Reflection of the LL Narrative:
This assignment was a little trouble some to do. There were not a lot of scholarly sources that I could use which would connect with my thesis. As well as there were a lot of different scholarly sources that were out of my reach to use. Although I did find it fun to do because of how limited my resources are and it made it a bit harder than I thought it would. I enjoy a good challenge everynow and then especially when writing. Which made this assignment much more enjoyable than I thought it would be. It was also a bit frustrating at times since I was getting out of ideas of how to continue writing it quite a lot.

This assignment was interesting and fun to do since I was able to look back and see how much I have grown with my language skills. I found it to be more interesting than fun because it really made me think back in my life and see where I had started from, and realize how I didn’t really see my growth throughout the years until I looked back while doing this assignment. For the fun part it was reminiscing old times and seeing how much fun I had while learning English my own way. As well as the different goals I used to have so that I would be more motivated to learn English. In the end I kind of liked the assignment because it made me remember where I started and how I am at now.

Reflection of Oral History:
Oral History Summary Analysis of Transcript(<= clickable text)
I really liked doing this assignment since I was able to learn more about my mother and her background as well as all of the different places she has been and has enjoyed visiting. Furthermore how I had some similar experiences as her like how I used to go to the fields during the summer and how my grandparents would also make a lot of food even though there were only a few of us going. I also felt that learning about the past of my mother was interesting and fun as it made me feel like we are a little more closer than we were before. As well as I learned some of the things she used to do a lot that we no longer do as often, or even stopped doing all together.
