My discourse will be about my role as a student. I think being a student can be the most exhilarating time in your life. New friends, new places, new challenges can all add you to a huge buzz. I choose to write about my discourse as a student because in student’s life there are many phases such as success, failure and most important is stress. There are many worries in student’s life such as financial worries, exam pressure, burden of homework and so on. When I was a child I use to be in stress while going to school. My parents use to ask me what stress? Everything is provided to you. You have got food, shelter, clothes and schooling: I use to think then, what if I don’t get my homework done? What if it is too hard? What if I fail? What if I am dumb? My discourse will try to capture the true picture of student’s life.
The primary text for this assignment is Marjorie Savage’s “you are on your own”. This text is interesting and not too difficult to describe. This text is inspirational book that can answer you many questions and can help you to motivate in some ways. The author empathizes with college students as well as with their parents. Kids who are starting college can do some pretty bizarre things that parents can’t always understand. This book explains things from the parent’s point of view as well as the students. This text reflects the state of mind of the college going student and their parents. If you are a college going student in case you are in trouble gives an idea what to do next.
My resources to write my discourse will be through my research. My resources include some of the magazines, media that I will talk about the different aspects of a student.
