Research update



       My research topic for this project is the impact of Christopher Columbus. At first it was very hard to find the kind of information I was looking for but then I continued to find better articles that were more useful to my cause.  Ever since then everything has been going pretty smoothly. The annotated bibliography was very easy to do and it helped me analyze how I am going to answer my research question and what articles I am going to use to back up my answer.

       I am still sort of nervous about the notecards but as I start to do them it will get easier. But having  just done three it is pretty easy to do considering the fact that I found some sources for information that I need. The research went well and the organization is still a bit stressful yet it is very easy.

    It sounds like your project is pretty straight forward.

March Madness

March Madness is my favorite part of the basketball season and is probably my favorite way that any sports season is ended. March Madness is the NCAA tournament that has 64 teams and 6 different rounds. This tournament is always very fun to watch and it is fun to pick the brackets for who you think is going to win. This is something I have been doing every year for a while. I am usually pretty good at this but this has been my worst year in a while. This years tournament has had more upsets than I have ever seen. The most shocking of which made history when the 16 seeded UMBC beat Virginia the overall 1 seed.  This also happened to be who I had picked to win the tournament and my bracket was already done for before the second round. Then there is also Loyola Chicago who has made it into the final 4 tied for the highest seed to make it there. This was overall no ones year for picking a bracket.

My Choice- Grief

Grief is something everyone in the reservation has dealt with at least twice before the time they can drive. They grieve when they have lost another member of their family. They lose most members of their family due to alcohol. The people are so used to dealing with grief that it seems to show way differently with them than it does with people not as accustomed to death. To these people grief is something else,  “Grief is when you feel so helpless and stupid that you think nothing will ever be right again, and your macaroni and cheese tastes like sawdust, and you can't even jerk off because it seems like too much trouble.”-Sherman Alexie, Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian.  Arnold feels that he has to experience so much grief in his life and it makes him feel completely helpless.  Nothing feels the same to him when he is grieving and it is something he has to deal with multiple times during the book. Grief is a problem Alexie shows has much precedenc...
