Assignment #10- Thinking Critically About Peer Review

I feel that doing a peer review is very helpful expect when we have people who are reviewing that do not understand how the essay is supposed to be reviewed.  When I try to review a paper I am confused to how reviewing works, but that is only because of my disability it is a little difficult for me to review essay.  In order for the peer review to improve what we need to do is have more than one person look at it.  We should have about three people in the class look over the essays. 

The weakest that I have is that I am unable to have problems with the grammar or the stature of the essay.  I can not find run-on or fragments.  I feel that the only strength that I have is understanding how to organize the essay and if there is more details that are needed.

What I feel would be a good peer review process would be if a person looks for the essay after I am done and is able to make sure that I do not have any types of problems with the grammar. The process would be a one on one try of thing but after one group looks at the essay we would move to a new group to form a new group and have someone else look at the essay.  I feel that if we have someone else we could get a new view for our essay.  When we have to redo the essay before we turn in the final we would do one more quick review then have the essay due on the next class. 

Assignment #9- A Helpful hint on Love

Why do we all try so hard to find someone that will love us? If you love yourself then you will be able to find the person that will love you for you. I have been able to find that person and he loves all the weirdness that I have to give to him. When I first met him I do not know that he would be the one I would want to be with forever, but here we are 3 years later and I am just high on life because I can just be myself without getting criticized about it. But not everyone is lucky the first time around.  

Sometimes you feel that you finally found that one person, but they surprise you by breaking up with you and tearing up your heart into in pieces and they do not even care about what they have done to you. Take a timeout and you look back on hoe you tried to give that person all your love you have, but they just throw it out the window. We are already chained to the fact of wanting to have the approval of the ones that you love.  Sometimes we have to leave in order to follow our dreams even if it might mean losing the one that you love, but if they love you they will be able to wait for you until you can come back to them. You have to remember that there is always going to be someone out there for you, there are a lot of fish in the sea, which is what a lot of people are always saying. If you just open your heart and show who you are yourself, you could be able to find the one that is for you, someone that will just love you.  If you are feeling that you will never find the right person then just do not look right now give your heart some time to reopen itself, and when you feel ready you will just know it by being able to feel it in your soul. So never give up on love and it will always find a way to you.

Assignment #8- Thinking About Arguments

Don’t Presume to Know a Pig’s Mind

In the Article, it is about how pigs are mistreated in order for the farmer's companies to make more money.  It is a way for the rich to start rich and the poor people to stay poor.  The Chipotle website says that they only use happier pigs??? But how can you measure pigs happiest when we cannot even understand what pigs are thinking.  We do not understand what pigs like in weather at all.  They put pigs in a gestation crates that can control the amount of pregnant pigs. In order to stop the mistreatment of the pigs the price of bacon would raise which can go both ways the people would do not want animal abuse get there way but then the rich will get more money out of the poor people.  All of the big operations would be able to make the changes but all of the small farmers would be put out of the industry with this it would create more job losses and put poor people in a greater percentage. The worldwide hunger will get even higher than what they are right now which will cause more deaths in the nations.  They want the farmers to abandon methods of the production of the affordable food supplies.

I feel that the way people treat animals is something that can be important, it can help show your reasons for being an animal lover.  I picked this article because it was something that I felt would be easy to write about because it has a meaning that I can care about. As an animal lover myself I care about how animals are treated even if they will one day just be killed for our pressure to eat that type of meat. I would still like to be knew that they were treated well when they are alive.  When animals or anything is alive it is a sin to harm that animal.
