An Experience With a Friend
How working with an friend can just flow
Anything is possible when you have the right people there to support you.
-Misty Copeland
Working together as a team can be amazing; furthermore, for me, I find this to be very true. One example of this is when Panha and I worked very well together in a science lab. For Science class, we have ben burning foods to capture and calculate their calories. To do this, you out a can of water over the burning foods, and with some math, you can find out the calories by the amount of degrees the water heats up. For this lab, Panha and I decided we would work together to make this project easier. On the day of the lab, we were a little excited. We agreed that I would do the testing, and that Panha would record all of the data. This allows opus to be very efficient with our work. We set the foods on fire individually, and recorded the data. The feeling of quickly running through a tough assignment is awesome. We were the first ones in the class to finish, and we had accurate data. This experience was important to me because it shows how well Panha and I work together as a team. This gives me a good idea of how I can work with people, and how I can be a leader, but also a follower. Teamwork makes the dreamwork.
Working alone is fun but working with friends is always better and you showed that well in this.

Like Rory said, “working with friends is always better”. And you showed that perfectly in this piece. Great job.

Working together is always more fun, but at the end of the day work has to get completed, so it was nice to hear that you and Panha were able to have a good time and be productive, products only a match that is just right can yield.

I liked how you kept it short and simple providing a lot of detail and keeping me engaged the whole way.

I’m glad you guys were able to gel as a group. I enjoyed the shortness of the piece while as getting enough detail to understand the experience. Great job!

This is a great example of friendship that is a little different from the others I have read about. It does a great job at describing how you two worked vert well together in a tough situation, and executed flawlessly.

Eli, you have chosen a great theme to write about. I really like this sentence: “The feeling of quickly running through a tough assignment is awesome.” I totally agree, and there is no other word to describe it. Also, I like how you wrote about being both a leader and a follower. This is a great point that you brought up, as you never want to be too bossy, but you also do not want to be the one who doesn’t do anything. Great work.

I often see you guys working in science, and I appreciate the detail that you added to this piece, nice job.
