunt's house I would assume he would be excited. During the week he played football with his cousin, helped around the house, and did normal teenage things. He was definitely having a fun time. When he heard that he got to stay he was even more happier, so that shows his feelings about his home and going back. When he did go back he had definitely grown feelings about different things like religion, his dad, and the way he does things at home. For example he talked back to his father about Papa Nnukwu's funeral and converting him. Overall, Jaja had grown as a person during the trip.
