    Reading, a pastime I did not really enjoy, There was nothing anybody could do to get me to read. If someone wanted me to read they would have to strap me down in a chair, and force my eyes to go across the pages. Okay, not literally, I am over dramatizing, but I really did not like reading, until one day a book I read changed everything. In the late Autumn of 2008, my mother was searching through the Scholastic Book Club catalog that was from my school library.

    I chose Diary of a Wimpy Kid because during this course, the subject of childhood development really interest me. Another stage that charmed me was adolescents, which is why I chose Easy A; it also helped that I have seen both movies and enjoyed them as well.

    I never though that conversations could be well-organized. From experience, I noticed that within speech events, a conversation usually starts with a greeting and ends with a goodbye. From reading this section on speech events, I realized that they are many opening sequences and closing sequences that I never thought that makes language unique. A long time ago, I watch Diary of the Wimpy Kid the movie. It was the scene when Greg and Rowley hid under the bleachers from playing dodge ball. When…
