Opinion On Restaraunt Review

The entire style is completely different from what Im accustomed to. There is no grabber statement, the review just gets to the point. I also noticed that the reviewer talked about Arrgentinian food before he wrote his review. The review seemed to have an upbeat tone throughout. All of the paragraphs were not really parqgraphs, and he discusses the downfall during the end of the review.

Final Draft Plans

Hopefully, I can get in contact with my former teacher so that I can ask her the extra questions that I'm missing. I also have to put a little more details into a few of my paragraphs. I plan to expand and possibly change my introduction to fit my essay perfectly. Additionally, drama is so important to her, and that's where I need to add more detail explaining why drama is important to her, and important to her students success. If I do so, I believe I will have a very good paper.

I Just Wanna Be Average

What's really the point in this essay. The entire piece of writing is just a bunch of memories that I really did not care about. This is by far the most boring article that I've read in this class. I really didn't get any connection with the title, because it sort of misleading. It felt like he was an average person, so why would he want to be average, if he already is. I'm a little confused by this essay, and hopefully the class and professor Degenaro can shed some light.

Peer Review # 2

Once again the peer reviewing process has helped. I don't think it helped more than last time because I know that I put more of my time into this paper, so there's not too much that I need to fix (at least I don't think so). I'm interested to see Professor Degenaro's comments because ultimately, his comments are more important. This paper was way more fun to write because the point is to try to get to know a person more than you already do. I'm glad that my peers in my class actually does take their time and read through each paper, to give the writer a solid response. Before I had this class, I could never say that.

My Academy Awards picks

Every year I give my opinion on who should go home with Oscar gold. Here are my picks for the important categories.

If I had my way, "The Departed" will win the award for best picture of the year. This is Martin Scorsece's best movie since "Goodfellas". The best movie of this year in my opinion, didn't get nominated. Mel Gibson's "Apocalypto" was fantastic. It's extremely violent, which is always good, and there's action throughout the movie. Dreamgirls would be my pick if it were nominated, and Apocalypto wasn't. Neither was nominated for best picture, so I went to my third favorite movie, which was The Departed.
The best director would go to Martin Scorsece because he deserves it. He is considered by many as the best director in the world, but has never won a Oscar for best director. He should win. Forrest Whitaker better win the Oscar for best actor because his performance in 'The Last King of Scotland" was amazing.Helen Mirren is the front runner to win best actress, but I'm not so sure. Judi Dench's performance in "Notes on a Scandal" was so fun to watch, and I think she should win.

Mix CD Songs

I f I were to make a mix CD that represents my communtity, I would have Ludacris's "Runaway Love", because I'm sure alot of people have gone through what the songs emplies. Mary J. Blige's "No More Drama", because my neighborhood is all about drama, and sometimes I get sick of it. Christina Aguilera's "Hurt" because anybody from any neighborhood can relate to a death of a family member, or close friend. Busta Rhymes song "In the Ghetto" featuring Rick James because I reside in an urban neighborhood. E-40's "You and Dat Booty", because if I see a girl with a nice ass, I will try and pick up on her, and so will everybody in my neighborhood!! Rhianna's "Unfaithful" becaue so many girls and guys in my neigborhood cheats on their significant others. Last but not least, Rick Ross's "Hustlin", because so many people in my neighborhood have to hustle to make it through life.

The Grammy Awards

It's been a long time since I really enjoyed a Grammy award show, but this years show was different. I really didn't care who won for album of the year because I don't listen to any of the nominees music. I was happy for Mary J. Blige, and Ludacris, and they're performance was entertaining. Beyonce looked beautiful as always as she sang "Listen". The performance of the night was by Christina Aguilera. I don't listen to her music, but her performance had me in awe. This was one of the best Grammy award performance I have ever seen. James Brown would be so proud, as Christina stole the show, and proved that she is the best female singer in the business. I'm not the only person who thinks so. Check out this article!
