Reflections On Selfies with a Social Conscience: 

Doing this exercise helps people to understand my taste and preferences. The concept of inquiry is about asking questions and being curious about different topics. When looking at what I eat you can tell that I love eating meat and hanging out with my friends. I'm representing myself as a very social person with a picky taste. I feel like over the past couple days I have felt rushed with most of my meals due to classes and they haven't been as balanced as I would have liked. I love going out with friends and getting a bite to eat. In the future I hope to have more variety of vegetables and not so many grains/processed food. Another example of representing myself in the social eye that I could have focused on are the types of clothes I wear on a daily basis. Usually I prioritize comfort over style due to the intense schedule I have. I usually wear sweatpants and a hoodie. Most people wouldn't pay any mind to my clothes as most people wear similar things in America. I would be perceived in the public eye as the norm. This creates social change because it promotes the idea of prioritizing what makes you feel more comfortable rather than conforming to the American Beauty standards. Overall, I feel like everyday choices are a statement to the public about what kind of a person you are. Sometimes these are unfair stereotypes and other times it's based on how you present yourself on public platforms through the things you say and people you surround yourself with.

Unit 1 Draft

Source Analysis #1: "A Pencil Shop, for Texting the Old Fashioned Way" by Molly Young, Published by The New York Times The author decided to take on this project to represent the metaphor of every writer having their own specialized style. This is represented through the pencil shop as each person who comes in has their own specialized pencil representing themselves as a writer. The genre is a narrative style article, as the author is telling a story about this shop that only sells pencils to convey a deeper meaning. This source fits into the larger conversation of my topic of inquiry through searching for the underlying meaning rather than taking it at face value. Although the author sounds as if they are just talking about a pencil shop, it is important to ask questions about why and what the writing devices they use represent. I think it did a good job getting across its message through different literary devices such as similes and metaphors. The author uses informal dia...

Surveys/Polls/Quizzes

  "Fill Your Plate And We'll Tell You What Your Job Would Have Been In The Medieval Times" While taking this quiz I got a knight! I picked food such as potato wedges, edamame, chicken, corn on the cob, salmon, and a milkshake. I had some of my other friends take it and when they only chose the healthy options such as salads or not eating anything at all they got princess. I think this is quite a crazy way to categorize them through saying that you are more likely to be a princess if you eat less. My other friend picked the most unhealthy options like pop, chocolate cake, and fried food and they got leader! I guess this might correlate to being a wealthy leader and being able to afford a lot of unhealthy food. I also was able to look at some of the 62 comments. People were sharing their results, someone got jester and another person got a witch. Overall, I think there are only knight, leader, witch, and princess as options.  I think this quiz was fun to take and although i...
