Week 4

Week 4
I must admit writing has never been my strongest areas. I have struggled with writing for many years. I feel that many mainstream Americans aren’t able to express themselves properly therefore they are not comfortable sharing it publicly. I wish that I could break out of my shell to have my ideas shared because I feel that many other people have similar ideas. I feel like it’s just a struggle of being accepted.  I feel that my writing these last four years of college has improved a great deal. This whole idea of a blog is wonderful but I must admit it was a hard pill to swallow when starting this class.
A topic I would like to discuss this week in my blog is the Democratic Convention. By chance was any one able to watch Michelle Obama speak?? When I say that our first lady is such a phenomenal woman that I truly admire. I was so impressed at Mrs. Obama! I loved how she was able to share from her own experience of what it is to suffer due to your economic status. I feel that her overall message was really powerful. She explained how republicans can never understand the struggle of lower and middle class people because they are born into wealth. So they couldn't understand what a high percentage of Americans are experiencing. I must say I love the idea of being informed about what’s going on in the country!

  1. Well it's okay if it's not your thing, the only place to go is up and you're doing that! (or getting even more awesome in this case). I agree with a lot of your points, I think many are uncomfortable sharing their works because they are afraid of judgement if they do not know how to properly express themselves. I was not able to watch it but I am intrigued so now I am going to youtube it!
