MeMeMe

One essay I did was actually not really an essay at all. I created a PowerPoint creative narrative so basically it was all about me and my life and my family and my favorite things. For a sample of this I will show you the many pictures that were in my power point.

One of my favorite places to go.
It is so breath taking and peaceful.

H1N1 Vacine

This essay I wrote about the H1N1 vacine, its ment to be an argument essay because I am arguing against all the news articles that tell you the vacine is harmless and to get yourself and your kids vacinated. The point to my essay is to get people to do there own resurch and not take anyones word for it when it comes to something as serious as this vacine. I revele the truth I found in my research, here is a sample from that essay.

While researching the H1N1 vaccine I learned about many of the ingredients that are in it. One is called Tween 80 (Polysorbate 80) which is a drug that causes infertility. Polysorbate 80’s purpose is to assist in the delivery of certain drugs across the blood-brain barrier. Should these drugs be passing through to our brains? What do you think that will do to our children’s immune systems? Also one of the main ingredients is thimerosal which is a form of mercury, which everyone knows can cause very serious health problems. In fact Immunologist Hugh Fudenburg stated that there is compelling evidence that people who get 5 consecutive flu shots in a 10 year period are 10 times more likely to get alzheimers because of the accumulation of aluminum and mercury. Squalene is another top ingredient, squalene has never been approved in the US as safe and can cause blindness, autoimmune disease, and low sperm count in males. No time to list them all but the only ingredient that does not have very harmful effects is egg protein, which even then a lot of people are allergic to eggs.

Literacy New Meaning

Illiterate, what do you think of when you hear this word? At first I thought of someone who does not know how to read and write, but looking at it deeper I questioned myself. Do Americans consider people of another language who cannot read or write English illiterate? If so why? If an American cannot read or write other languages does that make them illiterate? No, but why? Looking at it like this made me realize really no one is illiterate. I now see literacy as the ability to send and receive messages using any type of communication. In this case there are many different types of literacy. We gain literacy from the time we are born, constantly learning how to communicate to others from the things we see and hear. With all this then being my new understanding of literacy I start to think where am I literate and where am I not. I am literate in English I am not literate in other languages. I am literate in math if you would consider that a form but then I could go on forever about the things I understand and can about. I have also just recently become literate in the medical profession because I am in school for my radiology technologist’s degree so I have to take classes specifically to teach medical terminology. Without knowing how to understand a doctor’s orders you are illiterate to them. The amount of knowledge available is infinite. Literacy to me is important, the thing you need to know is some of it will just come to you naturally, and some of it you have to work for but it’s worth it.
