First 2 weeks in college

Having just finished my second week in school, I've gotten the hang of my routine. Now that i know what my day-to-day schedule is like, i can say with confidence that I'm disappointed with college. I've always been told how much free time and freedom in general college would bring to me. however, this is not the case for me. I've found that while i have more free time, I also have far more work and studying that i have to do if I am to succeed in the DAP program. On top of it all I have to work far more to help pay for my college expenses. So while it is true that college does give you so much more free time, it is also a lie. This is because college gives you the freedom of choice. You can choose to not go to class, to not do your work, but for the people who do go to class, who do do their homework, they're just as busy, if not more, than they were in high school. So I can summarize my feeling for college with this, its just more of the same.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb24RrHIbFk this is a pretty popular song going around recently. While i normally dislike rap/ whatever kind of music this is, i found the lyrics and the video to be very deep. the song is about the feeling we all get of wanting to kill ourselves and hating existing, but then the lyrics take a turn to the prospective of a suicide hot line worker. the lyrics then go on to say how you should be alive, and the next verse turns into the suicidal guy saying he wants to be alive. what i found particularly interesting about this song is the way it was able to reach people through music that normal advice and talking could not. what i mean by this is that while everyone always says don't kill your self, it clearly doesn't work. however after this songs release, calls to the suicide hot line went up significantly. is this just because people now know the number to the hot line, as the title of the song is that number, or because the song was able to con...

Let me start off by saying how much i despised writing before this class. My past teachers always taught me to write using a super specific formula and it left me feeling like i didn't have a voice in my writing. In this class, i feel like i started to "find my voice" in my writing. I think this came about from learning about rhetoricity. i remember when we first were introduced to the concept of rhetoricity we watched a weird video and soul stared. i vividly remember thinking to myself "what the hell is going on". but eventually i think i got what it was. to me, rhetoricity was about how we communicate, that everything we do from body language, words, even just presents, sends a message. I think my best example of how i understood this is in my rhetoricity paper i wrote, which is linked here  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DBqKEzTFQKOV0DO7mkjgTVDm_XaYwYsZSaBZUlW-_K4/edit . Another good example that show my comprehension of rhetorical knowledge would prob...
