A#12: LA County Library Resources (entered into comp. book)
Today we were assigned to purchase an LA County Library card. The reason why LA County Library is better is because they have an endless amount of quality research available. There are multiple locations of these particular libraries. Including Diamond Bar, West Covina, and Claremont. If you don't have a card, bring you parents if you are under 18 years of age. Make sure to sign up for a pin number and to give your email to receive updates on upcoming book deadlines and books on hold. If you already have a card, make sure you still remember your pin number and update your email address if your card has been idle for a while now. You should have your card by October 1st to receive an E. Your grade will lower one full grade for every week it is late. You have two weekends to deem a library card.
A#13: Government Quickwrite (entered into comp. book as well)
In our journals, we had to address the questions: What would it take to fight your own government? How would you fight?
This was a very heavy question. During a class discussion about what we had written, we all pretty much agreed that we would like to believe that we would perform this heroic act and fight against our government. Although in reality, it is very scary to most of us and we would probably end up dodging the entire idea altogether unless it dragged us out of our houses or held our best friend hostage. We also came to the conclusion that one person couldn't change anything. It would take a large mass of people to pull this type of thing off. Which is true once you really think about it.
