Political issue

Employment

The political issue I am going to be talking about this year is employment and unemployment, that people unfortunately has gone through desperation.

The article I have read is in the Huffington post, and it talks about how this year the employment rate for young adults has been the lowest in sixty years, study says.

Because the economy has been going down in this years, young people struggle finding jobs, eventhough they are well educated,and recently graduated from their colleges, it has not been easy for most of them, and when they do get a job, at the end get paid off less that they should get, but out of desperation, they settle with the first job they can get, after months or even years of searching for one. The population has been growing more with time, that can also be a factor.

The author stablishes credibility(ethos) by showing, where he got the information from in the beggining: J"ust 54 percent of Americans ages 18 to 24 currently have jobs, according to a study released Thursday by the Pew Research Center. " also shows examples from  interviews he had made to others, and by putting a the economic policy institute as a resource. After showing this information it makes you want to read more. For pathos he is not really persuasing anyone, but yourself that everyone is on the look for jobs, so it is going to  be more difficult, so I guess is making you want to look somewhere else than a big city. and ethos by making you want to feel sad because of them, and want to make them look around or maybe inspire them to get a different education, because the economy has been going down that most people are unemployed.

discourse communities

Discourse communities

My discourse community is called Rotex, is for young people fro 15 to any age, that has been on an exchange all over the world with the Rotary International program, the members at this point are from 16 years to 21 of age, both female and masculine, we are all students at this time our goal is to we help exchange students\foreigners who have just arrived in Mexico, to help them go through their culture shock and help them get settled, because we have been through the same experiences, so we know what it takes, or how someone feels being in a completely different country; you become a member by having gone on an exchange, and have a complete attendance on the different meetings we have over the year. Our communication is via phone, email or via social networks such as facebook, we actually have a group and thats where the president or anyone can post about their ideas, or coming activities.We write about new ideas, about our experiences and then share them with everyone else, this topics are important to the community, because when someone goes somewhere, when you do not know anyone, and everything it is just different, and we are people who speak other languages, and will help them go through it all, it is important to our community, because no one else could help that foreigner that us, that we have been thtough the same and know the language, and some other stuff. we talk spanish and english, but since a lot of our members have gone to Brazil, we speak spanish and portuguese, it is important that we speak other languages because it helps up to our future and opens doors to other opportunities in life, not everyone is a trilingual person. an important thing that has happened to all of us ex-exchange students is that one friend who went to Taiwan decided to open a mini school for languages, and you would get paid for teaching that language, so it opens opportunities not only for the future, but also for those people who want to learn the language and doesnt have the opportunity to go for a year to another country, where everything is different than your comfort zone, it takes a lot of courage to do that. Adapting to a community is not so easy, but our community of Rotex is easy to adapt, because as I have mentioned before, we have been in another country all by ourserlves, so we had to become independent, and learn how to make new friends, so it has been easy to adapt, with the topic we had been talking in class in the 2012 elections, I believe that in the elections it takes leadership, and as young people we are learning how to take the lead, and help others. this organization has made an impact on exchange students, eventhough this is our first year in the organization, the effect on those foreginers has been greater than we expected,  now we are getting more people,for them  to start thinking of others by giving them the support they need;On the other hand in their exchange  the foreigners get to stay in different houses, so if they are having trouble with their families they can come to us and we can give them advices. It takes a big heart to give some of your free time to help those who need it,therefore we inspire, and get inspired, so associating this with the political issues that are happening in our country are countless, it will help me, to get more information, and learn from otheres.

My Writing Process

I am gonna tell you a narrative story about how I think about myself as a writer.
I would describe myself as a good writer, with lack of experience towards writing or organizing in a proper maner my writings.When I start to write something, I just start to write what comes up to my mind, because I do not know why, I get confused sometimes when I star brainstorming or outlining, I just get desperate, I am a weird person, who has to be doing something all the time, I am not a calm person; I do not have any preferences as where I prefer to write, but lonely places are way better, or listening to classical music, makes me feel inspired most of the time, If I am going to write something long I need to start writing it way before, because if I am in a rush, I do not even like re reading what I write I just turn it in, what I like the most, is when teachers tell me what I have wrong, I guess I trust them more than me and then when they tell me what to do, I try to do it better, and they have more experience, but I guess I will start to write and then re read everything and try to make it sort of professional for my future.
I like writing one or two days before, so I can make up my mind and then go back to what I forgot to write or what does not makes sense, sometimes I do not go through my writings because im afraid, ill get everything wrong and then will have to start all over again, and now im confusing you, and myself, well overall I guess I just need someone to give me a little push, on my writings.
