Who revises anyway?

  I don't know about other people I never revised my work in high school unless the teacher made me. I did not want to waste my time. Plus the computer has spell check so why correct it myself. In HTWA there is a comic strip about how to revise your work. The comic is true. How many times do you sit at your computer with food trying to make your paper sound right? You sit there for hours and you can’t figure out what’s wrong. I like how they have the student going out and getting fresh air and doing something else. Although most of us aren’t going to go to a mountain but you get the point. The two readings kind of give you a check list or helpful hints to look back on when writing. The “checklist” will give students away to stay on topic. I already have the pages marked off.

     A twisted world by James Mc Morrow Jr. had an interesting take on politics. It was interesting to think about celebrities running the country. Our lives would be different if they were to run the country because yes they have played the role of a president or a Major in the Army. The issues we considered important would be thrown out the window. At the end of the reading Morrow wrote " the people we have put in office are those ones best suited there. As citizens we are bit too quick to judge how our political representative have done their jobs. We need to realize that in order to dig ourselves out of this massive hole we are in we need to be patient, no matter how difficult that may be in times of hardship."
    As citizens we think it is okay to judge what out politicians  are doing, but how do we know exactly what is going on. We voted and chose these people questioning them is questioning yourself.
