As our society develops a greater dependence on technology, in an effort to connect our world globally, the level of sympathy and intimacy in communication and interaction is declining. Through endless options of social networking, it is easier to connect with those who live far away, who would otherwise receive paper and pen letters. Though, in today’s world, instead of taking the time to write a long thorough and sincere letter, busy lives provide the luxury and accessibility of typing a few words of gratitude and kindness paired with only having to press the send button, instead of enjoying a nice walk to the post
If it were in a form of a website it could perhaps be more enticing and more appealing to me, but alas it is not. It seems to be something that my parents would read and do nothing about, it generally seems ineffective and stale, the facts and statistics it brings up although true they seem to be a far cry from a real word context and because of that it seems like propaganda to make people second think using a social network despite its best efforts to shroud such an intention. In conclusion I feel that the Collegian is a better text relative to
The advantages of this method of communication is that Samir would find a way to communicate without him, express his feeling and interact more with others. However the disadvantages of British sign language is that it is not suited for people like Samir, as he does not have a hearing impatient, but he is partially sighted so seeing the signs but be a problem.

Critiquing an Essay with George Orwell’s six rules In Orwell’s essay he states that it is easy to slip into the bad writing that people have become accustomed to. It is difficult to go against the temptation of using the easy way out with meaningless words or hackneyed phrases that make things easier and require less thought. Orwell concludes that the progressive decline of the English language is reversible and he offers six rules which can help avoid most of the errors in poor writing. In Brenda Chow’s essay The Writer at Work, she breaks many of the six rules that Orwell wrote to avoid the continuation of our language decline. Chow breaks the following 3 rules: never use a long word when a short one will do, never use a simile, metaphor, or other figure of speech which you are seeing in print, and never use a foreign phrase, a scientific or jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
According to Vonnegut , you should fine the subject that you care about In which you in your heart feel other should be care about.

These quotes is relevant to me that in every fault or failure I make I don’t have to be defensive about it but accept these mistakes and to use them as stepping stone to improve myself and change for the better. “Well done is better than well said.” and “Speak little, do much.” [The meaning of these words is fairly easy to understand, but they serve as an excellent reminder to us. The things that we DO for others are so much more important than the things we SAY to others. In other words: “Actions Speak Louder Than Words.” So simple… but so very important to the relationships we are trying to build every day. These quotations are very relevant to me, especially because I am a very expressive or kind of a talkative person.
I do not have any misconceptions about writing I'm just very out of practice and I'm sure with time it will become a lot easier and feel more natural. I need to focus on staying on topic, grammar and punctuation. I tend to go off topic once I get another idea something similar but not part of the idea I was going for in my paper. In order to improve this weakness is by keeping my ideas organize will help me stay on topic After reading chapter one it gave me a new motivation to learn about writing.

Some people use their smart phones to jot down items in their notes while others lean towards the old tried and true method of pen and paper. Whatever method you use, it's best to write down the items you need as soon as you realize you need them. Having a list in hand when you enter the store allows you to make less impulsive purchases and helps you to stay on track. The probability of coming out of the store with something that wasn't on your list is pretty high because we all are guilty of picking something up that we don't need but we get it anyway. A list won't stop you from doing this but it will certainly limit it and set you in the right direction.
There was only a simple law, and that was to not read books as well as think, making “the mind drink less and less.” This doesn’t seem much of a sacrifice because society was filled with far more excitement than literature could offer. Meanwhile, new technology helped people do everyday chores and made life simpler, leaving more time for fun. Like Beatty said, “Life is immediate, the job counts, and pleasure lies all about after work.” Entertainment ruled their society. The parlor walls seem like a god compared to our TVs. The seashell radios are convenience at its best.
