Essay #1: Idea Draft

- I am planning to analysis the text and annotation that I did when I was reading the Path Appear.
- This book is basically about encouraging people to take opportunity and make it change.
- Probably I will write about the author background in my introduction. For my thesis, I will focus on the quote that I like which is " We can do better if we put our hearts and mind to it" (16) with that quote I will connect with my reading and writing process. Like as the time goes passed by, we can also write better if we put our hearts and mind to make it change for better.
- For my evidences; "We decide that our focus should be on expanding opportunity worldwide because talent is universal but opportunity is not" (10) Based on this quote, we should take learning  as an opportunity to take action to become academic reader or writer over time.
"The benefits of outreach flow in both directions. It's not only the Isemondes who gain, but also those who help"(12)
- Just like the story about Tererai Trent and Professor David Olds who invented the program for children to have a better future life by training them at their beginning of their childhood.
"if we miss that opportunity at the front end, it can be far more difficult and costly to try to undo the damage later"(66).

- While I was annotations the Path Appear, I used the stick notecards to write down the short summary and the main ideas
- My annotation will be helpful when I am writing the essay by using as a example or prove my argument of my thesis statement. I think the rest of the book will be still different little interesting people who made the difference in the world.
- The main argument of the author is giving message about we should take action when there is an opportunity, don't miss out.
