ALL ABOUT ME
if you play a sport what type of sport do you play? how long have you been playing this sport?
i play basketball and i have been playing basketball since 4th grade on my school team, and then started with AAU around 7th.
what are you passionate about?
well in my free time, i like to try and get better at basketball, but besides that i like to faithfully stay on YouTube and watch beauty and hair videos to learn new ways to enhance my physical appearance.
what is the most ridiculous lie you ever told? why did you tell this lie?
i dont really tell ridiculous lies, but i guess the next to craziest one i told was when i pierced my cartilage after my mom told me not to for at least 3 years of my life, and she saw it because i forgot to cover it up and she asked what was in my ear, and i told her i bought a magnetic earring. and i told this lie to save my soul and body.
when you write, do you just sit at the computer and allow the words to flow or do you have an outline?
i usually have a rough outline, in my head, of where im going but i usually just allow the words to flow turn it into a paper and then adjust greatly after i receive my comments and make it better.
how would you describe your writing experience so far? what do you most want to learn from this course?
i would describe my writing experience as better besides all the essays i go through, and i want to learn how to make writing not a task but just something simple.
what was the name of the most recent book you've read from cover to cover
well i read the series of ellen hopkins books one after another so i cant remember the last one i read.
how often do you write on social media?
i dont post on ig, until like every several of weeks, i like to fav and retweet things on twitter and tweet maybe twice a day, and i post on sc every day.
what is most important for you to learn this semester?
how to better connect a text to my essay
what is your definition of a hero?
my definition of a hero is someone who is selfless and may put himself before somebody else in order to make sure that person is better, or someone that can help beyond the way that someone can help themselves.
when was the last time you failed at something> what did you learn from this experience?
well, to me, im currently failing at everything in life and im learning from this experience on how to do it better or how to become better but it will become better soon.
rate yourself as a writer, A B C D, why?
a D or very low C because i always need some type of further explanation for why i should add something or why it should be there and i just want to be able to understand it and never ask again.

Thank you for sharing your ideas Tunde!
ReplyDeleteI can see improvement with the way you answered the questions already. That's great! When you're trying to develop your ideas more, after you've written your essay, go back and re-read it. Look at every sentence carefully and then at the conclusion of each sentence ask yourself, "Why?" or "How?" The answers become sentences to help you develop.
Lying about getting your cartilage pierced? That was funny. Does you mother still not know?
I look forward to working with you again.
Warm regards,
