Modernist author project

So looking at everyone's comment on the blog and the conversation we had the other day the way everyone else is doing them with prezis and mind maps I don't really know how to do those things so the way I am probably going to end up doing it is with the format you have displayed for us and just add a little more to make it more interesting. Unless I am able to figure out a way to do it a different was really fast.

Vocab review remix

Edward has a chronic pain in his leg. The defect would be him not being able to walk right. It all happened during the phenomenon at the track meet, which he deeply remorses. He was running so savagely to the point of pulling a muscle. Running was so sentimental to him. All of his acquaintances were involved with track, it was more or less his morality. The doctors implication was to stay off his leg for a while. He was furious about it but kept his sanity.

Joe collage

Today in the presentation we learned how to find collages online that would be the exact collage we wanted. It had many different things like majors or if you wanted to commute or requirements. This didn't help me at all. The reason that it didn't help me is because I have plans on going into the Air Force. The Air Force offers free schooling there and being able to apply for the gi bill once I get out. The main thing that I see in my future would be me in the Air Force. Either as a mechanic or in the criminal investigation part of it.

Foreword reading

So tonight in the foreword reading I learned a lot about what this book is going to be covering and I am very excited to see what is going to happen. I feel like the future and warfare seems like a very interesting topic to read about. I'm looking forward to posting more about this story as we get into it.
