Last Week

Hello all;
So this is it! We made it, and are counting down the last week of this term. I feel very confident in my final paper! This class has been extremely helpful in so many ways. We have learned new techniques for writing and revising a research paper. I know the paramedic method of revision was the one that stuck out the most for me, as it was a fun way to revise your paper. The part that was the most challenging for me though was keeping my opinion out of this paper. I could write forever if I was able to state my own opinions, and having to use ONLY actual researched facts about our topics was a little difficult and took a lot of time. However, I did it! I read and reread, and even had my fiance read it too:). I really enjoyed this course, and wish everyone the best of luck with everything. Hope to see some of you in future courses!:)

Comp II

Hello all;
I just had to come on and say a few things about Comp II. I think both Comp I and II are so very beneficial to us. I was not a good writer at all! Now I have some confidence in my writing, and have learned so much. I am about to submit my final project paper for both of my classes in a few minutes and I am axious about it, but confident. I have used everything I have learned in Comp I and II for my A&P II final project paper as well. I have seen such an improvement in my grades because of what I have learned in this class. We had a great instructor to teach us, and you all were great with the feedback given. Thank you all, and good luck with everything! :)

New Year, New Me!

Hello all;
I just want to say that the start of this year has already been great! I am getting so much more organized now! We are pretty much settled into our new place, starting plans for our wedding(never to early to start the planning lol), we are all getting better from being sick for over a month (because our previous house, the landlord refused to fix the furnace or anything else) and my homework, and projects are really coming together. Our new place is $100 cheaper than the last, and we have amazing plans for our big backyard in the spring:). I am so excited that things are finally calming down and falling into place. I am just an impatient person when I am unorganized, which makes things a little more hectic as only time will show you all the progress you have made:). I hope everyone else is doing well with organizing their projects, and getting them into the writing center. Have a good one everyone! :)
