Dustin A.K.A Thrash D Thasher

 Dustin A.K.A Thrash D Thrasher Interview


A few days ago I interviewed my classmate, Dustin, about a few thing that pertain to our English 121 class. During our short interview I learned quite a lot about his preferred writing styles, his previous experience with computers, what he know about our library, his goals for this class, and any problems he has with writing in general.

In my interview with Dustin I learned that he enjoys writing opinionated essays, he finds them easier to write these because he can use his opinion instead of using only facts. He also often writes poetry usually with rhyme schemes like limericks. He does most of his writing on his computer, which is good because he has taken several class in Microsoft word, excel, and power point. He can also navigate his email, as well as the internet. Dustin has only visited our library once in his two semesters at Front Range Community College, but he does know how to navigate our library.

His goals for our class are to improve in his overall writing, improve on his grammar, and to earn an A in the class. As for problems he foresees happening in this class he worries about writing review papers because he finds them difficult to write. Unfortunately I only had a short time to interview Dustin, but in that time I was able to learn a lot about him.

Deven The Thrashmaster interview


INTERVIEW OF DEVEN THE THRASHMASTER-


After interviewing Deven, a student in my English 121 class, I learned that there are several different types of writing. For deven, he is particularly fond of persuasive style. He finds that attempting to persuade someone through writing is challenging when successful. Opinionated writing also interests deven due to being able to express himself through his very own opinion.


Deven owns his own computer. Can't really get much done without one while being in an English Class. He learned all about the library during his last semester at FRCC. He finds the library very useful and I myself need to use it more.


Like myself, deven is shooting to achieve an A in this class. he is excited about learning more and unleashing his creative spirit on paper. Planning to work closely with his organization and structure of his paragraphs, he is clearly aiming for perfection. Which is exactly how you succeed.

Review on blog "Hot Chicks Dig Smart Men"

After reviewing the blog "Hot Chicks Dig Smart Men", we were disappointed to find the first article we read was about the Women's March on Washington. Although the title may have mislead us, the content of the article in the blog was informative and an interesting. Feminists fighting other feminists about why they are or are not participating in the march. Stick together lady's. Keep things classy.
