Throughout my freshman year at ACIT‚ I have learned a lot about myself. In the beginning of the year‚ I was a horrible writer and didn’t enjoy writing at all. Now‚ we are at the end of the year and I think I’m a somewhat decent writer and I actually don’t mind writing as much.

For Eckels to die wouldn’t really change anything. Also‚ Mr. Travis should consider what Eckels has gone through to be able to live‚ before killing him. He has climbed into a dead Tyrannosaurus rex‚ has pulled out bullets
