Since the beginning of this semester it has been a great experience for me. I have to say what made my experience well is because of the professor I have, Mr. Jason. Having Mr. Jason as my professor I have gained experience in how to write a better essay and improving with my vocabulary as well. I also gained more experience in where to place or use the punctuation marks in a paragraph or essay.

 I have done well in a few things this semester but I also believe I need improvement with a few things as well. Since Blog Series 1 (Entries 1-7) I believe I have done well in writing paragraphs as well as writing an essay. When I am writing my essays I could say I do include a good introduction, a body with examples and last but not least a conclusion re-summarizing of my thesis. I would say I need more improvement with how to properly start an introduction and how to improve summarizing the story better. I could write an introduction but I am constantly leaving something out. I tend to have problems with finding out what is the most important thing the author is trying to mention.

I believe for me to move ahead I need to know a few things. I mentioned in the above paragraph, to know how to summarize my stories better. If I do improve with my summary, I think I could achieve to move ahead with writing my essay. I need to maybe focus more in what they author is trying to say and in trying to use the details in the story to find out the main idea of the passage.

I would not choose to live in Cristoff’s world because we go through the same process daily. We have the same routine. Cristoff’s is the one that dictates what we do in our daily lives. In the movie Truman is the main person in creating his television show.  Cristoff is using Truman in keeping his show from running. In addition, the same daily routine was used every morning. Every morning Truman would leave his house and say to his neighbors “Good Morning, and if I don’t see you later have a Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good Night”. Secondly, he would pass by the news stand and always pick up newspaper and a female article to take with him and he would say it’s for his wife.

Cristoff’s world has created a world to make thing seen like a perfect world. The only difference is that everyone around you is watching you and they are lying to you just so you could have a good life and perfect world. Cristoff’s is trying to tell us that in our society we have too many problems going on. He is trying to eliminate all those problems in Truman’s world. If we think about it, Truman world has problems too because everything around him was fake. An example is when Truman best friend was sitting with him in the beach, he was talking to him but his best friend was being dictated on what to say to Truman through a micro-piece ear.

Cristoff’s world is not something anyone wants to live in. Like how I mentioned in the above paragraph everyone in your world is just lying to you and watching every move you take and do.
