entry #3

I made plans to go see Annabel sometime this week with my friends. Knowing that we would go I decided to take some time and study a little bit more because I knew I wouldn't have as much time as I regularly would. I had a Psychology paper that was due this thursday so I spent most of my study time researching and writing that. To understand and comprehend what I read I re-read and took Cornell notes to help me study and understand the subject a little bit more. It really help I was quite surprise. I was successful at aqomplishmenting all my goals. This coming up week I plan to study a bit more for Psychology also write a paper for english before tuesday. I plan to take time after work to accomplish my goals.

Prototypical
"But without a doubt the depiction that made the war the stuff of popular American culture was the weekly television series "Combat," which ran every week on primetime from 1962 to 1967, and starred the irrepressible Vic Morrow, whose image comes to mind whenever those of us in our sixties think of a prototypical World War II combat soldier."

My Life's Backpack

In Tim O'Briens's book, The Things They Carried he writes about what the soldiers in the Vietnam war put in their backpacks. Some of the things I carry in my life's backpack are Motivation, family and friends.

 I have Motivation in my backpack because I always want to do better than what I did before I always want to improve what I do in every aspect in life. 

I have my Family because without them I am nothing they are my moral background and backing. They believe in me and my dreams.

And last but not least I have my Friends in my backpack that I can tell anything too and have them at a moments notice when I need help. That are some things that I carry with me in my backpack.
