The transition from objectivity to subjectivity is a writer’s paradise for me. I love writing about my standpoint on any given topic, my opinions and passion for something. Whereas with objectivity is solely hard facts and not as enjoyable to write about. I would rather let the audience hear my style and what I think about something, it feels more personal when it comes from the soul instead of objective which is unemotional. I would not say that because I am a woman and have an appeal towards an emotion, but then again that will be interesting when reading the other blogs to see if more women in the class choose to lean more towards subjectivity rather than objectivity and vise-versa for the men in the class.   Depending on what news source the reader is on, Huffington Post, National Review, CNN or Fox, heavily weighs into what the audience will read.

The one time I needed to mushfake a Discourse I was not familiar with more than I have ever had to mush fake a Discourse before, was when I was applying for a waitress position at a restaurant in San Diego that was much more of a fine dining restaurant I was used to working in.

I love learning more about my heritage and Swedish culture. I had no idea what I was going to experience, and that thrill of new experiences had me so excited to start a new chapter of my life. That one year away from everything I knew, was truly the most life changing experience. A culture shock. Everyday was a new learning lesson, in the classroom at my new school, every place I went, and all the new faces and people I met. Creating lifelong friendships and spending more time with my Swedish family. All of these new experiences and opportunities I came across that year has shaped me and grow as a woman. After my year abroad, when I returned to San Diego I realized I wanted to go back to Sweden and finish high school overseas. I felt that I was not done learning and growing more in such a beautiful country. Having to say goodbye...
