Amongst my findings of the article we are supposed to find and write about, I have truly been having problems finding something to strike my interest. It was beginning to get frusterating, because once I had found my article, it wasn't what I wanted and it made me upset because I had to settle. Then I realized that I hadn't met the requirement for the assignment. So, with time decreasing, I went and searched for another article, and after about an hour and a half, I found what I needed.
Boy I was discouraged, because I wanted to find something good, write my paper early, and not have to procrastinate. Although I had less time to write my paper, I was very thankful that I did find something else to write about. My new essay talks about a heater explosion fire in a home of the two surviving Afghan sisters and how they lost their family, as well as talked about the condition they were in.
I was very intrigued by this article, but I also wanted to find a story that I could connect with it. Since I give my time to help people I want to read about someone helping others as well. I feel that it's a very important thing to help people, when they are so desperate. These little girls were four and six, so with the tragic loss of their family members, the American volunteers stepped in and ran the burn clinic they had set up.
Here's the thought of the day:
"If you were helpless and stranded, wouldn't you want someone there that was capable of helping you in your time of need?..Well then why not show that same gratitude, and help out someone else in their time of need?"

That article sounds interesting. Do you know if it's available online?
Im glad you found an article you liked to write about, I know how difficult it was to find something you could relate to, so that your paper was well written. I really like how you have the thought of the day at the end of every post, I find it interesting and it brings your feelings out to the open.
