Since we are halfway through the semester my writing has improved since we started. Few things that I should work on are some major things when it comes to writing. First I feel my sentence structures need to be worked on. I seem to place words and information that may not even be relevant to what I am writing about. My punctuation seems to be another big thing, I seem to have run-on sentences when I am writing making the reader run out of breath. The only way I can fix theses issues is if I actually make time to go to the writing center. I seem to never make time, when I am off from school and work I do other things rather then actually going to school and taking the time to see a tutor. I understand that its just hurting myself even more by not seeking help. I do plan on getting help soon. So I can finish the rest of my semester not worrying what my grade will be with all of the final papers coming up.

The Best Notebook
Number 1. This Notebook would be my number one choice for note taking while out on the field. The reason why I would use this notebook because its not to big to carry in my vest. fits right in my pocket being used for little notes with not serious situations.

Number 2. This Notebook is a little bit bigger but keeps the officer organized with subjects names and phone numbers being nicely organized for officers. That are on a bigger call needing a lot of witnesses information or victims information. This Book is not full size and easy to carry in your bag with all of your goodies in the police car.

Number 3. This Notebook would barley be used but you never know how much information you will need in your report. This full size notebook would be used to draw scenes to help picture what happen but also to maybe hand wright your report before you type it.

On July 7th 2015, at approximately 1230 hours, I (Officer Ispas) was dispatched to 1647 Rancho, El Fuego reference a suspicious person.
I arrived on scene and spoke with caller katherine Tunney D.O.B of 09-16-1989 and her mother Carol, Tunney D.O.B of 1-21-1966. Katherine stated she was getting ready to leave her residence when she seen a white Toyota van wagon with a bearing registration of (836L92F) in the middle of the street. Katherine said she seen a male white with gray hair in the vehicle taking pictures of her residence. Katherine then went over to talk to the suspicious person, when the driver fled off at a high speed. A L.E.A.D.S Inquiry of the bearing registration of (836L92F) came back to a 2004 Toyota wagon that is registered to a Stephen, Bond D address of 3381 El Balazo, El Fuego.
Katherine told me that she only called the police because her mother Carol had the same issue on April of 2015. Carol told me that she filed a police report right after the incident happen. Carol explained that she was in her garage, when a unknown subject came by the garage and asked her what was her name. Carol refused to give any information making the subject leave in a 2008 SAAB bearing registration of (ISPYONU). A L.E.A.D.S inquiry of the registration came back to a Richard, Toomey address of 36 Paseo De Bonito, El Rancho.
I advised Katherine and Carol that no crime has occurred at this time and that this incident will be documented and forward to Investigations.
Nothing Further.

Finally Done!

The summary documentary project is complete. We are finally done with our first project. One of the biggest challenge I had was not to be bias and how to structure my paper. From the beginning to the end, my paper changed completely. I am proud to be finally done and hope the best with my future papers.

Thoughts My Own Writing
Last class discussion we wrote anything that came into our heads about our writing on the documentary project. Writing about our own free thoughts this is what I was thinking in my head while writing.
One main thing is my confidence when it comes down to writing. I seem to let myself down, thinking I'm the worst when it comes down to writing papers with my grammar and spelling. Then, it affects myself to be lazy and "Fluff" the paper as people would say. Including things in my writing that don't even make sense. Another, Issue in my writing is I seem not to focus I keep talking about something that doesn't even correlate or wasn't in video. My writing doesn't seem to be a timeline every main plot is all over the place.
That being said One of my Pros when writing is, I'm good at always keeping things short and sweet. This can be good or a bad when it comes to writing papers.
Its very good this week in class that we get time to manage our papers and write multiple drafts. It benefits with time when everyone has other things going on and whats needed to be fixed in our papers.
