Manifesto

Manifesto what is the meaning of this? When I heard manifesto I really did not know what it meant but I research it and found out what it meant. It is a public declaration of opinions, objectives and motives. They use this term a lot in the government and also when I ask my parents they said one of the most famous manifesto was the Communist Manifesto. They also told me that the US was founded around a manifesto I didn’t know what they were talking about. I had to research it and found out that it was a piece of document called the Declaration of Independence.

This semester I plan to work hard and strive for the best. I have set some hard goals for myself including an eight a clock class every day of the week. I also have to practice with the Lady Tigers Volleyball team every day. Is going to be hard but like the saying says “no pain no game.” I expect a challenging class with much great discussion about different themes about conflicts about life in general. Although I hope we don’t have that much home work even though that is almost impossible but it’s just a thought. I also expect some debates in which we can compare our different points of views on the subjects we choose to debate on. I also hope that is going to be a fun class even tough is so early in the morning. The students say that you are a very good teacher and that you are fun so I hope that is true.

Language is one many communication methods but to me is the most important of all. The English language to me is if not the hardest one of the hardest languages to learn out there. There are many variations of sounds with words that are written the same it was very confusing at the beginning. English being my second language I know the importance of languages in general. I think that is very important to know your own language well and if you can learn another language. Languages are not only a method of communication but a method of expressing yourself. Whether you express it in a song, or on a poem, or a novel. They all are ways of expression just in different forms.

My objective in this class is to better myself in the reading area and also in the interpretation area. Both of which I had some problems in the first semester but I tried hard to change through the semester. I also expect to be more outspoken about my thoughts and views on any argument or debate that we have. One of my main concerns is the writing skill that I need to brush up on. Even though at the end of last semester I was getting better I still need to improved and try to make less grammar error and less repetition of the same words.

My personal views, well I guess you can call me a liberal but I hate politics anyways to me they are all the same they say they are going to do something and then you don’t see it done. Plus so many of them have been corrupt that you don’t know who to believe anymore is sad to say but it happens on a daily basis. But enough of that matter, I am a catholic raised in the small yet beautiful island of Puerto Rico where the majority of the people are catholic. The environment that I was raised in I think has a lot to say of the way I think about races and color. We are always raised color blind you don’t see the color separation that you see around here in some places. We are thought from the beginning that we are all the same to me that am true unity of race because where I was born your color did not matter, you where no matter what a Puerto Rican not even if your face has the characteristics of Asian you still are considered a Puerto Rican. That is just one example of the way I was thought to look at people when I was little. It actually to me comes naturally.
