Woo! Last required blog!

Well, it's near the end of the semester. It's A bit bittersweet. The whole college ordeal is almost halfway over for me. I am enrolling in classes today, though most of them will be very full as its late into the time to enroll. Oh well. So as far as writing and revising, I haven't gotten very far. I know that I should be working on it, but I've not been able to really because I'm so almost overwhelmed with all my other stuff. Of course, I could always stay up late and hardly function during school, but what use would that be? I wouldn't learn anything and I would be behaving rather rudely. And I'm broke, so I can't buy coffee... Ugh. I'll figure something out...

I figured I would post a new Entry

So yeah, title says it all. This is directed towards my classmates: is anyone else having a really hard time with getting everything done? I know that I definitely have fallen behind in this class. I forgot about the reader responses that were due today, and I can't even get into the file that had the questions for the responses. I never did any of the responses for the last essay, and I apologize to my classmates, rob and ken, for that.

It seems like there just aren't enough hours in the day for me anymore. I'm going to school full time, and I have a new part time sales job(Pampered Chef) on the side now. I barely reached the active status last month, and I don't have any bookings for April yet either, which is a good thing and a bad thing, as I need the extra income, and I need to work on everything else.

I'm excited for may 12th, as that's the day I leave Boise for three weeks. I'm going on vacation to Kentucky to see and meet my boyfriend and to meet his family. I'm excited, and really anxious. I think the anxiety is from worrying about passing my classes, getting registered, and being sure to make a list of everything I will need while I am down there or headed down there.

Well, now, it's been a while!

I've been so busy with school that I haven't been able to post regularly, and or even to remember about my blog. I might start a vlog, like I attempted to do on YouTube, but it was a flop. I wish I were more creative when I was on camera, but alas, I am not. I like that word, "alas." it's a great word and serves a great purpose. Haha not really. It just makes what I'm saying or writing sound fancy.

I'm so glad that spring break is coming up, starting tomorrow for me, even though I have homework to do, as well. Couple of tests. I will be busy as usual, but not quite as busy, because I won't have classes. I get to sleep in on certain days! :)

New technology

Well, I have one essay due on Friday the 9th, that I started this morning and I have finished one page. I have more done on this paper, with a clearer direction, than I do on my essay for my intermediate expository composition class, which is due on the 13th, which is a Tuesday. So basically in a week. Anyways, I've done more of my essay for us lit that I have done on my other essay. I've done one page on my new iPad, which I won from my school, and I have emailed myself the document. So basically, I have more done on one essay that I have done on the other.

more about my essay

So I've decided to write my essay on gender biasing in the classroom.  So far, i'm not sure where i'm going with my essay, and i'm not sure how to write a research essay that's not persuasive, so this is going to be a first. I'll feel a little incomplete when i'm "done" with my essay just because there won't be a "what you can do about it" section.

Essay, Essay, Essay

This is difficult! D:

So, i've found a topic, and there's plenty of research on it, but i'm at a loss for words as to how to put it on paper. My topic: Gender biasing in the classroom.

This is going to be so difficult to start. I have my thesis sentence, but after that, i'm lost. I need to figure out how to get the words down and fast! I just started today, as i've spent most of my time playing games and thinking about what i wanted to write my essay on. I'm so, SO glad I got the topic chosen, but now to find out how to write it up!

reflections on the blogs

So we're supposed to write about writing or something to that extent, as far as i'm understanding, but i don't always feel like writing about writing, or writing about reading. However, today, while reading what we're supposed to do for this blog, i realized that i'm not making the most out of my blogs. While one is strictly write on this prompt, and this one is whatever the F you want it to be, i feel that i'm not getting the most out of them. I want a happy medium- one that has structure but not too much structure. I would like to know what i can and can't write about, but be able to write about basically anything i want.

These blogs are more of a journal that's open to the public instead of just plain old blogs. I find that rather interesting. Well i'm tired physically and mentally, and tired of homework. And it's only tuesday. BLECH!
