16. Process Essay

I have totally finished my essay.
Eng 101 is really big challenge for the last two weeks.
First presentation and then process essay.
But especially writing an academic essay was really different thing for me.
Because i always write in exaggerated and fancy way. In academic essay there is no place for these.
So i was very funny situation while rewriting. I was writing something and then erasing, writing and erasing.
On the other hand, learning new thing is hard. So i am happy. And i feel i am improving.

15.Our Presentation




I am so relaxed now. I was anxious during this week about our presentation. How will it be? How will Sonja say? How will audience's reflects be?

I want to highlight that few friends in class, was listening me so carefully. I am so pleased. I always look into the speaker's eyes while he/she describing something. But i didn't know it is giving that much satisfaction and courage to the speaker.

I was so nervous when i started to talk but then when i saw people are listening to me , nodding their heads, thinking about what i said, it gave me courage to continiue. So thank you very much.

I think our presentation was nice. We met 4 times and sent mail ourselves 40 times :) So i think it worth =)

But to be honest, i found myself little bit deficient. I don't know, i think ,i couldn't put my own comment so much on presentation. I will think more deeply about myself and will try to do more properly on final.

  • Elif's presentation was both enjoyable and profitable. It was profitable for understanding the story more deeply.
  • Bahar's presentation was really detailed and i learnt lots of different things about it.
  • Onur has got very interesting ideas about his titles.
So, i like my co workers ^^

On the other hand, i was hopeful about the theme of presentation. I found it from internet.

13. Tough Guys on Facebook



I observed something while i was looking my friends profile pictures in facebook. Well, this contains generalization but i am sure you will understand what i am trying to highlight.

In Boy's profile pictures , boys are usually not looking to camera and looking charismatic and some of them are looking very strict and tough.

And we are generally focusing to camera and smiling to look beatiful or always putting our smiling photos for collecting sympathy.

So what do you think about this?
