Rhetoric (in my daily life)

Acknowledging My Surroundings

Upon waking up, I turn off my alarm on my phone and set it aside for later. I go about

getting my kids up and ready for school. As soon as we are in the vehicle, I turn on the radio

and hear about Mulley eating a multi-layered sandwich and fries. Listening to them talk about

how amazing it was, made me want to see it for myself (I could not find it on the internet.)

Next, they talked about Majestic Market Place and how one should stop by and drink some

beers or wine. I have seen where the Market is located before and can picture myself sitting out

on the patio, enjoying the beautiful weather and sipping on a glass of wine.

Once everyone is safe and sound, I head back home to do some yoga and then I get ready

for class. Before I head out the door, I grab my phone and put it straight into my bag. On the

drive to class, I pass Sonic and notice their advertisement of 50c corn dogs, which I have no

interest in. I find a parking spot quite easy and head into the building. I do not start taking

notice of advertisements until I pass the bathroom heading to the computer lab. There are ads

for REACH, which stands for Respond, Educate, Assess, Collaborate, and Health. If you or

anyone you know needs help with anything you may contact them and if you need to report a

potential violence, they have a website with a form to fill out, so if needed, please visit this

website https://spforms.coconino.edu/sites/reach/Lists/REACH%20Form/NewForm.aspx.

There is also a brochure for Anthropology Club, which is a class I will be talking next

semester; therefore, I find it interesting, but I am to busy to even join the club. Next, I notice an

England and Ireland summer tour flyer for 2020. I would love to tour another country and meet

new people, but for now, all I can do is wish. http://www.carlseuropetours.com.

Down the hall, I see a flyer saying the Sheriffs office is hiring, so I take a picture and send it

to a family member who is interested in working there. https://coconino.az.gov/350/Sheriffs-

Office-Job. After all my classes, I go to pick up my kids and then we go straight home. At home, I

check my email and notice the daily emails from astrology.com trying to convince me to get a

reading so I can find the love of my life and another stating I have a potential future that I need

to know more about. I ignore them and just read the one for my daily horoscope.

There is a good deal of Rhetoric Texts in my life, whether, I acknowledge them or not. I am

not one to invite persuasion into my life, in fact I try my best to avoid it all, but I cannot fully

avoid it. I do enjoy some persuasion, when I can afford it. I would love to get my astrology

reading done for all parts of my life and get a birth chart done. If I had the extra time in my life I

would sign up for clubs. Rhetoric text, is not all bad, in fact some are for those in need and can

help to better one’s life.
