What has surprised me the most was how quick these five weeks passed by. I thought it was going to feel like an century. I have handled challenges by getting someone to help me when i know i didn't understand.I really didn't stress about anything during these five weeks. But the doing my laundry i really had to get used to it.

My Feelings
Today I feel exhausted and dull. I want to go back to the Residence halls and sleep a little longer. My eyes feel like they are going to shut any minute now. But I am keeping myself awake. I did go to bed a little early last night. I just don’t know why I’m feeling so drowsy. In some weeks I feel excited when Wednesday get here because that means we have only one more day of class , and I can sleep in on Friday’s. Right now my heads hurt very badly because I need to rest. But in the end I can manage all of my feelings today. I just have to take it one moment at a time. It is just another day for me once I get myself up and ready to move. Mornings aren’t for me. I do wake up early but if I had a choice I would rather wake up later on in the day.

Creative Non-fiction
Creative Non- fiction is when is a genre of writing that uses literary styles and techniques to create factually accurate narratives. The primary goal of Creative Non-fiction is to communicate information, but to shape it in a way that reads like fiction. I plan to fit this in my story by telling some things that happens in the world today. Many people have similar situations but they are handled or done a certain way. My plan is to focus on one crime and elaborate on it. Change how the detectives handled the situation or how the judge ruled the verdict. As you can see I am writing about real world cases that have to do with criminology.

End of week 4
Since i have been in this class i have learned a lot about essays and the style of writing. Since the first day of class i was so afraid to write an 6 to 8 page paper. I mean i have never gone over 5 pages. As i begin to write and understand the concept a little better it became clearer to me. It was like the words from flowing from my mind to my head, to my fingers. I began to fill up a page in less than thirty minutes. That was a big accomplishment for me because usually it talks me about that amount of time to write one paragraph. there are many techniques that have helped me along the way. the first one i would like to address is intricate details. before this technique my papers were plain and simple. Know that i am elaborating on the scenes and the characters is seems more realistic. I could actually picture myself being there.
Another technique i would like to mention is adding sounds and different things to my essays. Making the reader hear and see what i am talking about. Grasping these different things has helped my paper tremendously. Now that i have applied this to my work my paper three will be magnificent. It is going to feel like I'm the characters in the essay. I feel excited to write now. My mind is racing with differed vivid details to put into my paper. My heart is pondering because i cant get what i want to say typed quick enough before i come up with another idea. I now have an passion for writing. due to the different techniques I've learned. As you can see i have really grown from where i was on the first day of class to a soon to be great writer. I have to work on some more things to make it better, but it will get there in due time.

Forms of Art
To me art means something that is colorful, full of life, and enjoying. Any shape, form, or fashion could be called art. Many people paint, sing, make things, dance, write, read, and so own. Everyone can call what they do a form of art work. My art is dancing. I love the creativity that me and my cousins put forth to make a praise dance. But you can't just throw something together and thinks it's going to be perfect. Back home we have a trainer who trains our body to perform the moves we do. We have to sit there and imagine the dances and see how it would look before we add it to the routine. Dancing may not be considered as an art to most. but it is art. The same way you all came up with the ideas of what to draw and how to paint a picture is just the same as dancing. It all takes time and consideration.
Another type of art that i like doing is signing. Which i mentioned before.Singing is just like dancing only you are using your vocal cords instead of body movements. Just like going to dance rehearsal we have to go to choir rehearsal. Their our voices are trained and tuned to sing the notes we have to for each song. It takes more time to make sure a song sounds right then it takes to perfect a dance. As you can see i love these two forms of art. I am sure yours are like mine in many ways only they are created different.

The Watcher at the Gates
My watcher is very angry, mean and direct. If something is strongly on my mind and i begin to do it she appears up from no where. She lives in a tiny pin house control room inside my head. The pin house is blue, and red. With an black roof to signify darkness. Every time I began to write she takes me their so that i would change ,my mind. She is 5 feet tall with long black hair. Her eyes are brown and she has long rough long nails that breaks all the time. She eats sushi that is uncooked and raw. It gives me and headache every time I can sense she's about to eat.
