In this instance, I followed the journey of my favorite coffee cup. Very interesting subject and the cup stood the test of time.

Freestyle assignment 4

Unfortunately, I did not have time to hand in this assignment. 

In this project, I read the story The Way Up to Heaven. It was a surprisingly good story and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked the way it was written and how it shifted vibes from being innocent to a shockingly dark story. After that, I did an assignment about the story on Vocabulary.com

Freestyle assignment 1

In this Freestyle assignment, I used lyrics to a song that I listen to quite frequently. The song's name is Old Man´s Boots, by Brothers Osborne.

In this Freestyle assignment, I decided to do something unusual for me. I wrote down some text and then put it in a video of me playing the guitar, that I recently started playing. 

Current Affairs

In this project I discussed, the reasons why Lebron James is the greatest basketball player ever, and the unfair criticism that this man has to stand under. This was a good project to sharpen my writing skills.

Some words used in this drill. ------------------------------------------ Imperceptibly - In a manner that is difficult to discern. Stasis - Inactivity resulting from a balance between opposing forces. Progenitor - An ancestor in the direct line. Facade - The front of a building.

I only did the vocabulary.com part of this assignment.

Learning Styles

Another useful project for my vocabulary, I enjoy these assignments and I feel that they are the best bang for my buck, learning tool. I have noticed many of the words that we go over in these assignments, pop up all around me. Some words used in this drill. ------------------------------------------ Auditory - Adj. of or relating to the process of hearing. Tinker - Do random, unplanned work or activities. Directory - An alphabetical list of names and contact information. Analytic - Adj. Using or skilled in using analysis.

In this first Show and Tell assignment, I decided to talk about my dog. I went over typical things about owning a dog, the positive and negative attributes. This went quite well and I am happy about the project. 

Logbook entry (About this semester) 03.23.23

In this semester i feel my vocabulary has improved, vocabulary.com structured exercises really suit my learning ability well. I have always responded well to that sort of training in language learning. Vocabulary.com and Duolingo are quite similar in the way they train for language learning. My goal is always the same, to build a wider base for my english knowledge and then to use it in real&nbsp; life. I feel like that is my measurement for success in any language. My performance could definitely be better, alot of stuff and distractions happen in life when you are older, and though that is not an excuse, i feel like i could do a better job of managing that, so i can focus more on school. With that being said, i feel that my communication in english&nbsp; is stronger in daily life and i am happy with that.
