“ Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the world’s work, and the power to appreciate life.”
Brigham Young
The radio show “Evening with Oz” that I was allowed to create for 484, was truly a wonderful, fulfilling experience. Not only did I learn a great deal of information, but the teachers and professors I interviewed agreed that this was one of the funnest projects they have ever been lucky enough to participate in. I found that creating a researched paper in this manner, I was able to combine all of the elements of writing that I have had to struggle with and conquered in the past. This project was my bike ride into the sunset because it was a beautiful fit for me. The topic was interesting and exciting. I was motivated to do the  and I wanted to discover if my thesis was correct in any way. After all of the research and organization was taken care of, (the bike was put together) and I was able to arrange all of the other items in my composition  in the proper way (proper grammar, mechanics, sentence structure, thesis, paragraph transitions, and things of that nature) and the road was smooth into the sunset.

The other trails and bumpy roads that I have traveled on were great practice to help me to get used to how I feel and think about writing and how I actually execute the writing process. The other papers that I have mentioned have been tough, but necessary because without them, just like a biker without challenging roads, experience cannot be gained. Experience and confidence are a golden key to my writing and this is what I learned. I will build on this knowledge in the future as I continue my academic journey!

HAPPY TRAILS!!!!
