Oped process

The OpEd process was overall sucessful. I don't think I've ever enjoyed writing a paper before, which made this paper different. It was nice to rant about a topic that's been bothering me for quite some time. I think, in a way, it was like killing two birds with one stone; I got to rant and had a good topic for the assingment. The only thing I had a problem with was the page limit. For some reason I couldn't shorten my paper enough; I guess I just had too many suggestions.

Peer Reviews

My first thought about the peer review process was a little dull. I've went through peer reviews before, and they never really seemed to much fun. Those 45 minutes in high school passed by so slow, but today the time seemed to pass by rather quickly. After the reviews today, I think the reviewing process is very useful and fun.
After my partner and I exchanged papers, she gave me some suggestions about my paper. Her insight was very helpful, because although I gave my paper to another person to review, they didn't catch the same things she did.
Except for allowing the reviewers more time to give feedback and read over papers, I'm not sure how the peer reviews could have been better. We all had the chance to listen to each others papers, and give good and bad feedback to eachother.

In honor of my partner's Opinion Editorial:

Anything..

I'm not really sure what to write about, so I guess I'll write about whatever comes to mind first. Guess I'm writing about the weekend! Everyone ready for the weekend?! I know I am. Even though we've only been in school for four days this week, I feel like this week was draining. As a result, I know exactly what I'm going to do; I'm going to sleep in. Anyone have any exciting plans?

In honor of my goal, here's a site to entertain you all:

OpEd part 2

Alright guys, when I made my first post about the OpEd, I didn't think about who I was writing it to. Which means I didn't specifically make it out to BYU students, so I was thinking of a new topic if the others don't work out. The new topic I was thinking about was sanitary problems I see around campus. I'm not sure what to do now really, so if you guys have any suggestions, please let me know!

For this OpEd topic:

Audience: Faculty and students at BYU
Arguement: We should be more considerate to others, and practice better sanitary habits.
I hope to inform others of the risks they take when they're unsanitary, and steps they can take to be sanitary. Once again, I'm not sure if this is a good idea, so any input is appreciated!

OpEd

One of the choices for my opinion editorial I was thinking about is about a quote, which generally has to do with the way we treat others. I feel that the world is becoming more blind to others and their feelings, which causes more pain in the world.

Another topic I was thinking about is how we treat wild animals. We disreguard them, and sometimes ignore or even go out of our way to harm them. I want to make an impact on people that will at least give them the idea that treating animals harshly is against the law and is immoral.

The last topic I was thining about why every school should have a mixture of cultures. Every culture has something to share with the world. Each culture has certain foods, languages, and thoughts that are not always shared with other cultures. Because of this, we all have something to share. Each of us come from different cultures that can benefit others. It allows others to taste different creations, speak another language, and even see things in a different perspective. We all have something to offer to the world, the thing is, do we know it?

About me

Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to become a doctor. Both my parents are doctors, so I guess that influenced me a little. However, that's not the only thing that influenced me to make becoming a doctor a goal. I always wanted to help others ever since I was younger. My parents suggesting the medical field was only an eye opener to my life long dream.
