writing doc.3

writing doc. 3 began as opportunity to inform, but has developed into something therapeutic for me. I now have the opportunity to express a personal struggle, an opportunity to watch my thoughts manifest into organized written word. I will describe my own experience as a combat veteran and college. I begin everyday as many do, I have the common inability to wake up and quickly become motivated. I may differ a little because every morning I wake up in chronic pain, labored breathing and sadly the largest hindrance is a damaged mind. I am filled with doubt of self and existence. I know how lucky I am because what I'm suffering from is less severe than so many unfortunate others. On an average I get 3 hours of sleep, it is not uncommon for me to remain awake for days. I start to contemplate on why, why do I bother trying, why do I want to even go on, my first waking thoughts are ones of regret, things I should have done, things I should have not done, regret of what I use to be and what I have become. I go through these motions and realize I'm living not only for myself but for my beautiful wife next to me. This woman who has sacrificed so much to be with me, an angel who has stuck by me through all the disfunction that I have caused and subjected her to. Through all the illnesses, all the stresses that a military spouse deals with, she continues to endure, love and support me. I kiss my wife on the forehead every morning before leaving the bed. A strong motivational factor in my life is I also have a strong desire to help treat veterans, and the only way i can accomplish that is through college. When I'm attend classes I regularly feel out of place, socially awkward and uncomfortable. I have this undeserved sense of superiority, entitlement and can also be severely judgmental. I know I have these feeling because of my time in service, I think of what I have done, what I have survived, what I have accomplished, all that I have witnessed for this country that can at times feel ungrateful. I often feel anger of how lost this generation is, how rude and undisciplined so many of my fellow students are. I know my perception of the world around me is not always warranted or accurate and needs to be changed. I find it difficult to retain information learned, I struggle with staying focused, and I deal with chronic health issues and pain. My headaches restrict my ability to concentrate, and the pill buffet that I'm required to consume, can often cause my thoughts to be clouded. I have learned how to overcome these minor ailments that I face and consciously make an effort to get better and be better, so that i can be a successful student.

Doc 3

I wrote. 3 about combat veteran and the college experience. This is a topic of interest for me and something that I am somewhat familiar with. It is somewhat difficult are veterans to adjust to the college life there are many factors and make the transition difficult social awkwardness for the most part a lot of veterans are a bit older than the average college student so this causes anxiety also combat veteran often bring home physical and mental issue that may interfere with the learning. Universities are beginning to be able to accommodate to the  needs of Veterans.

wife

i was thinking of how blessed i am to have such great people who surround me. I would feel completely lost in this world without my wife, she has so much patients, she is so caring, and she is my best friend. My wife waited for me while i was deployed when i returned home many of friends where not as lucky. I just feel so blessed to be married to my wife Sae rom and i look forward to the future with her. 

Doc 3

I look forward to write document 3 because I'm able to choose a topic of interest. I have not been able to come up with a topic yet, I'm still debating on some areas that I hold interest in. I will either write about the infantry or probably the infantry because that is the largest influential factor in my life.

Apa

Using A PA allows the writer to show the credible sources for a particular subject and allows the reader to know where to further research an area of interest.  There has to be way a defined structure method of producing evidence of credible research and apa is the tool that allows writer and reader to learn about a specific subject. 

Doc.2

Doc. 2 is somewhat of a difficult subject for me to write about, because i don't really agree with it, and or have any interest in the subject, i find the subject very dry. The purpose for writing this body of work is for one to meet class requirements, then it is to describe, explain what a flipped classroom is.
