AUTHOR IN PROGRESS 

I feel that one thing I did good & feel confident with my writing was how I expressed myself. I was able to easily put thoughts from my head onto the paper. Something that I can improve on is being able to get good ideas under pressure with time, I would hav to practice more on timed writings. Over all thought I felt very good about my writings reading over them once I was finished :)

 When it comes to the elections of this year many people can anticipate these two candidates to surely accuse each other from doings of the past. Each canadate tries to remain stolid but Hilary definitely outbeats trump. It's aggravating because trump and Hilary are constantly sticking their proboscis into everyone's business and venomously attacking each other. With each debate America is left suspended to watch the next one just to see the two yell at each other. Both Candidates try to hypnotize the world into thinking their fit to be president trying to prove that they can transform this world into something greater, but they simply just illuminate each other's faults.

TODAY I'M A GOOD HUMAN

Being a good human being is really important to me because I hav mostly always been told that I'm a really nice person. To me being a good human being is helping out people even with just the smallest things. Something as little as opening a door for someone or giving up your seat for someone else that needs it more than you do makes a big difference. I remember one day at church it was really full that most people were standing but I was sitting, and I saw that a pregnant woman got there, so without hesitation I gave her my seat. I knew that she must have been tired so I didn't mind giving my seat away. Being a good human being, to me, only counts if you do good deeds with good intentions and expect nothing in return. I'm grateful that there are good humans in this world because if not, it would be a horrible place to live in, where nobody would ever smile at a stranger or do something nice for them just because.
