'cause everything need to be introduce

YEAH! I'm back! But it won't be much interesting, i'm just doing another homework.

I have to write four kind of introduction that include lead-in + the thesis for the subject that I will choose. Mine is #4: Drew Hayden Taylor writes about the myth of pan-Indianism. What myths of stereotypes exist about your culture, gender, or age group? Compare the myths with the reality.

1- Teens are all on drugs! Well, a lot of adult thinks so. But where does these kind of stereotype comes from? Maybe because where living everyday like it's the last, because we try things without thinking of the consequences or without being totally responsible. Maybe because adults have forgot their own childhood and teenages experiences. So they have to find an excuse to thoses incomprehensible actions. Well, I think that teens should have their chances and that adult should never forget their own memories and crazy stories because maybe they've done worst!

2- I know some friends that went to Europe in a school trip some years ago and they where trying to explain where they come from. Well it was hard to explain when and what Quebec was so they said that they where from Canada and so stereotype come out of the people asking if they where chasing indians and hunting moose. This show them that for a lot of people in the world, thoses who are living in Canada are some old savage or barbarian woodman. We should found some ways to show to the world what we had become.

3- Have you already thought that male where without emotions? It's actually a hard stereotype for my gender. Yes, a lot of them hide their feelings, but actually, this is a rare particularity that every humans have: feelings. And actually to be someone whose really emotional, it's hard to be a guy too. Hiding feeling is not easy and I think that we should change thoses ideas about male and not consider gay of effeminate thoses who don't apply to thoses stereotypes. It's like saying that a guy who shows his emotions is not part of his gender. Everyone on earth is different, it should be the same in gender.

4- Everyday my fathers woke up early in the morning to go hunt some moose, fish some big fish in the river behind my home for dinner and go cut some trees with his axe because he's a proud and barbarian woodman like every canadians. I mean, i'm talking about my father but all men in my neighbourhood and fathers of my friends, everyone are so retarded in civilisation! Are my statement frustrating you? Well actually, it's what a lot of people in the world think when we mentionned Canada to them! It's time to prove to the world what we, Canadians had become.

Here, I rethink

Hi! With my teacher's comment on my Reach to the top post, I have to rethink my S.M.A.R.T. goals and clarify some point for him.

For the first goal, the reason is simple. I want to watch series in their original forms 'cause first, I like good shows and actually dubbing actually sucks.

Actually I don't have time limit because I know that I will always watch tv shows and I watch them often, so I know that I will ensure success in a good way.

For the second one, I think my teacher read the post too fast because actually I never said that I want to memorize movies, I said *MASTERIZE* a larger range of movies, wich means here, that actually the lever of comprehension will be different for, let's say an animation, an action movies or a britain one. So that's what I mean when i'm saying that I want to "masterize a more large numbers of movie in english that I will understand almost fully and not only in surface".

And since I know that I watch often movies in english, in the same scale as tv series, maybe more in this case, I know that I don't really need to give me a measure for this goal, 'cause it's something that will help me in my everyday life, so I know that I would have done it too without a S.M.A.R.T. goal program.

For the third one, I think that by reading, and reading and reading a lot lot lot, would actually be a better way to minimize the use of dictionnary, 'cause by reading a lot, words will comes and go, same one too, so I don't think that I necessary needs to impose myself a list of words that I will have to learn.

So well, it,s a little update, just to tell in a more detail way my goals.

Too much

Wow, it's been more than a week since my last post, so I will exposed my thought of the day: I have way too much homeworks in english!

God I will turn crazy, mad or something!

But I watch some episodes of series in their original form so it brings me closer to my goals. makes me way happy :-) I went to english movies in theaters too, lately. And read some articles on the internet too :-)

So well, have a nice day!
