discourse community

discourse communities affect many people because it affects how u grow up and how your life takes its course. i think one of the discourse communities i belong to growing up was the football team we had a common goal inn which we wanted to achieve this was winning, most importantly winning the championship. even though we never won it, we maintained our brotherhood. this was the most important thing in which i encountered as well. another discourse community i belong is being a college student. every college student wants to graduate and be successful and that's the common goal in which we all college students share. i believe the thing that seperates college students apart from each other is the amount of will power some choose to put into their work, just like in life in general. discourse communities are every where, just like at my grocery store job. it was a small community but we all had a job to do and it had to get done by every body cooperating and getting it done together. being in this discourse community also like football taught me the value and essence of teamwork , working together. all my life I've valued teamwork because i learned that there is no I in team. one other discourse community i belong to was my neighborhood. Quite frankly everybody in my neighborhood is family. yet even though we felt as if we were family, alot of people don't make it out, they tend to get stuck because they choose not to do anything with there life. or seems like most people don't want more they just stay in the hood.

portrait of a researcher blog

 I like to research because it helps me understand a lot about a lot of things. research helps me with research papers a lot of different ways because i can learn about things that will make my paper pop in a sense. research allows me to also stay motivated throughout writing my paper. Sometimes when i write a paper i tend to run out of new ideas but through research i stay motivated because i find out things such as fun facts. the facts in which I put in my paper make my paper a better paper because without the facts my paper would probaly be a lot more boring. I didn't like writing papers when I was younger because I felt that writing papers were boring and it didn't help me as a writer because I felt that I already knew how to write .this was one of the worst mistakes of my life because I realized later on in life that you are never good enough for anything. I realized in the 12 th grade, well towards the end of my senior year that writing is going to require a lot of research beacuse in order to get a good grade on a paper u must know what you are talking about. Thats common sense. I believe every since I have completed English 1101 I am better equipped to write a research paper because I learned how to write a paper and research more effectively. I now know what to reasearch and how to research it in order to get the best results. Towards tye end of the semester i am looking forward to looking doing my end of the year research paper because i know that it will challenge ke but i love a challenge. I dont like to feel that things are just going to be handed to me. I feel like i am in deed going to b challenged in this course. I believe researching should continue to be a main topic in every writing composition class because it is essential to writing a great paper and getting the most out of the facts that you have gained through the researching process. I love writing so therefore i dont have a problem with the researching part. I love the fact that you can make a paper better by looking at information thats gonna turn out to take you towards more information.
