Why should we censor the our classic and contervesial book's like Mark Twain's "Huckleberry Finn" and J.D. Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye"? My answer to that - we shouldn't. These books are important to American culture and I consider them masterpieces. Alex Beam writes in his essay Why Stop with Mark Twain's 'Huckleberry Finn' that we should abandone all of the conterversial words and replace them with something more suitable.I think this is wrong and we need preserve the books just how they are.

Why Stop with Mark Twain's 'Huckleberry Finn'?

Secret to Happiness: Flexible, creative, high paying work.
After reading "America's Bizarre Secret to Happiness: More Work" by Daily Mail I realized what most of my peers and I want from a job. One of our biggest factors is flexibility and creativity. If the job is boring and requires no creativity it's very tough to stay positive and progress. I also believe that most young adults want a finacial stability at very young age, so they can do what they want to in their free time. Not that many people would want to be lawyers, doctors or pilots if it only paid minimum wage. There are many more factors that you can add but those 2 are what every young adult in their 20's hopes to get receive when he starts his or her career.
Dream Job
Let me tell you about my dream job. My dream job is to become an web marketing developer. There are few reasons that made me want this job and it's something that I'm actually working on in college to acomplish that dream. One of the percs of this job would be traveling to many different cities and maybe countries and working on different projects. One thing that I hate is to be stuck in some office doing exact the same thing every day. The other thing is money, and to me, money does equals a start to happiness. It's one of the most high paid jobs straight out of college. I think when I acomplish my dream - I would be working because I want to and I love what I'm doing, and not because I have to!
Reflection Post
This semester in my English 100 class as a requirement we had to create a blog. I was supposed to post on my blog different posts. Honestly, I did not like it not one bit. I am trying to be a very private person and when instructor told us that we have to share our thoughts and opinions I wasn’t too happy. But it was necessary to pass the course so I had no choice but to conform and start sharing with the world. I don’t know if I’m the only person in the class that feels this way, but it was very challenging for me to write about things and know that someone that I don’t know might see it. I tried googling some of the topics I wrote about – and there it was for the whole world to see it. I guess it is kind of cool to see that something that I wrote could be seen by anyone in the world, who has internet connection; but for me my privacy is way more important. After this class I don’t think I’m going to continue my blog – I might even delete it because I won’t need it anymore.
I guess my blogging carrer will soon come to an end.
