Arguement

My mom believed that I went into my sisters room and stole her straightener. I told her I did not. We argued about this for a while and we went back and forth with different points. I told her that I was not in Taylor's room because I hadn't even been upstairs yet that day. She didn't believe me, she asked me who else would've taken it. I said I don't know but it for sure wasn't me. My sister then came downstairs and announced that she found her straightener and she had it all along.

Logical Fallacies

The fallacy that I think I have heard of or seen the most would be the hasty conclusions one. Hasty conclusions is when you have one piece of evidence and then you assume something. For example, All girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch shop only at that store. So if I saw a girl that was wearing Abercrombie and Fitch I would automatically assume that she only shops at that one store. I think that this one is a very common fallacy. Its probably the most common in verbal arguements, your trying to prove your point so any type of information you get you will assume something about it.

Personal Essay

I liked a lot of things about my personal essay. It was really easy for me to write because the situation happened over my senior year so all the details were fresh in my head. Also, I liked it because it was easy to get four pages. I felt like I had done a good job. What I didn't like was that I felt like because of the limit in pages, I couldn't give enough detail about the essay and everything that happened to me. I feel like if I was able to add that to my paper it would flow a bit better and also it would help my point.
