During my writing, I'm always looking forward for the feedback responses I get. Most of the time it's good and sometimes it's not bad but not what I'm looking for. But the feedback that I get that I'm not wanting is the best kind of feedback to get. This feedback is there to help make your paper stronger for the reader to read. That kind of feedback is always good because it will help you with your writing skills. You read the feedback from one paper and then on the next you don't want to make that same mistake.
The good feedback that you want to see is always good, too. This feedback is just positive reinforcement. You want to see this kind of feedback so you keep doing what your doing. When you write a paper you want this kind of feedback because for your revision and future papers to come, it will give you a foothold on what to keep doing for your papers.
Good feedback is always good, but not as important as the feedback you don't want to see.

Where Does the Time Go
Why is it always when you are having a great time, the time just seems to fly by? Well that's how my spring break and Christmas break seemed like. I will always be doing something over break trying to keep my mind of the stresses of school and as soon as the break begins, it ends.
I will be hanging out with my friends and the next minute, I'm looking back trying to remember how that moment is so far away now. Even when you think, time will never pass, the next thing you know your looking back asking, how did that go by so fast?
But when you are not having fun, time could never go any slower. Why is this? During Spring Break, there was one day where I did absolutely nothing and the day seemed forever. Or when I'm at a lame party, time does not go by fast enough where I can leave.
I think, time goes by so fast because you're not really paying too much attention to the clock. YOur mind is occupied by eventful things. But when you're not enjoying yourself, you are too focused on when it's going to get over and not on other things like your surroundings.
Unfortunately we can't stop time but just live it to the fullest.

Ben and Jerry's Go Political
Now who doesn't love the ice cream called Ben and Jerry's. Ben and Jerry's incorporated is here not only to deliver fresh delicious ice cream to people all over the world, but they have other ideas in mind to benefit the economy. Their success in the ice cream BIZ is this the beginning.
I was watching a documentary on the Bio channel and it was showing a documentary on Ben and Jerry's. The documentary showed their struggles for success and their glory of becoming one the most popular food companies in the world. But it also showed their political viewpoints on how our economy is doing. Their mission is to promote social and environmental progress.
To ensure the environmental success, all products are made from recycled material. And all products are made with energy efficient machines. Their mission is to cut down on green house emissions. In the year 2002, over 22,000 tons were taken out from the air due to Ben and Jerry's environmental mission. What caught my attention the most was Ben's presentation he made to high ranking politicians.
For his argument he used a poster board and Oreo cookies. Each OOreo cookie represented 10 billion Dollars. His argument was for better funding for the things that are most important to society, such as education and health care. He set up his prop, Health care Education Living Military etc. Ben placed 42 cookies on our military, Our government is spending 420 billion dollars on military and homeland security. He compared our spendings with our worthy advisory Russia, they are only spending 7 cookies on their military. He then goes on to place half of an Oreo on Education and only a couple on Health care and around 15 on living. He then goes on and explains that Why does the Military need so much funding and why does something so important as Educationa and Health care receive so little. He does an experiment by taking 1 cookie from the military and placing it with education. Ben then explains that with this extra funding, it will pull every school out of economic issues and give them proper educational skills within the next 12 years. He then takes several off of military and on to health care, and explains that this extra funding could be used to help save lives and not take them. His argument was very interesting and powerful. Reading it from this blog says very little about it.
Why does America spend extreme amounts on Military and so few amounts on the most important things like health care and education?
