Columbus



        In my research paper I will be evaluating the impact of Christopher Columbus and his voyages. I will try to convince my reader that Columbus had a positive impact on history. This is due to his large impact on economy and his increasing of globalization by causing the age of exploration. I will also address the counter argument that he had a negative impact due to his causing of many racial stereotypes.

       Columbus did many things in his voyages that had positive impacts on the world. I would have to say that the best thing he did was inspiring other explorers causing the age of exploration. This caused huge changes in economy and increased global knowledge a ton. Columbus did many great things even though he was far from perfect.

    I think that Columbus gets a bad reputation for killing may native peoples. It is interesting to see all the positive things that came out of his voyages instead of the negatives.

        Thanksgiving break can be so annoying. We have so much homework and it stresses me out the entire break. I wish we could have a whole break with no homework. But I guess that is just too much to ask for. I get that we need to keep our minds refreshed sometimes but we get so much homework it does so much more than that.        Thanksgiving is also just not my favorite holiday in general. We have to all just sit together and eat and it is so boring. Thursday was definitely my least favorite day of the break. It isn't my moms favorite holiday because eating food we don't especially like isnt our favorite pastime. So this holiday gets on my nerves.

Narrative response

     I think that my personal narrative is definitely a work in progress but so far it is pretty good. I think that the writing small groups were very helpful and I got good, positive feedback on my narrative. Was told that my narrative had good vivid detail and I was glad because I know that that is something important in a personal narrative. I think that if I continue to improve and build on what I already have then it will become a very good narrative.      I thought that the feedback I got on how to improve my narrative was even better. I was told to add dialogue which I am struggling with but I know that it will be a lot better. I was also told to describe what the best part about cross country was and I think that it will be an interesting direction for the narrative to go in instead of just naming all of the things that I like. I think that this feedback will make the difference in a good grade and a bad one.

LSU beats Florida

     Florida is one of the teams that I just can't stand. Their football team is bunch of arrogant guys who have more attitude than talent. I've been waiting for this game ever since last year when we lost on the 1 yard line. Watching the game this year I was so nervous and I just wanted us yo win so bad. We went up by 14 and I thought that we were just going to win like that and then before you know it it's 17-10 and they are driving down the field.      Then they scored and I started to think that we were going to lose. But then all of a sudden they missed the extra point and I felt rejoiced. We went on to win the game and I was so happy that even though Danny Etling had a terrible game, we still won. I was the happiest ever after an LSU game besides Alabama games when we win. Revenge has been served.
