Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

2. How do you define “success”?
After reading the handbook, I have learned something about perseverance and success. In my opinion, success is different in everyone's eyes. In the book, Rosie Perez finally became a actress. In her eyes, she has succeed. That's why she wrote the book and share her experience to us. As we know, she had a miserable childhood with her mother. How could she succeed? Perseverance helped her a lot. She never give up and keep forward. Her ambition and effort finally give her back.

I would say that success is knowing that you went through a struggle to get to a good place, but being humble about it because you know that it wasn't easy.
