When describing the visuals, I can see someone at work daydreaming about there nature background on there computer, closing there eyes, and visualizing as if they where there. In the second part of the poem my interpretation is similar to the first part that people don’t have to go anywhere to see nature, it can be seen on computers or through the Internet. In this part though it goes more it to detail on that they will teach themselves on how it would feel to be actually out in nature. Therefore they actually feel almost as if they have actually visited locations like the scenes in the first part of the poem. Throughout the poem it says that everything will be stored and “nothing will be lost.” Even though computers can have there downfalls and loose information, but for the most part you can save everything on separate devices.
Especially if you are as far away from home as he is. One finds in the reading that he misses home and his way of life there. The main thing that I got out of the story is the importance of a strong sense of who you are. Through Whitecloud’s imagery and thoughts, he lets readers know what makes him the round character he is. The story clearly starts while he is at school as he describes the night’s sky that distracts him while trying to study.
Although I hadn’t yet become comfortable writing about my past during the first few quarters of school, I enjoyed writing for academic growth. I enjoyed analyzing and debating the issues, reflecting on books we had read, or just journaling my thoughts about the day. It wasn’t until my second year at Evergreen that I was able to revisit some of my past experiences and childhood memories by writing a required memoir for one of my classes. This process was very difficult, and I found myself re-writing over and over again. The experience, although very painful has sparked a desire in me to tell my life
By the time my day is over, my writing would be useless anyway. In A way of Writing, William Stafford states “Most of what I write, like most of what I say in casual conversation will not amount to much.” Like Stafford, I’ll have so many ideas to write about, but they’re all foggy in my head, and for some reason, I just can’t get them on paper. That is why I choose to do my writing in the mornings. I’ll go to bed early at night to make sure I get plenty of rest, than I’ll wake up bright and early and write before anyone in my house is awake. Before I go to bed, I set out my books, my laptop and all my papers.
3. Do you feel like you have a lot of stress in your life? Why or why not? Explain how you think exercise helps out with stress. Yes, I tend to have a lot of homework and just not enough time to do it.
So I made this decision cleaning the house while any of my kids or daycare kids were at home was like shoveling while it's still snowing. The only answer was to make sure that no one was at home when I cleaned. Next obstacle was how to do that? When you run a daycare during the day and then your kids are at home at night it was going to be almost impossible. But the key words were “Almost Impossible”.
It is best to study one topic at a time and to review the notes and materials frequently throughout the week. Having a good place to study is crucial to the learning process. Find a place that is quite with little distraction and has sunlight or light to help focus on the material in front of you. I know that I like to study on my bed, but this is the wrong place for studying. It is so easy and tempting to lie down and fall asleep.
I’ve learned in my past years of reading and writing is that there is no perfect way to do it. It took me a lot of practice to be able to overcome my worst fear of learning how to read. I never thought being a bad reader would have happened to me, but it did. I learned that if I set my mind to becoming a better reading it would happen, which it
I then continue on with my writing. I feel most comfortable writing at a place that I am familiar with. Comfort, a sense of security and quiet, really help me to concentrate. I don’t write well when I am surrounded by multiple conversations, but I can overlook them if I have too. Typically my writing occurs during the day, but sometimes I write at night.
Earlier in my career, I was a bit of a workaholic and tended to bring work home with me. This resulted in a dismal personal life which eventually permeated negativity into my professional life as well. In light of that, over the years I have created rules for myself to remedy that initial error and in doing so this has become one of my strengths. My other strength, being proactive, stems from the lack of this quality in my current career field. More often than not it is more imperative to be reactive in my line of work.
