If ever there was an idea custom-made for a Jay Leno monlogue, this was it: Robert Pattinson hasn't showered his hair since the making of Twilight. Isn't that like not brushing your teeth? Whatever happened to daily showers and personal hygene?
I happen to sympathize with Rob, though, perhaps because my hair takes forever to look perfect as well and i wouldn't want to shower it all the time either. I mean, come on, the guy is known for his incredible messy signiture hair. Would you wash a million dollars? No, and thats exactly why he doesn't shower his million dollar hair. Many people may think its disgusting but if thats whats making him successful then i say go for it rob!! don't shower!!

Composing something in digital space comes as a freedom to create whatever you please. Many people aren't actually good at painting, or photography, or even handwriting.

It also is efficient to the modern day college student to use digital space to compose essays, pictures, and so on.
Taking a snapshot of my screen was something I did not know how to do prior to this assignment. However, with easy instructions and access to the “blogger.com” website, making a blog and posting this assignment was simple to do. This is one example of taking advantage of a digital composing process. If people are taught and learn how to follow processes similar to this assignment’s process, then the digital space can easily be used in composing anything from essays, to blogs, to works of art. This assignment shows proof that one does not have to be tech-savvy in order to follow a digital composing process.
