Chapter 8 Activity 2, Revising Sentences and Words

Some students have trouble getting along with their roomates.

Simple/Compound:
          Many students will go to college. It is an excititng adventure. It is a chance for them to be free and to express themselves. For some, it will not be easy. Many students will have roomates. Everyone is different. Some people have trouble adapting to change. They do not like compromise. This can make having a roomate difficult.

Complex/Compund-Complex:
          Many students are excited to finish high school and go to college. College is a place where students feel they can finally be free and express themselves as individuals. Unfortunatly, this is not always as easy as it seems. Some students will have roomates and because everyone is different, there can be conflict between them. When you are living with someone that has trouble adapting to change and does not like to compromise, it can make having a roomate difficult.

My first paragraph was a little difficult to write, because I felt  like I could not emphasize on too much information. The second paragraph was easier, because I didn't feel like I was holding back and I could write more freely. Both paragraphs initially mean the same and the topic is still apparent.
