Punctual punctuations and other rantings....

So yeah, it feels like forever since I have posted something on my blog. This has been mainly because of a very important reason. The large amounts of snowfall had frozen my brain. Now that my brain has thawed out I can commence to continue what I do best(well maybe the best).
On this beautiful morning, I went to my English class with a heart filled with happiness. I could finally get this Social discourse paper turned in. You may ask, "Why were so flustered about having it in your possession Nile?" I shall tell you. I am a habitual loser...no no no, not as in the opposite of a winner, but I misplace things,(close to how Dubya Bush "misplaced" WMDs). Most of the times these "things" are important; Things such as essays, keys, cars, babies and occasionally my house. Anyway, I have printed out my finished essay five times and have searched for the other ones with the vigorousness of a toddler searching for Waldo. I am rambling and I need to stop, but this is the view of "a brain on snow".
Anyway, today I was in Eng 111 learning about punctuations. Even at this moment, I am having to look back at my previous work, because I am sure I have misused them. I have to say that if punctuations were people and had feelings, they would be highly upset and dissatisfied with me and would probably rebel against me and my brain. They are like pawns in a chess game, they are so small and restricted, but as important as the queen. Sometimes I get the feeling writers take for granted the apostrophes, commas, and semi-colons of the writer world. I actually was shown an interesting sentence by Ms. Shaffer(my english professor). I think to say that it blew my mind would be an understatement. "Woman without her man is nothing." Depending on where you place the comma, depends how the meaning is interpreted entirely. If placed after woman and her, the sentence would imply that a man without a woman is nothing. If a comma is placed after man then the meaning is completely reversed. I have no idea how anyone else feels, but the English language is fascinating. Hopefully I can remember to implant these small entities into my writing correctly from now on. Speaking of essays...(sigh) I think it is time to buckle down and finish this Professional discourse essay. I have a good vibe about this weekend, due to the upcoming Chinese new year; The year of the Tiger. I shall devour this essay, like Shere Khan intended to do to Mowgli. So as I write this blog with the sounds of "Shiki No Uta" in my ears, my thoughts are beginning to wander to my future and career and interview questions. However, I still have a rogue thought that is pinching my brain. why have I developed such a social connection to my pen and pad, but I have become almost anti-social within this college atmosphere? I am thinking it has something to do with my fear; My fear that I may say the "right" thing at the "wrong" time. The "revolutionary in peacful times" that was within me has died...or at least been put in a coma. I say R.I.P. I appreciated the praise Ms. Shaffer gave me, but I am no brown-noser by far. Doctors save lives, Fireman put out fires and Politicians lie. I write because I love to write; Expressing myself simple and clean(well, sometimes just a little dirty) :Nile Najee: ようこそ私の考えに

Its slowly coming along....(more essay)

People decide to work in a particular field for a variety of reasons. It may be because it is a financially appealing career or it may be a line of work that runs in the family. Whatever the reason may be, there is no better way to understand the field that you want to choose then to fully research every intricate detail. Within the specific field of a College professor there are some key reasons for a person becoming one and of course there are reasons to discourage a person from being one. To begin with, many post-secondary teachers find the environment intellectually stimulating and rewarding because they are surrounded by others who enjoy the subject that they teach. College Professor has flexible schedules and the majority of the time chooses when they work and where. Much like college students they are responsible for getting work done (grading papers, attending meetings, other activities) but, there is no set amount of devotion that is required. College professors are able to participate in many non-academic activities due to this rigorous, but unrestricted environment. [bls.gov] This is the dream of an individual; Working and making money doing what you love around people who love the same thing. Skimming the surface of this career it seems like the right choice for anyone that would like to teach. The journey to get to this point is a long one and even when this idea of "love what you teach, teach what you love" is achieved; there are still complications as I mentioned earlier. Here is the deal, being a College Professor makes it harder for personal research to be done amid the grading of papers, creating homework and classroom assignments and answering large amounts of e-mail. What I have learned through writing my essay is that the work of a teacher can sometimes impede the important research and studies that can further a Professors career… :Nile Najee:

First Paragraph of Professional discourse essay...maybe

There are quite a few questions that are asked of you when you are a small child. A few of them are, what is your name, sometimes someone may ask how old you are or what your favorite color may be. Those questions are important and usually easily answered, but there is one question that can shape your future and start you on a path that may alter the way you challenge life’s many obstacles. Before this life changing question is revealed, lets flashback to when I first heard the question. It was fifteen years ago in an public school classroom not much different from the classrooms I attend in college;Students, eager to learn new material, and a teacher willing to give the students any and all valuable information so they can succeed. However, having information and knowing where to use it, is two different things. So now this is where the question asked of many school children comes into play, and in that classroom and many times after it was asked of me. "What do you want to be when you grow up Nile?” since that day i have answered with a variety of responses: President of the U.S.A, Archaeologist, a poet, a rapper, etc. Now I am nineteen years old, a freshman in college and I have been asked the same question. Surprisingly, the career that I have chosen is something that I never dreamed that I would want to do or had thought about doing. My indecisiveness has only allowed me to narrow my career down to a college professor; I am not completely sure what post-secondary subject I would like to teach at the moment. So this essay will include information regarding College Professors as a whole. I hope that the reader will learn as much as I did from my research and interviews within this manuscript and will understand the importance of fully knowing, "What you want to be when you grow up." :Nile Najee:
