Framing Class
Reality showes have certainly changed the way our society sees things. Look at the most recent, The Bachelor. 25 women are placed in a situation where they get a chance to date a hunk. However, these dates are not realistic. When have you ever been on a date where you get to fly to Hawaii, served a fabulous romantic dinner in a famous restaurant with you being the only guest. This show as received so much media and publicity. This show gives young girls the wrong impression of dating in the real life. There are many reality showes that give the wrong impression to young viewers. Not everyone has unlimited funds, in fact I don't know anyone who has the funds to take a significant other on a dream date. Few people rarely get their dream wedding or honeymoon. This is unrealistic and gives many the wrong impression of life.

Wow- It has been so many years since I have been a waitress I have forgotten just how glamorous its not. There a few jobs that there is a boss who will take care of you yet alone even care about you. I am really glad that I had a chance to read this essay. I was beginning to think that I should put school on hold for a while. I do believe that my mind is changed. I may just take a few less credits and not be in such a hurry to finish my degree.
The details in this essay are so true. Many of us have had that what am I doing here moments at work. If I can just get through this week.
There was a time in my life when I new little about what was going on in the outside world. I had just gotten married, my husband worked out of town, I had nothing else to do to occupy my time so I worked three jobs. In the morning I went to the elementary school to teach reading recovery program. When my shift was over at the school I went to the mall where I worked in a clothing store, from there I went to my night job as a waitress in a Mexican restaurant. There was no free time. I simply mad sure that I had every other weekend off for when my husband would come home.I am so glad that I don't live that life anymore.

USING ADVERBS
*Adverbs modify verbs. They tell you how something is done.
Example: How does she sing? - She sings beautifully
Rule: adverbs are often formed by adding-ly to an objective
Example: beautiful - beautifully, careful - carefully
BE CAREFUL!
*some adverbs don't change in the adverb form
Example: fast, hard
*good is probably the most important exception. the adverb form of 'good' is 'well'
unfortunately, this is a common mistake
for instance you would not say- He plays tennis good
Example: How does she sing? - She sings beautifully
