PLN Video Games

While listening to the presentations in English class, the one that I found to be the most interesting was Anthony Logan's which was about video games and the effects. He talked about when people play violent games, they tend to become for violent themselves. I never would have believed this, however, I can relate. I was playing Call of Duty and I got angry and punched a chair and almost broke my hand. After my incident, I realized I needed to cut back on video games and learn to control my anger because I do not want a video game making me an aggressive person. The main thing that shocked me in Anthony's presentation was the poll he did. The majority of the people who did the poll either played video games every chance they could get, or every other day. He had said that a year ago, the poll would be the exact opposite. There have been many new violent games that have been introduced lately which shows that more and more people are playing and eventually, the violent games change their personalities. All together, the main idea is to cut back on video games, they make us aggressive and we need to learn not to use what we see in a video game in real life.

Fiction or Non-Fiction

I've read many more articles about aliens and UFO's and the more I read, the more I'm convinced they're real. I have read over 50 short articles about sightings of UFO's and more articles about people having strange "dreams" involving themselves being paralyzed and getting operated on. I don't know how to explain that circumstance other than abduction. The only way to prove these scary creatures are real is to get a real picture of an actual alien. Hopefully, an article will come my way with a picture of an actual alien sealing the deal and proving that aliens are real.

Topic PLN

The topic that I have been researching in my independent reading has been about aliens and UFO's. The main argument is whether aliens are real or not. I have read several articles on the computer about people having strange dreams and  getting parlyzed in those dreams. The question is was it a dream? People who say aliens don't exist are very closed minded in my opinion because to think we are the only life forms in the whole universe is just completely improbable. I would like to look more into my subject and find more arguments and dreams people have had to show how just maybe, we aren't the only life forms in the universe.
