Because my apartment is the only place that I like to stay away from the noisemy haven from the chaos outside, I have chosen this place as a topic to talk about."?
After a tough day, I am lying down in the living room to take some rest. I love taking care of my apartment which I spend most of my time in so Because I spend most of my time in my apartment, I do not like to keep it messy; instead, I have surrounded myself with some small works of art, such as the small, red vase my uncle sent me from Bangladesh. Currently, I am sitting in the living room, which I consider it my shelter"? and my safe place, because it gives me a positive impressionsprotected feeling. My apartment is just the right size for me,place extent"??s is enough to me especially thatsince nobody lives with me and I enjoy being alone. It is 11.15 PM and everything is quiet around me. I jJust hear the ticking of the clock, and the humming of the fridge sound and listeningwhile I listen to the quiet and emotional music. In addition, the TV is working but it is in a mute situationThe TV is on, but I have it muted. however, I like being lonely some times to get relax. Sitting next to the fireplace is my favorite sit soplace of repose, and so there I sit,I am writing the essay, drinking some steaming, honeyed tea which is beside me, looking around me and try to use all my sensitives. The wood is burning and I am hearing its popping in the fireplace which brings the happiness feeling to me and its smell nice to me especially in the late of the night when every thing is quiet and it warms the placeburning, and I can hear it pop. That familiar sound, along with the smell of the burning wood and the warmth it provides, contents me. I am wearing heavy clothes to stay warm because of the weather is very cold in my towntwo sweaters to stay warm on this frigid night. There is a couch sectional in my living room, but I feel most comfortable on the floor, and so I’m sitting there now. Moreover, there are two pieces of sofas around me in the living room but I prefer sitting on the ground instead of sofa because sitting on the ground makes me feel more comfortable and I can sit as I want. There are four pictures all over my walls. The two soft corner lights are turned on and give a dim lighting.
The two corner lights give the room a warm, soft ambiance.

Negative description
I just couldn’t sleep, even though it’s so late, so I decided to get out of bed and write down my feelings. I’m hungry, but I don’t want to cook. I’m bored, but I’m so far away from my family that I don’t have anything to do – there are no other expatriates from my country in this neighborhood. I have no one around me to help support and motivate me. I don’t even like this cheap American couch, so instead I’m going to sit on the floor. The fireplace lets too much smoke come back into the living room, and my whole apartment is beginning to stink. Oh, and that popping from the fire – it will keep me awake. Usually it’s really quiet around here, but it sounds like my neighbor is trying to drop a safe through the ceiling and crush me with it. Those booming sounds are driving me nuts. Living alone, I thought, would give me a lot of freedom. Instead, though, I’m just alone – and wide awake.
First of all, the time is too late. I could not sleep so, I decided to begin writing about my feeling and write what I feel this time. I am hungry but I am not in the mood to cook anything. I feel bored when I stay until the midnight. Some times I feel bored and asking my self, why I am here? staying away from my family and expatriate especially no one lives with me to help me in many things at least to support and motivate me. Moreover, I like watching movies, listening to the music or playing guitar when I feel bored trying to avoid feeling alone and bored. Now actually I am hearing my neighbor who lives above my apartments making some noise by his strongly walking and moving some staff and this makes me nervous and is the negative thing that I am suffering from right now. Generally, living in this apartment is great but I still thinking about my family which make me feel home sick. Finally, Living alone is the bad thing to me sometimes.
Rhetorical Analysis
I described the living room because it is the only place where I find my comfort in. the description was about both negative and positive aspects and the things which made me feel comfortable and annoyed. I believef that it is hard to describe something or place truly because sometimes I can not explain the point"?accuratelya place that one is familiar with accurately. I tried to write the truth only and how the place makes me happy and the reasons that make me unhappystick to the truth and to the things that make me happy and unhappy about my apartment. The place makes me feel reassured and warmth. "?Also, my living room is the place where I spend most of my time in thinking and looking forcontemplating my future. Because of my comfort in this place, some days I like to take a nap in it and sleep until the next day. I used to sit in the living room and I furnished it by a colorful furniture to give acolorfully to create a warm good look and feeling in the place. I do my all activities the living room, thats which is why I decided to write about it. I wrote about what I felt at that moment in my description. I took about the atmosphere in the living room and talked about some of my furniture and my feeling. Actually the positive descriptions were morecontained more detail than the negative description and I gave more details in that contributed to the positives. The negatives, whether were about my feelings or about the place have been describedplace, are also in the piece. When I described my feeling it was really truefeelings, I was writing the truth, and I feel bad when I rememberdo miss my family. I tried very hard to describe everything around me, and this was a little difficult especially my problem is the vocabulary because I have been in the U.S for 3 years and I did my best. next time I will use the dictionary to explain more and more."?

Reflection
First of all, I learned that the writer should have enoughneeds a solid vocabulary to write anything easily. At the same time, the vocabulary helps the writer to finish his writing faster. Secondly, every writer has his method in writingan individual method. For instance, if my friend were to write in the same place, we will be noticed hhis writing maybe might be completely different because he will be depending on his way in writing. Practicing in writing also helps the beginner writer to know how to organize the articles, essays, researchesetcresearch, and so on. I am in fact not satisfied on with my writing and I have to work hard to improve my skills. I did use the basics word and next time I will use more vocabularybasic words this time; next time, I will broaden my word choice.
