Self Review of Alice Psychology Paper

1.)  The first sentence is a bit awkward, should be shorter and make more of an impact.

 The topic is well established and the reader is informed what the paper will be about. 

2.) The thesis statement is unclear to the reader.

3.) The paper is well structured, and the main points are clearly listed.  Each paragraph is relevant to the introduction and thesis.

4.)For the most part the essay is clear except for the explanation of an absolute monarchy in the third paragraph, and the last couple sentences stray off topic.

5.)  No sources were cited.

6.) The greatest strength is probably vocabulary.  Good word choices

Alice In Wonderland Psychology Paper Proposal

Several of the characters in Wonderland, specifically the White Rabbit, the King and Queen of Hearts, and the pigeon in the tree, display the characteristics of paranoid personality disorder.  They all are hypersensitive, perceive innocent remarks as a personal attack, and are prone to anger.  I propose that living in such an unstable and harsh environment such as Wonderland is perfectly capable of causing such personality traits.

About Me

Hello my name is Gregory, I also go by Greg.  I'm 22 years old and I'm from Tampa, Florida.  I'm fairly new to New York, currently I live in East Harlem with my Dad.  I'm considered a transfer student, but its been a few years since I was last in a college atmosphere.  Outside of school I work at Starbucks as a shift supervisor.  I watch very little television and try to read as much as possible.  Some of my favorite books are Tuesdays with Morrie, The Power of Now, and The Art of Happiness. 

I love the outdoors! I really enjoy playing a variety of sports including football, basketball, golf, and a personal favorite ultimate frisbee.  I try to keep active when not at work or school.  Even though I don't run as much presently I really enjoy a long run through Central Park.  I was a pretty serious runner last year and participated in a marathon while staying in Israel.  Sports were a huge part of my younger life but have faded out with my maturation. 

I feel I have changed tremendously in the last few years.  After working two summers at a Jewish summer camp I have been very interested in religion and other cultures. I was raised in a Catholic family and even went to a Catholic school for a few years, but after spontaneously applying to this camp to work with my roomate at the time, it opened my eyes to a different way of life.  I volunteered in a work study program that took place in Israel last year where I spent six months living in a kibbutz (basically a commune).  It was the most amazing time of my life!  I learned soo much about the culture, the religion, the history of Israel and the middle east while simultaneously learned a lot about myself.  I've been a bit of a nomad the last year and a half, but I'm very excited and eager to get back into school and start a new chapter in my life.
