If there was suddenly no alphabet...
The world without an alphabet would be very chaotic and confusing. The alphabet, and writing is one of our main ways of communication. Driving would be extremely dangerous, because we wouldn't have road signs or traffic laws posted. People would have to use more common sense and maps, without relying on street names, it would be very hard to do. Learning would be hard, because we wouldn't have books. It would be hard to document things because you wouldn't be able to write anything down. People would probably use video recording more in order to document important moments rather than writing them down. In a way nothing would exist, because everything has a name. Life would be very confusing and complicated if the alphabet suddenly did not exist.

Writing A Resume Reflection
Creating a resume was very different than I thought it would be. To start my resume, I had to think of what job I was applying for. I never knew that a resume was specific to the job you're applying for, I always thought they were more universal, but they're not. In the cover letter I made it specific for the job I was applying for, which is the Pet's Pajamas Pet Store. I mentioned that I was good with animals and social interaction, because that's what I would be working with If I were to get the job. I also talked about my experience working with animals and people, my school and my grades, and the activities I partake in. My perception of resumes has changed since we first started learning about them. I thought making a resume would be hard and boring, and while it wasn't easy talking about myself, it wasn't boring, and I thought it is something that will become very useful when I need to actually apply for a job in the near future.
