Self regulation- In self regulation i think i deserve 29% i always listen in class and have little distractions. I have done 20 out of the 22 assignments and im going to continue and work on them. Most of my assignments have been late but i try my best to do it on time. My attendance is really good ive only missed one class and i have never been late. I am ussually on task but sometimes i get carried away and chat.
Quality of Communication Skills- I think i deserve a 25% in communication skills. I am not so good with literary devices i have some struggles with them and sometimes mixing them up. My formal writing is good and my informal writing needs improvement. I am very good at making personal connections because im a very open minded person and i try to think outside the box and im good with other connections other than to myself. My grammer is not the best because english is my third language and i usually have some spelling mistakes every here and there.
Contribution to the Learning Environment- I think i deserve 28%. I have never went back to fix my mistakes when a classmate or teacher tells me i have done something wrong and should fix it. I have commented on everyones blog at least once or twice and they were all good feed back not just a simple good job. I talk alot with my group and we sometimes discuss the stuff in class and help each other out with electronics or if one of us doesnt get what the assignments about we try to help them out. In class i always listen i sometimes get distracted but i still try to listen as much as possible. I always bring posistive energy to class and try to make everyone laugh or get them as confused as possible. So far i think this has been the best english class ive had and it has been a very neat experiance because were using our devices instead of paper and books. At first it was confusing but after a while i got used to it and now know more about technoligy.

Pressure Essay
"We tend to sabotage the very things we care most about."
Many people would agree with this because everyone has had this experiance before like when you buy a new pair of shoes the first few days you take care of them but after you start playing sports with them and run in the mud with them. Same thing goes for women some guys in certain countries kill their wifes or run away after they are bored of them and find new wifes. Some people decide that their lifes arent worth the trouble and let go of the stuff they love the most or has the most value cause they need the money.
At the same time i also disagree with the quote because many people go under so much stress and pressure but it does not affect their mood or their daily life routines. Pressure and stress are all stuff that can be controled. One example is from the curious incedent of the dog at night. The main character chris went into his own little world when ever his parents would fight or argue and he completly zoned out wich many people would do when in that situation.
On the discovery channel I was watching a documentary on apes and their was a battle going on between two different species of apes. While their were battling one of the baby apes was getting beat up by this other ape and the mother came and stepped in and got killed and her child was safe but still injured. Unfortunately most humans wouldn't react like that. Most humans would think of there own welfare before even thinking of others. This isn't because humans are evil and do not think of other's, this is because our brains think in a different way.
We sabotage the things we care about the most because most of the time, we don't even know it is there. For example we say we hate our parents, yet truthfully they care for us and tend most of our needs. We have all something we sabotaged and most of us are afraid to tell others. This is a main reason the situation never gets better and family and friends grow further apart.
