Reading Response ch. 5

• I felt I have always been good at descriptions, using different words that mean the same thing. Using correct descriptions that i know and understand. Not just random words that mean the same thing, but words that i would use in real life. I like to have a quirky way of doing thing, like describing someone or something. I try to write like i would talk. I have had a couple people say that to me this semester alone.  I never really thought about expressing general nouns before like, walking or putting on a sweater. I would just say walk but now i will think a little bit more about the little words. I relearned what a metaphor and simile is. Completely forgot about it. 
• I think the most important point in writing is that first paragraph (introduction) and the first sentence in the following paragraphs. 
• I picked this picture because when i was traveling from the states to Afghanistan, somewhere in our travels i ran across this exact replica. i would take pictures of it and post them all over the office. I think this picture is quirky but cool. It was more of a motivational thing for my company.
