Writing - Brainstorming (Part 2)

Let's take a detour from the vocabulary studies & have some fun with something else. (Vocabulary is fun, right?) I'd like you to brainstorm some words or short phrases that come to mind when you think of your online class.

Make a short list below with 3-6 items. It can be anything that comes to mind when you think of your online class: subjects you study, technology you use, skills you've learned, etc.

List of 3-6 things that come to my mind when I think of my online class:
1)Caring. These people care and want me to succeed.
2) Concentration. I'm living in a home with 12 girls so concentration is necessary for me to focus.
3) Fortunate. I know I am very fortunate to be able to get an education on the computer.
4) Worthwhile. Sacrificing things I want to do for fun so I can do GED is worthwhile in the long run.

Good moring,

Just wanted to see everyone's view on "The Cargo Ship and crew members that been held hostage" by the Somali Pirates. It has been said that these captian are trained not to fight back but instead, give the pirates whatever they want. I think that if you are going to sail in open water where it is know for pirates to hijacked ships, then Captain and their crew members should be able to defend themselves. The ships should have firearms and whatsoever they think is necessary to protect themselves.

Let me know what you think about the situation.

When I am thinking about the new class I am taking, Administative Assistant,I am both nervous and happy. Nervous because it will be my first time helping a company at that level.On the other hand I am happy because I get to do something else, something more meaningful. I cannot wait!
