A Monologue For A Mirror In Regards To My Present Productivity
Mirror, mirror
on the wall
why must I go
and wreck it all?
Such prosperity awaits!
A future pristine!
Tarnished and ruined
by my internal fiend.
This habit confines
all possible splendor.
Each acceptance shall be
returned to its sender.
Mirror, mirror
on the wall
Please tell diligence
to give me a call.
Great Night

Marshall's Q3 Globalization BM
The countries I used were Rwanda and Iran, two countries that have been in and out of wars for the last few decades. For each of the five points of collapse, I would research what the status of the issue had been for the last 40-80 years. If the problem was only getting worse, I would give it lower than a five, if it was steadily increasing, I would give it more than a five. How much more/less than a five I'd give the issue was dependent on the severity of the problem within the country. The only part of the five point framework which was difficult to analyze was the society's response to environmental damage. Friendly trade partners tied in with hostile neighbors, and environmental damage tied in with climate change. The societies response was always difficult to find because there are so many different opinions on the matter. If I could change one thing about my project, I'd make it more creative or visually appealing. I'm satisfied with the information I got, but visual appeal has never been a strong suit.

SICK & MOVIES
When I got home, I fell right asleep. Around 6am, I awoke with a terrible migraine and a bad sore throat. I was also congested and coughing up a storm.
Around 10am, I ran downstairs to look for cold medicine. To my dismay, we were out of it. Now I am debating whether to get dressed and travel all the way down to South Philly to see my boyfriend and go to the movies. Even though I am as sick as a dog, I am probably going to go anyway because I really miss Eric and I want to see that new movie "Insidious" pretty badly.
Ughhhh.
What The Hell?
Tricked
i cant wait until i get out this damn academy
this " leadership"
this "school" .
gosh..
AH!


Those Fast-Talkin' Lasses Inspire
Purchased the collected poems of Dorothy Parker.
Searched craigslist for high speed wit.
Found none for sale.
Looks as though I must resort to theft.
Oh please let my next three posts redeem me for this one.

My Role Model
Like all siblings, my sister and I never
got along well when we were growing up. We were always at each other’s throat
arguing and fighting every little chance we had. Someone watching from the
sideline that did not know us might have had the impression that we truly
loathed each other. But behind all our fighting and bickering we still secretly
loved each other. Nowadays, kids
and young adults my age look up to celebrities as their role models. I on the
other hand look up to my older sister as my role model because she influenced
me to be the best that I can possibly be. She inspired me to never give
up and tells me that nothing is impossible once you try. "excerpt from my college essay"
Reflection
- Briefly summarize the countries
that you selected.
The two countries I did my third quarter benchmark on
were Brazil and Haiti. I choose these to countries because they are both
interesting. I choose Haiti because I was curious to whether Haiti was always corrupt
or was it due to current disaster. While researching I realized that Haiti has
been in the same for a long time. After being oppressed by their oppressor for
over 20 years they don’t same to be going forward but rather they seems to be
going backward year after year. Brazil was also oppressed but managed to
overcome their oppressor after gaining their independence.
- Give an overview of your
process
My process on my benchmark was pretty much
successful, the problem I faced was the way in which I was to present my
project. I had a lot of things in mind that I wanted to do but none really work
when I try putting the finishing touch together. But in the end I decided to
present my project using info graphics.
- Reflect upon the 5point
framework. Was it straightforward, easy, difficult, perplexing, etc.
I found the five-point framework really helpful and
straightforward. It never occurred to me that using the five-point framework
let you see and view the world in a whole different light. After doing this project,
now every time I come across a country or a state I use the five-point
framework to evaluate things.
- If you could change one thing
about your product, what would it be and why?
If I could change one thing about my product it would
be my presentation because even though I’ve turn in my project I’m still not
excited about my overall visuals it could have been much better.
- Other thoughts, reflections,
feedback.
I really like this project because I was able to do
things the way in which I never r seen it before. The one thing I feel could be
change is the time frame. There were a lot of things going on but not enough
time to do the work. I hope you take my thoughts into consideration.
