Journal 16: letter to my mother

Dear mom,
This is a letter for you that i have something to do adn really want to talk with you. At the beginning when you saw this letter. I have a little required that i want you read by yourself, expecially except my father. Because of if he read this letter, he was definitely say no! So i hope dear mom you read only.

For my decision, i really wanna have a tatoo, i know you will be very angry, but please have a calm mood to read before I explained. The first time I really like to have a tatoo when I looked prison break, I saw the actor have a whole tatoo in his body, I was attracted by the beautiful pattterns. It's look very handsome and amazing. After that, i really wanna have a tatoo, but actually not in all body, maybe just one parts in my back or arms. I knew you will very care about I wheather can receive or not, but i can tell, I can do that even it's really painful. On the other hand, you will worry my future such as career or my job. But actually I will do just a little tatoo in my back or somewhere very secluded. That's my boss wouldn't be see anymore. By the way, the tatoo also is the symbol for the real boy. When I played basketball in the playground and just wear a half sleeve, showing my tatoo to everybody, that looks real cool. That's really I want. Also I think most of girls like the who has tatoo, that showed the boy's indepandent and  inimitable, so you don't worry about your son cannot have a girlfriends.

For those reasons, I wanted you can agree with have a tatoo and don't worry about me. The only one things we need to think that how we faced to my dad. I put all my hopes to yours, mom. I trust you can pursude my dad. Anyways, even i got a tatoo, I will still a good guy, and love you forever ! By the way, if you agree with me, you can help me to choose a pattern!

Journal 15 Summarize/Paraphrase Practise

Jeffrey R.Young (2006, Jun12). Wikipedia founder discourages academic use of his creation.the chronicle of higher education.  Retrieved from: http://chronicle.com/article

The Wikipedia's founder said that teacher want to tell students the definition in Wikipedia is not always they wanted and sometimes that ideas can lead the students in a wrong way. the answer in Wikipedia always good and convenient to research, but the students need to separate which one is they needed and which one is not useful. Because of all the sources are getting together and students should compare and choose which one is good for them research.

During the interview, The Wikipedia's founder whose named Wale suggested that Wikipedia is used in many ways. Such as the reader read a history book and they confused something in the book. Then they can use Wikipedia to search what they want. It's pretty simple way to search, maybe only for a vocabulary or a name they want to know. By contrast, for the students, they study in history subject. When they did their homework, they not only to do research only for a word or a sentence, but only need to know the whole story for the book or history. That Wiki's information is not enough any more. The students need to work hard by themselves without Wiki.

In this article Ghani used the evidences to show the students and teachers wanted to defend Public Education. And the President Milton Gordon is willing to hear students out speaks volumes for Gordon’s passion for education. That’s an emotion which is claim to education. The mainly idea is talking about Public education; argue equitable access for all students to a full range of educational programs. The master plan for higher education, what is left behind is students who are willing to spend 60 hours sleeping on the floor to get a better education. Finally, they argue about in a public statement, it’s hard to get together between high quality university and lines of communication.
