Is incredible how the nations of different side of the world use the war to be potent in economic, social and political status. The war took away more than two millions lives, in where many of them were civilians. Many people were wounded and a hundred of children were left orphans. Also hectares of forest was destroyed. The herbicides used, has left a serious ecological and human impact on Vietnamese people’s lives. Today there are still many children in Vietnam growing up with various diseases and disabilities affected by the harmful chemicals carried out in the war. In summary the consequences of war were: people dye, children without parents, many people affected by the chemicals and many of the veterans suffered psychological after affects. All this happens to make a nations more potent. The government do not have consideration with people who facing this situation. The government just want money and power and do not care for the life of his country. In the chapter five, searching for forgiveness in Vietnam there is a lot of phrases that describes that the people of Vietnam forget that terrible situations. I think that exist a little percent of people who suffered in that war. The war pass out like 70 years ago. Today must be alive the children and grandchildren of those people who were in the war. Its strong carry out a life without a parents and the lack of his love, compassion and guide. In the chapter the author said :“It was an enormous relief to know that Vietnam has survived our war and is thriving. It was reassuring to learn that life move on, and even when a country is bombed, defoliated, and destroyed, it can come back with great vigor. I was humbled by a people who have suffered so much and have chosen forgiveness over fury”. I think the time is the cure for everything. It's like when two people are in love and break their relationship. At first it will be strong for both because they think they cannot live without the other person. But then over time you can recognize that it was only a life experience and and had the opportunity to experiment new things. And when they experience new things replace the tormenting memories. Also with that terrible event, the people who live there would’nt want to experiment a similar experience again. I think they just do not want remember that situations. They just want continues his life and forget the pass. It’s hard to do this, but they do not have other options. Because if they use the revenge , another war coming.

Vietnam
Is incredible how the nations of different side of the world use the war to be potent in economic, social and political status. The war took away more than two millions lives, in where many of them were civilians. Many people were wounded and a hundred of children were left orphans. Also hectares of forest was destroyed.

8th Annual Student Research and Writing Conference
I had the
opportunity to be part of the 8th Annual Student Research and
Writing Conference. This took place in amphitheater 3, DMN and were two days of
learning. This was organized by a professor committee member and the
coordinator of this event was Dr. Cynthia Pittmann. In this two days there was,
student’s research, theme panels and creative initiatives. The purpose of this
event was transforming experience through research and writing share by the
students.
In my case I had the
opportunity to be listener and I work as a staff. In the experience like a listener my group
presented a panels. In the classroom there is like twenty five students and we
take five to present. Our group presented about the essay of Karl Joung called:
Memories, Dreams and Reflections. I like how they presented because they
exposed a summary of the essay and they analyzed. They presented the most
important quotes of the essay and develop a critical thinking of them. On the
other hand my experience as a staff was different. I had the opportunity to monitor
the audience, be aware that people do not speak loud and maintain control of
each situation. Also I had the opportunity to listens two presentations. I
don’t remember the name of the presentations, but was something about war. The
student just read their essay and they do not have visual contact with the
audience. They were reading the paper in the presentation. How I was staff, I
was alert of the mood of people and in this presentation the people do not was
pay attention. I think that was the way they reading their essays. It took a
slow way of reading and that boring all the people.
In conclusion all
the presentation was interesting. I don’t listen all the presentation but I saw
the title of the presenter and seems curious. Also the participation of
Marileyda Hernandez was incredible. She has an angel voice and this performance
represented a creative idea because apart of all student research we can enjoy
of her music.

Journal Activity
This
graph Represent the scores t of a long way of writing that I did in my journal.
This numbers Represent an overall feeling about me. This feeling were
categorized in four part: Spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. In the
first eleven entries my scores were very low, but in the trajectory I can up my
result. My average of feelings was seven. I think is a good result but I would like
to have a better score. I think my feeling were inconsistent, but consistent in
a little periods of time. In the first eleven scores, my overall feelings were
four to seven and in the other entries were eight to twelve. I like this
exercise because I can writing about how I felt in every day. All my thoughts
were writing in that journal. Also compare how I felt week by week was very
impressive. The graph show me that my life was inconsistent. Sometimes down and
sometimes up. Every day we face different challenges but not every day we face
them with the same attitude. In conclusion, this journal helped me to see the
different standards of my feelings. It also helped to unburden myself. All my
life, my thoughts, my decisions were written in that journal.
