Last Week

Hello, I feel like I have a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders. My paper grade is good and I feel satisfied with it. This class wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. College Comp 1 actually had more work. This class was a little more difficult because the whole writing process was put on us. College Comp 1 had more writing due because every step of the paper was an assignment that we were graded on and got feedback from. We had to use everything we learned in that class for this class without breaking it down into steps. I feel like I remembered everything and did a great job. I think the steps that I took in prewriting , editing, revision, and post writing have worked for me in the past and they continue to work great for me. For any new students I would say to not procrastinate so you can take your time writing. It helped for me to start early then walk away from it and not work on it for about a week. When I went back to it, it was like I was looking at it with a fresh pair of eyes and I could see things that I didn't notice before.

Unit 9

I can't believe this class is almost over. Actually this term. It has gone by so fast. My paper is almost done. I feel confident that I've done well.  Its a great accomplishment. I take pride in what I'm doing here. I feel the same about writing. I've loved doing it in the past, and don't have much time for it now. I've learned new editing techniques this term, such as the paramedic method. My writing style is still the same. For any future papers I'd like to research, legalizing marijuana, advancements in cancer reasearch, and how ADHD affects sleep.

unit 8

 I haven't had any problems with the blog. Well, one problem is thinking of stuff to write about. When I'm writing papers and discussion boards for three classes it gets hard to think of something new when all that stuff is swirling around in my head. I haven't had many comments on previous blogs. The ones I do have are from fellow Floridians, which is cool. It seems like everyone that lives in FL loves it. I remember being so miserable living in the small town in Virginia. This tropical air changes people. Anyway, back to the blog. I don't think I'll stick with this after class is over. I write on facebook all the time so I don't have a need for this blog. I like the concept though. Sitting down and writing about whatever is on your mind can be therapeutic. It would be more interesting if I had more comments from other people and maybe someone to debate with. I think that being in a class, people don't want to disagree with what you are saying.
