I'm almost there...

We did peer editing yesterday and I feel like I got some really good comments on my paper. It gave me a more ideas for making my paper better and changing it to make more sense. I have to really put a lot of work into my final copy of the final paper!

Tomorrow is our last day of class. It seems like this semester flew by. I'm glad that we can finally be done with our blogging! It is so hard to remember to do it every week.

Second Draft

Our second draft is due tomorrow and I just finished reworking it for the peer editing. I'm really glad that class time is set aside for our peers to edit our papers because it gives me good ideas and they really put a lot into editing my papers! Yay. Even though I just finished my second draft, I know that I still have a lot of work to do on this paper to make it a wonderful FINAL PAPER! Like I said before.. this paper is going to push me to get a better grade if I do good on it!! I like my topic and I have a vested interest in it, so hopefully I can show that throughout my paper!

The Last Week!

This is my last week of my first year of college. :] It sure has been a journey. I am hoping that I can finish out this semester in a good way. I have a lot of studying and paper writing to do still & I'm hoping that everything turns out in a positive way. I have to work on my second draft of our final paper still. I have my sociology final next Monday and my math final due next Tuesday, along with our final paper being due on that day. This week and next weekend, I am dedicating to school & ONLY school. I just can't wait for next Tuesday to be over!! :]

FINALLY!

I finally presented my photo essay today and received my self reflection back. I thought that I would never get a chance to present since class is over in a week. I did though, and I did well on it too! Thank goodness! I'm glad that I've improved as the semester has gone on. Not once have I gotten a worse grade than the paper before. It makes me feel accomplished when I improve on every paper. I really like writing and I would really like to be a journalist but I know that I'm not THAT good. Oh well, I'll just stick with marketing or something like that!

Peer Editing

Even though I thought that my first rough draft was good, I realized that I still have a lot of work to do on it. After reading of it and reading the comments left by my peers I thought about a lot of new things that I should do to rework the paper. I need to put more of my opinion into the paper and put more feeling into it. I know that I can make my paper much better. Our second rough draft is due a week from today so I should get working on that so I can make it much better than this copy.

First Draft

Our first draft of our final paper is due tomorrow. I have completed it and I feel that I have a good thesis and that it is going in the right direction. Of course I have a ton of work to put into it still, but I hope that it will eventually turn out really good. This paper is kind of a make or break for my grade so I need to push myself to continue to edit and rework it to make it GREAT! :]

Greek Week

Greek week starts on Monday. No matter what happens, I know that my sisters will always be there for me! I'm pretty excited though. It should be really fun. I've heard how close it brings everyone together. I haven't been that close with everyone, so this should be good for us. I'm competing in a few events so hopefully I will do good for my sorority! :]
